The first single from Amerie’s new album has surfaced. It’s called “Gotta Work” and has a “1 Thing” / “Take Control” vibe. Even though Amerie has said she did not work with Rich Harrison on this album, the sound is very reminiscent of Harrison’s work. Amerie’s album, Because I Love It, is due out this summer and will feature production by Cee-Lo, DJ Premier, The Inkredibles, Bryan-Michael Cox, Mike Caren, The Buchanans, and Bink.
