You may remember a while back (and I do mean a while – this may be for the throwback CL’ers!), I posted a song by Le’Che Martin, of Making the Band 3 fame. She was a contestant that didn’t get to the finals, but she’s been working her way through the industry, writing and selling songs. Last summer, she collaborated with Rich Harrison and Rico Love with the song, “Get Away,” which was featured on the CL Summer Mixtape. I absolutely loved the song and fell immediately for Le’Che’s delivery. I was under the impression that the song was to be sold. However, when previewing the Amerie album, I noticed that the same Rich Harrison track had been recycled, and the lyrics changed. Immediately, I was turned off because I was so used to Le’Che’s version, however, that’s not to say that I didn’t think Amerie’s song wasn’t a good song… I was a little surprised, considering I remember reading somewhere that Amerie wouldn’t be working with Rich Harrison this time around – and technically, she didn’t, ’cause this track’s been done. Which song do you prefer?

Make sure you check out Le’Che Martin’s MySpace page, and show her some love. Tell her Brian from CL sent you. Also, Amerie’s album, “Because I Love It” is due out May 15, according to Amazon.com.

Apparently none of you have what it takes to spot out talent. Vocals are better in Leche’s version. Production is better in Amerie’s version. Why? Because it was being released on her album. Which means better Production and Engineering. Like a lot of people said, the post wasn’t asking who looks better or who’s more of a celebrity. Stick to the topic and please just be honest with yourself and get past “Celebrityism”. (I know i just made that word up… Lol) These are the reasons why music is being destroyed, because we have to look nice for people’s approval. Leche would be Amerie singing any day. Amerie is a better version of Cassie….
I think AMERIE killed it !!! She’s a good artist. The other chick held her own toom but I prefere the Amerie version better.
Amerie Iz Tha BEST!!!!! Dats All I Gotta Say!!!
