The homie Kevin Mega dropped this one on me last night. I got a soft spot for the girl, but apparently I missed this new cut. Once again, the “formula” works well for Amerie: hard ass break + slightly odd, common samples (mostly stabs) = banger (repeat). If this is again Rich Harrison (anyone confirm?), you can’t knock the man’s game. The One Thing flip was crazy nice, and Love’s Off The Chain was a throwback to loop rockin’. Though production wise not too groundbreaking here, Hate 2 Love U again working that formula to great result.

Amerie - Hate 2 Love U

SOUNDS GOOD WITH
i don’t like to sample spot too much, but it’s not like this is a deep one - and the OG is a classic.
