It’s always been a mystery why Amerie hasn’t been more successful. With tunes like One Thing, Gotta Work, and Take Control, she’s an R&B artist who should be swimming in record sales right now.

Good times might be on the horizon though - after splitting with her former label, Columbia, earlier in the year, Amerie has recently signed with Def Jam.

Word on the street is that she’s already hard at work in the studio, although there is the small matter of her 2007 album Because I Love It, which was never actually released in the USA.

We can’t help but wonder if Amerie will get better support and promotion from Def Jam. She’s already released some great tunes in her career, but seems to have suffered from being marketed as a Beyonce clone rather than a pretty hot (in both senses of the word) R&B artist in her own right.

Of course, we won’t complain too much if she continues to run around in her pants in the music videos…
