Amerie is gearing up to release her Def Jam debut album titled "In Love & War" this August. In the new record, she works with producers Teddy Riley on "Tell Me You Love Me", Sean Garrett & Eric Hudson on "Heard 'Em All", Jim Johnson & Rico Love on "Swagback" and Brian Michael Cox on "Red Eye".
Its lead single "Why R U" has been debuted on Amerie's MySpace on May 11. Already being played on New York City Hot 97 radio DJ Funk Master Flex for 15 minutes straight, the Buchanans-produced song will officially start to get radio airplays on June 15.
Prior to the song's outing in radio, its music video is scheduled to make its way out on June 8 on BET. It will be directed by Ray Kay whose credits include The-Dream's "Shawty Is a 10" and Lady GaGa's "Poker Face" music videos.
Amerie has released three studio albums before she was signed to Def Jam. In 2002, she released "All I Have" which climbed to number 9 on Billboard Hot 200. Three years later, she returned with another effort "Touch" which peaked at number 5 on the U.S. albums chart. And in 2007, she came out with "Because I Love It".
