Pic: Se7en wants to enter the American market, Amerie (right), also wants to launch herself in South Korea, this duet could be considered a win-win situation.
Up until this point in time, it appears to me this “joint marketing” between Se7en and Amerie still tips the scale to the advantage of Amerie. I have yet to see this partnership rubbing off for Se7en in America, correct me if I am wrong! Perhaps we will know next month.

At a glance, Amerie who seemed to look like a Filipino but is a Black and Korean mix has returned to her homeland to her Korean compatriots.
Apart from often showing off her waist and large tattoo in the Korean words, earlier for her new album, Because I love It, she relied heavily on Se7en for the recording of Take Control, taking on the other singer´s popularity in Korea to her advantage.
Was the initial reaction successful? In May, Amerie performed two shows in Seoul´s AX Hall, each show had an audience of 2,000. The response was explosive.
Apart from returning to Korea for her singing career, hosting and drama were not difficult for Amerie. In 2004, she did BET station´s music program, The Station, thereafter in her movie, First Daughter, playing the role of a good friend to the wife of Tom Cruise, i.e. Katie Holmes who played the protangonist. Although the box office taking was only RM31.05 million (approx. USD 9 mil) but Amerie was only a big part casual freelance actress (i.e. supporting role), she was not responsible (for the low takings).

Warning: Only meant for diehard Se7en Fans because the whole 3.46 mins of the song there were only two still pictures of them together in the recording studio and nothing else.
In Amerie´s lengthly interview in The Mail on 14 April 2007 but not a single word about her collaboration with Se7en! Just emphasis on her as very much Korean!
