USHER MAKES IT RAIN…

usher.jpg

Although this isn’t what I expected, Usher is letting you know that he’s coming back in a big way. Not only did he completely son Omarion on the official Clutch Remix of “Icebox,” but he has been randomly kind of gutter on the last couple of tracks I’ve heard him on. Now what everyone is wondering is whether or not he will be able to top the success of what some people call the masterpiece of his career, “Confessions.” But now that the newly engaged Usher has wrapped up his business ventures, and finished (for the time being) dabbling a bit in the world of film and theatre, he is returning to the studio and getting back with his first love, music. And even though I’ve never been a huge fan, I cannot deny that he is a talented performer. So we’ll see what heat Usher’s got cooked up for us in the oven. ‘Cause this snippet’s just a tease…

  9. Lashonda

    perhaps this is a really dumb question but what do all these songs mean when they talk bout making it rain?am i correct in guessing this is about a skeet shower?thats what i think it is but then i’m not too sure cos that would be disgusting & shocking as hell for such high profile stars to sing about that. someone please clarify for me

  10. He’s talented, yet something about him irks me.

  11. T

    Is anyone else besides me disturbed by the big hairy man hand on the left side of the pic???

  12. Bubbles

    lmao @ # 12
    Didn’t even notice the male hand – Usher doesn’t seem to mind though

  13. Damn! He’s coming back hard! True R&B returning????
    Let’s hope so.

  14. chulo

    ^^^^ “get it on the floor shorty, get it on the floor shorty, get down on your knees” I guess that’s when he’s gonna make it rain?

  18. limaria

    i like it. but its not GREAT or anything.

  19. soulsista

    I can’t wait for his album to drop.

  20. stupidwhore

    SUCKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKS!! Go away Usher, Chris Brown is better!

  21. Nik

    #9 – “making it rain” in the club means to throw money in the air and watch it fall.

    i don’t like the song i hope he comes with something better.

  22. stupidwhore

    Brian you are wrong. Omarion was better on Ice Box than Ushers annoying ass

  23. I LIKE USHER AND HE LOOKS GREAT ON THAT PIC, CAN’T WAIT FOR HIS NEW RELEASE……MUSIC.

  24. G'

    I can’t wait for Usher. HE sounds great and the song is nice for a tease. I am actually excited and I’ve never been one to wait on a Usher release but after enduring Justin Timberlake I can’t wait for Usher to show him how it’s REALLY done.

  25. darkandbeauitiful

    Thank God usher is back and he is going to knock smug JT of his pseudo throne.

  26. LeeANAL

    Like the song and how he left us hanging at the end.

  27. Justin has never been a threat to Usher. The record sales, vocals, dancing and stage presence speak for themselves.

  28. darkandbeauitiful

    @@@ chante, i agree with u but itz just that smug justin is everywhere at the moment and itz annoying me the way people are crowning him price of RnB when he aint he is pop.

  29. He’s talented but something about him irks me.

  30. caff

    Shiddd. He sonned O on that remix?

    O_o GTFOH. Usher part was weak on that jawn.

  31. T2

    USHER IS NOT THAT HOT SORRY !!!!

    ^ Chante, there was a article about Justin in some magazine. He said he hated doing pop, and he tries so hard to be an R&B and soul artist. I just laughed at this fool. He needs to stick with that pop crap, because that’s what made him. Soul singer, NEVER!

  33. Truthie

    people need to get off ushers dick. i’m an usher raymond fan but i aint riding on his shit like some of y’all. Usher’s part on the remix of Icebox was str8 up WACK & made the song worse. This new song aint nothin special either. He gonna have to step up his game big time if he’s going to live up to the reputation he already built for himself. I love the way some of y’all don’t even know what making it rain means. check out the Make it Rain remix w. R.KELLY-if that don’t give u a clue i dont know what will.skeet skeet

  34. new yorker

    @30
    actually he was crowned king of pop which he hates. he considers himself r&b but he better watch out, cuz usher’s back. heyyy

  35. new yorker

    i forgot to add that i didn’t like the song but i have faith that he will come out w/something better

  36. dee

    It’s sounds like something i’ve heard before. He needs to go back to the lab and be little more creative.

  37. Mel

    Iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight My Ushy is BACK dats what i’m talkin bout…GO USH!

    USH#1FAN_MEL

  38. SHIT, i guess… & yeah, that hairy man’s hand.. ??

  39. making it rain is throwing money in the air. guys that go to strip clubs throw money in the air so much that it looks like its raining money. thats what make it rain means…..other than that im feeling this new Usher song. its tight

  40. t dot stand up

    its…okay.
    kinda weak though.
    he’s gonna have to come stronger, or dont come AT ALL..
    focus on the wedding boo.

  41. 35, King of Pop? Who made him that?
    Micheal is the only King of Pop!
    As for being an r&b artist, he will have to go up against Usher and Robin Thick, and many others to EVER be an soul artist.

  42. Ninagirl1

    Usher was always one of my favorites. Wish him well on his comeback. I kno he got it in him to hang with the big dogs.

  43. Jenny

    MJ is the king of pop…..as for this song why does it seem like when some artist make it big they tend to slack off in the creativity department??

    Beyonce…JayZ…50cent…Usher?

    It’s like at a certain point they figure no matter how weak their material is fans will buy it…

    :advice 2 Usher

    Go back into the studio and work it out!

  44. Steeve

    That joint is off tha hook!! I’m looking forward to hearing the full version!! Can’t wait til the actual King of R&B comes back!!

  45. ms_mac

    You’re right #11.
    Um, wouldn’t it make more sense to have the guy straightening out his tie (a clothier maybe) and the girl hand ripping his clothes off? On the other hand, it’s Usher so I think they got it right.

  46. Temp

    About the man’s hand on the left I think this picture is from his “In the Mix” days.

  47. @ #11….that picture was taken from the promo pics for his movie In The Mix….those are the hands of his co-stars…you need to know the story of the movie to understand it.

    Anyway, I didn’t get a chance to listen to this song, but by looking at most of the responses, he is sure coming back with a bang. Looking forward to it…..I’m going to watch his Truth tour DVD now.

  48. David

    If you don’t think Usher sonned O on that remix, you’re playin yourself.

    O sounded like a COMPUTER the entire time. You know that garbage nigga can’t sing worth a damn. Usher came on that shit with REAL vocals. Get it straight.

  49. Ani

    I LOVE USHER!!! But this song sucks!!! I hope he doesn’t expect this to knock Confessions out the box. Yuck & try again Babe!!! XO

  50. redvelvet1

    Lol at #9… Yes, why is everyone trying to make it rain??? Some of these negros need for things to dry up with all of the trouble they have been getting into lately, lol

  51. WilliamH

    I HOPE YOU DIE OF FACE BLEACH POISONING LASHONDA. EVERY COMMENT YOU MAKE IS SO IGNORANT. I BET YOU ARE SOME IGNORANT GHETTO TRASH SQUATTING IN A GUTTER SOMEWHERE IN THE PROJECTS TYPING YOUR COMMENTS ON A STOLEN LAPTOP. I DONT EVEN KNOW YOU BUT YOUR COMMENTS MAKE ME SO MAD I WISH I COULD STAB YOU TO DEATH

  52. Lisa

    It’s all opinion if Brian thinks Usher owned Omarion than that is his opinion damn some of ya’ll need to get a life.

  53. Lisa

    IMO this song is nothing like what he use to sing.

    Michael Jackson sings Pop and Beyonce and they’re both Black so your race has nothing to do with what type of music you sing.

  54. jscene

    JUST WHAT WE NEED, MORE BULLSHIT MUSIC! This track is the same ole garbage we been hearing. NEXTTTTTTT!!!!

  55. Krysi same one

    oooooooooooooooooooooooooh shit now! I guess its on and popping this summer. Do da damn thang DEN! (bunch of slang for, “I can’t wait to hear the album.”)

  56. J.Marie

    I love me some Usher (reminiscing about meeting him on the Truth Tour, D.C.). I can’t wait for his album to drop and I will be 1rst in line when tour tickets go on sale. This song is hot, although I must say I think Usher can do a little better than this. And yes, that Icebox remix is FIYAH!!!!!!! thanx to Usher.

  57. Woode29

    Revenge of the Ninja Turtles..

  58. Oh Lawd! Even the R&B songs are talking about making it rain. That’s it. I’m banning all music except Tupac and Gospel.

  59. LMAO @ Ms. Mac, you wrong for that one! True….but wrong.

    I cosign with Caff and Truthie. Usher f^ked my song Icebox up.
