Usher – The Painter (full) – listen
My e-mail was being lit up about this song from Usher, so I had to see what all the hype was about. Usher, according to his cameo in the “Same Girl” video with R. Kelly was supposed to be dropping a new album in November. Guess what month it is? Then news sprung of Usher being kept on a short leash – no album for him, just spending time with his wife, because he has a child on the way. But here’s new material. I think I know what it is – Usher is a little afraid. How is he going to top what he did with Confessions?
Alicia Keys feat. Kanye West – No One (Remix) (full) – listen
Another “No One” remix – and I’m not even mad. I love Kanye’s verse, it’s so much fun. Like I said, I’m in love with “No One” right now, so adding Kanye to it just does it for me. I hope that all these remixes of “No One” though, don’t stop Alicia’s new single, “Like You’ll Never See Me Again” from getting spins because I am absolutely loving that song too. Make sure you go pick up Alicia’s new album, As I Am, in stores next Tuesday!
Chris Brown feat. T-Pain & Nelly – Kiss Kiss (Remix) (full) – listen
This song is fun already, but Nelly adds a playfulness to it that it I really like. I always said that a remix should improve on a song, not take away from it, and this remix does that for me. “Kiss Kiss” is #1 on the Billboard charts, and the last time I checked, it was #1 on the iTunes charts as well, and the video is getting so many spins on MTV that it’s making me sick. Maybe it’s not as much as a slump as we thought it was.
Mya – Give A Chick A Hand (full) – listen
Mya for me hasn’t delivered on Liberation, with the material that has leaked so far. However, even though “Give A Chick A Hand” isn’t the best song in the world, there’s something about it that I love. It just makes me want to bounce in my seat while it plays. As a matter of fact – I’m doing it right now. I’m not even sure what’s going on with Mya’s release date, I kind of just gave up on Liberation a while ago.
your doing a great job with these reviews but im not a big fan of the remix posts :S most of them suck anyways
usher need to go back home with his grandmother …oops i mean his wife
when kanye first came on he song i was like wtf, i sound like bad karoake,(sp?) but it did end up being funny
it*
THE MYA SONG IS IIGH
usher messed up wit his career. I love Alicia but i been played out that song i need a NEW one. chris brown_______ who cares. EVERY TIME im ready to write mya off she gives me a song like this which makes it hard for me to say forget her, just like when she gave me that song SORRY, i still listen to that song, she just aint got the right people behind her.
That Usher song is busted. If that’s what he’s going to bring, he should keep it
LOVE MYA AHVN’T HEARD THE SONG YET. FOR ANY MYA FANS OUT THERE RUMOR HAS IT THAT SHE IS BACK IN THE STUDIO WORKING ON A WHOLE NEW ALBUM TITLED SMOKE AND MIRRORS. LOVE AND I’LL ORDER LIBERATION ONLINE. LOVE YOU MYA. YOU ALWAYS HAVE MY SUPPORT.
I dont think Usher will top Confessions at all
How many times can this song “No One” Be remixed. Im really feeling her new CD though, it is HOT !
None of the songs are really great. No one has grown on me(I’ve always loved the lyrics now i’m loving the song itself all together) I ABSOLUTLY LOVE ALICIA’S ‘LIKE YOU’LL NEVER SEE ME AGAIN’, ITS SOOO BEAUTIFUL!!! NOW THAT SONGS DESERVES ALL THE RADIO PLAY IT CAN GET!!! I AINT NO FAN BUT THIS SONG IS WITH ‘IF I AINT GOT U’ AND ‘DIARY’ ITS JUST THAT HOT!!!
Mya’s song is a joke
Kiss kiss is my song, really no difference w/ nelly on it.
Usher’s song is pretty weak
Chris Brown hell yea he a sexxiiiiiiiii as paiiiiiiiiii mmmmm dam i’d tak 2 dat papi
EXACTLY he is nervous. You can see it in his face on his pics.
Usher needs to go home to wife Tameka. Even if his album was release i’m sure it’ won’t do very well and Usher is no fool, that why its been pushed back. He sees the public reaction. Noone is interested. Go home and spend time with your wife and lister to her yell behind your stupid a$$ some. Please do everyone that favor. “Confessions” only did well because of all the drama that surounded the album with Chilli. Cause people actually cared about Chilli. Noone gives a sh!t what drama him and his Ex-con wife is going through. He deserve all that she dishes out to him.IMO.
I heard Alicia’s album suppose to be hot.
Chris Brown..I won’t be on any lines waiting, but i’m still interested in what he have in store for us this time around.
Mya can’t wait to see how her music have grown through the years.
Usher needs to go back into the Lab. That didn’t make me jump up & down.
i think usher has more to offer, people be cool
i`m kind of surprised with the level of maturity of some of my peers here..what does his marriage to a “black woman“ got to do with his career? just asking….
i’m not super excited about any of these. mya’s s cool, the remix to kiss kiss is cool. my baby will love it. i really can’t stand alicia’s song no matter whose on it. usher…that was horrible. i know it will be hard to top confessions but i sincerely hope that he doesn’t think material like that will even come close to cutting it. ugh
i love the Mya song
THATS NOT USHER!!!!!!!!!!!!!
USHER LOOKS SO GAY IN THAT PIC…..WAS THAT SUPPOSE TO BE A SEXY LOOK CUZ IT AINT………ALL I HOPE FOR IS THAT HE COMES WITH SOME REAL GOOD MUSIC AND A DNA TEST ON THAT BABY…………I BET ITS 99.9 U R NOT THE DAYUM FATHER BOO…BOO!
iono if liberation is gonna see the light of day, she has smoke and mirrors 2008(the original name for moodring) on her myspace player
That doesn’t even sound like Usher in that song.
And that doesn’t sound like too much of a remix with Kanye. Sounds like he just got bored one day & decided to freestyle.
Nelly doesn’t really do too much on the track for me.
Mya’s song might have to grow on me.
What happened to the days when the remix had a different beat than the original?
mya- talk about overproduction. that shit sounds HORRIBLE!
It’s like a wannabe but bad “Girlfight”
I love the new mya cd. Even thought I had to get it on the leak. That is a really good cd. It’s sad that it might not be released here due to the first single being a flop but I heard Ridin is doing well. Not as well as they hoped but it’s a slow start. The album is suppose to come out in January of next year but according to That Grape Juice she is already working on a new album that is also suppose to be out next year. as well. Who really knows but I haven’t given up on her as an artist because this girl is really talented and it’s sad that she isn ‘t given the proper introduction that she should be given.
yeah that is not usher singing that song…it doesnt even sound like him…come on i mean seriously…Ushers voice sounds way better than that…Ushers voice is rich n sexy…this is somebody who is tryin too hard. n that song sux too.
Comment # 2 LOL
out of topic…i have read on another forum that there is a petition out against beyonce who wants to remake/cover one in a million-aaliyah track and peeps aint happy about it….anything wrong wit her doin an aaliyah cover
ALICIA – ITS OK I REALLY DIDNT LIKE IT
MYA- TRY AGIAN
CHRIS BROWN -I LIKED THE REMIX
USHER -WILL NEVER GET TO THAT SUCESS HE HAD IN 2004 .. AND THE SONG IS NOT ALL THAT …TRY AGIAN !!!!!!!!!!
I STILL LOVE USHER.. I GOT IT BAD!
I agree w #17 people are more reacting to his marriage than his music anyway
That Chris Brown song is garbage! How in the hell did that make it to #1?????
We are in a sad state with music!
Ah the world is so sad
Just because people do not like the wife of usher, people are not going to buy his music anymore?!! GET A LIFE each of you. I mean, who cares, who he fucks with, if he is gay or if tameka is a man, I mean WHO CARES?? do you think ot that before you go to sleep?!! Maybe you hate the fact that he is no more single..
WHO THE FUCK YOU THINK YOU ARE TO JUDGE PEOPLE ON WHAT THEY DO ESPECIALLY WHEN IT IS NOTHING WRONG!!
TI is caught with enough guns to support the war in Irak but every body is behind him, Usher marry Tameka and everybody want him to sit down.
Everything is about IMAGE , it is so sad!!
If he was with BEE OR RIHANNA, ya ass will praise him
Usher,
i dunno about your music but do your thing cause people don’t even judge you on your music.That is why, every body tries to hook up with some celebrities for publicity, BECAUSE IT WORKS. Get a man or get a girl, stop hand sex and leave usher alone lol. And if he is gay so what?? I thought we were supposed to support each other and than we are the only race that don’t like see someone else success!! It is funny that people say that when we dislike Beyonce about HER MUSIC AND NOT HER PERSON, and EVERY BODY IS KILLING USHER JUST FOR MARRY HER GIRL. LOVE BLACK LOVE RIGHT???
GTFOH
HOW CAN YOU SAY THAT KANYE REMIX IS HOT???
GO LOOK AT EVERY HIPHOP SITE ITS BEEN POSTED.
99% SAY ITS WHACK,
LEAVE IT TO D*CKRIDNG CONCRETELOOP TO PRAISE THE SONG
KANYEF*CKINLOOP.
SMFH
Yo I’m feeling that Mya joint…finally something from the new album that actually has “Hit” potential….I’m still pumping my fist for Mya….I think she shold just start from scratch though….Much love to Mya…even though her people didn’t save me as a frined on her Myspace…lol
USHER PLEASE LET IT GO! THAT SHIT WAS WEAK, CONCENTRATE ON MAKING SURE YO OLD ASS WIFE TAKES HER DAILY 50+ VITAMINS OK!
#33, I feel you. You don’t know how to spell Iraq, but I feel you, lol! (I’m messin wit U.)
Sorry that is the french spelling!
That’s not Usher. Sorry, it’s not his voice.
No artist out right now will be able to do better than Confessions, so no one should expect it. 15 million albums sold? Name one artist that can sell that much….
yall really mean to tell me that you cant tell that, thats NOT USHER SINGING!??? lol some fans!!!!
This doesn’t even really sound like usher to me….are we sure its him??
I’m sorry yall I think that Usher song is a fraud…I just don’t think it’s really him…we’ll see I guess…I’m a fan and that voice just ain’t soundin right…close but no cigar!
im very disappointed that anyone could think that that is usher singing. After all these years u dont know what the guy sounds like. SMH
THE SONG’S I HEARD WERE JUST COOL.
BUT THATS NOT USHER! I WONDER WHO
THE REAL ARTIST IS?
Um, Chris’ album is NOWHERE NEAR a sophomore slump. He has the #1 single in the country, his album was #2 in sales the day after release (following American Gangster), “Kiss Kiss” is still #1 on iTunes and the album is #3 on iTunes as well. So um, Breezy is making numbers AGAIN.
Usher – thumbs down
Alicia – didn’t listen hear the song & Ye everyday…no need
Chris Brown – see Alicia comment and insert T Pain where Ye is. Nelly – soso
Mya – the track is WAY TOO BUSY!
THAT MYA IS FYA!!!!!!!!!!
and Brian, if you gonna vouch for the song, vouch for the song.
dont dance around damn near apologizing for liking it in advance, just in case people say its wack.
thats fake
Mya gon do her regardless
and i see its alot of bandwagon gon on around here
all the hate on Usher due to Tameka is not right
I know its hard for yall haters to accept, but this time around, the bottom bitch got the ring so yall is just gon have to fall the fuck back and respect the muthafuckin game!!!
lol
Usher and Tameka 4ever!!!!!!!
the hood strikes again on you bitches
take dat, take dat
Haters will stop at nothing-smh
“let me get a brush”
yeah right
may the real Usher stand up
Big ups to Usher for having the courage to choose his woman for himself and not public opinion. Alicia is always on point and Chris Brown is an up-and-comer with a bullet!
Come on now people! that’s not Usher that’s Johnta Austin, and that doesen’t sound anything like him.
I’M NOT FEELIN’ THA MYA JOINT….SHE NEED’S TO COME BETTER THAN THAT !!!

I totally agree with that statement.
Some of you loopers are so hateful toward two married folks that love each other. Usher and Tameka have something many of you may not have. So you bash them like the are nothing.
I think HATERS are SECRET LOVERS of the people they talk about.
They wish they coould be or have something the other person has.
Usher is married, has a career, and a child on the way. WTF is wrong with that.
At least he’s not in jail, going to court every other day.
People come on now where are your PRIORITIES.
Go find a woman(WIFE) or a man(HUSBAND) and then you’ll see what it is to have someone. Some of you Loopers are soooo miserable.
Usher will be here and I bet the haters will still listen to his music.
As for Tameka congrats you have a good man. I ain’t mad at cha!!!!
WTF, I’m a huge ush fan, and listen to him constantly, that on the real doesn’t sound like ush, =/. Anywho, I think like someone said b4 I don’t think he’ll top confessions, but we’ll see
LOVIN DA LOVEY DOVEY KISS KISS REMIX !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
that painter song is one chance yall
I believe that the “Usher” Song is actually One Chance….
i really hate that paintbrush song…i hope that it is one chance and not usher, because that song sucks.
i’m not feeling the chris brown remix either, but i didn’t think the original was that great anyway
no one remix is ok..
i’m undecided on mya’s song.
whatever..jay z’s new album kicks all of their asses and he doesn’t even sing.
I think that Usher joint is really One Chance with Usher featuired on it cause it sounds like Usher in the beginning, but it sounds like someone else in the middle. Anyway, I hope that ain’t Usher cause that song did not move me at all…smh If Usher plans on releasing a cd soon, he’s got to come hard cause I think people are just about sick of him…. him and all his drama. I think half his fan base went down the drain
