NEW MUSIC: USHER - “PAPERS” + ALBUM NEWS

Monday, October 5, 2009


♫ Usher - Papers
ALTERNATE LINK

R&B crooner Usher just released his last album, Here I Stand last year but is already ready to put on his sixth studio album. The first to leak of the material is the much anticipated, “Papers,” written and produced by Sean Garrett and Zaytoven.

The new album, tentatively titled Raymond vs. Raymond (it was originally announced that the new album would be titled Monster), is set to release December 8th, via LaFace/Jive Records. On the album, Usher is collaborating with Jermaine Dupri, Ester Dean, Jay-Z, Anthony Hamilton, Pharrell Williams and Adam Levine, just to name a few.

Very much different from Usher’s last effort, he’s told People Mag that the forthcoming album will be “racy, risky and edgy and sometimes about personal experiences.” And it’s no wonder, “Papers” was written months before Usher announced that he was filing for divorce.

Y’all sound like a bunch of hypocrites. How you gonna talk about the man’s ex wife because you knew that there was “something wrong with her”, hope and prays that he gets a divorce, and then get mad because you think he pimped his divorce for record sells?

If I was a celeb I would do the same thing, you in my business and I can make money off of it, why in the hell NOT? I KNOW THAT IS WHAT GOES TROUGH THE HEADS OF MOST OF EM SOMETIMES. Face it all celebs pull publicity stunts to sell records these days, its the easiest way to get in your pocket. And their ransom stories stays in blogs so that you can do just that.

Rihanna gonna go trazupale platinum when her record comes out , because people are excited to see her walk her a** down a street.

NICE SONG THOUGH!

Its a nice song. I belive this is just a leak to get people’s attention. This is not the first official single. ITs only a matter of time before we get that single thats uptempo that makes us wanna two step, lol. Lets all try to be positive instead of being negative. Let’s support our black artists and stars especially if they are showing true talents.

I have no problems with Trey Songz, Jeremih, Chris Breezy, or who ever, but we have to remember that Ursh has been in the game since an early teen and as we grow older so does our music. We all have to progress in life and what was hot in 96 or 04 wont be hot now. Also remember that none of the artists above have accomplished what he has. Trey Songz is talented but we’re giving the guy too much credit right now. He too has to pay his dues. He has had three albums and the first two weren’t the success that people are making it. To be a great artists its your ALBUMS that need to be great not your mixtapes!!! And honestly how many of you all really like Jeremih’s latest single???…RIGHT!! Instead of writing someone off give them a chance. We’re so quick to see what Chris Brown is going to do and we are secertly pulling for him despite molly whooping rhi rhi, but ursh marrys someone that no one approved and he’s washed up??? No faith for you BANDWAGONERS!!!

Good song Ursh! Keep up the good work.

63. Chanizzle, every dog knows it takes two dogs to fight. So, let’s not waste time over “fault”.

Marriage can change people for better or worse. The marriage vow only says that you will remain in the marriage…better or worse…until death do you part. There’s no vow for getting rich or poor. The vow only states that you stay together…irregardless of the situation. Everything Usher sighted was a situation and most of them, he caused. No one is sick! No one is poor! But, everything seems worse in his eyes, because he has to come home after he’s been cheating to a drunk wife…or he gets drunk to put up with her!

You are the one making a judgement call, because I haven’t giving anyone a pass. Its just that I’ve only heard his side of the story, so therefore, I know his rap is weak. When he admitted that he was messing around on her and she complained…the fight was on. That’s scenerio is easy to judge! I know who’s fault that was. When he married her and cried for his momma…I know who to blame. Don’t play the “judgement” card.

And, if you’re interested in my status, you could learn more by showing some respect. I don’t entertain questions from a hostile request.

People are actually praising this mess? Once again small minded individuals.. The song is OK! But have you people listened to the lyrics…. He turned his back on his friends to become someone/something he wasn’t. What? A husband? A father? WEAK WEAK WEAK ASS DUDE! And then to make a song about it….. Unlike Confessions…. There are kids involved in this breakup… What a why to sell your soul…ooops I mean records!

74. ThaTruth, I agree with everything you say, except one thing…! When you said you “would do the same thing”. That’s were you left me! There is a bit of wisdom that ask a simple question: “What does it profit a man if he gains the whole world and loses his soul”. All money ain’t good money. And, If you were a celeb, I hope you would know that your gifts are sufficent to carry you through. Most artist with a greedy hook, don’t last. Rewrite your statement so that you don’t sound like you’ll do anything for money.

76. Wow, chill. Last time I checked we were both allowed opinions, didn’t mean to offend anyone. I totally understand what you’re saying but I just think if that’s what he wanted to do then that’s on him, not us. I personally don’t really care about your status, it was just to make a point. I’m done here, but you sound very educated and I think that if we knew each other there would never be a dull moment because we both stand our ground :-)

song is hot. Love it!!!! Everybody knows what it is about. Who cares? Everybody know they sitting back waiting to see what his next cd will be about. If he don’t reference the divorce, people will talk about that. If he do people will talk about that. Most people knew that marriage had issues when it started. So, why everybody gonna try and front now. He moving on. So, go ahead Ush. Do you. Thats what you do on every cd.

75. chattlove, I feel your emotion, but I would rather see fans aline themselves with artist who stand for something positive. Not divorce and abuse. I would’nt follow Usher or Chris just because they can sang anymore than I would follow R. Kelly. If I know an artist is a woman beater or pedophile, I would care if they were a “true talent” as you call them or if they were blacker than Goodyear tires…it wouldn’t matter. Usher is playing with something that he should have cherished for a life time. He doesn’t need a captivated audience or allegiance from young married couples. Rather than saying “Papers”, he could have just as easily said Screw-it!

I’m not cutting Usher any slack just yet. He almost cost that crazy woman, her life. The Ushers and Matthews need correction just like you and I do. Fathering children and stranding others is the number one problem in the blommunity.

Usher’s sound is becoming quite repetitive and lacks diversity.

With that said, I’m not pleased wit how he’s exploiting his failed relationships through his music. It’s almost as if the point of the relationship is and was to make a song off of how it didn’t work out (Confessions, remember?) with hopes it’ll make him $$.

Sad, Raymond. Sad, Raymond.

79. Chanizzle, being educated has nothing to do with this discussion. Usher knows right from wrong just like I’m sure you do to. We can’t keep runnihg to our mommas everytime we mess up or mispell a word. I know “Blommunity” is not a word, but irregardless, you know what I mean. Matthew certaintly knows what he’s doing. Maybe he’s in middle-age crisis and Usher’s just a young fool! But, the two of them are having a profound effect on the Blommunity. They’re reckless or “irreckless” if you nasty! Some of these comments are not about opinion. Having children out of wedlock and divorce are major issues facing all of us! We all suffer. Just look at Kate and Jon, the Octomom and the Browns!

WTF ARE MEAT AND CHAZNILLE (OR WTFEVER) ARGUING ABOUT?

Damn, it is not that serious. Meat… there are a ton of artists promoting a bunch of other sinful things that are frowned upon but are you bitching about that too? I hope you aren’t bobbing your head to Jamie’s Blame it on the Alcohol.. Hell, we get served up sex, drugs, and violence, sodomy and then some, but I bet you are still listening to that since you are on a site which is popularized by those very people who make that music right? SMH. Point being, STFD. Dang. I’m mad people in here acting like they were sitting in dude’s living room or in bed with he and Tameka (ILLL LOL) to know what the hell he OR she did. That’s the problem right there… people need to simply: (in the words of Will Smith ala Fresh Prince) MIND YA BIDNESS.. JUST MIIIIND YA BIDNESS lmfao.

Monday, October 5, 2009 /

87. mo betta, I feel you, its one thing to “confess” to a girlfriend or someone passing. Its quite another level when you start airing dirty laundry from the marriage. Again, look at Kate and Jon.

Usher would have sounded just as good singing about “Counciling” rather than “Papers”. Everyone knows Ushers still has it. Most of the great artist don’t lose it until they get in their 50s or sooner if they use too much drugs like Whitney. Usher is one of the great ones, but now he has one strike.

Tameka could have been the reason why he would made it to 50 and still have his chops. With his “Papers” in hand, he’s now free to party all night and lay down without guilt with anything that moves. Luther, Gerald and Michael all checked out early because there was no one there to keep them from the fast life.

I digressed.

Wrong! I do listen to the samples on CL, but rarely do I purchase rap and R&B. I prefer gospel. I hold people like Usher and Beyonce to a higher standard than those rappers with GEDs. When either falls short or sells-out, I comment. My only point to CHAZNILLE is that the song is about Usher airing Tamekas dirty laundry along with his own. He should have did another confession. He reminds me of Whitney when she went on Oprah to bash Bobby. I don’t mind him taking responsibility, but don’t blame Tameka when all the time he was the butterfly! Now, he acting like he so proud cause he discovered the “Papers”.

@70 THANK YOU, Raymond vs Raymond refers not to an alter-ago but the divorce proceedings., Usher Raymond vs Tameka Raymond…

I don’t even know why yall are suprised, the man is known for this, singing about his personal problems and always coming off as the misunderstood victim. Have you listened to “Confessions (1 &2)”? The man basically said “yeah, I cheated” and because he sounded good and the music was good, nobody cared about the person that was cheated on (Chilli)… Same thing here!

@MEAT..

So do you go onto every post about Beyonce’ where she is performing or singing and talk about her serving up sex? Seriously, it’s entertainment. It’s art. And art is controversial. Art imitates life, life imitates art. I can understand what you’re saying perfectly fine. I dig it. I also understand that music/art/books are normally autobiographical. I mean what’s the difference between this song and Maya Angelou “airing out” her dirty laundry with her brother molesting her in her book. Or Oprah doing the same? That was their way of dealing with their pain. Or any other autobiographical book in which they air out “their dirty laundry” and the participants who were involved in it. You don’t know the ins and outs of Usher’s relationship with Tameka. Not saying he was not in part to blame — should’ve made better choices and conducted himself better — but again, you don’t know the situation. So maybe he was depressed & had a hard time with the marriage just like Tameka did… Tameka handled her depression & then some by lashing out at blogs all of the time… he handled his thru music. She is profiting from this as much as he is b/c oops guess what? People are still talking about her, and that seems to be (my perception not saying it’s fact) what she wanted all along. @ the end of the day, all artists do the same. It’s just that they are smart enough (unlike him) or lucky enough that they don’t have blogs/gossip sites posting that crap, digging into their relationship so that we the public know exactly who it’s about.

109.

ThaTruth

Monday, October 5, 2009 /

@MEAT. Having a song that lyrics are similar to my life does not mean that that was in fact MY LIFE. However, if people were into my business as they are always Usher’s, then I feel like why not?

Who’s business is it that he got married and divorced?…….It was his until the media jumped in it. So, this has absolutely nothing to do with selling your soul for money. A lot of artists do get inspiration from their past relationships to make music, and for all we know ‘papers’ could possibly not correlate that strongly to his life.

Most things that these celebrities do are gimmicks. The blogs just posted a song that SEEMS similar to his life, so people are interested. Then we have people, such as you and I, putting out our opinions. Meanwhile, Usher’s song is being marketed not only by the blog that we are on but by you and I as well. Guess what though? You and I aren’t even getting paid for it, lol.

Lyrics are dope, dont really like the track, but it works congrats to zaytoven, and Sean you really showed growth on this. Very diffrent from the other arrangements that you’ve used for the last couple of years.
This song is dope and if they push it right, its going to be GONE.

And by the way, hell no, i’m not buying your gimmicky album, no matter how much of your private business you are willing to expose for a penny; yet when people were trying to save you for this disaster, you yelled it was your life, and we needed to mind our own business.

I seen a comment on Sandra Rose that makes alot of sense it sounds like the real deal story of Tameka and Usher marraige.. usher RAYMOND VS tameka RAYMOND…

This marriage was over from the start, him and Tameka made an agreement about their marriage. For one Usher is gay, however he has always wanted kids. Tameka knows/ knew his secret so they came up with a marketing plan. The agreement was to get married and have 2 kids then it was agreed upon after 2 years they would get a divorce; that he would release an album about it. (See if you can locate their prenup)… Anyway Tameka is going to be splitting the profit from CD sells etc with usher 50/50 as long as she keeps her mouth close about the agreement. This is just the beginning they are going to come out to the public about (THE LIE) why their relationship didn’t work out. That’s why they are not talking about it to the public. They are currently in negotiations with certain NETWORKS/ MEDIA outlets on exclusives to the story. Nevertheless it’s not going to be as juicy as you may think, because they both agreed not to make the other party look bad because of their kids etc. I’m tired of typing… You’ll see soon though. Stay Tune

Usher’s sound is becoming quite repetitive and lacks diversity.

I’m not really talking to whoever posted that, but I think it’s what a lot of people are thinking.

Well, guess what, he something different on the last album and every dismissed it saying they wanted to hear 8701/Confessions type stuff

He has a formula. If it’s not broken, don’t fix it . Either way, he’ll, or any other artist for that matter will never win. We say go back to their roots, then they day, and we complain about them sounding the same, not evolving etc, but yet, when they change their style, it’s wackkk.

@22, 37, and whoever else

When you “evolve”, you are changing from one creature to another. “Evolution” does not necessarily entail “improvement”, because improvement is relative. Same thing with the concept of “A Different Me”. It’s about embracing another entity that has taken over command of their psyche and spirit. It’s essentially based off of these artists’ belief in the occult, particularly that cabbala.

Maaaaannnnnn…. I’m laughing at these cats talking bout he making moeny off Tameka….
I mean come on …REALLY?
WTF can she make him but miserable? Obviously… They may be happier now….
It’s his bizness 2 tell, better he address it b-4 the blogs, website & other outlets do. I really don’t care for the song too greatly, but to call him tacky, washed up & all this other crap is crazy….
U CAN not like a song & think that an artist can do better, that’s fine….but it’s a thin line between stating an opinion & hating…
Most of the stuff being said is hating…
I didn’t care for “Yeah” when I first heard it…but it went #1….
Yeah Usher could have taken the high road, but he’s human…who on here has been in a relationship?????
Okay who on here after a break up didnt have their own out take on that other person whether good or bad?
90% of yall hated on their relatioship from jump!
Now ya’ll mad because he went threw it & wanna talk about it?
I agree, he could be talking about counseling…but that would make him fake, that didnt really happen so why front?
I rather him be real, brutal or not & keep it moving…
Hear some more of his stuff b-4 U write him off as a has been…
I mean this the same dude that went DIAMOND (10 Million) off one album…15 million to date…more than all your favorite relevant male singers….

….By the way…every CD he’s done he’s talked about his personal dating….
(Usher-”Think of you”….MY Way- “You make me wanna”…8701 “U got it bad”… Confessions-THE WHOLE ALBUM…Here I stand-”Moving Mountains”, “Before I met you”…Now, (Maybe) Raymond Vs. Raymond (a play on his VERY public divorce), “Papers”… which may not even make the album)…

Come on people get a grip…
acting like ya’ll musically conscious, if yall really were the radio air-waves would be a whole lot better…

Typical Usher, but its ok. I’m getting annoyed by the “fast singing” that he does. But I guess that’s his signature sound. I wish him the best because I did like his last cd….I have faith that he will a hot track.

THIS SONG IS REALLY POWERFUL. ITS FUNNY HOW ALL OF A SUDDEN U WANT TO BE PUBLIC ABOUT HIM AND THE TAMEKA SITUATION. I THINK USHER IS WEAK FOR THIS SONG BECAUSE HE ALLOWED THE MEDIA AND BLOGS TO CORRUPT HIM. INSTEAD OF PROVING THE MEDIA WRONG HE GOT PULLED IN. ALTHOUGH HE IS A GOOD FATHER I WOULD THINK HE WOULD WANT BETTER FOR HIS SONS AND SHOW THEM THE TRUE MEANING OF A HAPPY FAMILY. INSTEAD OF WORKING THINGS OUT HE CALLS IT QUITS. AS A MAN, HE SHOULD HAVE NEVER WRITTEN A SONG LIKE THIS BECAUSE TAMEKA IS THE MOTHER OF HIS KIDS AND DOWN THE LINE HIS SONS GONNA HEAR THIS. ALL OF THESE ISSUES SHOULD HAVE BEEN LEFT PRIVATE LIKE THEY ONCE WAS IN THE PAST. PERSONALLY, I THINK IT IS A LOW BLOW. HAVE RESPECT FOR THE MOTHER OF YOUR KIDS. EVEN AS OF TODAY TAMEKA SAYS NOTHING BUT GOOD THINGS ABOUT HIM OR NOTHING AT ALL. HE SHOULD BE MORE OF A MAN AND DO THE SAME. JUST SHOWS HOW THE MEDIA CAN DESTROY A MARRIAGE….

Some of these comments are funny too me! Chris Brown’s Transform ya is a way better track then this old man’s song crying out to make people feel sorry for him AGAIN!!!! Now i understand that Usher was hot back in the day but forreal every song he releases is the same ish! I can relate to his lyrics but im tired of him putting his business in the streets! Man up dude!!! Take care of your kids and stop tryin to make people feel sorry for you for stupid decisions you did to yourself! There is no explanation why he treated his momma like crap for a woman with 4 kids already! Now he is paying for it because he lost touch with his family friends and fans! Sorry but when this cd release i think ill pass like the last one!!!

“I’m not a hater or I’m not hating …..

If you’re not doing it then why state that u aren’t ?? Nobody is accusing you..

Well not yet…lol

Hold on Kid…

Usher is not washed up. Comparing him to Jerimiah…LOL you must be on dog food. Trey Songz is hot, he is one of my favs and he will soon be on Usher’s level; however he still has some work to do.

So please don’t trip…

I like it. Big thumbs up to Usher for giving us grown folks music. I agree with another poster, Jay Z will be forty years old in December, and he is still dressing, acting and rapping like he is a nineteen year old kid.
