Usher – Stay Down (full) – listen
Usher material has been leaking left and right since his “buzz single,” “Papers” released a little while back. His sixth studio album, Raymond vs. Raymond, was originally slated to drop at the end of the year, but has moved back to March 1st, 2010, which may be for the best, considering all the leaks from Bangladesh and RedOne from these sessions. “Stay Down” was tagged as being produced by Nate “Danjahandz” Hill, but it’s also rumored that this track may be from his Here I Stand sessions.
Tiffany Evans – What’s Your Name (full) – listen
Tiffany was originally supposed to release her sophomore album, originally titled Ponytail Krush sometime this year, but a single never was presented to the masses. But it seems as though Tiffany has retooled the album, now titling it Ms. Tiffany, with a release sometime in 2010. Check out “What’s Your Name,” produced by Hit Boy for Surf Club, and written by newcomer, Siiren. I actually really like this song, it sounds like a great album opener.
Golf Digest is definitely getting a lot of free press with their latest cover for January 2010 which features President Obama and Tiger Woods on the green and the title for the story, “10 Tips Obama Can Take from Tiger.” The issue went to press before the Woods scandal hit the media outlets.
With Tiger Woods’ recent PR troubles with his careless driving accident and discovered affairs, and Mr. Obama with a full plate of health care and war issues, neither man needs the extra attention, and the President certainly doesn’t need the association in the public’s mind.
Personally, I’m over hearing about Tiger’s indiscretions. He’s not the first and sure as hell won’t be the last.
