R&B artist Usher is preparing for the release of his highly anticipated album, tentatively entitled ‘Raymond vs. Raymond’. One of the tracks emerging from the ‘Papers’ singer’s recent studio sessions is the Danja-produced ‘Stay Down’. Usher’s LP is reportedly slated for a March 1st 2010 release after a slew of delays.
This is a great track for those fans who appreciate Usher’s dance-oriented material. Danja provided a tight play on the 80′s Pop melodies and combined it seamlessly with contemporary Urban beats. I expect Usher’s album to be framed around similar elements, especially given the direction that many of today’s artists such as Chris Brown, Lady GaGa and the Black Eyed Peas, have gone with their most recent material. Great stuff.

This is a great track, easily the best I’ve heard off his forthcoming album. If the rest of Raymond vs. Raymond is anything like this, I’m sure it will sell more than expected. The lyrics are catchy, the beat is great, and it has a good hook. Great job Usher and Danja

Since when is it a compliment saying that its good to use one thing just because the other ones are using it? This is why talent and inovation are dying, these fuckers just want to follow the trends, and the music industry is dying because of people like you
