Preparing for the upcoming release of his ‘Raymond vs. Raymond’ album, new material has surfaced from the Usher. The piano-driven ‘Foolin’ Around’ was co-written and produced by Jermaine Dupri and Brian Cox. ‘Raymond vs. Raymond’ hits stores on March 1st.
The typical Cox/Dupri affair, Usher delivers his swift lyrics over the piano melody with prowess. However, the composition sounds strikingly similar to Mariah Carey’s ‘I Stay In Love’, framed around the previous Usher hit, ‘Burn’. Furthermore, the vocals at the end are strained at best. Hopefully this will be included only as an album filler because Usher is certainly capable of a lot better.
not bad, i like it
Love it he’s slowing gaining his spot back!
Hmm are you sure this is for Raymond vs. Raymond..Because I watch Jermaine Dupri’s vlog(Lifers Stand Up!!) and they had a little clip of Usher in the booth putting down the spoken word part of this track, but that was a long ass time ago. Either way, I’m digging it.
How Usher got his Confessions back!
I can dig it….
poor usher…. we get our blessing from 1) god 2) parents. I hope he has learned something.
