Despite having two EPs under her belt, singer/songwriter Ella Mai didn’t experience her true breakout until her third EP – 2017’s ‘Ready’ – unleashed the top 5 bop, ‘Boo’d Up.’  Since then, things have only been looking up for the Brit-born beauty as the cut’s follow-up single, ‘Trip,’ is taking a similar trip up the Hot 100’s ladder (much like its predecessor).

Now, fans awaiting more from the 23-year-old can finally get their hands on her long-awaited debut LP.  As we reported here, the self-titled project features appearances from Grammy winners Chris Brown and John Legend as well as fellow rising R&B songstress H.E.R.

Usher mysteriously teased his return earlier today and has followed through with the release of brand new project, ‘A.’

The 8-track collection, which is named after his hometown of Atlanta and was executive produced by Zaytoven, is the star’s first effort since 2016’s ‘Hard II Love’ and the first since he became embroiled in a seismic herpes scandal.

Looking to turn the tide, he serves up a set that skillfully sews his trademark brand of butter-smooth R&B with hard(er) hitting songs that place him in the thick of today’s Hip-Hop dominated climate. What’s more, he paired the project with features from fellow Atlantan star Future and more giving a nod throughout to ATL culture.

Really though, what are you waiting for? New Ush after the jump…

The trio, an unlikely pairing, hinted that they were working together back in March at Madge’s annual postOscar bash.  Now, over 6 months later, we can hear the fruit of their labor.  Listen inside:
