Chris Brown may not have the most pleasant documented history with fellow R&B superstar Usher, but that didn’t stop him from toasting the legacy of his ‘New Flame‘ co-star with the new song ‘It Depends.’

The amply teased cut – bolstered by a prominent sample of Ush’s classic ‘Nice & Slow’ – features vocals from GRAMMY-nominated rapper-singer Bryson Tiller.

“You bad as hell, I treat you well, I will / It’s good, I can tell, come give me hell, come here / Your fairytale, under your spell, I am,” sings Brown over the RIOTUSA-produced chorus.

The follow-up to Brown’s latest single ‘Holy Blindfold,’ ‘Depends’ – the newest of many collaborations he’s had with Tiller over the years – only heightens anticipation for what’s believed to be the successor to the R&B bad boy’s 2023-released album ’11:11.’
