Just finished this up.....





Yeah, this ain't it Usher! This shyt had no flow to it, just all over the place. From a fast song, slow, pop, reagge, dance.....Who was the a&r on this project! Even the "r&b" didn't feel like authentic r&b. Idk how to properly assess this album..its okay, just ended up being what I feared it'll be. A lot of chasing different demographics. Instead of giving that real shyt we knew usher to give. To think CB is more in his bag than bruh it crazy. Thank goodness for these other young r&b cats giving us that real shyt.
I really thought a-town girl would sound a certain way and was surprised when I hit play lol.

He played nothing but FIRE 🔥 during those Instagram live sessions with JD during COVID lockdowns, gets everyone all hype because the songs were heat and sounding like vintage Usher, then he turns around and puts NONE of those songs on his big comeback album before the biggest performance of his life :wtf: :dahell:

Usher should’ve known better with all his years in the game. The people around him should’ve known and guided him better than to put out this bubble gum, pop trash. These two songs he played on the live right here sound better than anything on this weedplate, and he leaves them off the fukkin album. Smh.

He has made some strange decisions over the last few years with his music. From the song selections to dropping singles with no lead up to albums, just seems all over the place.

Some very good songs on here, some misses also but he must have a crazy vault at this point.

Bro... Usher... you my guy. I been a fan since 1998. But my guy, you don't have to experiment. You don't have to do this. Realize that this is your chance to be the legend that you truly are. We your fans want you to get back to the producers who made you a star. Dupri, Pharrell, hell Lil Jon.

Usher holding on to heat but releasing garbage. disappointing

Oh well, Ye Ali put out an EP, i'm sure that's more what I'm looking for R&B wise
