my friend and bandmate posted this on my facebook today, and its an utter joy. my favourite part belongs to the "hyp-man" with his chant of "hey" within the chorus, although the ventriloquist (sic?) part is pretty damn ace too.
enjoy!

When I see a post that consists of little else than "Click This, Hurry!" I usually just move on. It's rare that I get a laugh out of whatever was so epic the author couldn't bear to describe it. But something told me this time was different, and Boy Am I Glad I Clicked! Remember the Chuck E. Cheese house band? Ever wonder what it would look like singing the latest hip-hop and RnB hits? How about Usher's "Love In This Club"? Well, wonder no more - Click This, Hurry! ... MORE

Usher - Here I Stand
(Laface/Zomba, 2008)
3 out of 10 The most significant chunk of consecutive music I'm currently capable of enjoying on the new Usher album is the last 51 seconds of a song called "Appetite," produced by hitmaking Timbaland protege Danja. Regarding this part of the song, Usher: - is singing over a sparse electro backdrop with a arpeggiated synth chord progression I find pleasing - has a lovely backing vocal harmony thing going that isn't redundant,...

Millions of viewers watched Usher seamlessly weave through dance steps last night on the season finale of 'Dancing With The Stars', but that taped & edited performance didn't tell the whole story. According to People.com, Usher arrived late and threw the entire production behind schedule. Then the singer had difficulties with his performance, which spawned some diva-like behavior. "Then, while appearing to lip-synch two songs—”Yeah!” and “Love in This Club”—he fell out... MORE

Awww, just a few years ago Jay-Z was rapping about "Big Pimpin", and Usher was confessing to cheating on his girlfriend in a title track. Now the two men have a duet about settling down in marriage. Maybe this could be seen as a sign of progress for urban music.
Maybe in 5 years there will be songs about driving your kid to school in an eco-friendly hybrid vehicle. As of now, the Prius is NOT hip hop, but you never know.

Is Jay-Z being set up for disaster at Glastonbury this year? Is event organizer Michael Eavis wrong for saying Jay-Z wasn't his first choice to headline? Usher came to Jay's defense by insisting he'll give a great performance and saying Noel Gallagher was wrong. In case you forgot what Noel said, he blamed poor ticket sales for this years "poor lineup" and declared "if it aint broke, dont fix it". "If you start to break it then people aren't going to go. I'm sorry, but... MORE

J.Lo got $6 million dollars for pictures of her twins, Angie and Brad got $4 million, but Usher refuses to entertain the idea of selling photos of his kid for money. "In no way would I ever pimp out my child for money," And just to prove the little tyke isn't helping line his wallet, the R&B star posed for free with his offspring for an Essence magazine Father's Day cover. However, as Peter Gicas of E!Online points out, this free photo shoot will generate plenty of pub... MORE

It almost doesn't seem like it's been three and a half years since Usher released the mega successful Confessions LP. Since then, the once single party animal is now married with children, and some are wondering how it'll change the tone of his music. It's going to be interested how his fans will respond to him now that his new wife and baby will be waiting in the wings at every appearance and performance. Parlour: How has your marriage and fatherhood affected your mus... MORE

I tried to keep an open mind.... but I just can't bring myself to like this song. The original version of "Love In This Club" was catchy and fun, but this remix contains none of the previous qualities.
The way Lil Wayne is thrown on the end seems really out of place.

This is not to be confused with the video of the kid on YouTube re-creating this beat in 20 seconds (take that Palow). This is the high budget version featuring Young Jeezy.
I love the song, but the vid is ultimately forgettable.

Some random kid on YouTube posted a video detailing how Usher's new song was made by default/preset sounds in Apple's "Garage Band" music program. The bulk of the track was recreated in about 20 seconds.. check it out below.
"Love In This Club" was produced by Palow Da Don, and reached #1 two weeks ago before being dethroned by Mariah Carey. Who knows how much Palow charged Usher for this...
and in case you want to hear the full Usher song, here it is.

Usher's latest single "Love In This Club" recently made history by jumping from number 51 to number 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. His 50 spot leap knocked off Flo-Rida's "Low" which has held down the top slot for what seems like forever. A HUGE credit for the success of this song has to go to the producer, Palow Da Don, who broke all kinds of rules to see his vision come to life. First Palow put rapper Young Jeezy on the song without asking Usher's permission, then Pal... MORE

Two new tracks from Usher's yet-to-be-titled new album. The album has no firm release date, but the label has started sending out "Love In The Club" to radio. While it's safe to assume the wheels have been set into motion to gear up for a release, you never know these days.
Unlike the lead single, "Moving Mountains" and "I can't Win" are slow tempo songs.... enjoy.

Over the past few months, several unmixed and unmastered Usher tracks have been leaked to the internet. Almost all of the songs were originally intended to appear on Usher's new album, which has been delayed time and time again for various reasons. The latest song to grow legs and walk out of the studio was called "Love In The Club", and the songs producer Polow Da Don, fessed up to putting the track online.
"I actually leaked it. I'm the culprit," he said nonchalantly. "I... MORE
