Usher: "Love in this Club" Video Preview

Screencaps of the 30 second preview!!!

With Usher's new album dropping in June, Here I Stand, the video for "Love in this Club" is getting ready to be released. The full video will be out next Monday, April 7th. The clip shows that "Love in this Club" has a "Yeah pt. 2" vibe to it. The video clip is only 30 seconds but it shows some of Usher's on-point choreography and some sensual parts with him and Keri hilson. We were afraid that Usher wouldn't dance in the video because hes aging... only 30 or so, but... he's definitley dancing... and the clip is towards the end of the song... so he prob kills it the rest of the song. We can't wait for the entire video... We'll be sure to post it when it comes out. Usher's back, and coming strong!!!

Shout to Urban-Hoopla.com for the screencaps.

The "New" jackson 5 of the Era?

After the finale of MTB4, Day26 has just released their self-titled album. Diddy, who produced the album along with The Runners and Brian M. Cox, has created an unbelievable group that has five amazing artists. (Willie) who mesmerizes you with his mid-high pitch voice & has the potential to lead the group, as well as (Robert) who's bravado that pulls you into each song. (Mike) who's range is the most widespread in the group doesn't get as much stardom on the album as one would expect. (Que.) who's falsetto can be heard in the background of each song, as well as in most of the choruses simply puts the icing on the cake.(Brian) who according to Diddy is "The Weakest Link", has defied Diddy's original expectations, and has proved that he can hold his own with anyone else in the group.
Day26 is a very unique group with a unique sound that can be thought as a mix of old school Mo-town and new school R&B/Pop. This unique vibe is what makes them better than other R&B groups in the past. For Example, B2K and IMX were very generic and only released songs that appealed to younger teens. Day26's album is very versatile and can relate to the older generation of R&B/Soul.
Jackson 5 who swept the nation with their singles such as "ABC" and "I Want You Back" had that unique vibe that the time period was looking for. Their unique style, vocals, and charisma is very similar with Day26. Even though Day26 probably won't sell as many debut albums as The Jackson 5, they are an amazing conglomeration of R&B Superstars in the making... GO OUT AND BUY THAT ALBUM!!!

New in R&B: Chrishan

Yet another superb 18 year old r&b singer! This guy is coming after Chris Brown's proclaimed spot as 'Prince of R&B.' He has been around for a grand amount of time, but right when he turned 18 he began to get major label offers. His name is starting to be spread around the industry and is called 'The Future.' His single at the moment is "Do it To it." This single is self-produced... Oh, did I mention that he is a producer, writer, in addition to being an amazing singer?! His single is currently getting a lot of air play in the South. We give this song an 8.8 out of 10. I'm also including 2 other songs by Chrishan. One is titled "Too Late For Us" and is an awesome mid-tempo ballad with a very enriching, catchy hook and chorus. I was singing this song within 5 minutes. We give this song a 9.0 out of 10. Finally, a track titled "Exclusive." This song is also mid-tempo with a fair amount of bass. He is an awesome lyricist. We give this song an 8.7 out of 10.

Overall we give Chrishan about an 8.8 out of 10.0! We can't wait to hear his entire album(which he is currently in the studio working on).

Go listen to this guy!!! Remember he is only 18. He is coming for Chris Brown. This will be a real battle. He also is an amazing dancer and entertainer... sounds like Chris Brown Pt. 2! We'll try and find a video of Chrishan doing his thing, dancing it up.

Here is the 1st verse, hook, and the chorus from "Too Late for Us" showing some of his exsquisite writing skills:

[Verse] It's like each day is growing colder, Im grasping for the minutes, Seconds pass and i'm thinking back when you first said i'm finished, I tried to play my part, act like it was all a game, But now I would give anything to get past your memory, girl,

[Hook] Why'd you walk away and leave me with this pain, I wish I could go back in time and rearrange, Its some things I didn't mean to say, So tell me that its not too late, oh,

[Chorus] Girl, if we keep on breaking up, we keep on making up, Is it 2 late 4 us, yeah, Girl, I know my mistake, no matter what girl I take, There could never be no faking us, Girl, if we keep on breaking up, we keep on making up, Is it 2 late 4 us, I don't wanna lose you, girl I'd be a fool to, So I should ask you now, Is it 2 late 4 us...

Album Rating: 8.4

Update: Usher

Ushers "official" versions of the songs "I Can't Win" and "Moving Mountains" are now out and ready for download! They show great growth by Ush and show, possibly, what his album could look like.

1. "I Can't Win": Ush shows off his voice and lets all his fans, and newcomers, know that he is back and ready to take on the r&b game once again. The ballad is written by Ne-Yo and produced by Stargate. The lyrics make an impact and keep you humming the song for awhiole after listening. We rate this song a 9.1.

2. "Moving Mountains": Once again, his voice is flawless. Timbaland produced this medi-slow seductive song. I can totally see this having a video where hes walking in the streets at night all bundled up after leaving his house from a fight with his girl or something. This track puts an interesting twist to normal Usher songs and shows us a new side/kind of song from him. There is a part in the song, at about the 3/4 point, where there isnt really any singing... only mumbling/echoing in the background. I'm wondering if this is where a duet or collabo will be inserted...but with who?! We'll have to see, if that is the case. We give this song an 8.9. Having a killer collabo would raise this song well into the 9's!

Brandon Hines: New Track

Brandon Hines has a NEW song! His track is titled "Look Me in My Face." This song has a semi-slow, medolic beat. His voice is very on-key and is projected just the right amount. He uses his voice in a much more mature way than his previous songs, in our opinion. The lyrics are also very well written. I'd like to find out who penned the lyrics and who the mastermind to the subtle-yet-intriguing beat is. In previous songs, it seems like Mr. Hines killed, in a bad way, his songs with the bridge... and the lack of an interesting hook.

This track should be Brandon Hines first real single. I can picture a hott remix with a rapper like Lil Wayne (beginning right after the bridge) or Kanye West. Even a rapper like Common would put a great spin on the song. If Kanye was featured they should speed the song up a little bit for the remix. We give this song a 8.3 on a 10.0 scale. Anyways, here is the song "Look Me in My Face" by B. Hines! Enjoy and Comment!!!!!!

J. Holiday - When you get Home

J. Holiday who's hit single "Bed" climbed up the billboard charts to the #4 spot has recorded many songs recently that didn't make his debut album. One in particular is "When you get Home" which I personally feel should have been one of the first selections for the album. It's a great slow jam that has an old-soul feel to it... overall it receives an 8.5/10.0, hope you enjoy!

New Music: USHER!

Usher is BACK! His long anticipated album is finally having a good amount of leaks. Ryan & I have been waiting for these songs for a long time now. The first leak, which is Untitled, is supposedly featuring Ne-Yo. The full song hasn't leaked just yet. Overall, its a great song with a nice ballad-tone that he and Ne-yo will rock all night long, again and again. The song is available on every blog. We'll post it when it 1) Has a name and 2) Is longer that 45 sec. or so. Anyways, we're going to post 2 songs recently leaked by the one-and-only Usher Raymond. One is titled "Love in This Club" and is apparently featuring Young Jeezy. The song we have has been ripped from the radio and is the version rotating on sites for about the last day or so. The song has a mesmerizing beat that makes you groove to it. Usher has evolved musically... it's nice to hear his voice again!!! As for the collabo with Jeezy... Its not a bad match, its somewhat awkward, but Jeezy does better than i originally expected. His verse is humorous and not overly sexual (like Rich Boy in Mario's "Kryptonite"). The download link is below. We won't rate the song until the HQ, or CQ, version is released so that we can hear all effects on the song, voice, etc. The next song is titled "Moving Mountains" and is produced by Timbaland. The cut is suppose to even feature Timbaland on the track somewhere. This song, in our opinion, will be like a "Damage"(Chris Brown), "Come Back to Me Shawty"(Tyrese), "Fiening You"(Omarion) kind of track. When the full version is released we will rush it to the site for download.

Overall, Usher seems to be coming back strong. If the leaked tracks continue to stay strong and showcase his vocal abilities and his ability to be on different beats/tracks, his new album (yet to be titled; or have a release date) will be platinum. All he needs now is some great promotion, an awesome first single & video, and a huge tour with a huge star like Chris Brown, J. Holiday, Kanye West, or someone!!! Get ready ya'll, he's here!!!

Nothing but GREATNESS!

Here's a leaked track that didn't make Chris's sophmore album "Exclusive", it's called 'Greatness' featuring T-pain. It's a very good song so we give it a 9.0/10.0.... enjoy!

Try a little Tenderness!

If you haven't already checked out "This Christmas" starring Chris brown, then you are missing out on an amazing holiday movie. Surprisingly his acting is as good as his musical talents, and I hope to see Chris in some more movies in the future. Anyways... here's a great slow jam called "Tenderness" from the soundtrack to the movie, I hope you enjoy it! We rate it a 9.5 for Chris's amazing vocals and it's originality.

Michael Jackson: Let me let go (LQ)

The King of pop is back!... with a new jam called "Let me let go", which is rumored to be his first single off his forthcoming album(set to release early 2008). There is no title for the long awaited album just yet, but we all know Jackson will do his thing like usual. This song was written by no other than Ne-Yo (Shaffer Chimere Smith), who happens to be the lyrical genius behind Jackson's new album. Ne-Yo who is excited to work on this album with his idol, had this to say: "I'm not trying to top Thriller. Anybody trying to top something that's already been done is fighting a losing battle. It was a different industry back then, a different way of thinking and people were easier to impress. Everything in music has been done now, so Michael needs to find his place again". We give this song a 8.5/10.0... we'll keep ya posted!

Omarion & Bow Wow: "Girlfriend"

New track from Omarion and Bow Wow's upcoming album "Face Off". This track is definitley going to be a hit. It has a unique beat, and of course Omarion does his part with his vocals on tap. Bow Wow picks up his end of the deal and gives some great verses. This is one of my favorites from the new album. Make sure to cop it at the end of the year!!! We rate this song an 8.5/10.0!

Mario Barrett: "Lay in my Bed"

Mario Barrett who is set for a late October release of his upcoming album Go!, has leaked yet another track from his album called "Lay in my Bed." This is a surprisingly much more mature song from Mario, and you can tell his vocals have improved dramatically. This is an amazing slow jam and overall we give this a 9.5/10.0... BUY THAT ALBUM OCTOBER 30th!!!

Chris Brown Feat. The Game: "Nice"

Yet another new leaked song ("Nice") from Chris Brown's "Exclusive" album! This track has a hott beat, and I mean h-o-t-t. This track is laced with great verses by both Chris and The Game. CB picks up the pace a little bit by rapping a lil' quick, but its all good. Once you listen to this song 2 times, you are hooked! The Game is a nice add to this song, great choice Chris!!! We are very impressed with the flow of the whole song. Honestly I wouldn't think a song with these two would be Magic, I guess I would have been wrong. The album is starting to unfold, and look great!!! We rate this song an 8.5 at first, but think that it'll grow to be a 9.0, like it did with us! November 6th everyone, don't forget it. Download it, you know you want to.

Chris Brown Feat. Johnta Austin "Miss You"

New song leaked from the anticipated "Exclusive" album from Chris Brown. This song is featuring the very talented r&b star Johnta Austin!!! We hope that this song will be on "Exclusive". The name of the song is "Miss You." CB and Johnta sing about the same amount in the song, they switch back and forth in and out of the verses, hooks, and throughout the chorus. We think this song has a great light beat. There's a DJ on the beginning of the track, when the HQ real version comes out we'll upload it! The song is a great jam to just relax to, and sing your heart out to(when no one is home of course!!!) We are very excited for this new album. Remember November 6th!!! We rate this song a 9.0 out of 10.0. Download the Mo'Fo'.

Mario Barrett is releasing his 3rd album Go! on October 30th, has just leaked a new jam called "Skippin' " which is produced by Mad Scientist. We don't believe this track is going to be on his next album, but it's a nice slow jam anyways. Overall we rate this song a 9.0/10.0... Cop that album October 30th!
