Earlier this week, Usher debuted a brand new song on iTunes.  Interestingly enough, however, the single wasn’t lifted off his current album, Here I StandHush, a recording that continues the singer’s national call-to-service for young people, stresses that people stop their complaining and start to take action.  Featuring the motivational words of Presidential hopeful Barack Obama, who asked Usher to serve as National Co-Chair for his voter registration campaign earlier this year, Hush’s proceeds will go directly toward the singer’s nonprofit organization, the New Look Foundation.  From lending services to those in need to donating time and money to the poverty-stricken, the work of this 5-time Grammy award winner truly speaks for itself.  Hush can be purchased here.

Great speech by Obama. The beat is laid back and smooth. Usher's voice is pretty smooth. This is kinda dull and its lacking something. Deep message though. In rotation

Well, I'm kind of disappointed in you WOW :) that you don't want to be in tune with what's going on in the world and don't like listening to the inspirational words of Barack Obama. Would you say that same thing to a track sampling some words of wisdom of Martin Luther King or Maya Angelou? This is BY NO MEANS an attack on you. I really want you to respond to me and the rest of the booth about why you dislike hearing messages and things like this. On to the song...I feel it's a great composition. I commend our urban music community for continuing to make songs to support the presidential election and change in the world. I'd rather here Usher singing about something meaningful like this than "Love In This Club", and that's seriously real talk.

Incredible speech and great message. WOW it sucks that you don't like listening to songs that address the most important issues about what is going on in the world right now. And michaelhannah is right. You don't want to listen to what he has to say because you're getting tired if it? lol! and doesn't it take you longer to insert all those extra hyphens and z's and @*#$! instead of just writing the word..i mean i don't mind shortening words but the way u do it makes my head hurt when I read your posts

Ok everyone don't jump on WOW just because she doesnt want to be involved in the issues that our world is facing, its ok, but i get where shes coming from to, it is EVERYWHERE, but it had to be for people to get how important it is.. This song is ok, the beat is lacking something that i cant point out as well.

It is definetly everywhere, did anyone watch the BET Awards last night? There had to have been over 50 Obama shout out's. I gotta admit at one point I was thinking 'damn, really?' In no way I am complaining, I think it's great our youth recognizes a change. But I can see where Wow is coming from, someone who probably isn't old enough to vote yet. No need to get in someones grill for their views, right or wrong.

I think this is a great year for America, honestly. The problems are bringing the people together to push towards the future. That's real. Personally like John Legend's song better, but I'm just happy everyone's joining in. Now if only some Canadians would talk about our own election instead of your's! Lmao.

stefanwatson, it's a free country. This is what America is all about...being able to speak your voice. Your attitude is very anti-American for not supporting people to be able to speak their mind with no fear of oppression.

love this song. it gives me the chills. anyone with a sense of pride in this country and is concerned about the way it is bein ran can respect what is goin on with everyone backing Barack. To sit here and say you are tired of hearing about it jus shows ignorance towards one of the most important elections in the history of our great country. If youre too young to vote then dont comment on this shiit bc to people that are out here working their ass off to eat, this is a big deal. @stefanwatson- REALLY? please show some more ignorance on this subject. its called campaigning and the best way to get to the youth is through entertainment these days so why the hell not use it to their advantage? Doesnt matter if youre a fan of Barack or not it is great to see people standin up together at one of the most critical times in the history of the U.S.A.
