Anybody see that ridiculous Batman style outfit Usher wore during his NBA All-Star Game performance? I know, I know, it was a different (and not necessarily good) look for the multi-platinum R&B singer. But did you listen to the song he performed? If not, let me reintroduce More, a super upbeat pop banger courtesy of producer RedOne. Similar to his All-Star game get-up, Usher goes for a different sound on this one, aiming for a more universal club joint as he delivers the kind of perfectly timed lyrics and clean wordplay that can easily crossover into numerous markets. However, if this is going to be a single off of his next album Raymond vs. Raymond, then I believe we’re going to have to wait for his NEXT album to see if he can ever top Confessions. But hey, what do I know? Tell me what you think. Is this Usher’s next hit? Or is More just like his All-Star costume: different, but not in a good way. Either way, we’ll find out more when Raymond vs. Raymond drops March 30.

Decent song got a nice beat. I'm still waiting for that one song Usher usually has that makes you want to go get the album

RedOne is the best hitmaker alive today. I have yet to hear a wack beat from him. Usher puts forth a solid performance on this one. I can definitely see this burning up the radio.

I heard this quite some time ago, but the finished version sounds much better (although the unfinished was still amazing)
Clearly the hit that Usher needs. He brings so much energy on this. I don't see one thing wrong with this. Classic |

Not my cup of tea. Maybe since I'm use to Usher singing over strictly R&B joints, he just sounded out of place on here. RedOne's beat was fire but maybe on more of a pop artist the song would of been better. I could totally see this song for commericals on tv.

Usher always sounds smooth but more of an album filler than a hot single...the will.i.am track "Oh My Gosh" that leaked is much better than this

This will probably be the single that will lunch Raymond vs Raymond onto the shelves, though its probably the weakest club banger that Usher has ever realesed (in comparison to Yeah & Love In This Club). Its stil a pretty good track with some great production from RedOne.
One thing that this track is missing is a rap verse. I was thinking that Ludacris or T.I. would of suited the sound of this track. |

Hot, but I will probably always think of it as an NBA single.

It never ceases to amaze me how many people like to point out that something is "old." You know what old is? Usher's "Yeah" is old. This has not been released to radio, it hasn't been put in regular rotation, it hasn't even been released as a part of Usher's new album. So, please tell me, how does this qualify as old? I'll wait...
Off soapbox now and moving along. This is undeniably catchy and anyone who knows rhythm will probably sense that. I am hoping this is selected as a single as I think it could really do wonders for Mr. Raymond. |

Wow I just can't get enough of that production, but for some reason, I think this sounded better live. Also the reason people are saying this is old is because it kinda is. It has been leaked for almost two months now. Otherwise great song, and if it becomes a radio hit, it might be a near-classic for me.

I havent listened to this song yet. But i think if usher ever wants to top confessions. he needs to go back to that style instead of trying so hard to do what everyone else is. it just doesnt fit him to me.

Quick reactions...I don't know if Usher will be able to overcome that "gay urban Batman" costume choice, that's one that's going to the grave with him...Aussie Pride is right on, a rap verse could have made this a banger...I bet this will be huge in Europe, in the U.S., not so much...DJBooth often features songs as they're made official singles, so if you've got a problem with how old this song is, take it up with Usher and Arista...at this point it feels like almost all of the album has leaked, even if Raymond vs. Raymond is dope I don't think the sales will be very good...

Just sounds like yet another dissapointing new usher joint. He doesn't even sound comfortable singing over such a pop tune. Not a fan

Every time I gear up to hear an Usher song, I always ask myself "will this be the song that takes me back?” Sadly to say, like previous songs this does not hit the spot. I'll keep waiting to see if Usher can ever top confessions...... I guess it will be a long wait.

very catchy, but i think it will get old quick on radio cuz its not quite good enough where fans want it constantly beating in their heads.

Not bad, but not great either. I can see this getting big in clubs. Not that I'm a huge fan of him, but Flo Rida would fit perfectly on here for the type of track that Usher is trying to make.

@ Z: People say its old because they heard it like 2 months ago, which really isn't old, its just old to them because they don't listen to it anymore, so its "old". Obviously to people that only hear songs when they hear it on the radio, it will be new to them

Adhering to the generic formulas and beat is one that will have the dance floors rocking anywhere, but this does nothing for me. Replace Usher with anyone, but my response will stay the same. Okay at very best.

I agree with you man, I don't think he can ever top Confessions. Nice song, but I don't see it hitting the charts. |

The NBA all-star game was the PERFECT stage for Usher to introduce this song to MAINSTREAM america.

This track had potential. It would be a cool addition to the clubs for sure. It was probably missing a good rap verse or something and thats what kept it from being a 5-star song. Other than that, though. I think Usher brought some great energy. RedOne has been doing great beats, getting a lot of praise after his work with Lady Gaga.

The production is very nice. Usher's vocals are always good! This is a nice dance track. Reminds me of an 80's movie! This is a BANGER! If these early tracks are any indication of what the new album is going to sound like, then we are all in for a REAL TREAT!

Finally something I'm not embarrased to sing. The beat and of course the hook make for some addictive ear candy. I'm wanting a lil more of Usher, especially if he brings it like this.
