Usher Releases New 8-Track Album ‘A’


Surprise! With barely a warning, Usher dropped an epic 8-track album on Oct 12, & fans of the singer can’t seem to get enough!

The king of R&B is back! Usher, 39, took fans by surprise this week when he announced a new album, simply titled A, and the 8-track release hit streaming services as promised on Oct. 12. As his first full-length album in over two years, A has die hard fans of the singer flat out freaking out! “Usher just dropped and it’s niceeee,” one fan tweeted upon hearing Usher’s new verses. Another fan freaked over Usher — famous for his R&B vocals — lay some bars, tweeting, “I never knew I wanted to hear Usher rap, but b*tchhhhh!!!!”




Before dropping the album, Usher let fans know that it was renowned Atlanta native Zaytoven who produced the album, and his impeccable production abilities shine through every track. The new album boasts song titles like “Birthday,” and “Peace Sign,” and on one standout song, Usher gets a helping hand. “Stay At Home” features Future, and it’s a music match made in heaven. It didn’t take long for fans to fall in love with the song, and they raved over the collab! “Usher ft. Future never disappoint💯,” a fan tweeted, and another listener posted, “Usher 2 songs w Gunna & Future are fye 🔥👀.” Yes, that’s right — Usher got rapper Gunna to lend vocals to the track, “Gift Shop”!

Usher’s last album prior to this one was Hard II Love, back in 2016. Just hours before the release of A, Usher began to build hype surrounding the release when he deleted everything off his Instagram, and replaced the photos with a series of teaser clips. The project marks Usher’s second time working with Zaytoven. The two previously worked together on the 2009 single “Papers.”

Thanks to Usher, we’ll be dancing our way into the weekend.

Why Christopher Reeve's ''Superman' Is So Hard to Leave in the Past

#ChristopherReeve #Clarkkent #DCcomics #LoisLane #RichardDonner #Superman Forty years ago, Richard Donner and Christopher Reeve made a Superhero film that directors have been chasing for years, depicting who America was then — or at least who we wished to be Superman. It’s now easy to believe a man can fly. It wasn’t in 1978, but today, in midst of an explosion of superhero movies, it’s a belief we give into with relative ease. Flight is most often the bare minimum of what we expect from heroes and villains who can perform any feat limited only by the human imagination. It’s not simply special effects that permit our belief, but rather an overall acceptance that these costume-clad characters are a defining part of our culture, modern myths at their best and populist cinematic staples akin to the 20th century western at their lowest form. There have been a record nine theatrically released superhero movies based on comic books this year alone, each claiming a major piece of the glo...

Stevie Wonder, his Musicality, and his Humanity.

#Humanity #Music #SongsintheKeyofLife #StevieWonder " Songs in the Key of Life " To say this Album means Everything to me is an understatement. Throughout his conceptual album, Stevie both sings and writes of Peace, Love, Identity, Faith, Environmental Consciousness, and Cultural Awareness , to name a few. When the album was released, I was ten years old. I spent countless hours reading the liner notes—the lyrics for all the songs. I wanted to know all the people who wrote, sang, played on the album. Much of the album's depth was far too over my head as a ten-year-old, and only a few years later (Lol) do I have a little more understanding of what he was giving us. I've seen Stevie Wonder three times in my life. The first was in church, not long after moving to Los Angeles. The second time while attending Oprah's Farwell show (thanks to my brother Corey & sister in law Carrie), the third time was when my sister Sharon (R.I.P.) bought tickets for all of us ...
