♫ Usher’s Here I Stand

Date: May 21st 2008 // Author: Mike // Filed Under: Album Reviews // VIEWS: 8

Usher has returned with his late studio album Here I Stand (Jive), which hits stores May 27th! Featured guests included on two of my favourite tracks What’s Your Name, with will.i.am, and Jay-Z on Best Thing. And of course you got Beyonce and Lil’ Wayne bringing the fire on Love In This Club Part II.

Here I Stand is a pretty solid follow-up to Confessions. I wouldn’t say that it is any better, per se, just moderate; but overall I really enjoyed HIS album.

I think that generally the whole feel of the album is about HIS wife, HIS son, HIS life, etc. And you know what I say? I say do you Usher! Although, I really loved Confessions Usher - thats was, however, the past - this Usher shows growth in every aspect possible. The album’s “story” is just so beautiful, you can’t even hate or anything, it’s trial and error - loved HIS album.

nothing he does intrigues me anymore. not even mildly. I still say it was mediocre…you know, good by the standards of today but not amazing, nothing to get hype about..

do you usher, cuz you certainly aren’t doing it for me anymore.

I liked the CD, it’s real hard to come past a real good R&B CD. Usher didn’t fail me.

I was listenin to the slow jams, which are always my favorites from him (can u help me, superstar, hell, MOST of confessions)

and he sounds like someone..and i was trying to figure out who it was and then i realized it was RAY J. u know he has a wayy better voice than Ray J, why is he singing his whole album in that fake ass falsetto?
