Letter to Usher

Dear Usher,

I'm extremely glad that you are making a comeback. Although I loved Moving Mountains, that last album didn't move me to go out and purchase it. I'm sorry...I did buy the album, I just never listened to it. (At least you got your cut)

This new album seems to be going back to your origins of good music where there are club hits and ballads to get it in to. However, why have you come out with like eight singles. Let's see: Papers, Hey Daddy, Lil Freak, OMG, and There Goes My Baby. Did I miss one?

Seriously Mr. Raymond...seriously? Aren't there only like 13 songs on albums now? And you decide to put out one-third of your cd? Was that the best marketing move? From the singles that are out, you seem to be all over the place. What are you trying to say? From the title it seems like there is a battle within your mind. Kinda like I AM...Sasha Fierce. Do you want to be Beyonce? I'm not judging the album because I haven't heard it and refuse to buy it unless I hear good things about it. All I'm saying is do you and be real to that. If that means that you are trying something new on this album by dissing your ex-wife, then letting her know you have someone new and she's your baby and also happens to be a freak...then so be it. But how about you hold on to some of the mystery of the album. If you keep people wondering, you're more likely to have album sales than to put out a third of your album and people getting tired of knowing that daddy's home.

Love always,
#Imjustsayin
