JumpinJack AJ Posted March 21, 2013 Report Share Posted March 21, 2013 YES! Usher Reuniting With Jermaine Dupri For New Album Mar 20, 2013 By Hello Beautiful Jermaine Dupri and Usher created classic music such as “Confessions,” as a duo. The 2004 release, which is hailed as a classic, remains Usher’s highest selling album and the last R&B album to sell 10 million copies. For a while, we weren’t sure if the duo would ever work together again but, all that changed when a photo of the boys, with the caption “Me and Usher back in the lab,” putting our speculations to an end! In an interview with TheUrbanDaily, Jermain Dupri spoke about the high expectations surrounding them working together. When you do the records and you do that many numbers, and you have that many number ones, it’s a lot riding on your back. It would have to be something me and Usher sit around and talk about because it’s not like we can just go in the studio because y’all gonna critique it against “Confessions.” I don’t ever feel like I’ve made a record better than the ones I’ve already made. I don’t think I ever made a song bigger than “Jump.” But I did “confessions” and “We Belong Together.” These records have a place out there that feels like they’re bigger but I don’t believe that they’re bigger. So in my mind, I’m saying, “I don’t know if I can make a song bigger than “Confessions.” I believe I can because I have a bone in my body that says Quincy Jones was 50 when he did --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I don't know how anyone else feels about this, but I'm HYPED. Usher's dabbling in dance/electronica is tired and disappointing me. The music just isn't that good even though he's one of the greatest artists of our time. I'm hoping that him and JD come up with some legit R&B/Soul/Hip-Hop. His first 4 albums are flawless in my opinion. His fifth isn't bad, though I think it's focus is a little scattered. His two most recent albums (especially his latest) are rather awful. I'm really excited to see what they come up with!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
