New Music: Usher Snippets + 1 New Full Track


Download: This Ain't Sex (full), Echo (snippet), The Best Thing (snippet), Just Like Me (snippet)

Uhh....wow, lol. A ton of new snippets from Usher's new album Here I Stand have leaked. First up, This Ain't Sex produced by Tricky Stewart and Jazze Pha, who also produced the very similar Just Fine by Mary J. Blige. This Ain't Sex is a bouncy, up-tempo, "cheerful" track, more child-friendly than recent cuts like the suggestive Trading Places and Dat Girl Right There (which, by the way, isn't on the official tracklisting...?).
Echo, produced by Bryan Michael Cox, and Just Like Me don't appear on the official tracklisting either. It kinda sucks that Usher spent so much time recording this record only to decide at the last minute that he didn't want half of the material on the album anyway.
The Best Thing, which features Jay-Z and is produced by Jermaine Dupri, is the strongest of these leaks IMO. Throwback to 2004's Confessions, which was produced mainly by Jermaine. Hopefully the full version will leak soon.
