This Week in Hip-Hop Sales: Usher Stands Alone

Posted by Nathan S. on 05/19/10 | Filed under Features, Charts, Usher

The last few weeks were looking great for urban music. Eminem was flying up the charts, B.o.B. was holding the crown at number one, Usher was staying strong, but this week? This week Usher's the only urban artist even within striking distance of having a top ten album. See more...

This Week in Hip-Hop Sales: Justin Bieber Chart Slaps Usher

Posted by Nathan S. on 04/29/10 | Filed under Features, Charts, Usher

For one shining moment urban music was back on top - Ludacris and then Usher both hit number one within a few weeks of each other - but it looks like those glory days are now gone. While Usher's "Raymond vs. Raymond" continues to sell reasonably well, slipping down to the number five slot this week, overall this week's charts are dominated by, well, white people, and one young white boy in particular. This week Justin Bieber let Usher really know what's up. See more...

This Week in Hip-Hop Sales: Usher Stays On Top, B.o.B Continues to Move Units

Posted by The Insider on 04/15/10 | Filed under Features, Charts, B.o.B., Usher

A week after Usher's "Raymond V. Raymond" debuted at #1 with 329k copies sold, the face of LaFace Records is back at it again. In his second week on the charts the "OMG" singer moved another 92k units to bring his two week grand total (for all you non-math majors out there) to roughly 423k. Read More...

This Week in Hip-Hop Sales: Usher’s “Raymond vs. Raymond” Debuts at #1

Posted by Nathan S. on 04/08/10 | Filed under Features, Charts, Usher

I'm man enough to admit when I'm wrong, and so far I'm completely and totally wrong about Usher's new album "Raymond v. Raymond". Despite my predictions that it wouldn't sell strong (due to leaks and a lack of a real hit), Ursher baby's latest opus came in at the number one slot in the country, moving 329,107 units in its first week.

Usher Watches Nicki Minaj Be His Little Freak (Video)

Posted by Nathan S. on 03/25/10 | Filed under Top Stories, Videos, Nicki Minaj, Usher

People went walnuts when I dropped Usher and Nicki Minaj's porn-esque, lesbian oriented, not even remotely safe for work track "Little Freak", so I can only imagine what the reaction's going to be like now that we have some accompanying visuals that are more than worthy of the song's title. So grab some popcorn, call the kids, and get to watching. Come on, I know you want to. See more...

Usher & Ludacris Insist “She Don’t Know” (Listen & Download)

Posted by Nathan S. on 03/12/10 | Filed under Top Stories, Downloads, Ludacris, Usher

Another day, another "Raymond vs. Raymond" leak (more on that later), and in honor of the guest artist on today's leak I'll be calling its headliner Ursher for the remainder of this article. That's right, Ludacris has reunited with the former Mr. Tameka Foster for the high energy "She Don't Know", a brightly bouncing track about a chick in Ursher's life playing hard to get (unlikely). After a series of disapoitnment, this may just be one of the best tracks I've heard so far off the album. Listen and download...

Usher & T.I. are Feeling “Guilty” (Listen & Download)

Posted by Nathan S. on 03/12/10 | Filed under Top Stories, Downloads, T.I., Usher

It's been hit or miss lately for Usher. First, after making an entire album about how in love he was he got divorced, then decided to write a song terrible song about his experiences call "Divorce Papers". From there he managed to regain some musical credibility with the release "There Goes My Baby", which he promptly squandered by dressing like a "gay urban Batman" at his All-Star performance. The rollercoaster ride continues with "Guilty", a softly bouncing cut that has Usher pleading his case to the judge, along with the "I'm Back" emcee T.I., for whom the word "guilty" carries an entirely different meaning.

Usher has it All, but He Wants “More” (Listen & Download)

Posted by Nathan S. on 02/17/10 | Filed under Downloads, Usher

Largely lost in all the controversy surrounding Usher's costume choice during his NBA All-Star Game performance (which has now been officially dubbed "Gay Urban Batman") is the fact that he premiered a new single, the club-ready, house music-esque "More". Personally I'll take a pass on this one, I prefer my Usher more confessional, but I could see "More" blowing up. What do you think? Listen and download...

Usher Croons “There Goes My Baby” (Listen & Download)

Posted by Nathan S. on 01/07/10 | Filed under Downloads, Usher

Jermaine Dupri was apparently pretty angry that his track with Usher "Foolin Around" got leaked yesterday, so we'll just have to wait and see if Jim Jonsin is equally pissed that his collabo, "There Goes My Baby" with Ursher has also hit the net. Frankly, Jonsin has a lot more to be mad about; while "Foolin Around" was mediocre at best, for my money this track is the best we've heard of the upcoming Raymond vs. Raymond album so far.
