I’ve been perusing the charts for some singles to download (legally!) and I happened to see that newly divorced r&b heavyweight Usher, had not only one single on the chart, but three.
This gave me a great idea of reviewing all three singles and sharing with you which Usher song I liked the best. Which one is your fave?
Lil Freak, Usher feat Nicki Minaj
Not only is Usher a single dude again, he would like all the ladies to know that he’s horny and looking for some lovin’! Perhaps the title of the song was a dead giveaway, no?
Sample line: Hey girl I see you like that
you gettin excited you rockin like a pro with it girls
by the way you got right on that and now you counter kissin on a girl
I'm about to have a minajay [ménage] with this lady
look at those freaks at the bar looking for a star
Trust me, these are some of the tamer lyrics. Usher ain’t shy about expressing his turn-ons! FYI, this song is all about scoring a threesome.
X-rated content aside, the song ain’t all bad. However, after reading the lyrics, I like it less.
This is the kind of song that you will definitely hear in the clubs to get everyone moving. It has a good beat and the half-drunk club goers will surely be screaming the chorus!
Accompanying Usher on this song, is resident freaky girl Nicki Minaj. Even though she ain’t the most skilled emcee, she’s actually my fave part of the song. Who knew that someone could actually work in Dasher, Dancer, Prancer, Vixen, Donner, Comet, Cupid, Blitzen into their rap? I find that oddly kinda funny!
Al though the song is not all bad, I definitely won’t download it. I’m no prude, but this song is a bit much for me. Onto the next single.
Hey Daddy, (Daddy’s Home), Usher
Okay, so if you read the review above, the same can be said about Daddy’s Home. Pssst....Usher’s still horny!
The good thing about this song is that it’s not as dirty as Lil Freak. It leans more to the sexy side and comes off sounding more romantic than pervy. He’s telling his boo that when he gets home, he will show her how much he missed her.
Sample lines: And I won't knock or ring no bells
You just poke that bottom up in the air
I'll get you hot, I know you oh so well
And when I walk in, all that I wanna hear
you say Daddy's home, Daddy's home for me
After hearing this song 536 times, it is stuck in my head. I like it, but is it worthy of a download? Not sure yet. Onto the last single.
OMG, Usher feat. Will.I. AM
Out of all 3 songs, this is the least provocative song. Usher continues his lust over hot women, but he isn’t as randy as he was in the previous 2 singles.
Sample line: I fell in love with shawty when I seen her on the dance floor
She was dancing sexy, pop, pop, popping, dropping, dropping low
Never ever has a lady hit me on the first sight
This was something special; this was just like dynamite
The theme and the sound of the song is pretty typical of an r&b single (guy spots girl dancing suggestively, guy is interested—I’m sure you can hear T-Pain, or Flo Rida on this track), but at least this song is very danceable (more so than Lil Freak).
I will say that the moment I heard the song I immediately liked it. It got me dancing even though I wasn’t really partial to the chorus (is it me or is it a little weird hearing a bunch of people screaming OHOHOH?)
So after reviewing all three I have chosen my favourite Usher single. The single worthy of a download is OMG. I like the high energy and the fact that he says "oh my gosh" appeals to my geeky side. LOL!
What's your fave Usher single?
