I think that’s why he put out the “Papers” record to say, “Listen, this is the last time I’ll be talking about it.” I’m sure he’s going to touch on it in a few records, but I don’t want people to think that’s what it’s about because he’s way more classier than that. He sang about his divorce on “Papers.” Will the album touch more on his relationship with his ex-wife Tameka Foster? “There Goes My Baby,” “Into the Night,” “Lay You Down,” “Hey Daddy,” and “My Bag” to name a few. What are the titles of the tracks you contributed to the project? I just feel like he lost touch with his demographic. It’s not like Here I Stand wasn’t a good album. He had lost his father when he was creating the Here I Stand record, a lot of controversy with his marriage, he had kids, he parted ways with his mother’s management, and there were just a lot of things going on and he kind of lost focus. I feel like he’s got his mind right and it’s focused. How does this new album compare to his previous efforts? Usher’s fifth album Here I Stand didn’t resonate with his audience as much as 2004’s multi-platinum Confessions.

Raymond, currently set for a December release, shared exclusive details with about the project. Hitmaker Rico Love, who contributed six songs to Usher’s sixth album Raymond vs. Usher offered fans a glimpse into his personal life with the art-imitating-life buzz single “Papers.” But if you think that’s the only surprise the R&B crooner has in store, think again.
