Usher - Versus

Usher - VersusHe’s the Midas Man—everything he touches turns to gold, from his own albums (sales of 45 million to date) to his chart-topping protégé Justin Bieber. Now Usher has released this nine-track EP, which he calls “the last chapter” of his best-selling CD Raymond v. Raymond. Rappers Jay-Z, Bun B and Pitbull join him on “Hot Tottie,” “Get In My Car” and the dancefloor filler “DJ Got Us Fallin’ in Love” respectively. And the “OMG” singer mines yet more gold with his slamming remix of Justin’s hit “Somebody to Love.”
