What's funny is ... who confirmed this as a second single? I'm still keeping hope alive that it isn't. OR that they'll see some of the negative response and have a change of heart. Then again, this board is pretty much the only place I see that really isn't digging this one. Everyone else seems to like it. :'( :'(

I went through the comments on a few urban boards and the reaction was really split - either really feeling it or hated it. With opinions so divided, if this is the official second single they probably knew beforehand that it was going to get that reaction, and it's unlikely that they'll change it.
I also get the sense that Usher is losing (or maybe has already lost?) a chunk of one of his 'core' target markets (30+ black females) but has the younger and the ratchet/thot crowds covered. Problem is the 30+ black females are/were the ones more likely to actually put down money for his albums, and the CHR market seems still largely unaware that he has an era coming.

This song got really high on the new Twitter charts that Billboard is publishing. I think it could be a hit personally. It sounds very unique, but fairly commercial at the same time, and they could use the fact that it's produced by Dr. Luke to get pop airplay (although that's not helping Nicki Minaj's current single, so I don't know).

I wish they would let us know if this officially a single or not already. Hmph.

He's supposedly premiering the second single next week, so I don't think this is the second single.

I almost forgot this existed. This was more radio friendly than "She Came to Give it 2 You", maybe the label should have stuck with this as the follow-up to "Good Kisser"

Officially revoking my stan card here & now. He deserves to flop if this shit (which was already slammed by the masses when it leaked) is the best he's got to offer.

Should have been the second single from the beginning. He would have at least had an urban hit.

They put the album on hold to release a song that's been out for months already anyway?

I've been hearing this A LOT on the radio,so I'm not surprised. I wonder what happened with "Believe Me".

Where's all of these forward thinking tracks that Usher has previously spoken about in interviews? Where's the Diplo collabortions? The Drake feature? Hell, even the fucking Ed Sheeran/Skrillex mess? Come on, ANYTHING but this trash. It's one thing to flop, it's another to release something so shit that it diminishes his body of work as a whole.

my answer back song "I Mind [the 'This Is Fucking Bullshit' Remix]" feat. allow that coming soon!
Really though, I'm guessing they just don't know what to do at this point and they figure, why not throw it out there just to see what happens. GK didn't cross over, and SCTGITY was slow to catch on anywhere. IDM got a very mixed reaction when they first released it, which I suppose is why they held off on sending it to radio until now when there's nothing more to lose.
If there was any time to release the Ed/Skrillex song it is now while Ed has a current era and some presence on radio. I don't know why they didn't at least try to move on to that next. And a Drake feature is rarely ever a bad choice for radio. It almost feels like Usher/RCA are too stuck on him getting a solo hit first to resort to releasing the collaborations, but I don't think there's any benefit to holding on to those songs now.

I don't understand why "Believe Me" isn't pushed. It's an outstanding ballad and seems very heartfelt -- i.e. like his previous hits from the early 2000's.
I guess they are trying to be provocative but this isn't a very good subject matter and it's comical more than anything. The vocals are on point and Juicy J doesn't do that horrible in it.. so I could see it being a moderate hit, just not the #1 hit we have seen from Usher from his previous eras.

my answer back song "I Mind [the 'This Is f**king bulls**t' Remix]" feat. allow that coming soon! Worddd Honestly, as long as they're going to release something we've heard months ago, may as well make it a year ago and go with "Go Missin."
