It’s been two years since the road to Usher’s eighth album began; it was then titled UR assumed to be headed by the singles “She Came To Give It To You” and “Good Kisser.” Then back in January, Usher revealed on social media he plans to name his forthcoming project Flawed.
Now Roger Friedman of Showbiz 411 is reporting that Usher’s album will arrive in July. He says:
“Usher tells me he has a new album coming in July. He executive produced it. I don’t have the song titles yet. There will be a big launch in New York reminiscent of when Usher performed with the off Broadway “De La Guarda” troupe.
This time he’ll be doing something very innovative with the people behind “Sleep No More.” The album is timed to the release of [Usher’s] new movie “Hands of Stone,” coming out August 26th.”
That’s just around the corner, how come no promo? Unless he’s planning to pull a Beyonce and drop it as a surprise on TIDAL?
We’ll see!
