Usher – “Hot Toddy” Featuring Jay-Z & Ester Dean

I will admit to initially writing off Usher’s Raymond Vs. Raymond album, but songs like “There Goes My Baby” and “OMG” went on to become hits for Usher, and he’s been getting as much mileage out of them as he could. However, they are taking the well-trod “re-release” road by putting out an EP called Versus and also re-releasing Raymond Vs. Raymond with the EP as a double-disc set, both of which will be available August 24th.

“Hot Toddy” is produced by Polow Da Don and features Jay-Z and Ester Dean on vocals. Between Usher and Ester, these vocals feel rushed and at times; they sound downright unpolished in my opinion. Any goodwill Usher had with me because of “There Goes My Baby” flew out Tameka’s upper-floor spinster window.

Did he say “whoa kemo sabe”?! I guess. LOL, people will eat this up. Shouts to Jay giving props to The Illuminati. Shouts to Ester Dean for replacing Ciara’s vocals but managing to sound worse than her? This is just an overall fail and it makes me want to go have a drink. This AND that Pitbull song…come on Usher.
