User Reviews about Raymond v. Raymond

The cd was in very good quality. I did not realize it was censored. That was either an oversight on my behalf, or was not advertised. However, I am enjoying my cd and am pleased with the product quality. -- Usher Cd

Honestly the cd was okay, I just initially brought it because I love that song there goes my baby. So I decided one day just listening to the whole thing and it was nice now I like most songs on the cd except daddy's home since plies is not on the one from the actual cd. But his Confession Album was the best one he made, honestly!!!!!!!!!!!! -- OMG is My 2 year old brother Favorite song... OMG

I didn't have very high hopes for this CD because after listening to "Here I Stand," I pretty much gave up of ever wanting to listen to Usher again. Thankfully, my husband is a fan so during a four hour road trip, we popped this CD in and after just one listen of the entire CD, I am so happy Usher is back with his signature sound. I was sure there would be only one or two really good songs but no true. I like all of the songs (though I least like "OMG"). If you enjoy Usher's music, you will not be disappointed at all with this CD. -- Much Better Than "Here I Stand"

There were very high fan expectations with this album release "Raymond vs Raymond" by the recently divorced Usher.The album has 15 songs with featured other artists T.I., Will.i.am,Ludacris & Nicki Minaj.Notable solid tracks include "Pro Lover","Makin' Love (Into The Night)", "Hey Daddy (Daddy's Home)", "Mars vs Venus" (title of my review) & my most favourite song of the bunch "Foolin' Around".Divorce has certainly affected him quite badly,hence the album is very personal at least lyrically (he sings regarding cheating, too many girls in the world,three sides to a relationship failure story,etc). The overrall assessment of this album is just above average with gems highlighted above, earning 3,5 stars that approximate 4 stars!Hopefully he would have recovered well from the pain of his divorce in the next album release. -- "Mars vs Venus",a new album by Usher.
