Following his spring 2020 ditty ” Don’t Waste My Time, “R&B singer Usher returns to the scene with his latest song “Bad Habits.” A midtempo number Bad Habits, is better than anything on Usher’s A EP and his last album Hard II Love. Pierre Medor and Theron (of Rock City) handle production on the song, which finds Usher admitting to his current flame that he can’t stay faithful.
The lyrics which include “If you knew how bad I wish that I could love you, baby I keep messin’ up my love life If you knew how bad I wish that I could love you, baby I keep messin’ up my love life” are very brash and almost toxic.
However, if anyone can sell a song about doing your lover wrong, it’s Usher, and if this is the vibe he’s going for with his next album, I’m looking forward to it.
Final Grade A
“Bad Habits” is available to stream on all platforms.

This week’s Second Listen Sunday pick takes us back to 2006 to revisit “So Amazin’,” the third album from Christina Milian. Arriving in stores on April 19 of that year, the project was produced largely by Cool & Dre, sans one song, and saw the singer earn writing credits on nine of the album’s songs.
For this week’s Slow Jam Saturday, I want to showcase love for Rahsaan Patterson and his album track “Can We Wait a Minute” from his self-titled debut album, released in 1997.
For this week’s Second Listen Sunday, I wanted to take a trip back to 2000 and show some love to the R&B duo K-Ci & JoJo and their third album, “X,” which was released in stores on December 5, just in time for a holiday stocking stuffer. Arguably, the group suffered from the sophomore slump with their second album, as only two singles were successful.
