Today, R&B superstar Usher officially released "DJ Got Us Fallin' In Love", the lead single from his upcoming EP Versus. The single features rapper Pitbull, and follows the electropop style of his massive #1 single "OMG". It's quite ironic that Usher is releasing another pop song, after he reportedly bashed British artists like Jay Sean and Taio Cruz for watering down the R&B genre with their pop hybrids.
Usher's purported hypocrisy doesn't take away from the imminent pop smash that this song is. With its pulsing, rave-style electro beats and Usher's powerful vocals, "DJ's Got Us Fallin' In Love" has got late summer dancefloor filler written all over it. Pitbull, who nearly stole the show on Enrique Iglesias' hit "I Like It", is ultimately relegated to the backburner against the bigger popstar, even with his quickfire verses. Usher proves that, even when hopping on the dance-pop bandwagon, he still reigns as a king among his fellow artists.
