And the stuff that he’s done in general with other people. I promise you, it’s so, so worth it-the stuff that’s to come from what we’ve done is pretty amazing. We did some amazing things tracks in the studio. I don’t know if I’m suppose to say this now, but what I can say is that we did some amazing stuff. I know Usher has been in the studio lately. It spoke to him and he was able to perform it convincingly because it’s something that he understands. He didn’t want to change that at all but he changed a couple of words that I had wrote. Not much, you still have that risque factor. But he actually came in and scaled it back some. That was in play, believe that, that was in play. So at first, we were thinking Usher had to be the one to make this song about… oral pleasure But in the lyrics a lot of people don’t catch when Usher sings “I got lipstick on my leg”. I didn’t want to blatantly say “suck” or anything like that, you know? So I just used the word “kiss.” Since kiss is so universal… a kiss is so pure and classy. When did this record take the X-rated turn, though? It took us a second to realize what Usher is really singing about He bought the fucking biscuit and dessert to it. It’s like I bought a plate of fucking fried chicken with greens and macaroni and cheese and potato salad, but I didn’t have a biscuit and dessert. He kind of brought it all together as a whole song. He changed some things so it made more sense to him, like some of the lyrics. You know but Usher came in and made it his own. So how much of the song was already done when he gave it to Usher? The verses were already there and everything? He was like ‘Yo, I need this record!’ So I gave it to him and the next day at like five in the morning, my manager texted me like ‘Yo Usher needs this record ASAP!’ Man, he started dancing, going crazy to the song after the first listen. and I heard that Mark Pitts was going top be in the studio, so I go over there and play him the record. So how did you guys get the record to Usher because I know you didn’t really write the song for him specifically. About six months later, we were going through old ideas on my computer and that one came up and I was like ‘Oh shit, this is crazy.’įAMU Suspends Football Activities Following Real Boston Richey Locker Room Rap Video Later that night, I went to the studio and just put it all down, then forgot about it. And, that same day I went to sleep with my iTunes on and I woke up to that Foster Sylvers sample playing on my computer. Then, he started humming it, and I was like looking for this imaginary song on the internet because I really thought it was somebody else’s. And then Flip, who also co-produced on the record came by my house and heard me. So I woke up one morning just signing ‘Don’t nobody kiss it like you baby,’ and I was just singing it all day long. Honestly, a lot of times when I wake up singing something random, it turns into a song. This Usher single is crazy! We were playing it in the office yesterday and even the girls were into it. As the record worked its way onto VIBE’s office stereo, we courted co-producer/songwriter Pop Wansel for the full story on how the song came to life. The risqué single catapulted the seasoned crooner into the spotlight for his music and not any personal drama. 5), Usher released the lead single, “ Good Kisser,” to his forthcoming 8th studio album and the reception was overwhelming.
