Usher Shares New Single ‘GLU’
Usher Shares New Single ‘GLU’: R&B icon Usher is back and better than ever with his latest release, “GLU.” This sultry track features a collaboration with Lil Jon and Sean Garrett, and is Usher’s first new music in three years. The steamy music video stars model Lori Harvey, and has been causing a buzz online with its seductive visuals.
“GLU” is a slow-burning jam that showcases Usher’s signature falsetto, as he croons about the intoxicating feeling of being close to someone. The lyrics speak to the power of physical attraction and the chemistry between two people: “I just love that glu / That slides down you whenever we start touchin’ / It gets all on you, all on me from fu**in’ / That’s when that glu done got you.”
According to Sean Garrett, “‘GLU’ is such an authentic song for this time. Based on the feeling of the record, there’s a lot of soul in this song. It’s been a long time since we’ve heard such a super sexy record that felt very seductive, and this vocal performance is at its finest.”
Fans of Usher can look forward to even more music, as he prepares for his first album since 2016. “Of course Usher and I are also working on doing an unbelievable album together,” added Garrett. “We’re following this record up with a couple of monsters for the clubs and the world!”
Usher’s latest release marks his first collaboration with Gamma, a new company founded by former Apple Music executive Larry Jackson. In September of 2022, Usher celebrated the 25th anniversary of his second album, My Way, by releasing an expanded edition with three new tracks.
In addition to new music, Usher will also be performing live in Las Vegas for his “My Way” residency through July, and he is set to headline the Lovers & Friends Festival in May. Fans can’t wait to see what Usher has in store for the rest of the year, and his latest release “GLU” is certainly a promising start.
