Usher, GLU | Track Review 🎵

Grammy-winning R&B superstar Usher doesn’t miss a beat with his freaky sex-driven single, “GLU.”

“You done made it messy / I guess that means you qualified.” Wow! 🎙 Usher isn’t the least bit shy on his first single of 2023, 🎵 “GLU”. Sex is the modus operandi, period.  Making the sex even more pronounced is the hella sensual, naughty, and ripe falsetto by the 44-year-old R&B superstar.  Even though Usher is now middle-aged officially, he doesn’t sound as if he’s missed a beat. If anything, as “GLU” proves, he’s more freaky and nastier compared to the past: “How the fuck you choke then don’t choke / Then do it both from the side.”  OMG!

“GLU” commences with a terrific groove, set in a lilting, soulful compound duple meter. Produced by a formidable team – 🎛 Sean Garrett, The Avila Brothers, and Lil Jon – the backdrop is lit.  The combination of piano and electric guitar during the intro, which last about 35 seconds, is lovely.  Even so, the star of the show is Usher, who brings a dramatic, sexed-up performance for the ages.  Sex sells, and Usher sells it to us, titillating with lyrics involving licking and, of course, f#¢king 😈.  The chorus is the centerpiece, where that glue is in full effect: “I just love that glue, ooh / That slides down you whenever we start touchin’ / It gets all on you, all on me from fuckin’ / That’s when that glue done got you / Hey.” Gah-day-um, Usher!

Final Thoughts 💭 

All told, 🎵 “GLU” needs no extensive analysis – it is clearly about sex. The 🏆 Grammy-winning R&B star may not be as popular as he once was, but his talent hasn’t diminished in the least. “GLU” is raunchy, but it’s hard to deny how satisfying it is, not to mention how horny it makes the listener 😈.  Great sex music by all means 😈!
