USHER - "TRADING PLACES" VIDEO

The video premiere of Usher's latest single, "Trading Places" off his "Here I Stand" record was released on Yahoo Music. His on-screen girlfriend has on pieces from Usher's upcoming intimates collection. Usher - definitely and I hate to use this word yet again- restored his swagger for this Chris Robinson-directed video concept. The visible/invisible piano has a nice effect to the video overall even though Usher looked a bit Stevie Wonder-ish. If you're keeping count with Mr. Raymond, he so far released "Love in This Club" and "Moving Mountains" off the album. Usher next can be seen across the country for his "Ladies Only" tour.

This video belongs on BET UnCut...but maybe he'll use it to as a commerical spot for his underwear line. I like the piano effect but damn if Usher don't quit it with that sexy swag of his!

Chris, he sure is. I think he may use portions of this video to promote that underwear line he has going on.
