Twisted should be the next single. Could you imagine if her released this around the time of Beyonce and JTs new singles? I think all three of them could shift pop N' b back into the mainstream. (I kinda miss hearing Pharell's funky beats on the radio).
What Happened To U is also an awesome candidate as the next single. It could make an awesome Grammy performance, and it has that Drake feel to it (probably because Noah Shebib produced it) that Urban radio would certainly agree with.
Can't Stop, Won't Stop could be a good choice as well. Will.I.Am is riding high with S &S, and this track is almost like a distant cousin of Usher's last #1 Single OMG. This could also be played on all radio formats.
The final candidate for me would be I.F.U. Any Usher track that could make some awesome choreo in a video is certainly worth at least a vid.

I hope he isn't.  I think he should release Looking 4 Myself, just because it's something different, and for urban he could release Say the Words. Twisted should be released too, it has that crossover appeal.

This album is full of gems. I want him to open his eyes and realize that Grace Miguel is a BAD manager!This era is mishandled

Say the Words, Twisted, Climax, Sins of my Father, Looking 4 Myself, what Happened to U, Dive, etc... Such classics. He should separate his relationships from his job, it's not doing anything good for his career, or maybe he should just self manage himself.
Also what the hell does Usher have anything to do with Justin? They should stop comparing them because they do different types of music.

Yep. Seriously I sometimes think she's part of the reason why L4M was sucha flop.
Timberlake  I swear the public always tries to make it seem like they don't like each other.

She is, she is the one who told him to fire randy phillips so she could take over his carreer but she has no idea of what usher is as a brand. I'm sure she is good people but she is a terrible manager.
I know but justin & Usher are cool, nothing but friendly competition

 she's such a bad manager, he should just get his mom back, or like I said before, he should be his own manager, I'm sure that if Jonetta was still his manager or Randy he wouldn't have released Scream and Numb as singles.
It's funny how people put them against each other, when they are known to be friends, I love competitive Usher by the way

Scream was a good choice, because radios played it 24h  but Numb wasn't a good choice, it's a good Song no doubt, but there are much better Songs @L4M Album.
They'll always compare Usher with other artists, because he is since years in the scene and he is still doing it

Yes it was, but it gave people a wrong impression about his album, but at least he got a top 10 out of it. Numb is a good song with a wonderful meaning, but I think people just want to hear something different from him, he should have released Looking 4 Myself, Twisted, or Euphoria.

Yes, I don't know what his management was thinking releasing Numb, Euphoria was a fan favorite he should've released it.

I missed it
there is a new interview tonight regarding the Voice
Quote:
Obviously, Usher is taking his coaching duties quite seriously on The Voice. He's bringing in the big guns!
We can exclusively reveal that in season four, Usher will bring on rapper-producer Pharrell Williams to help him out in the battle rounds. All you Voice fans know that the battle rounds are intense knockout competitions of epic vocal proportions, and the contestants need all the help they can get.
"A master of his craft, an artist, an innovator. Who better to have on my team than Pharrell?" Usher says in a statement. "His ability to nurture and develop talent is invaluable and will truly benefit each and every one on my team."
Watch Blake Shelton and Adam Levine talk about their bromance
To see more from Pharrell and Usher, check out an exclusive interview tonight on E! News at 7 p.m. and 11:30 p.m.! And for all the updates on The Voice, follow @NBCTheVoice on Twitter.

Hmm, he tweeted yesterday:
Usher Raymond IV @UsherRaymondIV
What's up world? Back on the west side!
I guess he focus now more for The Voice and maybe then we will see a new Single, because The Voice will push Usher 1000000000000x more.

He's going to have a really busy year.
If he releases another song, to wrap up this era, he needs to promote, he's going to be on The Voice during spring, he still needs to film Hands of Stone, and he goes on tour around September.
If the movie get's finished by summer, and if it's any good, then he'll probably do some sort of Oscar campaign for the rest of the year.
That sounds exhausting
