Customer Reviews: Usher Is Back! May 3, 2010 Wesley N. Williams II 3 out of 5 found this review helpful
Although some would argue that he never left, Usher is DEFINIETLY back with his new album. This is one of the pearls from it. This jam, OMG, will be sure to be heard in clubs across the world for the next few months. I would equate this song to a present-day "Yeah." It'll take a while to catch on though. I absolutely love this song! And I hope that you will, as well!

Usher Eyed Peas April 3, 2010 Michael Kerner (Brooklyn, New York U.S.A.) 6 out of 12 found this review helpful
There is no question that Usher had undergone a lot of strife the past few years from his marriage to Tameka Foster ending, to him losing his idol Michael Jackson and singing with grief at his memorial service, to the less-than-dynamic reaction to his tracks from his latest album Raymond Vs. Raymond from his earlier singles like Papers and There Goes My Baby. Nevertheless, he is still trying to make it all his own, and his latest single O.M.G. which he teams up with Will.I.Am. from The Black Eyed Peas feel like Usher is trying to spike up the magic The Black Eyed Peas caught last year with I've Gotta Felling. It sadly feels like it is a less than strength that should be strong for Usher to deliver. I wasn't very surprised with the song, it felt like it was watered down and less than organic for his calibur. Usher should try and show his rhythm to a better crowd that feels like his own and not a mimic, and that is not a confession.
Song: D+
Oh my gosh, I'm so bored... July 16, 2010 Amaranth (Northern California) 3 out of 8 found this review helpful
"OMG" tops the list as one of the most annoying songs of 2010. Along with the vocal stylings of Justin Bieber and Ke$ha, as well as Katy Perry's bland Californian comeback, it's a song that deserves to be stashed in the forgettable bin. "OMG" brings together the talents of the handsome Usher,as well as Will I Yam of the Black Eyed Peas. The lyrics are repetitious to the point of being... painful. Is this song banned by the Geneva Convention for being cruel and unusual? "Oh my gosh, I'm so in love" Usher sings over and over and over and over and over... then it devolves into some cheerleading chant. It would be as if one of Ke$ha's songs managed to segue into "Ave Maria" as sung by consecrated nuns. It doesn't make sense. It's too bad I have this song memorized. It's THAT bad. Raymond shouldn't be pitting himself against Raymond Raymond v. Raymond--but against bad music.
