Though Usher's upcoming album UR isn't going to be released any time soon, a new song from the R&B superstar titled "Cuz We Can" has leaked online, which you can check out below. It's not clear when this song was recorded, or how it will be officially released, if it was intended for release at all, though its sparkling electronic production suggests that this is a recent production.

According to an interview with Billboard back in September, Usher's new album was originally set for release in 2014, but has since been pushed back indefinitely. "The album isn't scheduled anymore," he said. "I've basically taken it back. I'm taking my time with it. At the end of the day, all of this is just about having fun. You get in the studio [and] go with how you feel."

"It's not about a specific topic of specific period of my life," he continued. "I wanted to do something that I felt like would be current, but wouldn't necessarily conform specifically."

The album will reportedly feature guest appearances by Chris Brown, Drake, Skrillex, Nicki Minaj, Pharrell Williams, and Ed Sheeran, among others. It will be his eighth studio album overall, his first since 2012's Looking 4 Myself.
