Jermaine Dupri, who collaborated with Usher on the record, revealed that the singer is "itching" to release his new material.
"He has been taking a pretty long time to put it out, but I think he's ready now," Dupri told Billboard. "The last couple times I've been around [him], you could tell he's got the bug to hurry up and put this record out. He wants to get back out here and give the people that. He's got that itch."
Jermaine added: "I know that I've done my songs and I know that my songs on his record are crazy."
Usher and his wife Tameka celebrated the arrival of their first child, Usher Raymond V, in November.
