When the ish hit the fan: Usher 'Papers' song details divorce from Tameka Foster (audio)


Usher's new "Papers" song hit the Internet Monday. 

Usher's new song "Papers," about getting ready for his divorce from Tameka Foster, was all over the Internet from the moment it was released on Monday. (Listen below.)

The scathing song -- co-written by Sean Garrett four months before Usher filed for divorce -- reveals Usher's feelings about the serious ish he went through in his marriage.

For you I gave my heart and turned my back against the world/ ’Cause you were my girl, girl, girl/ I done damn near lost my mama/ I done been through so much drama/ I done turned into the man that I never thought I’d be/ I’m ready to sign them papers.

If this track -- and others on his new album set to drop December 8 -- does anywhere near as well as the similar no-holds-barred tracks on his 2004 "Confession" album (10 million sold), Usher will have a monster hit.
