Usher and Chris Brown connect on "All Falls Down."

The last time R&B mainstays Usher and Chris Brown linked up, we got surefire heat in the form of X's "New Flame," and now the dynamic duo are back with another, most likely taken from Usher's upcoming album. Even though it's titled "All Falls Down," it unfortunately bears no similarities to Kanye West and Syleena Johnson's 2004 song of the same name.

Instead, we get a slow-burning, dramatic ballad accentuated by some dope production touches including flute flourishes, quivering strings and twinkling keyboards. The two practiced stars duet with ease, trading verses and then eventually harmonizing very smoothly.

Quotable Lyrics

She built a bridge out of her own insecurities
No one was brave enough to cross except for me
She built a castle from the pieces she took from me
I'm going crazy, think she brought out the worst in me
