A spokesman for Jive Label Group yesterday reported that the label is pushing bach the release date for the new Usher album "Raymond v. Raymond" from December 21st to an as-yet-undetermined date. The reasons given for the delay were somewhat vague, but the official said that it was necessary to give the album a "proper launch." The debut single from the album, "Papers", has already reached the No. 2 spot on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop charts.
