As expected, hip-hop and R&B heavyweights have already gathered together to pay tribute to Michael Jackson. The Game jumped in the studio to record 'Better on the Other Side,' a DJ Khalil-produced track dedicated to the "King of Pop," who died of cardiac arrest on June 25.

The Game made a few phone calls and received a little help from some friends/fellow MJ lovers, including Chris Brown, Diddy, Usher, Polow Da Don, Mario Winans and Boyz II Men, who all jumped on the chance to pay respect to the pop legend.

R&B stars Usher and Chris Brown both expressed their extreme sorrow over the sudden death of Michael Jackson. The King of Pop was noted as the inspiration for Usher and Brown, who have both been compared to the late singer.

"This loss has deeply saddened me," Usher said of the man he once shared the stage with. " It is with a heavy heart I composed this statement. May God cover you, Michael. We all lift your name up in prayer. I pray for the entire Jackson family, particularly Michael's mother, children and all his fans that loved him so much. I would not be the artist, performer and philanthropist I am today without the influence of Michael. I have great admiration and respect for him, and I'm so thankful I had the opportunity to meet and perform with such a great entertainer, who in so many ways transcended the culture. He broke barriers, he changed radio formats! With music, he made it possible for people like Oprah Winfrey and Barack Obama to impact the mainstream world. His legacy is unparalleled. Michael Jackson will never be forgotten."

R&B singer Usher's soon-to-be ex-wife Tameka Foster-Raymond has had it with her divorce lawyer Randy Kessler. The only problem is, she let her Twitter followers know before she told him.

The 38-year-old mother of five "mistakenly" posted a response to friend and attorney Star Jones asking if she knew of a good lawyer. "My lawyer = horrible. Need the name/number of a good one in Atlanta," she wrote.

After recognizing her mistake, Foster-Raymond posted a comment on her page. "Please delete this...it was a mistake. Not for [people] to see. I'm sorry."

Kessler, a prominent Atlanta divorce attorney is known for his celebrity clientele. Per his firm's website, representing high profile clients is "twice as challenging as rewarding as it is challenging." In the days following news of her split, Foster-Raymond appeared to be in good spirits. She attended a movie premiere in Atlanta with her three of her five children, and was recently snapped wearing her wedding ring.

Usher is letting his divorce papers do the talking when it comes to his split from Tameka Foster-Raymond. According to court documents, the 30-year-old called the marriage "irretrievably broken," as he has not lived under the same roof as Foster-Raymond since July 2008. The divorce petition goes on to state that there is no "reasonable hope of reconciliation" between the two.

Although Usher has yet to go into detail as to why he is divorcing, it is speculated that Foster-Raymond may have been unfaithful. The mother of five's lawyer Randall Kessler has not directly addressed the rumors but stated that the 38 year-old is a "faithful and loving mother." Kessler also said that his client loves her soon to be ex-husband and wants to keep the matter "as private as possible."

R&B star Usher and Tameka Foster-Raymond's impending divorce was confirmed to the public on Friday, but it appears as though the couple's split did not come as a surprise to their friends and family.

Since tying the knot, the two kept the rumor mill afloat with claims of infidelity, family problems and Foster-Raymond's alleged controlling behavior. In the beginning, both Usher, 30, and Foster-Raymond, 38, refuted such stories, but recently they've chosen to remain silent.

"No one I've spoken to is surprised," says a source close to the pair. "As bad as this is [going to] sound, it was never a matter of 'I wonder if they'll divorce,' but more like 'I wonder WHEN they'll divorce.'"

Other members of their circle spoke of their dilapidated union unraveling shortly after the wedding. "They peaked before they even got married," said a friend of Foster-Raymond's. "Right after it was over, they started to drift apart. [Usher] just wasn't ready to settle down, at least not with her."

After two years of divorce rumors, R&B singer Usher Raymond and his wife Tameka Foster-Raymnd, are calling it quits. According to reports, the singer filed divorce papers this morning in Atlanta and moved out of their Atlanta home several weeks ago.

A source close to the family confirmed the split. "Usher's primary concern is for his children," said the source of their two son, 17-month old Usher Raymond V, and 6-month old Naviyd Eli. "He is a great father and just wants to do what is right for them."

Last week Usher, 30, was spotted with a mystery woman while on a trip to Los Angeles. It was later revealed that the woman is a project manager for Def Jam Records. The Grammy winner was also snapped without his wedding ring, fueling rumors of an impending split.

Tameka Foster-Raymond, wife of R&B singer Usher, is once again refuting infidelity rumors, but this time she did it on her Twitter page. The 38-year-old mother of five got into a heated "posting war" with a Twitter follower who questioned why her husband was spotted checking into a hotel with an unidentified woman.

"Your friends have been dropping hints about [you] and Usher all along. Umm, why isn't your husband following you on Twitter?" The blogger asked.

Foster-Raymond, who initially brushed off the comments, eventually responded directly to the heckler. "You're a[n] angry woman. I don't know who hurt [you], but it wasn't me. I will pray for you. I'm happy & life is GOOD for me! Enjoy [yours]."
