To celebrate the both SKIMS and Usher’s forthcoming drops, the artist and Kardashian have partnered on a very special project set for Feb. 9 at midnight ET.
At that time, an exclusive, digital download version of his new album Coming Home, featuring an alternative cover and a bonus track aptly called “Naked,” will be available on Skims.com only for one week only.
In a release, Usher called the experience “humbling” and a “full-circle moment.”
“Kim’s been a longtime friend of mine who’s always been so supportive of my work, so the opportunity to collaborate together on a campaign that supports both of our highly anticipated launches made total sense,” he said.

"I didn't start where I am now, and I didn't get there by myself," he said during an interview that aired on Good Morning America.
"So, everybody that has been a part of it, I'm carrying them with me. All of my fans, my loved ones — the people who may have felt like they have been forgotten, they haven't. I'm carrying you right with me when I walk on that stage that night."
