You know what’s so ironic about Usher is that he came up in an era where everyone was great!! Usher’s only competition we’re women. There was no men on his level of artistry besides MJ and maybe R.Kelly in terms of mainstream success. Usher sat with other elites Brandy, Monica, Aaliyah, Destiny’s Child, Mya etc. Usher has that overall star factor which makes him the best male performer of his generation & the king of R&b in my opinion. He has the look, the moves, the sound, & the reputation. Beyond the music, he carries himself like a true gentleman. You rarely hear anything negative about him and that speaks volumes. For him to have a career last over 25yrs and yet he still remains a class act. He’s well decorated, sold millions, diamond album, Grammys. Come on now! Put some respect on Usher’s name! 🙌🏽👏🏽👑

Been watching his careers since his introduction with "Call me a mack" in the early 90s and since then I must admit, his music never really disappointed me. There were like 1 or 2 songs which were not my cup of tea but he stood the test of time, never ages 😁 and his output is solid besides coming across very humble. Legend!!!

He was introduced as a 14 year old young man and honestly forgot the song that he sung but I'll never forget his voice. I remember it was odd seeing someone so young doing a live performance at a club. I've been a fan ever since.

They invite a guest on but end up either finishing their sentence? Or talking about themselves. Usher has so much depth to him now his in really good place you can feel that witj him he looks at peace. Intervuewrs need to go deep with him now that's the skill of a true interviewer.
