Chris brown has a lot of mid level jams, but I don’t think he has as many iconic songs as usher.

what does he have that would equal, let alone match up against: burn, you don’t have to call, confessions, lovers and friends, nice and slow, you got it bad, yeah, love in this club?

i actually said i don't scrub them every time, not never :umad:...and what does that have to do with disucssing who matches up with Usher? Timberlake always been in the convo with him given he made songs Usher easily could've/would've made and they both were dancers...but tell me you're stupid without telling me you're stupid breh

Chris has good songs but not really iconic. It may be that he’s still too current but his songs don’t feel like they have any weight compared to Ushers.

:hhh: There is nothing midlevel about deuces take you down or no guidance. Yall are tripping.

Take you down was literally the college anthem lmao.

That's all it is. Chris is still in the spotlight NOW so his classics don't feel like "Classics"

That don't mean a damn thing in a verzuz setting though.

And dont get it twisted. I also agree Usher>Chris But yall are straight tripping saying Chris cant hold his own in a verzuz setting.

no guidance was a hit, but it's not standing up to anything i listed from usher, and it was arguably that big because of the drake collab...just because the little segment of people +/-2 years of you was fukking to "take you down" in college doesn't make it an iconic song, it was a song you and your peers loved. lovers & friends was hittin for everyone 12-40 years old, shyt was the college anthem, as well as the HS anthem, as well as the club anthem for people 21-30, as well as the married anthem for people 30-40...

pre rihanna chris brown was a teeny bopper act, for teens and college kids, post rihanna chris brown was about putting out a high volume of cool to dope songs, but they never ascended to that all time/iconic echelon.

i was actually a chris brown stan, so this aint some hate, it's pretty much accepted he's never achieved at the level he was originally set to reach, and it doesn't help that he became the lil wayne of r&b releasing 50-60 songs/year.

chris has a dope catalog, but he would lose to usher, not get washed, but he'd lose. chris needs to battle trey songz, clearly his closest peer

this aint about being current, chris 15 years in the game, he's got plenty of stuff from so long ago that can be both judged from how it resonated in real time as well as looking back on it. usher's shyt etched itself in history in real time, people love confessions because we knew it was special when it dropped in 04, this aint some sentiment that came from looking at it after usher was less relevant.

Yes i agree confessions is a absolute classic and is a better project then anything Chris has put out. That doesn't mean usher can just go into a verzuz play confessions and win. It doesn't work like that lol.

It's 20 songs vs 20 songs. Usher does not "Clearly" beat Chris with his list of 20 songs. Especially since we know the artists never go into these things with their best 20 anyway. Usher might play some nonsense off Raymond vs Raymond and get smoked that round lol.

no one is being serious when they say an artist can put on their best album and win, like usher could win doing that, but we all know that's not how it would be set up. and no one has said chris would get smoked or cant win a round (i specifically gave a list of usher songs that chris can't beat with even his best, that still leaves tons of usher songs chris's best could beat), but he would lose. :ld:
