Usher's first week sales projection (He had a great run)

[ReturnOfJudah]

fukk all r&b nikkas that tried to push That CAC sound. Now they are irrelevant and want to ran back to their black fanbase

 

[Still FloW]

thats sad to see

 

[The Fire]

Ushers Just A Guy Who Made Some Cool Music And Can Dance Really Good

Legend? Icon? fukk No lol

[The Fire]

"Tell Me" is hot fire
African karma sutra orgy music

 

[Deoji]

i fukks with that No Limit jawn. this cover tho.....

Crazy that nobody mentioned "My Way" in this thread. Usher has 3 huge selling classics in 20 years. Thats legendary...

I'm not counting him out tho. He fell off once before 8701 came out, but he managed to bounce back

Usher problem is that he wanted to cater to the youngins with his singles. Should have came out with something adult contemporary and he would have moved more units

Exactly. He might not have been "mainstream" anymore but he'd be making music for people who would actually buy his albums.

 

[Homeboy Runny-Ray]

hate to break the news to yall but usher been washed since since like '08 or '09. whatever year it was when he stopped making music with Jermaine dupri.

his music career has been a comical struggle ever since.

usher isn't a legend now?

how many r&b cats could you name who has a hit currently 20 years after his debut album?

usher is far from what yall make him out to be on here breh.

hes going down as a legendary entertainer, sure. that's about it tho.

Exactly. He might not have been "mainstream" anymore but he'd be making music for people who would actually buy his albums.

hes tried making grown-folks music and failed. yall would know this if yall followed the music that yall claim to follow.

that's not his lane. it never was. he doesn't have the vocals, the style or the authenticity.

hes a bubble-gum artist that's just old now. its over. and its been over for about 7 or 8 years now.

sad that Justin timberlake can keep using the funk/rnb sound without falling off and cacs honor him every time he drops

Usher career should of been like that

 

[Silver Surfer]

Be 40 and tey to make music for kids

I'll never understand the mindset of music fans. It's not just R&B or rap fans, all genres of fans are guilty of this. Why do yall catch such hurt feelings when someone does a song that you do not personally like or is not aimed at you? God forbid it actually becomes a hit. Sittin around crying "he abandoned us" lol. Usher's career shouldn't revolve around making one kind of song for one kind of fan for the rest of his life. If that was all it took to stop being a fan, you were never one to begin with.

breh, i wish it was just ONE song that sucked, but i actually bought that fukking album and it was not good
i got burned once, i was not gonna get burned again.
and i'm saying this as someone who has been keeping taps on usher's recent music.
it just ain't up to par IN MY OPINION and that is why he has lost me as a supporter!!

 

[Playaz Eyez]

He never should of abandoned us when he ran off doing those watered down EDM records

I didn't listen to his album from 2012, but that didn't have EDM/pop on it? That one sold like 130K first week. Looks like time just passed Usher by
