What was nikkaz smoking when they thought Chris Brown could see Usher in a Verzuz?

[HandyWithTheSteel]

Honestly, I almost said Cal Ripken. Lol

But I used Tony Gwynn because he hit for average; I’m using the colloquial baseball definition of “average hitter”.
Tony Gwynn was not a power hitter, and he didn’t strike fear in the opponents heart when he came to the plate.

Prime Usher had power though. Confessions, 8701, and My Way were all powerhouses. Confessions was running the game in ‘04. How many R&B singers have dominated an entire year? MJ, Prince, and who else? Maybe Bobby Brown.

Here I Stand was the beginning of his decline and Love In This Club was his last real hit. Usher has been ever since.

If anything he’s Albert Pujols. He had it all in his prime which lasted about 10 years. Then he was a shell on himself for the next 10 years.

Where did all you Usher nuthuggers come from?

Usher got a boatload of hits, but let’s be 100 - he is the most mid artist to ever blow up.


He is the Tony Gwynn of Pop - a solid career full of hits, but average.

This is by far without a shadow of a doubt the worst take in modern history…I hope you proud of yourself you goof

Usher had hits, but no power backing his swing, Yo.

If you ask niccas their favorite Usher songs, they gonna name the singles.
(with the possible exception of “That’s What It’s Made For” - which got hella burn)
Why? Because we wasn’t bumping his albums like that.

Usher absolutely did dominate ‘04…
but he gets no props for dominating ‘04 because that’s one of the weakest years for Popular Music of all-time.
That hottest chit besides him was “Laffy Taffy”

That’s just like that year Tony Gwynn & nem made the World Series because everybody else in the NL sucked.

Usher got a gang of hits - more than most artists. I’m giving him that…but his hits aren’t haymakers.

Put up or shut up, fakkut - give me your 5 favorite Ursher songs of all-time.

 

[Mʀ2ᴋDᴇᴇᴢ]

Forgot which comedian said it but


"I need to know the name of this girl, so I can stay the fukk away from her"

Damn, I never peeped the whole music video.

It was twins, wowwww

 

[bnew]

Breh i was around. EVERYBODY was bumping Confessions. It went Diamond.

it was EVERYWHERE!

stores were wearing it out while you shopped, blasting from car speakers, BET & MTV were playing his music videos like crazy.

 

[Methodical]

Did I say Chris got an album everybody talks about?

You just proved his point. I ain't even know the name of all Chris Brown albums at all and nobody can say Chris Brown got a classic album, etc.

 

[Taadow]

He didn’t even have a point, he was disputing my points. Which were:

- niccas (common folk) was not bumping Usher’s discography…besides Confessions
- if You’re an artist with 10 albums and people only talk about one of them, your chit is Mid

I’m not even talking about Chris Brown anymore - he’s cut from the same Mid cloth,
which I have stated Ad Nauseum.


But niccas are gonna face the TRUTH about Ursher today. I am
TAKING
ALL
FADES

I want everybody to stop acting like they love Ursher; like they listen to Usher like MJ or R-Uh.
You do not love that nicca.

 

[melraH]

Damn, I never peeped the whole music video.

Kellz migh be a degenerate but that album is flames not as good as his previous work but it was dope.

 

[African Peasant]

this nikka got up on the summer jam screen for giving a BBW herpes...and shrugged it off

cheated on a member of the legendary group TLC...and wrote an album about it


made his own money (Ush bucks) and finessed mfers then winked and smooth walked off in Las Vegas

the only person Usher can touch is Michael Jackson and even then... it isn't close.

maybe we can have a MJ hologram verzus Usher

What are YOU smoking? FOH


Kellz will BURY usher.

 

[itsyoung!!]

The problem is Usher hasn't had major shyt (IMO) since Climax or that joint with Yuna. That's a long time.

Its almost like hes too busy having the most successful residency show in the world for past 2 years

No they not necessarily shyt nowadays it might be Superstar

My personal favorite is Follow Me

 

[Yehuda]

That’s why I didn’t say Confessions - niccas was not bumping nothing before that hardbody,
nor anything after that.

Usher got like 12 albums and people only talk about 1 of them!

Ehh, I think I can see where you're coming from. I love "U Remind Me" but TBH 8701 has always been rather weak IMO (and I don't care how big "U Got It Bad" was, I've always been about it; like I don't turn the shyt off when it's playing but I'm not the one who put it on in the first place).

I'm cool with My Way, though. This is my shyt:
