Usher is a STUDENT, and the best students honor their teachers and pay it forward. 👑

[@moniquemitchell5092]

@AquaBoogie1973 Beautiful classification. You hit the head right on the nail. Exactly.. Boom!!!

[@GenesisGunn]

And if they do it well they don't have to point it out to the observer via zoom. As for Prince....that was the weather forecast. It was a great piece of planning

[@theghsundayshift]

You heard that Mr Charlamagne!! Straight from this Kings mouth. Exactly what I said you started a narrative with the ‘Handsy’ talk and you educated Baby, so give it a rest! They are ‘performing, true Entertainers’ it’s a Character’ You just saying it for ratings on your “exciting” radio station…Jess is the only Exciting thing on it now…period 💋💋 💋

If one of these women say they were uncomfortable. All of his touchy videos will not be as accepted as they are now. All it takes is one woman for this to all unravel.

[@JerushaCouture]

@@dionsmith3427 exactly!!! You clearly hear him say 'don't let the mess bring our icons down'.... You are 100% right babe at all it takes is one stupid narrative to continue in this sensitive day and age and it just unravels.... In a time where my godmother performed, it was showmanship it was creative, it was a spectacular, nowadays everybody is looking at the wrong details it's got nothing to do with that. You heard him say it was a celebration!

[@MisterFoxx]

@@mirandam5746I think he is himself still because we see the personality and humor of him all throughout this interview.

I’m so happy Usher got an opportunity to share his mindset in putting together the spectacular Super Bowl celebration. The naysayers need to “chew on it!” I was tired of reading he was trying to be like Michael, Prince, etc. Shame on them for not capturing the realness in what he was presenting. He was honoring our icons. I’m a senior citizen, I understood, and I love me some Usher!!

[@shybutterfly52]

Usher is a KING! I love that he recognizes and pays homage to those who have paved the way. He is mature and articulates so very well. He is classy and not messy and is forever evolving!

[@mocabeentrill]

Yeah, when he called Chris 'that man', I knew there's some issues there! He normally calls him his lil brother!

[@BillCosbyTouchedMyDoodle]

[@RonBruce]

Usher is so articulate, educated and intelligent. It's refreshing to see an artist of his caliber who can actually speak on things that involves black history and culture. The fact that he paid homage to those who came before him through his Super Bowl performance makes him all the more deserving of the title King of R&B. Very humble man, no ego or pride, which fits well for a King.

[@youknowfinalfrontier911]

[@gbrow3191]

He was not too hands-on with Alcia Keys. Please stop pushing that narrative. If you look at Michael Jackson's Thriller, the walk he did with the young lady, flirting with her, is the same thing Usher did. And if you look at the rehearsal, she expected him to act just as he did. It's called performing for an audience. Being a performing artist, I learned soooo much through Usher’s work in this performance. And Usher I caught alllll that!!! Michael, when he threw his arms up while dancing with the Kappas was the Teddy P, James Brown, you gotta watch it again. And Yes Usher, They said I wouldn’t make, they said I wouldn’t be here today is my song!!! That is the gospel song “I’m Still Holding On” by Luther Barnes. Yes!!!

[@Ms.A.Matthews415]

I like when Usher said he proposed last year and didn't want to leave Jen hanging on with just the title of fiance. Jen had given Usher 2 kids and rightfully so deserved the be wife. There is a fundamental difference between a wife, girlfriend, fiance, and baby mama. The ring entitles you to half of all assets unless there is a pre nup in place. But, the average wife or husband is entitled to half of all assets that occurred during the marriage. So, salute to Usher making it official.

[@ascribecalledtess7439]

[@kyshac81]

I’m certain there’s a prenup.

[@Ms.A.Matthews415]

[@nothembajozi2862]

Just when I thought you would say something monumental and you make it about money. None of Usher's ex wives have gotten anything spousal related from him. Heck he hasn't even given them faithfulness. Babies and marriage shouldn't be directly proportional. They aren't mutually exclusive but they're not directly proportional.

[@Ms.A.Matthews415]

@nothembajozi2862 I was simply stating facts. When you are a wife or husband, you are entitled to half of all assets that occurred during the marriage. When you are a fiance, baby mama, or girlfriend, you are not entitled to anything except child support, which ends at 18 years old. So, why stay with someone and have their children without thinking about your future. If your going to invest in children why not invest in marriage at the very least when you hit 65 and retirement you are entitled to half of pension, IRA, retirement, and anything else available to you. I'm pretty sure Usher has a pre nup in place as he should, and why did he do that. Usher did so to protect his wealth. Very smart move in my eyes. So, again, why invest in having children and not marriage where at least you have some level of security later in life.

[@user-vc9or5uc4x]

I love how he and other performers continue to speak positively about MJs influence and legacy ❤❤

[@finally1111]

I caught all the homage you paid to your forefathers. I even peeped some African dance interpretation during Yeah. Usher goes deep in his performances but so many folks miss it because to some it’s more important to try and tear him down rather than to appreciate the excellence that’s on display. For those who wonder how or why Usher has so many fans and a more rewarded career than your fav, it’s because of that reason. Michael, Prince, James Brown, Marvin, Stevie, Teddy, Donnie, Sammy Davis, The rat Pack, Fred Astaire, Frank Sinatra, I could go on for days.. where will the fans flock to and support since their fav artist is gone or no longer performing? Mic 🎤 drop! Stop comparing this man!

He is so right about how Jess and CTGabout how they have a huge influence on listeners and should always elevate their icons. Jess should have a positive segment and call it “Jess with the Bless” I’m proud of Jess she worked her to get where she is at. I hope usher continue to interact with the crowd and serenades at his concerts. I cannot wait to see him in Detroit!!

Usher is a true entertainer and deserves all his flowers. It feels so good as a woman entering the age of being “grown grown” to see an artist have the longevity that Usher has had and will continue to have clearly. I was singing songs off of “My Way” in the cafeteria with friends in 5th grade…5th grade! And this man is relevant still. He has been apart of the soundtrack to the life of my peers and I for so many phases of our lives from kids to teenagers to 20 something college student to now 35+ people. Proud to call him an artist of our time 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

Great interview! Usher has been my favorite singer since I saw him and Immature live in Augusta GA back in 1995. Those brothers influenced me to begin my own R&B artist musical journey, and I am grateful for the quality artistry that they continue to produce. This interview motivates me to continue grinding and growing as an artist and as a man. Blessings y’all

[@Ballerqueen24]

Usher interviews are rare and always insightful into where he is as an artist and in his personal life. Such a good interview ❤

[@dandrefalcon3963]

I got myself and my girl tickets for Day 1 in the A! We also came out twice to see you in Vegas last year. Can’t wait! 🙂

[@vspunr592]

Great interview! Now I have to watch his halftime performance for a 10x to catch more of the hidden gems. I had the MJ & Jacksons one, but I need to find Marvin Gaye now. I’m so glad I saw him in residency. ❤❤❤🔥🔥🔥

[@quidagis33]

Love in this club!

[@andersonb8925]

A lot that went into the Easter Egg tributes to artists who have paved the way, if we all knew then and now it would have been appreciated even more than it was... hats off to Usher and all involved... and to even take time to not be that guy and have a lingering engagement to now married man...👏👏👏👏👏👏👏And now on-going concert collaborations... Repping ATL

[@teresapenn5036]

Usher Raymond is a musical genius…to honor these pioneers in music is what I love about him. Honor and respect. 👑🖤❤💚👑

[@elatquotes7725]

Usher keep God in your life I know God is walking with you. Your light is shining through out the world. Enjoy your flowers.

[@elatquotes7725]

Usher you coming out of your shirt is super bowl history for all women around the world. Usher bowl was the best halftime show in history along with Michael Jackson. Usher your number ones love you , we are proud of you and I can’t wait to see you in concert in Atlanta.

That picture behind Usher was taken here in Mobile Alabama my home town

[@sonjabethay2277]

Downtown in front of Woolworth

[@jearl3054]

Usher said he paid tribute to many such as: Roberta Flack & Donny Hathoway - The Piano Teddy Pendergrass - tank top Bobby Brown - shirtless Jackson 5 - Can you feel it? James Brown - back leg pop How did he pay tribute to the following that he mentioned? Marvin Gaye - Michael Jackson - Luther Vandross - Ron Isely - Gap Band - Earth Wind & Fire - Zapp Band - Gordon Parks picture - Tribute to Joann Thornton Wilson

[@quidagis33]

I'm guessing Love in this club is Marvin Gaye and Superstar might be any singer who can do falsetto (EWF/Isley/Vandross). Jackson is the white glove and how he danced around Keys, Brown might be the disrobing and footwork in Caught Up. My wild guess is Zapp was in the skating part.

[@SincereGiggles]

Michael the white glove on his left hand. Marvin when he threw his arms in the air at the beginning of Love In This Club.

[@conniewalker1109]

He had the one hand sparkle glove that is to Michael Jackson

[@Fleezy81]

I think HER'S guitar solo was the Isley moment

[@msnoel10]

I also thought there was a Michael reference in Caught Up when he said “but it seems she got me twisted”… the move he did gave me Michael vibes

[@vonamel_music]

Usher is a class act i appreciate him as an artist that man has had such a unproblematic career great example of black excellence as a black man in the music world

[@landothomas1118]

I’m so happy for Usher, his health,his success, growth and family. Usher’s legacy is multi-generational. My kids appreciate his talent and give me slack for his being mid 40s and in great shape. P.S. and I’m in decent shape. 😂

[@joannbenning6573]

You are definitely the man of the hour.. congrats on all your accomplishments. ❤

[@Atlien88]

Such a great interview!!! I loved that he paid homage to so many artists who paved the way. ❤🎶🎤✨ Even the Gordon Parks work behind him. Usher is an icon! 🤩 So happy I got to witness his spectacular Super Bowl halftime performance!!! Looking fwd to his concert in the A! 🙌🏾

[@TheTaurean]

Yall need to get that new album. That album is so fresh. So many diff unique sounds. It not talked about enough. Independent. And own his masters on it. STREAM IT NOW!

[@KT-gm1no]

When Chris Brown was mentioned the mood changed.. Usher is R&B royalty. Not to say Chris ain’t a star in his own right..However I feel like something real disrespectful happened.

[@Disniqqahere]

They got into a fight at Usher party last year. Thats why Charla asked Usher that Chris question to see if they made amends.

[@MDOTTHEP1998]

You don't know what happened. Chris Brown swan on usher in the club last year

[@justinlong5589]

They got into it last summer at the Lovers and Friends concert clearly Usher and Breezy got issues Usher likely forgave him but didn't forget what happened that night he probably felt that Chris let him down and burned a bridge but I'm sure they will make up at some point they were brothers at one point!!

[@nettegaines2067]

It was Chis Brown’s birthday party that Usher, himself, had planned and paid for, for him. But CB got upset by one guest he didn’t like and thought that gave him the right to jump Usher.

[@kharukgothule5512]

I love that Charla asked about that Episode 😂😂😂

[@BgRs79]

I love that Usher said he included easter eggs in his performance to the greats! #BringTheGreatsWithYou AND The Gordon Park's piece above lets you know that he is about representing black culture.

[@KimberlytheeB]

I love Usher, he just seems so damn nice and puts a smile on my face whenever I see his interviews ☺️ Living Legend❤

[@meeky0420]

❤ when he said Bobby Brown! People forget about Bobby, but I’m glad he didn’t!

[@kingsmommy]

Usher definitely deserves every single flower as he’s humbly saying lift up the icons/greats and I love it!

[@ShantayNorth82]

I like what he said about lifting up our icons. We really need to bring that back. Great interview!
