and spx - the disrespectful part was that he said they gave p the award for shock value

I would say this is correct. Grammies are not about good music. There are about mass success more or less. Even us, We were all surprised -if not shocked- when P got the grammy. No one expected it.


hmm..i never thought of it that way. and yes i was VERY shocked. but i don't think thats how he meant it, if u read his whole statement

I guess giving the award to Prince was suppose to be for shock value, but I was cool with it cuz I'm a Prince fan. Awards don't excite me like it does for other artist, just look at the Billboards that's my awards right there.

Usher still sucks. Just another boring modern R&B artist with the typical sounding hip-pop songs produced by the same ol' hitmakers of today's shitty music scene.

His music mostly blows.

Has anyone ever heard Usher say anything about Prince? I remembered at the NAACP awards Usher said "even Prince" at the end of his thank you's. It might have been due to the night belonging to Prince. Anyway just curious if you've heard anything. PEACE ~ PRIME


PS - Usher is on MTV2 performing - I think it's his Showtime performance that Prince was rumored to do. PEACE AND B WILD lol


i dont know that much bout Usher...God bless him but he really hasn't registered with me.

I would imgaine like many cats he has been strongly influenced by Prince

And there's nothin wrong with that
cool

spx said:

Come on! I am not an Usher fan, but honestly he is not disrespecting Prince. He said "Other artist" he didn't said Prince. Assuming he just said he was a Prince fan he was probably thinking about someone else as he knows Prince "does not wanna be a poet cut he doesn't want toblow it, he does not care to win awards".

Then the sentance "Look at the billboard chart, here is my award" is almost a a Prince quote. razz


hmmmm
are u perhaps not seeing something here?
he is definately disrespecting prince
as a whole of what he said

-----
Prince and MJ were influenced by JB and always gave James credit. Usher just rips Mike off and then is disrespectful to Prince who is legend compared to Usher.

He also sucks as a singer and a entertainer. I watched his special on cable. It was awful.

Usher who's that! Oh that stupid guy that thinks he is Gods gift to the world, he's ugly and has no talent. Prince is fine and talented. Prince will be around forever. Usher, he's carrer may end tomorrow. Usher does not have the right to say anything about Prince. Prince probably thinks Usher is a joke. If any body had the right to say something it should have been Prince about Usher, but Prince would not stoop so low. Prince knows he is the best and he does not need somebody to tell him he is best. (like Usher)

This whole thing is a little weird because I attended the April 2002 (?) Hit & Run Tour at the Civic Center in Atlanta and Prince called out Usher, Chuck D, and T-Boz during the course of his performance. Usher, Chuck, and T-Boz were/are fans of his music and he singled their presence out as a friendly thing.

Maybe Usher (who I detest) couldn't figure out why P is still relevant. Then again, as a "musician", Usher should already know the answer to this...

I have a question about this quote that Usher supposedly made. In what issue did of Jet magazine did Usher make this comment??? cuz I looked up and down for it and could not find it to save my life. I want to know who was on the cover and the week because I was telling Housequake about it and someone wanted to know the source and I never saw it.

Where did this source come from?

I argued with some dumbass awhile back about this issue that Usher borrowed from Prince on Do It to Me from The Beautiful Ones and then didn't even list it in the credits that he interpolated it. They gonna argue with me that they are two different songs. Usher copied from Prince bottom line. Just because you paste different lyrics on somebody elses music don't mean shit.

EXACTLY! Prince may have been a smug asshole at times, but he had the talent to back up his arrogance.

first time I saw it was in music non-Prince during the grammies, let me go back and find out which orger gave it. If it's fake, it's the best damn fake ever.

That's the first time I saw it and I believed it because it sounded like some shit Usher would say. I remember it was suppose to had been on page 14 of the issue, but I never seent it with my own eyes. I have to admit me and another orger is responsible for having that tread removed. They argued with me about a non-existing Usher album and told me to recheck my resources and I called them a dumbass told them that I already checked my resources and I knew what I was talking about.

Alright everybody we gettin' all bent out of shape for a comment that Usher might have not even made because nobody post the actual Jet issue and the article. Looks like we've been Punk'D
