A lot of orgers probably would. They'd bitch about how he sold out, and then go order one for themselves. lol

I don't know if it's exactly selling out. I look at as him diversifying his funds. And this a "brother" that is doing it too. nod


"Brother" or not, I can't respect him for doing this anymore than I can Hilary fuckin' Duff. neutral I know people will say he's just going for his, good for him, yadda yadda yadda... but to put your face on a credit/debit card is just fuckin' cheesy. I'd be different if his cut went to his favorite charity or something - it'd be half way acceptable. BUT the hell is Usher gonna do w/ the $ he's getting? Buy another car? Another ugly ass outfit? If you're gonna do something this cheesy put the $ toward something good - give back to "the community", send some kids to college, start a youth program. Don't just feed your pockets "brother" - there's work to be done...

And yes, I'm daring to put him in that "Black responsibility" box... 'cause I feel like it neutral He better be taking damn good care of his family!

twocents


I totaly feel you but then again its HIS money. Might as well fuck it up if he wants to!

And the way I see it, when you want to contribute money in a good cause it shouldn't be forced upon him. It should be coming from him without people telling him he should do it otherwise whats the point?

Anyway, that is super egotistical but hey lol like I said, its his money shrug
