what's so good about him, really? he's just filling the "Michael Jackson Void" just like Brandy, Monica, Mya, Ashanti, and Ciara are trying to fil the "Aaliyah Void" damn. watch out for the Ursha police.

that's why i had to drop that knowledge.

done and done *folds arms and nods head*

it doesn't say intrumentalist.


musicians are people who make music, whether it's music you like or not. Usher is a singer with a few albums out. you can't not call him a musician.

usher is okay but he is just A WHORE!!!!!

GrayKing said:

One who composes, conducts, or performs music, especially instrumental music.

The connotation is instrumental, although performers can be considered "musicians" under that definition. However, that would also mean we'd have to recognize certain no-talent blonde teen pop stars as musicians, since they can apparently "perform" (lip synch and dance, with occasional twittering) a song.

If you're comfortable doing that, go right ahead.

Bobby vs usher.....Bobby wins hands down.....u seen a Bobby show.....kicks ass!


As for Bobby in "mr telephone man" vid.....he cannot be beat.....damn he was angry in that vid huh?

thesexofit said:

Hell Yeah. No way in hell Usher could every be like Bobby when he was in his prime and I know this for a fact b/c I was a hardcore New Edition/Bobby Brown Fan back in the day.

ok, ya'll are going to kick my ass....but vocally, usher is better than bobby.


Bobby is a better showman though....

abierman said:

Alright Dammit, Leave Oprah alone. Stop hating b/c she didn't give up any of the free shit that she gives away on her show.

VoicesCarry said:

it's right there in the definition you posted. "especially instrumental music" but not exclusively. he sings, he's a musician.

glamslamkid said:

Exactly. I love how you said that he is trying to fill the MJ and Alliyah Void.

GrayKing said:

Your right. I guess being a studio enhanced vocalist/lip syncer would constitute as being a musician.

GrayKing said:

That's what I said - according to that definition.

I have a personal definition to exclude no-talents, however.

glamslamkid said:

Ooooh, I wish I could have seen THAT!!

I think you can be considered a musician now if you can create a song and you don't have to play an instrument to actually create a song

You can hum a melody you have in your head and have someone who can play an instrument by ear figure out the right key and there you go. You have created a song, which would make you a musician

I can only play and read in treble clef and I cannot transpose, so I right a song in treble clef and someone else will have to tranpose it for me. It doesn't mean I am not a musician. Well, since I play an instrument, I am a musician. Just using that as an example. I don't know chords by heart but I can read music and play an instrument.

Did that make sense?

Thank you!

ABeautifulOne said:

so what's your point?

VoicesCarry said:

I guess nowadays artist like Usher have proven that all you have to do to be classified as an musician is be an studio enhanced vocalist and lip sync during concert performances.


"What's wrong, wrong with the world today."

musician or no musician I'd still him
