Mario, the new Usher?

I saw a video by this kid named Mario,(sorry, don't know the name of it) and he's dancing and singing like usher. Is this kid any competition for him? The song was ok nothing to write home about but maybe he'll out do Usher!

I remember his first hit "just a friend" or something like that. And i never heard from him since.
Him and Usher share many similarities in style and such.

Why does someone always have to be the "new "enter name here" " God that bothers me. He has a good song out right now "Let Me Love you" ooh I love that song.
As a "new Usher" I dont really think he's tryin 2 be just cuz he can dance. Just because some1 dances doesnt mean that they are copping..unless its done intentionally like Justin's dumbass. Usher has his own style..a mix of Michael, Prince and Janet. Though his album is like none of theirs and filled with Mid-Tempo tracks.

I don't see no kind of Prince up in Usher's style...none whatsoever.

God how I can't stand that new song of his. It gets on my nerves and the video's lame too. Mario is like every other R&B cat out there whining about how they'll do their girl right. So what? When it comes to R&B, he brings nothing new to the table. Next.
I'm not a fan of "old Prince". I'm not a fan of "new Prince". I'm just a fan of Prince. Simple as that

Im sooooo glad u said that. I had a major argument with someone over that song. He's trying to do Prince!
The intro is like a wannabe "Beautiful Ones"

Usher is just a rip off of Michael Jackson so I don't see how anyone can be "the new Usher".

There is an uncredited sample of The Beautiful Ones in there.
