Wow...it took you quite some time to come to that decision...

He's creating a new genre? Well he needs to get in line behind Beyonce first. Before "4" came out, it was reported that she was working on creating a new genre as well. Both of them need to have a seat if you ask me.

Usher is talented but the most iconic guy in the music industry today? What are these magazine editors smoking? I will say that I loved "8701" and liked "Confessions", but his last album was shit. He was trying too hard to latch onto that pop/electro trend. Yeah so much for creating a new genre, but we'll see what happens with the new album.

From a diamond certificate album to a new music genre: the story of the artist that for us is the most idiotic guy in the music industry

If to the words dancer, singer, talent scout, chef, masseuse, Trey Songz illegimate dad and producer you add the trademark “idiotic”, you’ll find him: Usher. The big name of American R&B, whose talent has been certified diamond in 2004 with the album Confessions (20 million copies sold), he is and has always been, in fact, the “good boy” of charts besides also being an totally disputed style icon.

And while today there are still those that are waiting for Mr. Entertainer (a nickname that somehow recalls eau de Cologne and Sinatra) to drop his mask, he has shown himself, day after day, for what he truly is: a gentleman 2.0. Usher's creativity and art can be strongly seen and heard in the creation of Raimond v Raimond – released in 2010 – that, exploiting the lessons learnt from Woodsworth on the recollection of feelings in tranquility, got everyone’s consent.



Sure, Usher is not only an elegant and slightly rebel good guy, as seen in the photo shoots for L'Uomo Vogue in January 2011 and March 2005, shot by Stephen Klein (as you can see in the gallery): his universe is also made of great entrepreneurial successes. And it’s not like his good guy side can’t get along with his role as a mentor, on the contrary. And as a demonstration of it there will be the Christmas song, which will be aired as a preview on October 24th, that sees the (spiritual) father Usher and the son (in label) Bieber together in a collaboration quite full of “aww”s.



And for the immediate future? Voices say that something more than a "new album" is in the works: Mr. Entertainer has been developing new songs that will create a new music genre, one he has coined as "the same shit Beyonce thought she was going to make on 4". That should teach something to people that are still holding thier breath,(that suffocation is preferable to another CD by him) waiting for him to make a faux pas. Take some advice, catch your breath and get comfortable because it seems you will have to wait a very long time.

Looks like Vogue Italy just signed off on an article Usher's PR people put together.

If he was annoying as a little brat, think about him when he reaches 21. *shudders* I still call it on his best days being numbered as far as his career goes...just like most child stars.

This was the exact moment I knew I would never. ever. like him.

He love him some Boyz II Men and was promoting their new album on his twitter so he good in my book lol.

I gave him the benefit of the doubt at first, I generally felt bad for him over how much hate he got.

Revolutionary Flop? Revolutionary FAIL would be a better title lol

Usher thinks he's gonna invent a new music genre?

This thread is SO FUCKING FUNNY!

New genre al'right.... Revolutionary Garbage.

He and the WEAVE ONE need to stop talking to one another on the cell.

Please people, Justin Bieber is rude as sin. And bratty too.

You better watch it or he'll punch a cake!

Usher and Beyonce creating new genres of music is like Lil Wayne when he said he was gonna do a rock album. Just because your RAP songs have guitar parts sprinkled here and there DOES NOT make you a rock artist.

In other words, more David Guretta-esque stuff since it gets radio play (and going more straight R&B like "Mountains", isn't anymore). So he's going to exhaust this type of crap until EVERYONE is sick of it, and people want o hear something different

Beyonce, too, made promises in the press to invent a new genre of music on her then-unreleased project 4. It sounded like the same old, same old to my ears.

Just exactly who do they think they are that they can just up and create an entire new genre? If that's the case, any ole dog or cat off the streets can make some generic record and create a whole new genre. Give me a break!

Gunsnhalen said:

WTF is it with R&B & Hip Hop artists talking shit all the time, seriously. They gotta be the best, create new genres, new looks, new fashions. They kill me

Right? WTF does "fashion" have to do with music, anyway? Not a damned thing. You LOOK at fashion and you LISTEN to music. They are two separate artforms. I guess when you've got no musical talent you have to distract your idiot followers with something lest they realize you're not an "artist". At best some of them could be called businessmen. Mostly conmen, I would say.

They should focus on making a CD that I won't use as a coaster by the second week of listening to it!
