 Usher | By the time he was upon the threshold of puberty, Usher already had a record deal and a gold album. By the time he graduated from high school, he'd established himself as one of the most visible artists in R&B. Armed with a soulful voice and impressive songwriting skills, Usher's songs vary from floor-rattling dance tracks to between-the-sheets ballads. Between 1994 and 2004, he released six albums, appeared in several films, earned multiple platinum plaques, and collaborated with a wide variety of top-shelf artists. Though he was already a well-established famous singer (and occasional actor), 2004 was the year he really blew up worldwide, thanks to the infectious, chart-topping single "Yeah" produced by Lil Jon. The song, and his album Confessions, netted him three Grammy Awards and propelled him to the upper tier of music superstardom.Find Usher cds and Usher records on Arista Records. |
