Notice how Usher speaks. It's with clarity and realness. Giving you just enough information. Today's music is all about just the moment. People forget about creating classics. You can tour on a great catalog if you stick to your essence. So many people go into these interviews and go, " umm like, yea, you know " Which leads me to believe they don't actually have any real substance to speak about anything. Also, people are always putting people against each other like Michael Jordan and Lebron or Kobe. You can be great in your own right. Nobody is topping Usher. Chris Brown is for this generation but each person has brought the culture of music into new avenues.
"People forget about creating classics." Yes to that and everything you said!! Some songs nowadays are okay but I always wonder will this have the same effect on people in 20, 30, 40 years even? Probably not
What an awesome interview! I just love the way Usher was answering questions. The way he was feeling the vibe .The way he was real. The way he shows he's old G and he still holding it game down for 20 years? I love how fashionable he's looks. I love how sexy he looks. How he expresses positivity about August and Chris Brown you know that's the kind of black love and support we need in this music industry and Usher showed that!! What an awesome interview
Probably out danced Chris what the fuck. Usher is frightened to go in a dance battle with Chris because chris will murder him on the dance floor. He cant even answer the question. He's scared
CB is great at freestyling but Usher's style, esp his pop and lock, connects with the music and looks great to watch but CB definitely edges him when it comes to pure energy and creativity so shout out to both of them.
I love usher he seems like a cool guy to be around.Everytime i see usher he always have a big smile on his face and always seem happy.He so postitve thats y i love him .i could listen to usher talk all day . Usher has a beautiful smile it makes me smile and happy good interview
usher and Christ brown there my favourite so ever in music, i love the way the sing,dance and they voice quality is 100% awesome..my big respect and love to them 100%
An enjoyable interview. Love Usher's maturity and mannerism. This is a great opportunity for August to tour with Usher. The OG showing love for Aug.....Blessings.
People kill me always trying to compare these two, 2 very dif generations of dancing, it wouldn't be a fair battle cuz both of them has their own style of dancing, just be happy they both can entertain their fans rather they're singing or dancing together, why Yall gotta keep comparing them, both are very good entertainers period smdh!!
My Top Favorite Usher joints : (Revised) 1) Twork It Out 2) You Don't have to call 3) Love in this Club 4) You remind Me 5) Bad Girl 6)Superstar 7) Good Kisser 8) You make me wanna 9) Hey Daddy 10) Lovers and friends 11) Can You Handle It 12) Throwback 13)My Boo 14) Do It to Me 15)Lil Freak
I am so, so glad to hear that Usher has taken August under his wing :). I think that young man has so much potential and is a real dude. He is rough around the edges, but he is young and with some positive guidance he can go far. I just love you Usher for being such a great but humble person! Love you, love you, love you!
If usher's new concert is anything like his 8701 concerts my life would be made! This guy has SO many hits it's crazy. Sn: August Alsina is cool & all but his voice gets annoying after a while..I just don't see him lasting long in this music industry in my opinion
You right, you can't listen to August on repeat. He starts sounding like a sheep having an orgasm. Usher is a real soulful artist. His music is classics and it's more relatable to everyone.
Cool interview. Both Usher and CB are dope and in my opinion, people always try to rally for a dance-off between them simply to discredit the former seeing that the latter is a decade younger. But if you were to challenge both to take things down a notch with no fancy stage stuff and give the choreography a break by just sitting down or standing to SING, who will come out on top? R&B is not just popping and locking. Usher has proven to be one of the best dancers ever in the game just as Chris is killing it now. However, even with two decades in, he can sing a lot of these new-age R&B artists under the table. I do like how he's pretty chill with a lot of the guys that came after him and is willing to guide them because that kind of longevity is admirable.
One of the realest comments ever haha and I'm not saying that because I'm an Usher fan, because I'm a fan of Chris too, but people don't know how hard it is to stay relevant for over 20 years. I don't even think people really know that Usher is practically the only R&B artist from the 90s that is still be talked about today. And he's the only R&B artist from the 90s right now on the Hot 100. His longevity really is admirable
Usher's first album was in august of 94 though...so that means hes been in the game for over 20 years. He just managed to put out a big album and big hits 3 years later. That doesn't change the fact of how long he's actually been in the industry selling records.
Boi stop liking your own shit....if he had hits in the 90s then he's a 90s artist. Usher is the last R&B artist to sell a million albums in a week...and the last R&B artist to have a diamond selling album....he's impacted R&B more than Trey.
New Flame though you compare the way Usher was dancing compared to Chris Brown on the video Usher was just amazing. But I think if Micheal Jackson, Usher were magically the same age as Chris Brown (25) MJ would blow their socks off in my humble opinion.

Usher is one of my favourite singers still to this day, my older sister listened to him non stop aha but he had good music so I didn't care, If I met him I would've asked him to do the hook on one of the tracks off my mixtape. great interview though keeping it real HOT 97
This was a great interview. I'm definitely a fan. I loved him on the Poetic Justice soundtrack when he was doin' his little Jodeci thing. I didn't buy his first album because I wasn't convinced. I did buy the singles from it though. I'm always playing Think of You and Can U Get Wit It in my household. Now when he came out with My Way, I was obsessed. I played that ice blue cd every day before school. And it's still good all these years later. After Confessions that was it for me. I liked the song Here I Stand, but never bought the album. He can't just BLOW, but he definitely SING. Usher, stop playin'. You know you've seen yo' ex's show. Now if you were smart like Ne-Yo, you would've given her an ultimatum and said, if you get on tv and bad mouth me, that's gon be the end of yo' checks. Overall, that show was wack and nothin' to cry about. None of those women were interesting and they basically bit off of every other reality show. It's really nice that he's reaching out to all of those young brothas. Too bad none of them can really sing. He's secure within himself. That couldn't have been R. Kelly. Justin Beiber has expired so I'm more than thankful. That N word scandal came right in the nick of time.
I love Hot 97 interviews! Ebro is the life of the party and Usher is amazing! Wow! I met him once and sold him some earphones and this interview just validates why I was starstruck when he came to my store! :)
Yall sleeping on Omarion , that brotha can dance. I will love to see all 3 of them dance off. Chris goes hard with his dances he put his emotions in the dance while Usher is just so smooth as if he has been doing it from birth, Omarion is creative he will do some shit that will have you wanting to get up and try it.
If they are referring to the IHEARTRAIDO "New Flame" performance Usher did not beat Chris Brown. They HAVE to be watching s different performance than the one I saw.
That your he's talking about at 15:20, damn I was at one of those concerts. It was in Atlanta and Usher had a lot of folks come perform. I remember Luda, Ciara, John Legend, Kanye of course, etc
And to be honest idk why ppl compare usher and chris brown. Usher is a legend in the game and an Ol G. There is no comparing usher. The comparison should be between chris brown and omarion. Even tho ppl sleep on omarion Omarion got dance moves.
i would like to see chris do the classy and smooth dancing that MJ and usher do then maybe i will be a fan, and them chris fans need to stop telling usher to retire if you are great you dont need anyone to retire to be great, usher become a legent when MJ was alive and R kelly was big
Unlike most celebrities, ***** at least tries to be a good person and better himself. He seems more aware of his role model status to young people, other minorities and musicians compared to when he first started out.
Usher is basically saying he burned his shoes to let c.b know hes passing the dancing torch to him. Chris brown is a great dancer but usher is solidified and doesnt have to prove a damn thing!
Truthfully. Micheal will crush Usher, Usher will crush Chris, and Chris will crush Mario or the next dude coming through. But they really have their own dance style. So really, no comparison.
Fuck Throwback is the shiiiittt! I wish I would have been there having this conversation. Throwback is my fav Usher song and i've been a fan since day 1.
![[Live] : ONE 168 วันนี้!! "โจนาธาน vs ซุปเปอร์เล็ก"](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/0jIN65KgJsI/mqdefault.jpg)
Usher is the only R&B artist from the 90s on the Hot 100 right now....Legend....longevity.

Great points! Totally agree.
You are right on point, thanks Delionaga!!

@@rsprags8 Tight on!
He aged well he looks exactly the same as during the 90s
i noticed that too.
Ur right. I'm wondering how I grew up listening to this dude yet his hairline looks better than mine -_-
word his hailrine on point
Chase Stacks no shit man
Black don't crack.
I love him so much. True Legend! Over 65 million records sold, 8 Grammys and the voice of a Angel!
Chris and usher should work more together It will be good for R&B
Imagine how big of a collab album would be. I just don't get why they don't
Chris is abusive and shouldn't be admired anymore
@@ChildrensRightsFirst947 your name says It all
What a sad individual....
I ❤️u Mr Raymond

Confessions is still in my top 5 of R&B albums of all time.
Usher probably out danced Chris Brown just like he out sung him on New Flame. No offense Chris.
But chris out did him by having better lookin girfriends
Eduardo David Cantu without question
Eduardo David Cantu
lol
Probably out danced Chris what the fuck. Usher is frightened to go in a dance battle with Chris because chris will murder him on the dance floor. He cant even answer the question. He's scared
I have respect for Usher but the dude cannot beat chris brown in dancing....Chris is in a whole new level..
Usher been in the music business for 20 years and he's still young. Nothing but respect for him.
CB is great at freestyling but Usher's style, esp his pop and lock, connects with the music and looks great to watch but CB definitely edges him when it comes to pure energy and creativity so shout out to both of them.
Usher got hella hits
I agree Usher has grown a lot he's had a huge career, now he's enjoying himself, great interview btw my fav Usher song is Lovers and Friends 🙌
YO
Usher is such a gentleman and we'll spoken.
Yea but he hangs out with that trash bag Chris Brown
hahaha I can't see Michael Jackson saying "Yo whats good, my nigga" R.I.P. to him though!
If michael jackson was alive right now, he would ask you to smoke one for him- rick ross
I don't know about saying the n word, but Michael is said to have cursed a lot and was really funny.
I love usher he seems like a cool guy to be around.Everytime i see usher he always have a big smile on his face and always seem happy.He so postitve thats y i love him .i could listen to usher talk all day . Usher has a beautiful smile it makes me smile and happy good interview

Chris Sheppard Twork It Out is a underrated classic song by Usher glad Im not the only one who has that song at the top of my Usher's song list
I like that list especially Twerk It Out but how can you leave out "Nice & Slow"???
Climax?
I am so, so glad to hear that Usher has taken August under his wing :). I think that young man has so much potential and is a real dude. He is rough around the edges, but he is young and with some positive guidance he can go far. I just love you Usher for being such a great but humble person! Love you, love you, love you!
The greatest usher song of all time so far: it a tie between u make me wanna, yeah, and confessions
khalil m.i.a U GOT IT BAD
man they dont make artists like usher no more man. pause. das dat nigga right there man.
If usher's new concert is anything like his 8701 concerts my life would be made! This guy has SO many hits it's crazy. Sn: August Alsina is cool & all but his voice gets annoying after a while..I just don't see him lasting long in this music industry in my opinion
You right, you can't listen to August on repeat. He starts sounding like a sheep having an orgasm. Usher is a real soulful artist. His music is classics and it's more relatable to everyone.
That 8701 concert was everything!
Lol yeah that's what I said about August too & you're so right about usher he's already a legend in my eyes DELIONAGA
dom williams EVERYTHING!!! I stay watching that concert on youtube.
DELIONAGA LMAO
Usher is truly an inspiration......August will have a great time learner and living UR experience. God Bless

D. Foxx usher came out big in 1997, that's less than 20 years man.

This is probably one of the best interviews i've seen. the way they play off each other and ask relevant shit, cudos

His 90's music is wayyyy better than any of those songs he named
Yea well should say that you prefer old usher 1990-2004 he kind of changed his music after confessions or his relationship at that time
Usher is always a great interview, that dude so calm and knows how to answer every question thrown at him
I love Hot 97 interviews! Ebro is the life of the party and Usher is amazing! Wow! I met him once and sold him some earphones and this interview just validates why I was starstruck when he came to my store! :)
Starts talking about MJ at 8:43
Talks about MJ saying "nigga" at 10:20

I don't think "we" care
juniortim33 Obviously "we" do, because "we" commented!
I agree
Damn right
lol no Chris Brown doesn't dance nearly as well as Usher, who has YEARS of experience.
Yall sleeping on Omarion , that brotha can dance. I will love to see all 3 of them dance off. Chris goes hard with his dances he put his emotions in the dance while Usher is just so smooth as if he has been doing it from birth, Omarion is creative he will do some shit that will have you wanting to get up and try it.
I can't get past "Oscar Pistorius played the bass!" Lol I was like who?!
Damn girl...
Lol
I have grown up with Ush. We are the same age. I feel like I know him. Lol. Time sure does fly!
Usher is so cool...I met him a couple months ago and he was so nice and just chill
I love watching this segment simply because Usher sounds so optimistic. I love his optimism.
I just love u so much. I watch you every night Usher. I can't help myself!!!

If they are referring to the IHEARTRAIDO "New Flame" performance Usher did not beat Chris Brown. They HAVE to be watching s different performance than the one I saw.
That your he's talking about at 15:20, damn I was at one of those concerts. It was in Atlanta and Usher had a lot of folks come perform. I remember Luda, Ciara, John Legend, Kanye of course, etc
"cuz im a father" ... pauses video, writes this comment and closes window lol
I love what usher say about us been connected and moving on to the next thing! So true!
This was a great interview. They need to do more interviews like this
And to be honest idk why ppl compare usher and chris brown. Usher is a legend in the game and an Ol G. There is no comparing usher. The comparison should be between chris brown and omarion. Even tho ppl sleep on omarion
Omarion got dance moves.
I love Usher!! hes so talented!!

Unlike most celebrities, ***** at least tries to be a good person and better himself. He seems more aware of his role model status to young people, other minorities and musicians compared to when he first started out.
@ 3:58 they talk about Chris brown your welcome 💯😁✌
Love it.. I really look up to ya usher keep it 100%
Rosenberg kept trying to invite himself to the game. LOL
Am I the only one who peeped Laura's face when Usher was speaking on MJ, LOL at the 7:06 mark. LOL she was excited
Yes! Usher is #1 on my list, I respect his music and everything he accomplished !.
Usher is basically saying he burned his shoes to let c.b know hes passing the dancing torch to him. Chris brown is a great dancer but usher is solidified and doesnt have to prove a damn thing!
I love #Usher...his so real
usher is so sweet
I love his smile!
Burn is my favorite Usher song, great video too.
Enjoyed this interview!

Usher looks like he's not aging.
Usher Is the Greatest. Period!!!
Think of You...is my favorite. To this day. Video still 🔥 too. T-Boz did a great job being the choreographer for this video. 👏
I love that song too
There are no words to measure your presence
Truthfully. Micheal will crush Usher, Usher will crush Chris, and Chris will crush Mario or the next dude coming through. But they really have their own dance style. So really, no comparison.
Truth
Toni DaMan Nah Usher more experienced but CB is just the more talented dancer
Chris will crush all 💯😐
Respect is everything
Think of You was my songgggg!!!! I was in grammar school and I was just in love! My Way was an amazing album!!! I was in the 7th grade Lol
LMAO ebro talking about oscar pistorious.
Manwadu T. He's South African that Oscar
Man,Usher is STILL FINE.

Jayy Nice 😂😂😂😂
Usher is the last Michael Jackson dancers
I love USHER!!! But why does he have his chain tucked like Deebo about to take the chain his gran mama gave him 😂
lmaoooo
