WhenĀ ConfessionsĀ dropped in 2004, it changed the R&B scene forever. Since then, things have been relatively quiet from Usher - until now.
Usher Raymond is an absolute musical legend.
Born in Texas, and raised in Tennessee and Georgia, he's one of the best selling artists of the 2000s.His first album, Usher dropped in 1994.
And Usher followed it up with 1997'sĀ My Way,Ā which spawned his first Billboard top 100 singles.His third album, 8701 truly established him as a legend.
It sold over eight million copies, and earned Usher 2 Grammy Awards in 2002 and 2003.But there was one record that's the true Usher classic.
ConfessionsĀ was one of the best selling albums of the decade, shifting over twenty million copies worldwide.The first 4 singles from the album went straight to number one.
Honestly, whoĀ doesn'tĀ remember grooving along to "Yeah!", "Burn", "Confessions Part II" and "My Boo?"Confessions is a total R&B classic.
It was both critically acclaimed and popular with the public.But since then, Usher has never matched the album's success.
He's continued to work in the industry and create R&B tunes, but nothing has toppedĀ Confessions.Until now.
SinceĀ ConfessionsĀ dropped, fans have been eagerly awaiting a follow-up album of similarly banging tunes.And now it seems it might be happening.
We'reĀ soĀ excited for this news.Over the years, there have been romors about Confessions 2.
And the latest news seems to confirm what we've all been hoping for.And now we've had a sneak peek.
