Sammie On Usher:"Usher has set the blueprint to follow on having longevity"
"Usher is definitely my favorite artist and I watched Usher grow up from a boy to a man and have a long career since he started in the game at 13. I feel Usher has set the blueprint to follow on having longevity. I remember during “Here I Stand” when he got married and had kids things got rough for him but he still bounced back with this project. I feel he showed us that even if you have a set back there is a chance you can bounce back."
"Usher est définitivement mon artiste favori et j'ai regardé Usher grandir et passer du stade de jeune homme à celui d'homme et avoir une longue carrière puisqu'il a commencé à l'âge de 13 ans.
Je pense que Usher a mis en place le plan à suivre en matière de longévité. Je me souviens durant la période de "Here I Stand" quand il s'était marié et qu'il a eu des enfants, les choses ont été difficiles pour lui mais il a rebondit avec ce projet-Raymond V. Raymond. Je pense qu'il nous a montré que même lorsque l'on a des moments difficiles il y a une possibilité de rebondir".

Usher parties at Pier One, records song with Chris Brown
Reggae Sumfest organiser Johnny Gourzong has expressed pleasure at having international R&B star Usher as the headline act on International Night II, Saturday, July 24 and agreed that Usher's performance would certainly go down as one of the best in the entire 18-year history of Reggae Sumfest.
"Despite the rain, Usher pulled out the crowd on Saturday night ... and he is so easy to work with," the Summerfest director disclosed.
R&B star Usher enjoyed a slice of Jamaica while here for last weekend’s Reggae Sumfest. Here he shares lens time with Anna Kay Russell while hanging out at Montego Bay’s Pier 1.
"You know, there are some international acts who are just so difficult to host. They want to leave the island as soon as the show ends; well ...not Usher. He stayed on and he has had a great time in Jamaica. He likes ox-tail and jerk chicken and he was just enjoying the island."

R&B crooner Usher has his eye on a career in ladies’ underwear.
"I love a woman's curves, her shape,” the 31-year-old told Glamour. “And you should know that I'm a fan of lingerie, I mean more than most men. Kiki De Montparnasse and Agent Provocateur – I know all the names."
“[Jimmy Choo boss] Tamara Mellon is a friend of mine and I keep telling her we have to do something cool together, like design a lingerie line through Jimmy Choo,” he said, adding that his ideal woman would be “naked under a trench coat except for some Cosabella underwear and Jimmy Choo shoes”.
Despite all the sexy talk, the OMG singer has vowed to stay single. “I just got out of a two-year marriage, so I'm not interested in a relationship,” he explained. Usher has two young sons from his marriage to Tameka Foster, which ended in June 2009.

Usher suprised his kids love his latest hit 'OMG'
Usher says he knew his latest song would be a hit in the clubs, but he didn't think that would translate into his own home.
The singer told The Associated Press this week that he knew "OMG" would have "incredible energy" but adds: "Did I know that my children would love it at 1 and 2? I only hoped."
The thumping dance tune is produced by will.i.am (wil eye am) and is his ninth No. 1 single. It's from his gold-selling album "Raymond v. Raymond."
The 31-year-old is the father of 2-year-old sons Usher Raymond V and 1-year-old Naviyd (nah-VEED') Ely Raymond. He divorced their mother, Tameka Foster, last year.
Usher credits will.i.am for the song's success. He says the Black Eyed Peas leader always "keeps his finger on the pulse of where the world is and what they're listening."

Usher, Drake And Nicki Minaj To Play New York's Summer Jam
New York radio station Hot 97 announced the lineup for the annual mega show Summer Jam on Monday afternoon (May 3). The event takes place June 6 at the New Meadowlands Stadium in New Jersey, with Usher headlining a lineup that includes Drake, Nicki Minaj, DJ Khaled and Ludacris.
For headliner Usher, the top spot at the show is another feather in his cap for what is proving to be a strong year, which has already included a #1 album.
"This album means so much to my career," Usher recently said told MTV News about Raymond v. Raymond. "I think this is the one time where I'm able to put it all in, emotionally and the good times — super-freaky and then also super-emotional. Raymond v. Raymond, artistically, is one of my greatest pieces of work, not only just because of the content, but also the people whom I got involved in it: T.I., Will.I.Am, Puff, Nicki Minaj."

Usher: "Justin Bieber Is Like A Son To Me"
Usher has again praised his young protégé Justin Bieber.
Explaining why he chose to sign the 'Baby' singer in the first place and make him the overnight pop sensation he is now, the R&B star - who just dropped his new 'Raymond VS Raymond' CD this month - said: "I think it was, first and foremost, his charming, winning, timeless attitude. It's as though he had been here before."
Usher added to the Los Angeles Times: "When I met him, his personality won me over. When he sang, I realized we were dealing with the real thing. His voice just spoke to the type of music I would want to be associated with.
"And it wasn't a gimmick - we had to teach him how to dance and be on stage, but he really had a good voice," added the 'OMG' singer.

'Idol' contestants on Usher as a mentor: He 'nailed it!' (L.A Times)
Does the guest mentor have a major impact on the quality of "Idol" performances during any given week? Well, if you felt like Tuesday's soul and R&B night showed a little more oomph than the sleepy pseudo-themes of the first couple of shows, then hats off to Usher. (Sunglasses are another matter).
Speaking to reporters after the show (an "Idol" first!), the contestants simply gushed over the hit-maker's ability to hone in on individual strengths and weaknesses. "I think he really tailored every comment and advice for each one of us," said "Big Mike" Lynch, who sang India.Arie's "Ready for Love." "You could tell he did his homework on us. That was crazy."
Andrew Garcia had a similar experience on his redemption night. "He just told me that I need to do my acoustic and not focus on what the judges are gonna say or what anybody is thinking -- just to do what I do," said the Moreno Valley native who sang Chris Brown's "Forever." "And he liked it! That was crazy coming from Usher."
Lee Dewyze added that, in his case, Usher simply "nailed it on the head." "He said to me, 'The biggest problem is your confidence,'" Lee recalled. "And I was, like, 'How the hell did you know that?'"

INTERVIEW: Usher talks Raymond Vs Raymond With The New York Times:"When people buy my albums, they buy them for the connection"
Here is an interview of Usher by the famous and prestigious newspaper The New York Times.
I found this really interesting for many reasons...check it out!
The Rumors Say Usher’s Making a Comeback
ATLANTA
ON a recent afternoon at an airy recording studio here, Usher Raymond IV leaned back in a chair and sang along as “There Goes My Baby,” a slow-burning ballad from his forthcoming album, “Raymond v. Raymond” (Jive), played over the sound system, occasionally picking up an unlighted cigar, which he rolled in his mouth. When the song ended, this 31-year-old singer, who records under his first name, motioned for an engineer to shut the sound system off and launched into an explanation of the tune’s origins.
“The feeling of it is if you have a true connection with somebody, no matter what happens in life, it will always come back,” he said. “No matter how long it takes to make it through whatever issues pull you apart, something pulls you back together. The rest is between the lines.”
