I’m not mad at it. He has a lot of hits and seems to be liked by most generations. 
 

He has most of these songs to choose from for a set list:

 

You Make Me Wanna…

My Way

Nice and Slow

You Don’t Have to Call
Yeah!

U Got it Bad

U Remind Me

My Boo

Lovers and Friends

Burn

Confessions

Love in this Club 

Caught Up

OMG

DJ Got Us Falling in Love 

I Don’t Mind 

 

 

 

He has so many hits, seeing this listed out and knowing you’re still missing Scream, Climax, More, U Don’t Have to Call, Without You, etc. What a catalogue to choose from   I’m so hype 

[Mr. Blue_Shirt]

I know that people on this thread already clockedt it before but imagine seeing someone like Usher and his discography and thinking that he doesn't deserve to headline a Superbowl Halftime Show

 

If artists such as Maroon 5 & Justin Timberlake, who already performed 3 times mind you, did it so Usher is well capable to do this show on his own

So his last hit was in 2004? 

Wisdom has been chasing you, but you have always been faster.

[Squall]

He's a very good performer and has the hits but it feels quite late, they should have offered him the spot 10 years ago.

The uncultured ass white homosexuals in here  Usher has more hits than your faves has songs   We’re not even going to get started on his stage presence

 

I don’t understand why yall love being ignorant towards black artists lmao. 

The forum really has gone to the pits and I've noticed this is more of an issue now compared to 2-3 years ago which is really sad to see

You used google to look up when that was released and not the songs after?

I’m not senile enough to be interested in rappers that were popular 20 years ago

You’re an idiot and it’s not a cute look.

I am 19 and I know tons of usher songs and I dont even listen to male singers like that- Y'all are delusional for calling his music forgotten. My mom's ex BF went to the same gym as him years ago here in Atlanta which is cool

I don’t get this sentiment. Prince and Madonna performed like 20 years after their peaks for example..

[FameFatale]

Without you would be a really good closer song

That will be completely uneventful

You can’t just do a drive-by like this and not defend it. People are DONE with schticks.

 

He’ll be infinitely better than Justin Timberlake who was his direct competition on urban radio when he first started. That’s for sure.

[Click Clack]

 

he’s a fantastic performer, not many can keep up with bey

True but they were on another level. Madonna was still a huge name, especially since she was the biggest touring artist at the time.

Congrats for being the author of the worst ATRL post of 2023 so far!

It's a BONAFIDE classic that is STILL literally on most playlists and ALWAYS on radio.

Not a rapper RACIST, get over it.

I honestly don’t get proud idiocy like this. Google and Wikipedia are free. His Billboard Hot 100 history has been posted here already.

 

Reported for ageism too by the way.

You are making Lambs look horrible. Usher is an R&B singer, not a RAPPER. One of the best vocalists actually. Silly ass. 

 

 

[DAP]

He’s a great performer and yes we’ll take Usher over the urinal in her Fleetwood Mac cosplay

[My Tears Ricochet]

Hopefully he's a co-headliner, not a solo one. I know he has hits, but he's a 2000s fad, so it'd be boring just to watch him performing all the forgotten hits except Yeah!

[Arcadius]

I know I shouldn't be surprised at ATRL's ignorance but the way some of y'all are acting like he's some one hit wonder from the 90s is sending me.

Let’s fuc-king gooooooooo!!!
