That's a tough one. Part of me says yes, part says no. I feel like he has tarnished his legacy a bit

I'm actually gonna say no. I think a big part of being iconic is the ability to evolve....and he never really has past Confessions.

I don't. There's nothing really iconic about him to me.

Sure he had a nice run, but I don't really see anyone trying to emulate anything he does.

He hasn't really left a mark.
Title: Re: Do you think that Usher is in an icon?

The My Way - Confessions eras are iconic imo.

Usher has been extremely successful.
But he isn't influential, he hasn't contributed anything to the culture of music besides charts  :dead:

He's only really had 3 memorable eras in his whole career.
No one is trying to emulate FLUSH though  :dead:

This is EXACTLY how i feel. Like yea he has some great stats (Getting a diamond album, ESPECIALLY as a male R&B Artist is no small feat) but Usher is so MEH to me. Like NOTHING about him is extraordinary or even iconic like to me. He had a great run, and that's about it
Title: Re: Do you think that Usher is in an icon?
Post by: GRAND on October 10, 2016, 02:49:24 PM
Of course

He'll be remembered for the hits and great vidyas and performances

and that's about it

He didn't try too hard to make his own lane, he kinda went with the flow his entire career

Post by: Vonc2002 on October 10, 2016, 02:58:38 PM
Like forreal, break it down
He ain't the best dancer and isn't some world renowned performer

He isn't known as having a really amazing voice

He hasn't had good music in forever, nor has he ever been known for making like really iconic music.

He has nothing to sustain his career or legacy which is why his fall from grace has been  so iconic
Title: Re: Do you think that Usher is in an icon?

Usher is one artist that will always mentioned when talking about music from the 2000s, and R&B males period

Title: Re: Do you think that Usher is in an icon?
Post by: jtwoeleven on October 10, 2016, 03:01:41 PM
I wanna say so but he's kinda borderline. He's more of a veteran imo, due to his longevity and period of success. He will be remembered for his looks, his performance skills, and his success, which includes his biggest singles/albums/videos etc. But Usher doesn't really offer any distinct vocal stylings and his music wasn't really innovative. He lacks the proper impact and influence necessary to that of an icon/legend.
Title: Re: Do you think that Usher is in an icon?
Post by: SouravMay on October 10, 2016, 03:02:36 PM
Male R&B singers except for Bert or the neo soul gorls have all been boring tho

Thats why i get why SOMEONE could say it because i agree that he is synonymous with the 2000s, but after so long without something to refer back to, that won't last imo. Like malcolm said, he doesn't even have any really iconic moments to reflect back on. At some point he'll just be a moment in time and not something we refer back to because there's no reason to :dead:

I would consider Beyonce & Lady Gaga to be icons. They have left an undeniable mark.

Usher has not.

I would even say Rihanna is more of an icon than Usher.

"U make me wanna" saved his career

Title: Re: Do you think that Usher is in an icon?

and to make matters worse he doesn't have any signature looks or iconic videos/moments like his peers do :kii:

isn't his signature song a Crunk song? I have never.  :plzstop: And let's keep it 100, Ginuwine has more iconic songs and impact than Flush! No wonder he fell off so bad and doesn't have a solid loyal fanbase lol!

I consider him apart the same group of young r&b stars that rose in the 90's. With Bran, Liy & Mon. Throw Ginu' in there too. They are all R&B icons at the very least. Their contributions to the genre can't be denied.

There is no doubt he has strayed in into the lane of lateness but for My Way, 8701 & Confessions alone...

That's 3 big eras. Half these hoes are lucky to have 2 big ones. Give this man his dew!  :uhh:
He has been a mainstay in the game.

In the very beginning, Chris would name Usher as one of his biggest influences constantly. But once he got as big as Ush' and became his peer, he stopped naming him as one of his influences (as a lot of these artists tend to do. See: Dawn). Now all he mentions is Michael. But you're not about to tell me a 12, 13 year old Chris wasn't inspired by Usher. Usher was at his peak when Chris was that age.

Ne-Yo used to name him as well.

Now this i agree with, Omarion and a lot of the dudes that came out from 2005-8 referenced Ursh. He was kinda Beyonce's counterpart, but like someone said he tarnished his legacy.

After that "Confessions" album I think every male artist at some point was inspired by Usher for a short period of time.
The thing is.... that influence didn't last

They really were. Usher just didn't have what it took to translate that popularity into great artistry at some point. Say what u want about Beyonce, she knew she had to evolve and becoming a staple in SOMETHING. Ironically Michael was the blueprint to ushers career and BEYONCE became the Michael Jackson of her time :dead:

Well in Usher's defense. Usher and Brandy were the counterparts, when Bey replaced Bran around '03/'04 and it was only around 2011/2012 Bey left Usher completely in the dust.

Usher lasted long, but he just never left a true mark

I always thought Usher was nothing more than a sexed up MJ clone, but he did make a mark during his prime. The problem is his entire career post "Confessions" has been him jumping on one trend after the other and doing whatever he can to stay relevant.

Wouldn't be surprised if he did a reality show anytime soon tbh.

He's one of the most successful artists of all time
has a long list of classic hits
one of the best and most influential male performers, especially of anyone ALIVE today
or from the 90s
that pretty much summarizes it

No. I wouldn't call him an "icon" so to say, but DEFINITELY a "superstar". He accomplished a lot in his career. As far as icon, I don't think he ever made his OWN lane or created something to be FOLLOWED. He always kinda mimicked his faves (ie. Michael Jackson). And I'm not saying that there is anything wrong with that, because there isn't. It just doesn't fit the mold of what I would consider an "icon". He made a mark on the industry no doubt.

I wouldn't call Justin Timberlake an icon either. He & Usher are kinda in the same vein.

Justin just hasn't fallen off yet.

Michael Jackson was never about sex, and Urban or crunk like Usher
if Bran isnt a clone Usher isnt either
he's influenced by Michael's dancing like Bran is influenced by Whitney's vocals

Yea, i don't necessarily see JT as an icon but im sure he'll be revered as such. From his HUGE career with Nsync to his massive  solo success............still to this day, the whites are gonna treasure him i believe. How long did that terrible song sit at the top of itunes? No one else from his time could do that

Usher is an R&B legend with more classics than any other artist his age.  His catalog (minus the last 2 albums) is pretty much flawless.  The Confessions album went Diamond and he was pretty much the biggest artist in the game at one point.  Back in the 90's, everyone wanted to "dance like Usher" or had Usher posters on their walls.  He was able to adapt at the start of the 2000's pioneering the futuristic Neptunes sound to R&B and later adapting and pioneering to the crunk sound with Lil Jon.  Being adaptable is the key to longevity.  His music is his impact.  Like many artists who have huge blockbuster albums, though, it became his downfall.  It took Polow leaking "Love In This Club" for him to even release another single.  The impact of his previous album helped that song fly to #1 within weeks.  But he steered away from his heartthrob image, got married, acted crazy on TRL defending Tameka, sued his biggest fansite for hating on his wife, and the Here I Stand album was a little too mature for his core audience.  By 30, he was cooling off.

But is he iconic in the way Britney or Beyonce are?

No.  And that's simply because outside of the music, there isn't really anything interesting about Usher.  No iconic outfits, no real iconic routines (even though he is a phonemonal dancer) like "Remember The Time", "Thriller", "Vogue", "Rhythm Nation", "Single Ladies", "I'm A Slave 4 U"......  No snake, no metal glove or alter ego, no bodysuit with the ass out....

There's no frenzy.  There's no real hype.  He can probably walk down the street without causing too much of a commotion.  And now he's sitting on The Voice alongside Shakira (who's being paid more).  When Mariah did American Idol, she was paid the most.  When Britney did X-Factor, she was paid the most.  And sadly, that just makes him seem desperate and washed up.  Not to mention, he's on Snapchat desperately taking nude pictures.  Didn't he just star in a movie?  If he were truly ICONIC, everything he does would in someway become an extension of his iconography.  He's just regular as hell now.

I mean I was just making a point that all those artist have been awarded the biggest award in music and they've consistently overlook Usher even though he came out before all of them and has one of the biggest albums of all time
The Vangaurd award isn't a "white" award, not when it's named after Michael Jackson

But is he iconic in the way Britney or Beyonce are?

No.  And that's simply because outside of the music, there isn't really anything interesting about Usher.  No iconic outfits, no real iconic routines (even though he is a phonemonal dancer) like "Remember The Time", "Thriller", "Vogue", "Rhythm Nation", "Single Ladies", "I'm A Slave 4 U"......  No snake, no metal glove or alter ego, no bodysuit with the ass out....

There's no frenzy.  There's no real hype.  He can probably walk down the street without causing too much of a commotion.  And now he's sitting on The Voice alongside Shakira (who's being paid more).  When Mariah did American Idol, she was paid the most.  When Britney did X-Factor, she was paid the most.  And sadly, that just makes him seem desperate and washed up.  Not to mention, he's on Snapchat desperately taking nude pictures.  Didn't he just star in a movie?  If he were truly ICONIC, everything he does would in someway become an extension of his iconography.  He's just regular as hell now.

Usher is an R&B legend.  But he is not ICONIC.
this is BS and probably cuz you're gay

Where was Usher's mother when he was recording these R Kelly leftovers before he hit puberty? I'm disgusted.
she sent him to stay with Diddy
and he, has always said that wasnt the best place for a kid
the songs didnt sound like Molest at all though
more Jodeci

So she was a neglectful parent who let her child be sexualized for a chance at stardom.

How sad.

Usher is an R&B legend with more classics than any other artist his age.  His catalog (minus the last 2 albums) is pretty much flawless.  The Confessions album went Diamond and he was pretty much the biggest artist in the game at one point.  Back in the 90's, everyone wanted to "dance like Usher" or had Usher posters on their walls.  He was able to adapt at the start of the 2000's pioneering the futuristic Neptunes sound to R&B and later adapting and pioneering to the crunk sound with Lil Jon.  Being adaptable is the key to longevity.  His music is his impact.  Like many artists who have huge blockbuster albums, though, it became his downfall.  It took Polow leaking "Love In This Club" for him to even release another single.  The impact of his previous album helped that song fly to #1 within weeks.  But he steered away from his heartthrob image, got married, acted crazy on TRL defending Tameka, sued his biggest fansite for hating on his wife, and the Here I Stand album was a little too mature for his core audience.  By 30, he was cooling off.

Blonde was talking about popular moments, dances, or fashion statements that made the aforementioned artists iconic.
It had nothing to do with them being "cunt" :dead:
Usher doesnt have any of those which he mentioned, no real pop culture impact
yes he does
him & chilli's whole relationship was a huge pop culture moment
and the whole "do the A-Town STOMP!" part of Yeah was a dance craze
and most men wear pretty much standard clothes
but the fitted cap, Blazer & Jeans look was definitely a fashion trend for men

ya'll just dot recognize because he's not a female swinging around a wig

That "blazer/hat" look you're referring to is thanks to Russell Simmon and Phat Farm's 2003 line an ENTIRE YEAR before Usher started purchasing the clothes and dressing that way.  Usher did not start anything.

Do you fags think someone sits up and looks up the HISTORY of every Ciara dance move?

Nobody is trying to lie @ Janets expense

And the fact that only HUGE jans fans are familiar should tell you something

DING DING DING
Only HUGE jans fans. They added it to a tribute because it's one of her most known dances. Why would they choose to tribute her with some mess no one knows? Please :kii:

I reconigized it once I saw the video

But it wasn't something that IMMEDIATELY popped up in my head

That was my point.

To me, it was just another great moment in her videography, but no RN or Scream

Hell, I know the 'Lonely' choreography immediately. Hats, arm swings, gay backup dancers.

Did you miss the part where I said

'Do you think Ciara fans study the history of her every dance move'?

Because, that's what I said.

If you got 'I don't remember Ciara performances' from that, then you can't read or you're desperately looking for ways to make snide remarks lol.

Blonde was talking about popular moments, dances, or fashion statements that made the aforementioned artists iconic.
It had nothing to do with them being "cunt" :dead:
Usher doesnt have any of those which he mentioned, no real pop culture impact
yes he does
him & chilli's whole relationship was a huge pop culture moment
and the whole "do the A-Town STOMP!" part of Yeah was a dance craze
and most men wear pretty much standard clothes
but the fitted cap, Blazer & Jeans look was definitely a fashion trend for men

ya'll just dot recognize because he's not a female swinging around a wig

Nigga, please. You're playing, right?

That "blazer/hat" look you're referring to is thanks to Russell Simmon and Phat Farm's 2003 line an ENTIRE YEAR before Usher started purchasing the clothes and dressing that way.  Usher did not start anything.

STOP! 

And boy, show me the impact of the GOD DAMN A-Town stomp?  Where????  The "A-Town Stomp" was shit they were already doing in the club in Atlanta.  He didn't create anything.  He was just naming popular Atlanta dances at the end of "Yeah!".  Your examples are AWFUL.

They really were. Usher just didn't have what it took to translate that popularity into great artistry at some point. Say what u want about Beyonce, she knew she had to evolve and becoming a staple in SOMETHING. Ironically Michael was the blueprint to ushers career and BEYONCE became the Michael Jackson of her time :dead:

Stan for your Queen then

But Usher is iconic Hun

Huge songs, huge albums, big sales, but lack the impact on wider pop culture

But even toni>>>>>>>
She has an ICONIC sound and style. She's had iconic moments. Before jlos dress, TONI was the one that had the showstopping dress. She's more of a legend imo tbh


Lol The reason why y'all think Toni and Faith Evan's are icons and Usher's not is because you happen to like Toni and Faith better.  Y'all probably just like female artists more. 

I love female artists, too.  But, by now, anyone should respect Usher's contribution to the music industry.

Look u don't know me and don't know who and why i consider someone an icon. Usher being a male has fck all to do with him not being an icon. Faith aint no icon to me either btw.    Ur allowed to have your opinion but don't try to diminish mine, especially with some pathetic ass excuse like "because he's male"  :dead:

Well i do think faith is more important to R&B music than usher, but i dont think she's an icon. Usher's music is SHIT. U being shocked that it isn't held high in regard is beyond me. Usher doesn't have a catalog of classics. He has hits that were cool atm, so  someone saying faith definitely wouldn't "shock" me. That's like someone being shocked that MC Hammer isn't revered in Rap :dead:

I did like that tho. I actually forgot about burn until i just saw it there :plzstop:
Usher just isn't an icon to me and his music leaves much to be desired. If he has ANY classic records, id say they come from his 2nd album.

Usher is an R&B legend with more classics than any other artist his age.  His catalog (minus the last 2 albums) is pretty much flawless.  The Confessions album went Diamond and he was pretty much the biggest artist in the game at one point.  Back in the 90's, everyone wanted to "dance like Usher" or had Usher posters on their walls.  He was able to adapt at the start of the 2000's pioneering the futuristic Neptunes sound to R&B and later adapting and pioneering to the crunk sound with Lil Jon.  Being adaptable is the key to longevity.  His music is his impact.  Like many artists who have huge blockbuster albums, though, it became his downfall.  It took Polow leaking "Love In This Club" for him to even release another single.  The impact of his previous album helped that song fly to #1 within weeks.  But he steered away from his heartthrob image, got married, acted crazy on TRL defending Tameka, sued his biggest fansite for hating on his wife, and the Here I Stand album was a little too mature for his core audience.  By 30, he was cooling off.

But is he iconic in the way Britney or Beyonce are?

No.  And that's simply because outside of the music, there isn't really anything interesting about Usher.  No iconic outfits, no real iconic routines (even though he is a phonemonal dancer) like "Remember The Time", "Thriller", "Vogue", "Rhythm Nation", "Single Ladies", "I'm A Slave 4 U"......  No snake, no metal glove or alter ego, no bodysuit with the ass out....

There's no frenzy.  There's no real hype.  He can probably walk down the street without causing too much of a commotion.  And now he's sitting on The Voice alongside Shakira (who's being paid more).  When Mariah did American Idol, she was paid the most.  When Britney did X-Factor, she was paid the most.  And sadly, that just makes him seem desperate and washed up.  Not to mention, he's on Snapchat desperately taking nude pictures.  Didn't he just star in a movie?  If he were truly ICONIC, everything he does would in someway become an extension of his iconography.  He's just regular as hell now.

Usher is an R&B legend.  But he is not ICONIC.

Nigga, please. You're playing, right?

That "blazer/hat" look you're referring to is thanks to Russell Simmon and Phat Farm's 2003 line an ENTIRE YEAR before Usher started purchasing the clothes and dressing that way.  Usher did not start anything.

and the whole "do the A-Town STOMP!" part of Yeah was a dance craze
and most men wear pretty much standard clothes
but the fitted cap, Blazer & Jeans look was definitely a fashion trend for men

ya'll just dot recognize because he's not a female swinging around a wig

Nigga, please. You're playing, right?

That "blazer/hat" look you're referring to is thanks to Russell Simmon and Phat Farm's 2003 line an ENTIRE YEAR before Usher started purchasing the clothes and dressing that way.  Usher did not start anything.

STOP! 

And boy, show me the impact of the GOD DAMN A-Town stomp?  Where????  The "A-Town Stomp" was shit they were already doing in the club in Atlanta.  He didn't create anything.  He was just naming popular Atlanta dances at the end of "Yeah!".  Your examples are AWFUL.

I see him as the male version of Toni Braxton
Huge songs, huge albums, big sales, but lack the impact on wider pop culture
but they made a big mark in R&B
But even toni>>>>>>>
She has an ICONIC sound and style. She's had iconic moments. Before jlos dress, TONI was the one that had the showstopping dress. She's more of a legend imo tbh


Lol The reason why y'all think Toni and Faith Evan's are icons and Usher's not is because you happen to like Toni and Faith better.  Y'all probably just like female artists more. 

I love female artists, too.  But, by now, anyone should respect Usher's contribution to the music industry.
exactly
thats what I meant by how they "Oh Brit! Bey! Madonna!"
they will not recognize men on here
We recognizem MJ, Prince and R.Kelly on here ALL the time, those 3 have made lasting impacts on pop culture which makes them icons
Usher hasnt

yall run to those generic ass names and that just pushes my point further. There are younger men than them who have made impacts on pop culture and yes Usher is one of them. The only reason y'all are downplaying his is because you can't relate.

some people on the net use the word 'icon' or 'iconic' too easily.

Icon means something huge, someone that left an impact worldwide and for music history. There's only a few that are real icons, and mostly are from the 80s/90s:

Michael Jackson, Madonna, Prince, Whitney.....

And if we talk from different eras: Aretha, Nina Simone...

Usher? hell fucking No, lol. I mean...... lets be serious here guys. None from my family know who is Usher, that should tell u if he's an icon or not. An icon doesnt mean being an icon in just 1 country or 2, it has to be a worldwide impact and in the long run, not just having some hits here and there. Hits there are thousands, that doesnt make you an Icon

Madonna has a bigger impact than Britney, but Britney still made an impact
Usher made an impact as well. Chris, Trey, NE-YO, Jason Derulo, Miguel, August etc have all also named Usher as an influence, and their videos and performances look way more like Usher's than Mike, Prince or Roberts

I always thought Usher was nothing more than a sexed up MJ clone, but he did make a mark during his prime. The problem is his entire career post "Confessions" has been him jumping on one trend after the other and doing whatever he can to stay relevant.

Wouldn't be surprised if he did a reality show anytime soon tbh.

Mike had the moonwalk. Hell, even ciara has the damn matrix. There is no iconic look that's associated with him. Madonna had the cone titties. Janet has the rhythm nation look.

I don't see Usher as an icon. He's successful and a veteran, but not an icon.

There is literally nothing iconic about him.

exactly. Every person who stans for male r & b heavy stans for usher's competition. Everyone else here not into it like that. So why would the opinions of a female r & b forum hold weight on what's impactful in MALE r & b? Makes no sense.

They want this competition between us, but I don?t feel any competition towards Usher. I feel that without Usher, there would be no me, there would be no Chris Brown, there would be no Trey Songz. He paved the way for us, so for him to get that honour was kind of special for me. I feel that he actually deserved it.?

Speaking with Vibe in the March 2005 issue, he stated, "Usher inspires me the most because that's the position I want to be in one day. When I see where he is, it just makes me work that much harder."

Jason Derulo has paid his respects on several occasions and especially nods to Usher's performance skills.  ??Confessions, classic album and it was just start to finish awesome? My favorite performers were always people that put on a show.

Having also worked with Usher on record and on tour, Trigga told Rap-Up, "I first started collaborating work-wise on the 'I Invented Sex (Remix),' but we?ve known each other for a while and he?s always been someone I could come to for advice. Furthermore, he?s paved the way for guys like myself to even do what we do."

That?s my big brother. He let me be a part of his creative process? Everything that I ever imagined Usher was, he exceeded that in his level of vision, creativity and all of those things. And then he even took me on tour so I?m grateful to have a mentor just like that in my corner.?

." Drake told Vibe, ?There were a lot of R&B moments that meant a lot to me. Usher was a big influence in that regard. I remember ['Nice And Slow'] meant the world to me. I always liked that flow cadence. It stuck in my head for years, and I said to myself that it could be a song on it?s own. I got a chance to use it and the pattern was right. It really made sense as to what I was discussing in the verse ? I?m just paying homage to a great melody.?

Usher is widely regarded as a sex symbol from a young age, predominantly for his stage persona. Fusion states ?Usher?one of the greatest R&B sex symbols in the past 20 years, paving the way for Chris Brown, Trey Songz and Justin Bieber?used sex as a major part of his image?,[176] while VH1 considers him to be ?the sexiest male performer ever to walk a stage?.[177] People magazine named Usher the "Sexiest R&B Star" in 1998, quoting singer Monica who said on stage, the sexiness was manifest in "his movements, his gestures, the way he expresses his lyrics." Actress Adrienne Frantz who played with Usher in The Bold and the Beautiful also said "Usher definitely has a way with women. His smile is sweet and sexy at the same time", adding "he's a great kisser." [178] Usher made the cut for People magazine?s "Sexiest Men Alive" in 2004,[179] as he did 4 years later again in 2008.[180] In 2005, Madame Tussauds New York unveiled a wax figure of Usher during a competition to launch The Usher Interactive Experience.[181] Another wax figure was unveiled alongside other singers for the opening of a ?VIP room? in 2007.[182] Rihanna told MTV in 2006 "I was in love with Usher when he first came out. I was just like he's so fine![...]I thought he was the hottest thing. I think he was my first crush definitely."[183] After his marriage, the sexual nature of his music was expected to mature as The New Yorker writer Sasha Frere-Jones writes ?The challenge here is to convince us that he is a married and responsible man?grown and sexy, without sacrificing the louche, frictionless sense of play that made him famous.?[184] VH1 have listed Usher at number 9 of its 100 Sexiest Artists List.[185] According to Glamour magazine, Usher was one of the ?50 Sexiest Men of 2010?.[186] In 2012, Billboard reviewed his fashion evolution stating ?The singer came onto the scene in the '90s rocking baggy jeans and suits that made us question his celebrity status, but over the years this R&B star has developed his own signature look, rendering him a modern day fashion icon?.[187] In 2013, Complex magazine placed Usher in its ?Most Stylish R&B Singers of the 90?s" list.[188] InStyle magazine rate him both for sex appeal and style as he was included their ?Hottest Celebrity Abs? collection [189] before coming under ?37 of the Most Stylish Dads?.

He hasn't really left a mark.

Ageeed hes a vet in the game and thats it

Other artists come have come out the gate shitting on his catalouge

Hes s voice with a body

Not even a signature look style or dance for him

Where his peers (Justin, Beyonce,) and in the 90's (Brandy, Aaliyah) switched it up with every album, they had a bigger new sound, new image, new choreography, new visuals,...Usher stayed stagnant and basic.
Usher hasn't done ANYTHING groundbreaking musically or visually in his career, his biggest sound was the crunk movement and that was out a whole 2 years before "Yeah" came out and died a year after, I mean if you call singing over a crunk beat instead of rapping over it innovative and the A Town stomp iconic.... I dunno what to tell ya  :dead:
In 5 years from now we'll be talking about how artists contributed to the game, what risks they took, which albums were ahead of the curve, Usher wont be in that conversation
Title: Re: Do you think that Usher is an icon?
Post by: RAY7 on October 12, 2016, 07:03:46 AM
Usher would definitely be in the conversation of what artists brought to the game and ESPECIALLY what albums were ahead of the curve. No one mentioned in that paragraph has a bigger album than Confessions. That album basically put the B Cox sound on the map, and became the template which young male R&B artist used to base their own careers off of. Not only that but Usher brought Rico Love into the game first by signing him as a rapper then telling him to be a songwriter
He ended up writing for Bey, Kelly, BRANDY Diddy Dirty Money etc.
As the receipts in this thread show all the young male artists cite him as an influence due to his vocals, performance skills and dancing, and being one of the most successful R&B artists ever

Where his peers (Justin, Beyonce,) and in the 90's (Brandy, Aaliyah) switched it up with every album, they had a bigger new sound, new image, new choreography, new visuals,...Usher stayed stagnant and basic.
Usher hasn't done ANYTHING groundbreaking musically or visually in his career, his biggest sound was the crunk movement and that was out a whole 2 years before "Yeah" came out and died a year after, I mean if you call singing over a crunk beat instead of rapping over it innovative and the A Town stomp iconic.... I dunno what to tell ya  :dead:
In 5 years from now we'll be talking about how artists contributed to the game, what risks they took, which albums were ahead of the curve, Usher wont be in that conversation

Ray almost swayed me with all those articles, but this brought me back

I mean no one is saying he isn't successful of had one of the biggest albums of all time or he doesn't have classics

All of that: being a sex symbol, having classics, being hugely successful, and a huge influence on the young male artists after him, and saying he's not an Icon is hating. The ONLY thing is that he never went completely left field musically but if it's not broke don't fix it. I think the word y'all are trying to say is INNOVATIVE, not Icon

I've already said at one point every male R&B artist has looked up to Ush' while he was on top. They've all aspired to be in his shoes.
The thing is, if people are not still listing you as an influence even after you've passed your peak, that's says a lot.

No one in 2016 or recent years is still naming Usher as one of their main influences  :dead:

This logic makes NO sense. You are literally saying Usher's nonchanging formula broke because his sales declined, but then referenced Brandy's growth, whose sales also plummeted. You're basically saying, without saying it, that both their methods broke because both their sales declined :uhh:

you said Usher's formula worked hence him not needing to switch it up for years, when clearly it didnt work because he went from 10 million one album to 1 million to gold, so OBVIOUSLY that formula your saying was fine wasn't good enough anymore :dead:
Brandy's album underperformed because of label issue's NOT because of the material, every singer from this generation often sites FM & Afro as one of their main influences
Who was citing Here I Stand & the other albums as their's
To say Full Moon was not a risk musically when no one else was giving those complex vocals over electronic beats at that time is foolish :dead:

That is a flat out lie.

Thriller, Off The Wall, Bad and Dangerous are all insanely influential albums.

All praised for their extremely different yet brilliant and still distinctly MJ-ish style.

All of that: being a sex symbol, having classics, being hugely successful, and a huge influence on the young male artists after him, and saying he's not an Icon is hating. The ONLY thing is that he never went completely left field musically but if it's not broke don't fix it. I think the word y'all are trying to say is INNOVATIVE, not Icon
Right, they don't even make sense. Frank Ocean is innovative I guess, but that  nigga ain't  a icon.


and that coco nut keeps saying Justin is innovative. Working with 1 producer singing over the same ass beat for three albums is innovative? :kii:.

It's not necessarily about taking risks anyways, is your shit referenced or not. Bran'd first four albums are all monumental blue print works for the generations of musicians to come.

Flush ain't got records like that, except Krustfessions

MJ only has one album that's constantly referenced, and that's Thriller. Does that mean Brandy is more iconic than Mj? :dead:
People also reference Dangerous, Bad & Off The Wall, some albums are more referenced than others
Point is, they all have bodies of work that may not be as successful as Confessions but are more influential and innovative
No they don't.

Bad was critically panned and off the wall did well but it's not nearly as praised as Thriller. Thriller is the only real Mj album that gets talked about.

FM was critically panned but for most part it's a fan favourite and higly respected and referenced by her peers and vets

All of that: being a sex symbol, having classics, being hugely successful, and a huge influence on the young male artists after him, and saying he's not an Icon is hating. The ONLY thing is that he never went completely left field musically but if it's not broke don't fix it. I think the word y'all are trying to say is INNOVATIVE, not Icon
Right, they don't even make sense. Frank Ocean is innovative I guess, but that  nigga ain't  a icon.


and that coco nut keeps saying Justin is innovative. Working with 1 producer singing over the same ass beat for three albums is innovative? :kii:.
Frank Ocean? He has two albums  :dead:
I swear u were out to the bathroom when God was handing out sense.  And it aint about what producer u worked with over and over its about the moves u made musically from project to project. Rodney did both NSN and FM, does that somehow diminish the impact? Because she didn't work with a new producer? Just be quiet already :kii:

The thing is, if people are not still listing you as an influence even after you've passed your peak, that's says a lot.

No one in 2016 or recent years is still naming Usher as one of their main influences  :dead:

This shouldve been the thread closer here. Any praise usher got was because he was the top guy at one point. He isn't someone  that anyone aspires to emulate at this point because his artistry lacked his whole career and once the hits and sales disappeared, there was nothing else noteworthy to recognize him for

Jesus
you said Usher's formula worked hence him not needing to switch it up for years, when clearly it didnt work because he went from 10 million one album to 1 million to gold,
this is where your logic falls off
if his formula didn't work BECAUSE he went from 10 Million to 1 Mill
Then the same would go for an artist who went from 5 Million to 1 Million

and even IF others had touched on it prior to Full Moon no one took it to that level vocally like Brandy did
It was risky for HER, from traditional R&B to something edgier, sexier and non conformist
Usher has been releasing the same content every album  :uhh:
Usher has not been releasing the same content
because if that was the case no one would be fuming over him doing a lil EDM music, and asking him to go back to R&B

Beyonce has the uh oh and single ladies dance
Michael had the moonwalk
Janet had RN
.........

you telling me after 20 years in the game Usher only managed to come up with a footslide and 360 spin?
dances people been doing since the damn 90's?

I mean at least Ciara had the fucking Matrix :plzstop:
basically you think the dance is corny or something so you're downplaying the fact that it's a signature move of his that ppl can identify on the spot
Ciara didn't invent the Matrix
Michael CLEARLY didn't invent the Moonwalk
Beyonce doing a butt bounce
the Single Ladies was originally from Bob Fosse's wife
on YouTube, and gay men doing the "j-setting" thing
Rhythm Nation isn't a dance move it's a video/song
so either he has one or no one does

and it def broke because he went from 10 mill to 1 to barely gold
By this logic Brandy went from 5 Mill on NSN to 1 Mill on FM to barely Gold on Afro
does that mean her music is bad too?
What does Brandy have to do with this hun
:udontlookok:
apparently a lot
Jayden brought up how she "switched it up" and Usher didn't
:ATLcameo:

but now he's using numbers to say what music was good so

and Full Moon was not a risk musically
she got older, got pregnant and started singing adult themes
her and Rodney had had already created a sound on NSN and they just continued to move forward on FM, it's the best album ever but it's not risky. Its R&B
n

FM ain't all that similar at all. It was a huge risk and not nearly as commercial

Facts dont lie, Bsource homegirls do.

Not to mention BOTH Michael Jackson AND JAMES BROWN both praised Usher and gave him REAL CO signs, not from just homegirls. :kii:



BET recognised Usher's influence on many contemporary artists such as Chris Brown,[214] Trey Songz,[215] Jason Derulo,[216] Miguel,[217] Drake,[218] Justin Bieber,[219] Omarion,[220] Ray J,[221] August Alsina[222] and Eric Bellinger.[223] Ne-Yo further cited Usher as an influence upon the honor saying "I feel that without Usher, there would be no me, there would be no Chris Brown, there would be no Trey Songz. He paved the way for us".[224] Other R&B, hip hop and pop artists who have cited Usher as an influence are Bruno Mars,[225] Zayn Malik,[226] Jeremih,[227] Sam Hunt,[228] Leon Bridges,[229] Sammie,[230] B.Smyth,[231] and Jacob Latimore.[232] Actor Tahj Mowry cites 8701 as an influence in his role of pursuing music and a singing career.[233]

So because this is a female R&B artist forum, that means we have NO knowledge about music or no knowledge about what an icon is in the male world. Bullshit.
Yup, because the reasons why he isn't an icon makes no sense and in the MALE ENTERTAINMENT WORLD he is respected, impactful, and iconic. Which is why I said y'all don't know shit from the jump.

and Full Moon was not a risk musically
she got older, got pregnant and started singing adult themes
her and Rodney had had already created a sound on NSN and they just continued to move forward on FM, it's the best album ever but it's not risky. Its R&B
WHAT THE FUCK? :uhh:  Full Moon was a total risk. Full Moon was progressive R&B at its finest unlike anything Flusher has EVER DONE. Now SIT the fuck DOWN. Brandy is more of an icon than Flusher will EVER BE. Know that Franklin looking faggot.

Now Jay... :calmdownsis:
No. He tried it with the Brandy shade.
Im not gonna go to that level
there was no Brandy shade though
FM wasn't a risk and Brandy is not more of an Icon than Usher

So because this is a female R&B artist forum, that means we have NO knowledge about music or no knowledge about what an icon is in the male world. Bullshit.
Yup, because the reasons why he isn't an icon makes no sense and in the MALE ENTERTAINMENT WORLD he is respected, impactful, and iconic. Which is why I said y'all don't know shit from the jump.

All of this should apply to you too.

and Full Moon was not a risk musically
she got older, got pregnant and started singing adult themes
her and Rodney had had already created a sound on NSN and they just continued to move forward on FM, it's the best album ever but it's not risky. Its R&B
WHAT THE FUCK? :uhh:  Full Moon was a total risk. Full Moon was progressive R&B at its finest unlike anything Flusher has EVER DONE. Now SIT the fuck DOWN. Brandy is more of an icon than Flusher will EVER BE. Know that Franklin looking faggot.

Now Jay... :calmdownsis:
No. He tried it with the Brandy shade.
Im not gonna go to that level
there was no Brandy shade though
FM wasn't a risk and Brandy is not more of an Icon than Usher
Full Moon was more of a risk than anything Flusher has ever done and Brandy is and has been an icon more than Flush. Full Moon and Afrodisiac alone solidified Brandy's iconic status. Simple as that. Brandy >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Flush in every way possible.

Confessions Era

But what from the Confession era. What was the iconic moment?

Performance or Video that he will be remembered for?

Ask a random person on the street what Usher is known for and they couldn't tell you.

I sure as hell cant.
