L.A. Reid talked about this in his book. Babyface never intended "Can We Talk" to be for Usher, as he didn't find Usher to be a great singer. In the book, L.A says he kept bringing Usher to the studio while Babyface was working, telling Usher the songs were for him. Face wasn't interested in working with Usher. When it was time to cut "Can We Talk", LA brought Usher to the studio only to find Tevin recording the song. LA said Usher stayed to watch the session, but that his feelings were hurt.

When I think of Usher... I think OMG I love his song
When I think of Tevin... I think OMG I love his VOICE and this song

Some people are just known for their vocals

I feel the same about Bey...
She isn't known for her vocals either. She's known for that STAGE slay and then everything else follows
