Quote from: Scott LeBeau on October 11, 2016, 07:01:03 AMsome 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
Quote from: ANIMMAI on October 10, 2016, 04:47:18 PMI 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.
