      BET I hope y'all are honoring Usher this year at the BET Awards! It's his time! He's been in the game too long! Only one I can think of that came out around his time and is still relevant today.

      They will, in the long run, they will respect him at the end of the day. His true fans and the general public who cared about Usher always held him in high regards. Confessions is an impossible album for anyone including Usher to top. When Usher plans to make music for Urban AC crowd, hot AC, AC crowd and not make music for Urban and pop radio or maybe stop releasing CDs then the other people who doubted him will miss him and appreciate him in the long run.

    Living Legend. 1.1 Million sold the FIRST WEEK, for an R&B Album at that! Plus countless awards, accolades, and classic hits. This man is my inspiration and I hope to make a name for myself within R&B just like he has. I hope he gets his legend/icon awards soon too.

    • @MR-hb5ws
      @MR-hb5ws 4 роки тому +1

      He got legend icon awards from BET honors, the golden note icon award back in 2013, won lifetime achievement awards for his philanthropy, he won so many awards, several hall of fame inductions, broke historic world records in 2004, got end of decade awards and so many record certifications. Hopefully he will get some more of those lifetime achievement awards that they should have given to him sooner. I wish R&B were still popular and promoted properly, if it were he would have way more of those all time icon awards and everything else too. He is always the G.O.A.T.
