We’ve followed their careers as they have transitioned from America’s teen heartthrobs to sex symbols to grown men – and of course there have been scandals, setbacks and hardships along the way leading up to their success. But in the end the three remain the trinity of male pop stars of our generation – I'm talking about Usher Raymond, Justin Timberlake and Christopher Brown. Each heavily influenced by The King, each are considered the princes of pop, but which prince has that will end up dethroning the rest? So let's settle this once and for all.

I've narrowed it down to 22 of their highest charting or notable singles each (some features or non-singles that charted will be included) which gives us a total of 66 songs. Please listen and rate each track to help us decide which single will sit high above the rest.

"Yeah!" (featuring Ludacris & Lil’ Jon)

I'm Ready!!

Cool, can't wait to do this.

And just a warning: one of these guys is getting absolutely TRASHED by me.

Good thing I've heard just about everything here.

Don't hurt them too much.

This should be very interesting. We're not grading the girls anymore - the first male rate and I'm expecting it to get real catty.

+1

Are half numbers allowed in the rates?

Of course. 0.5 up to 9.5.

edit: 1.5* - 9.5. Sorry for the misunderstanding.

Been waiting for this.

This will be good!!!!!!!!!!

With what song?

Done
