Why are we even comparing Usher to Buble? They're not even each other's competition

I don't understand it either, but that Signs person is clearly deluded and trolling

Buble will be revered in his niche, but I can't see it going beyond that tbh. Only time will tell though I guess.

Buble has been slaying since 2005. So obviously he's already stood the test of time, and he's made his mark in the music industry.

Sure, he was the biggest male star in 2004 in europe, but only for the confession era.

Well, out of his main hits since then, Love in This Club got to #3 in the European Hot 100 and OMG got to #6 in the European Hot 100. So he's still having success, but obviously not as much as during Confessions.

Because their main audience are adults (people who still buy music) and their music is "crossover" with jazz and soul elements. Pretty obvious.

Don't include the 20-30 years old as adults since they are still part of the mainstream demographic.

Last year (New York and Chigaco concerts) the tickets for Adele went up to 5.000$ at Ebay

She should try stadiums.

Have you heard OMG? Scream? DJ? More?

Michael sold more albums (both released seven albums) and his tours grossed far more. His music isn’t radio-friendly, so he obviously lacks hit singles. He beats him in everything else.

Of course an AC artist is going to sell more albums worldwide than an R&B/pop singer!!

I think the success of Yeah! in Europe was because crunk uses eurodance influences tbh.

Gaga earned $90 million, and Buble earned $70 million.. no big difference, but only the fact that Buble is not as hyped and as in your face as Gaga is.

Where is Adele on the list? (Genuinely don't know).

Usher's singles are straight-up dance-pop now.

What?

I said main audience. I wasn't going to draw an infographic in photoshop to explain that.

YESSSS! I'm fully aware of that, as is pretty much everybody else in the world. No need to rub it in. It makes me so upset that he does songs like More.

But we're talking about their entire career, that's which I included R&B, since that's what most of his songs used to be.

Becuase you said Usher's music has soul elements. Most of his recent hits have had no soul elements at all in them. Although some of his earlier work did.

BEING ICONIC is NOT just about performances. Buble is iconic as a whole artist. His voice, his talent, his songs


That's the problem with Beyonce, Gaga stans. Every performance is "iconic".

The *****ing Irony

Wait i'm deluded and trolling? First of all your the deluded one saying Buble is more iconic than Usher when he doesn't even have a WW smash, Iconic performance etc. He is NOT iconic. No way near Britney, Beyonce etc in terms of being ICONIC. YOU are deluded.
And how am i trolling when the only posts that i'm replying to is yours and defending myself. Actually you are the one who started this whole comparison since I used usher as an example of impact then you went on to complain as to how he has no big sales now etc.

It's not ALWAYS about having a worldwide smash hit. If that's the case, Macarena is more iconic that ALL of Usher's songs combined. You're crazy

No. Adele and Buble are two huge artists but how many other successful artists can you name from their genres?

If you add up all the pop girls that genre is much more profitable.

But outside of the main girls, who else is profitable in the pop industry?

But Pop Business seems to me more like a rat race.

Look Alanis, Calumm, Norah Adele, Buble etc. they are more indpendent. They are sure more satisfied. They can choose the collabaration of other artist they want. They can tour in front of 5.000 people. I don't want to see Beyonce in a ****ing stadium I want to see her in Shepards Bush.
If adele wants to collab. e.g. with Joe Bonamassa, there is no problem.

This thread Way off topic

[Cap10Planet]

It's going off topic because Duca insists on bringing his vendetta against Usher in this thread and discrediting other artists. Stop it.

I was referring to Buble and Adele.

It is the most boring, not sure about its profit, but probably yes, because grandparents usually buy albums.
