Yeah this is so true. If I were Justin Bieber I would be so thankful that I got someone like Usher. I would put him on every Album as a feature and much more things.
Just look at Rico Love, he is a great example. This man did it also because of USHER and he is sooooooo thankful and is saying it over and over that's why I really respect him.
But I'm sure they're cool together and we don't see/hear everything about them so let us not make a drama about this

Justin needs to have a seat, and remain thankful that people are still buying his stuff. Usher has supported him no matter what, but even I can tell he seems fed up with the bad boy thing. At least when Usher went through that phase he wasn't trying to make controversy.
And I agree Rico is always thankful to be where he is. He's a great songwriter, and I like how Usher is always willing to introduce new artists to the world.
I don't want to sound like I'm reaching, but in my opinion You Make Me Wanna is his most iconic video. It made a younger generation of singers want to pursue an actual career out of it.
When is he getting inducting into the Walk of Fame?

Agreed! Usher is still a big influence for the younger generation. Let's just wait for The Voice. Many people who talked bad things about him will see what an amazing man he is.

Neyo took a photo with Usher at the pre Grammy party, but I know that Usher doesn't and will never care for him after what he said and did.
Chris is a thief and Usher doesn't owe him squat, nobody told him to beat the breaks off Rihanna
Rico is someone I will always trust atleast
The rest not so much

I just can't believe that he did that. Usher trusted him, and he went behind his back and bashed him on the radio. No wonder he's so guarded about everything now. People accuse him of being a douche, but I think it's an act to drive people away because he's fed up with everyone going behind his back and people using him, to their advantage to get their name out there.
I think Rico and Miguel are trustworthy, just as long as he doesn't let the success go to his head.

Rico Love, Diddy, Pharrell & Ludacris would always help Usher, they're really good friends.

Ehh I wouldn't trust Diddy. Diddy helped him get his name out there but he wasn't the exactly the greatest influence for him. I will say that he seems to be close friends with Pharrell and Luda, maybe Beyonce and Alicia, but it looks like he hasn't spoken to either of them for quite a while.

What the mess? What did Ne-Yo do to Usher?
BTW, is there any word on the Euphoria tour coming? I know it got postponed, but will it ever happen?

Diddy helped him get an album out that's all, but as in influence? No. Diddy drank and did drugs, and who knows what else went on. I remember Usher saying that he would never do drugs in his lifetime because of his father.

Oh, I though we're just talking about his friendship and which people he can trust etc. because they're friends since their childhood or something like that...
If we talk about influence etc. then I agree for sure with you.

Lol they're friends, but honestly I wouldn't be surprised if the only people he trusted would be his sons.
Man I would have loved a Usher and MJ collab, its too bad they never got to it, it would have been awesome.

Ne-Yo went on a radio show back during Usher's RvR era and started talking mad **** about Usher. He was saying that Usher's new music was subpar to Confessions. This was right after Usher asked Ne-Yo to write a few songs with him for Here I Stand, so it made him look really ungrateful and bitchy. It was also a stupid thing to say because singers can't top their best album, and Usher is well knowon to change his music up for every album so that every era of his is different. What made things worse though was that this was also when Ne-Yo released Beautiful Monster and that's why a lot of people got mad, because he had no right to talk about Usher's quality of music when his music was recycled.
As for his tour I'm not sure if he's willing to go on it, considering he may have to go make to court (Tameka  ), and awards push for his movie, but if he does, I'm buying tickets and be better release Euphoria to promote the tour.

I wouldn't trust Diddy and I'm sure Diddy is the last person he would trust afte what he did to him.
Diddy took Usher under his wings and in the middle started Ignoring Usher because he wanted Tevin Campbell
"For his first album, he work with Sean "Puffy" Combs and the album was considered a failure by industry standards. It produced the hit Think Of You. Usher soon worked with Puffy and Dallas Austin on a second album that was completed and never released. Puffy turned his back on Usher to produce the highly regarded but poorly promoted Back to the World album by Tevin Campbell. Tevin Campbell is a person that Usher hates being compared to at all times. Many view the Puffy/Usher relationship a failure since Puffy attempted to turn him into something that he wasn't-a street player (mack). (sound familiar Tevin fans?)
"Puffy tried to help Usher but he also made Usher into someone he wanted him to be, something from the street. Usher's not from the street Usher's mom (source Request mag)
"I wasn' t as hard a cat as the image they were trying to portray me. So, I mean, I lived up to it, but Puff Daddy sort of split, he got occupied with other things, the East Coast/West Coast war was kind of the thing, and I sort of fell back in the cut."-Usher (Request mag.)"

This sadly doesn't surprise me. When Usher hit puberty everyone turned their back on him, when his first album flopped, Diddy just forgot about him, but he tried to make Usher look like some hardcore street thug, and I remember seeing multiple interviews where Usher said that, that wasn't him. When Usher teamed up with Jermaine, and My Way became successful I bet Diddy tried to go back.
I'm sure their friends now, but Diddy has always been money hungry.

 I'm sure Usher respects him because he gave him a chance, but what he did was very shady.
 the interview, lmao I love reading interviews from 21 year old Usher. It's too bad he isn't as open as before.
Do you guys remember the Sisqo feud?

Lmao how did that even start?
Didn't it start with Sisqo going on 106 saying he had the best voice ever? Then Usher went on saying he didn't agree? Then R.Kelly dissed sisqo on a track.
Lmao the funny thing is sisqo tried to start things again saying Usher copied him, Usher's too busy counting his money.
