Come on Flashing Lights you should know by now that JT is no where near Usher's level yet. Usher has 8th #1 singles, JT only has 3. Usher is about to put out his 5th studio album, JT only put out his 2nd and his 3rd probably won't be released until 2010 since he's all caught up in acting now.

Downloads Mike, downloads is why. And because he's the man when it comes to downloads, he makes JT look like a *****

Ummm okay.....but for one Beautiful Liar never hit #1 and the downloads for "Love In This Club" are pretty high he's pretty much guaranteed to be #1 until Mariah releases "Touch My Body" to I-Tunes and it might be a week or 2 after that. Not to mention I think LITC might be on top of the charts for 7 weeks. (crosses fingers)

I hope that Usher doesn't dominate the Hot 100 like he did in 2004, that was just sad ...

Well for one mariah4life I thought you liked Usher and agreed with me that Usher would have a big year in 2008 (which looks right btw, crosses fingers) and what about 2001 he dominated that year as well with hits such as "U Remind Me" and "U Got It Bad." He dominates the charts because he keeps on releasing bangers and he's a legend. The king of the pop charts, no longer the king of pop tarts. (This was when they thought he might have been fat with his time off lol)
Oh yeah and do y'all remember this I predicted that this song particular was going to be #1 and if you've noticed before I am good at predicting songs that will be #1. I predicted Stronger was going to be #1, I predicted Kiss Kiss would be #1, Ridin would be #1, What Goes Around Comes Around would be #1 the only one I missed was Because of You which came very close finishing at #2. Also I am glad that Usher came out with a song like this instead of doing what everybody else has been doing as in that electropop ****. I don't need to hear that and what Usher did was bring back what nobody has done since the the 90s which is actually use their own singing voice and bring back that old school sound, he doesn't need to use a voice synthesizer like others have such as Janet Jackson, Britney Spears, Chris Brown or T-Pain. My dawg Usher is a legend, jumped from #51 to #1 in 1 week only my dawg Ush can do that and I've been saying that for years, y'all believe yet?
Oh yeah and don't hate, appreciate lol

However LITC is not his best but it's really good and that was all he needed to make a great comeback. The best comeback since his comeback he's making a real comeback (got to wait on that album) so far unlike some others in the music business who actually think they still have a career in the music business. However I think the 2nd single which I think will be Moving Mountains is definitely his best song lyrically and better than LITC but it's obvious that won't be out till May when LITC and when MM gets released to I-Tunes I expect that to hit the top spot as well (crosses fingers). His album Here I Stand which I actually think is a terrific title because to me it relates to a famous part of a MLK speech should have huge success for one Usher has been here for years and people know his music has been good since he was a choir boy, two LITC is a certified banger and 3 Confessions was amazing. I wouldn't be surprised if he actually once again sold at least 1 million or close to a million in the first week. This was the highly most anticipated comeback of the year.
