Usher

by John Torres

Overview

It's hard to listen to the radio these days or watch a music video television program without hearing an Usher song or seeing one of the sexy star's music videos. And that in itself is pretty incredible when you think about how much pop sensation Usher has accomplished in just a few short years.

Born to a humble lifestyle in Chattanooga, Tennessee, in 1978, Usher has taken the world by storm in just one decade. Starting out as a teen sensation, Usher graduated to a few movie and soap opera roles before getting back to the rhythm and blues music he is best known for.

By 2004, Usher's recording "Confessions" was number one for a total of 28 weeks, a new record! He also won several Grammy awards and other music accolades so that music critics and fans alike are ready to crown him the next "King of Pop."
