Usher

Confessions

Usher is not the spilling out all his confessions!!!!!!!

Review Score:

(2/10)
First, lemme start by saying Usher cannot sing. He's commercial R&B. All the nice songs on Usher's albums (like "Burn" "Confessions, "U Make Me Wanna" etc) were written and produced by Jermaine Dupri who is the genius behind Usher's success as an artist (check the credits). When it comes to dancing around and showing off a six-pack Usher takes the cake but as far as singing he's average. In fact, I know of some people in my neighborhood who can sing better than him but don't have the contacts nor the flare to make it big in the music industry (not yet atleast). I read that this album is autobiographical but people should buy an album based on talent not on popularity or because it tells of a person's life. As far as lyrics this album could do alot better, but in Usher's songs the hooks and beats are catchy but ofcourse that's because of Jermaine Dupri. "Burn" and "Confessions" are played too damn much on the radio.
And Usher tried in this album to do an old-school R&B thing but it doesn't work because he can't sing!! When it comes to contemporary R&B artists trying to do the old-school thing I'd much rather listen to Jaheim. Anyway "My Way" was a better album because Babyface was a producer on it. This album would of been better if Usher kept "Burn" "Confessions" and "Caught Up" on the album but made it more like "My Way" and than towards the end of the album he could of put one or two songs with old-school beats. No matter how bad Usher sings he'll keep selling though cause he has a six-pack and he's popular. But If you all want to listen to an R&B artist who could sing his heart out from his teenage years until now than go buy Tevin Campbell's albums... One
