Though I disagree with this music, I'd fight to the death for your right to listen to it!
I wouldn't dislike him so much if he wasn't played everywhere and hailed as a god by women everywhere. First thing's first, i don't like Usher and I never did.

However, I do believe that everyone has the freedom to listen to whatever they want. I'm sick of reading reviews saying that this is garbage and then telling people what they "should" listen to. It is obvious that those who listen to Usher have a certain taste in music and your petty little review isn't going to give them a revelation. An Usher fan isn't going to say, "Hmm I thought I loved Usher, but according to this unprofessional review, he sucks. Well I guess I suck. I better go listen to the Beetles or Jimi Hendrix and Metallica (thanks Kramer). These guys don't seem to be part of the genre of music I'm in to but as long as some guy says to listen to it, I'm sold".

Face it, every generation has its own popular music that is despised by its prior generation. Of course, I'm not saying that everyone from my generation likes this music (I've already established that I don't). Also, Usher is R&B, NOT RAP! And he has nothing to do with Eminem. Half of you negative reviewers saying he is rap just revealed how clueless you really are!

I find Usher's voice too high, its freakishly high and it digs up horrible memories of boy bands. Personally, I dislike every song on this album, but on the other hand I don't enjoy R&B. Everyone has different musical tastes. Girls love him and they are really the target audience because they think he's the hottest thing since jalapeno peppers (though I do not recommend basing your musical taste on how the artist looks). Usher is definitely for tweens and popular girls. If you want to give 'Confessions' a negative review, give it a negative review based on what you think of the album, don't diss the entire music industry of this decade based on one man.

If you agree that people have the right to choose what music they listen to, then vote yes. If you're one of those pricks who think that your music is the ONLY music, then vote no, it doesn't bother me, it just helps me to keep track.


Good Usher
Before I got into rap music this was my absolute favourite and to this day I still am a big fan of it. My sister gave this to me for my birthday last year and i'm not unhappy that I was exposed to it. My favourite song has to be Superstar but songs like Confessions, Confessions Part 2, Bad Girl, Yeah!, Simple Things etc are great. Well like I said before now i'm mainly a rap fan but I can't bag this guy for singing in his songs.

If you like R & B than this is a good album for your collection.

his best CD so far
Songs such as "U Got It Bad", "My Way", and "U Make Me Wanna" really got me to like his music. Usher has always been my favorite R&B artist because I really believe he produces quality music. I have never owned any of his CDs. So when "Confessions" came out I decided to purchase it. This CD is pretty good. Mostly all the songs have nice beats. When I heard "Burn" on the radio thats when I decided to buy this CD because it sounded really nice. I think the best songs on the album were:
Yeah - clubbanger, real nice beat
Confessions - liked the small interlude that precedes it, nice beat
Burn - real nice slow song
Caught Up - has a nice beat to it
Bad Girl - the beat was off the hook, really nice
Take Your Hand - reminds you a lot of Michael Jackson
Follow Me- this one had a real nice beat

Overall this was a good effort by Usher. Almost all the songs are worth listening to. He has talent but I really don't think he's a great singer. But the way he produces his songs make up for it. Wonder if he'll make another album, but anyways it was a good effort.


I LOVE THIS CD
My favorite track on Usher's Confessions album is "Yeah". Usher has a good voice, I listened to every song on this album, and enjoyed 100% of them. When I bought it I couldn't stop hearin' it. I Just fall in love with this CD. I love it all the time.


Nice One Usher!
I can honestly say that I listened to every song on this album, and enjoyed 98% of them (and this coming from a person who is not an R&B fan). This album is truly the marketer for Usher. A lot of people may "knock" Usher for his lack of originality in dancing, however the brother has to make a living ya'll. I enjoyed the fact that Usher had variation on this album. It wasn't your typical "bump and grind" track burner. He brought in an array of styles and flavor. Hell, it should be labeled as a classic. Excellent! .
