Nah, this man has done THE WORK. I can tell by his responses, his willingness to listen and I can SEE it. He looks joyful and at peace. I love to see it❤
Usher has been with us dropping heat in the 90s, 2000s, 2010s and now in the 2020s still sounding fresh as ever! The man is a living Legend, in his own lane and such a important figure in R&B and in music. He deserves all his flowers 🔥
I really love this chapter in Angie Martinez's career. I like that she is bringing the faces that we know and love here to a safe space to see them in a new light and on a completely different level. But it doesn't feel invasive or like we are intruding on their privacy like a lot of celebrity/public figure interviews can be.
I couldn't agree more! She's doing an excellent job with these interviews, and to me it seems she's taken a page out of the Oprah Winfrey book with her interviewing style. A lot of evolving and growth on her part, excellent👏👏👏
I've always loved Usher as an artist, but this interview made me love him as a person even more. I love that he's prioritizing his mental health and healing journey. You can see the difference it has made in him. We need to embrace this more in the community.
As a licensed therapist and spiritual healer, I saw this evolution in him during his tiny desk. This interview shows his self awakening and self concept journey is abundant. Kudos.
So I met Usher in 1998/1999 A&T university homecoming back stage and he asked me what’s my name I said Asjadoll he said I’ll never forget it. He was humble a very down to earth guy. His mom said don’t get to close to the fans and he still offered me a hug. He’s always going to be one of my favorites. He is one of the greats . I love him much more after this interview.
It's two completely different lane. Babyface is more known as a songwritter and producer who wrote some of the greatest RnB songs of the past 30 years while Usher is a full on entertainer I.e singer, dancer, performer
I’m impressed how Angie’s interview style has changed over the years. Now it seems she has mastered the ability to meet her guests on any level without leveraging her personality. Usher seems to be in the nirvana of his awakening stage and I think that’s great for him. He still hasn’t lost his PR style of interviews but I can appreciate him being more open about his life. It’s with no doubt that Usher has paved the way for the new kids on the block but I understand his humility in being regarded as a legend. And to be honest, I’m a huge fan of a few of Usher’s albums but I think he’s still in his “music icon” stage. We’re gonna need a couple R&B albums with songs more lyrical depth to seal the legend title. His most notable songs were his R&B songs recorded in his teens & 20s. Afterwards, he dipped into the pop market and gave us the mainstream sound. After dropping a gem like Confession, it’s a requirement that he circles that back around with an R&B classic to seal the deal. We can talk about legend status afterwards.. I say this because Usher is immensely talented and there’s still a lot more he could contribute to R&B considering he has no intentions on stopping.
Went to his residency in July! Omggg it was the BEST show i’ve ever been too!! This man sang live and barely took any breaks! He deserves everything wonderful in his career! Seems like an amazing person too!
I'm planning to go this Summer. There are shows that are 21+ only. I'm trying to figure out the difference in shows although I'm leaning towards this one out of curiosity. Any suggestions?
@@shunhenry3248 ohh okay well i didnt know they had 21+ shows different but im sure its because he has like a stripper section of his performance! But there was a child there at the same time lol so im not sure about that part
uhser pleaseee dont let them steal my money, pleasee, i have secrificed all my life to earn that money, usher pleaseeee, dont let them slap me or steal my money, they will make me whore, usher, i am telling u smt llisten to me
My Mom loves him!! I wasn't a big fan but while in Vegas for birthday celebration; I went to his residency because my Mom said we had to go! BABY, now I'm right along with her.... gracious and great show Usher, for the culture baby. Everyone please go if you are able to attend. Blessings
I've been loving this man since "Can you get wit it." I'm so happy to see and hear his growth, to witness him receive his flowers over and over, and to see him enjoy his greatness. I use to tell anybody that would listen about him back then and to now have EVERYONE love him the way I did/do...FULL CIRCLE. One of my 1st male crushes...so happy that we grew together. Signed, a forever fan.
First and foremost I want to say that Usher, undisputedly, is an icon and deserves all his flowers. The same for Angie. Their commitment to, and more importantly their ability, to staying relevant and maintaining such integrity for their respective art is admirable and remarkable after these last few decades. I'm so happy that Usher was given the opportunity to showcase his gift and talent for fans old and new in such a legendary place that only Las Vegas can provide!
Usher is a breath of fresh air to watch. Flowers are so important to give while vital talents are here. He is definitely definitely a LEGEND! Shower him with ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
This was soo good! I just met Usher at his Vegas show in Sept and yes, he’s just as swoon worthy in person!! ❤ Usher was dropping gems 💎 this entire interview. This man deserves all his flowers and he betta own that LEGEND status 👑 after following Usher for years, I’m so unbelievably happy to hear he’s in a good place and can’t wait to see what’s next.
i cant belive u really enjoy preparing all those shows, i mean i remeber myself, i was disgusting! my body, my spirit. do u really enjoy that? tell me the truth
Angie is the GOAT. Idk how you can be so present in an interview but at the same time have the person you're interviewing shine through like this. That's decades of repetition and commitment to the craft!!
Usher has grown immensely. The humility is very much apparent. Happiness can be contagious if you are truly ready to receive it. Usher wears happiness well.
I love this podcast because Angie ask great questions and it just feels relaxed more so than her radio show. Thank you Usher for doing this the podcast, and thank you Angie for this podcast.
What a real conversation! Thank you Usher for being so vulnerable and humble yet confident. I really appreciate that you both shared about your therapy experiences normalizing the fact that it is okay to seek help. There's still alot of stigma especially in communities of color regarding engaging in therapy. Thank you for showing there's strength in self improvement. Awesome interview Angie but I'm not surprised, that's how you do it!! 👏🏼
That was so good!!! Maturity is everything.. self reflection, taking accountability, self care, growing and healing is pretty amazing.. you can feel that he is in such a wonderful place in his life. I can’t wait for new music but if he never put out another record Usher made classics. I definitely put him up besides his idols, Stevie, Marvin Gaye, Miles Davis.. Michael Jackson.. he’s done that’s! He’s solidified that. A legend. This conversation was amazing.
I truly admire how Usher continues to reinvent himself. He is very creative. I saw early on that his talent would last for years if he was given the right support and marketed well, and he was. Good music, talent, dancing, acting, he's a true entertainer. I enjoy his music 🎶. He's building a legacy for himself.
He has such a genuine and heartwarming smile. Melts me every time man! I couldn't be more proud of how Usher has evolved and stayed true to himself. I love where he is right now. It can only get better from here and I'm here for it 💝
usher, i am not a whore! please dont give me anybody, always stay with me, and tell me stories, ` how incredible Atlanta is and u cant even express to me` :D, sometimes, u are soo funny, i love u when u are funny, but when u do dirt to me, i hate u! one side of me will always hate u as u left me, dad, mom and sis here! i could have given a better after life to my father, sis and mom and me, we could have been healthier and happier, U AND I, WE COULD HAVE SAVED THE WORLD! BUT INSTEAD U LEFT US TO THE RAPISTS ANIMALS, WHY DID U LET THEM BEAT MOM AND DAD SO BADLY? WHY? WHY DIDNT U PROTECT THEM?
I loved usher the moment I was introduced to him and he’s always been a legend in the music industry for me. I’m planning on making my way to Vegas for my 1st time just to see him and I know it will be one of the highlights of my life to see someone that I’ve watched grow and helped me thru his music. 🥰
Loving how she kept her energy the same. I can see her staying true to herself, the growth…. and ushers vibe was so calm which is cool too. Great interview Ang! ❤
I saw Usher’s beautiful life partner in October on his birthday in Vegas at his show. What I felt immediately was support & unconditional love. The show had already started & when she came out she was dancing & excited…cheering him on. I pray that they truly continue their relationship in peace & continued communication for life. Awesome interview!
i donot wnat to see with other women, this is a direct indulting to my personalty and to my feminine power, but, i know u are a healthy man, u have needings! ( i have tooo!, but i do not flirt with everyone who walks to me! i have never done) and i also know, i cant maryy, becasue i do not belive in marriage, maybe this is better, but at least dont fool me in the public
This was an amazing interview. Usher is so humble and transparent. He dropped so many nuggets during the interview. Thank you Angie for creating a platform for dialog like this.❤❤
today, i spoke with two beautoful childrenfrom sudan they made me so happy, i dont remeber the girls name, but the boy was muhammed, i always see young healthy handsome beautiful girls or boys, but i am pretty sure, there are old women like me in africa🙂 where are they?
My tween/teenaged years was in the ‘90’s. I’m SO glad that I got to witness true R&B. Weather it’s groups, (male or female), and lyrics that’ll make you put your hand up, & sing out loud! Usher was a GREAT part of that! He’s still doing his thing. My (2) favorite albums are My way, & 8701!
This was so good! For those of us who have been fans for years, it’s so wonderful to finally see him happy. What a great interview and therapy session for us all. Thank you, Angie. ❤️❤️❤️
Great Conversation. This podcast is therapy Angie. You are really having Real honest conversations with those who have lived and it's enlightening and enriching especially when you can get a gem out of it...keep it up. 💯. Thank you
I've been loving Usher from the very beginning of his career. He is a true artist one of the best to ever do it . Salute to the legend , icon 👑 Usher Raymond ❤🔥
This interview is GOLD. The topics, questions and depths which are spoken about are very rare to see. Especially given the legacy and profile Usher has, the guy keeps on delivering. Props to Angie for this incredible experience.
I enjoyed every second of his performance , it was an amazing big party ! Him, his dancers, his amazing DJ and TI’s performance ! You can tell that he loves what he does and is outstanding at it ! Usher will always be my favourite ❤
So glad to see Usher sit down with Angie and just have a great conversation!!!! I've been a fan since the beginning of Usher career and love to see his growth over the last 30 years!!!! Usher is getting all the flowers and love that he deserves!!!!
Usher is definitely a living legend. I remember being in awe at the age of 10, 11. And now at 35, I'm still in awe of this man. His work ethic, the vocals, dancing, his catalogue, his impact on the culture. He definitely deserves his flowers! 😌💜💐💐
I was hoping that Usher was next on your podcast.. and boom here it is!! I am genuinely so proud of him and all that he has accomplished. He is an artist that makes you smile and say damn he gets it.. a true performer. He is a legend and deserves it all! Keep representing for our generation Usher! I went to the show on 10/21 It was amazing. I am still on a high!! I am going back next year. 💕💕
Yo when usher spoke on Suffering or not suffering it gave me goosebumps and a light cut on.... I used to meditate in my early 20s and just stopped and I can't deny when I stopped doing its like my personal energy just been off and a lil unligned. Just in my own head too much. But yeah spot on Usher. This was great to listen to 🤔
Very mature, and REAL conversations.. once again, Angie Martinez coming thru with the heat!! 🔥 thank you for feeding culture!!! We need this soul food 🥘. Love you sis! 😘 ❤
Love this interview.. I also like Angie's style of interviewing, very relaxed and mellow, non judgmental and she actually listens and reasons with you.l
i dont belive in real love, and if i dont love i dont want to have confessions, but! if can survive and being the president, i can do with u IN THE WHITE HOUSE JUST ONCE TO SURVIVE, but if i never need this, then i dont want confessions, and i wish u happiness after my 44, but tell them to give memmy money, usher! thers no happiness for me here,neither for me nor for mom and sis and dad
I love Usher I've always loved & respected/appreciated Usher I'm so glad he continue evolving and never gave up but stayed focussed on his craft and to see him have so much joy in his life especially being a celebrity for as long as he has is super dope can't wait to see his show ❤💪🙏✨✨✨✨
I love Usher. Dude come in with that humble name on the humble definitely blasting us with impact and longevity. I feel he has through the years been pulling in that new wave and still being present in the depths of it all and in touch with the classics stirring up the umph needed for the next wave.
Wow I'm not sure what I was expecting but this is definitely grown Usher. I love that he has spent some time on his mental health because the industry is harsh. King Usher you are in fact a legend and we greatly appreciate everything you have given to the culture.
I love a man who’s taking charge of his mental health especially black men. He’s been my favorite male artist and I’ve seen him in concert several times. I just want to hug him and tell him thank you for being transparent. Keep pushing 😊from your Number 1 fan ❤. Y’all think he gonna see this comment lol. In case he does….USHER I LOVE YOU 💕
This interview was so good. I was wondering if Usher is going to return doing movies, but the fact that he is at peace and is happy, makes be proud. He really is a legend because he never lost his way, he always find his way and keep elevating since. I like that he talks about therapy and how it changes him. I like that he said he is not suffering anymore and that he meditates. Not many artists are at his level and I hope he continues to surprise his with his upcoming projects or business. Angie's interviews are always the best.
Usher definitely dropped some major gems and I’m glad I came upon this episode. I always been a huge fan of his and its to see that you never stop learning and growing.
This man is a 🐐! Much respect. Wish I could see his Vegas show. Been a fan since high school when You Make Me Wanna dropped. He deserves his 💐 Angie...please keep giving us these interviews.
Meditation and positive thoughts are REQUIRED to maintain a healthy mental state if being. Usher has done the work and have evolved. I am sure his mother had a hand at pushing to ger his spirit and mind in order. I am so happy for him.
Usher knows how to keep himself relevant in today's world... And after 20 years, he's still better than most of the people in the music industry. A real legend 💯
If yall don't have at least 5 LaFace albums in your Spotify/Apple yall aint wit it!!! I remember when I heard Usher's ''Think of You'' and the video to match?? I was hooked!! Those were my THE BOX days (If yall know about old school THE BOX CHANNEL yall know) and his first album was fire along with the album ''My Way'' right after. Usher was my generation's Chris Brown. His music will forever be essential and legendary to us. His flowers have been grown for the giving! We love you USHER!!!
usher, sometimes u are fooling me so bad! i know what u could have done better, but u didnt prefer to help my family me, u and the whole world, i see that u dont want to talk, but just so u know, I AM NOT GOING TO FORGET WHAT U HAVE DONE OR WHAT U HAVENOT! this is not a threat! dont get me wrong, one side of me loves u more thnan everything as a friend, but me, dad, mom, and sis, we are not idiots!
Right! He seems like he's in a healthy place in his life. Good for him because at one point he seemed to be going through a lot of dark, heavy things in his life.
Loved this interview! Every interview so far on IRL resonated with me!! Each person said something that I'm living by and that I'm learning on my spiritual journey at this moment!! It's almost divine!!💫✨️💗
I love this conversation and being his age I’ve learned to appreciate his music more now than in the 90’s. I connect to it in a different way. So glad I was able to see his 1st residency in Vegas. Really thought he was going to have a 2023 show. A real fan of Usher
That My Way album was successful to me!! I couldn't stop listening to it from beginning to end and BET (when they still had music shows) played his videos all the time!
I appreciate you Usher for sharing your knowledge on the state of suffering. I feel like everyone needed to hear this . I had to rewind a few times to hear a few things again. Much love
GREAT SHOW. THE DEFINITION OF A USHER IS SOMEONE THAT RESTORES ORDER AND LEADS THE CROWD TO THEIR SEATS. ALSO IF YOU EVER GET LOST. THE USHER CAN HELP YOU FIND YOUR WAY BACK SAFELY. GO. USHER. N. THANK YOU GEORGIA. FOR. RESTORING WHAT WAS BROKE. N TO THOSE THAT WERE LOST. GO. BRO. NYC. GOT. YOU. STAY STRONG. 1🎉❤
I see this I click like! 😊 Usher’s a great conversationalist. Angie is made for this so it’s a great team up. They both are iconic. I need awards and the public to give Angie Sway and Big Boy all their flowers. Give them a garden.
Usher Dyer has entered the building!!! I’m one of those fans that adored him since “Just Call Me a Mack” and it’s beautiful to see him HAPPY and WHOLE. This is a great interview!! 🫶🏽
I’ve been an Usher fan since he was 13 years old before he was big in this industry. I’ve seen him twice in concert which I knew he would do great on the show here in Vegas, I’m sad he’s leaving Vegas and I didn’t get to go see the show but I know it was great from my last experiences seeing him. He is so peaceful and just nice . I love his personality 💜
I LOVE HIS CONFIDENCE!!!! 🤩I have seen his residency twice now and honestly, I'm going again!! He's a phenomenal performer and artist. It's just facts and he knows it!! 👑
When I thought nothing could top how amazing the Vegas show was… This interview showcases another level of greatness, humility and respect. I’m truly wowed! #ushered ❤️
Usher’s smile just makes me smile. Like why am I smiling at the screen 😂
No seriously lol
Like forreal❤
Definitely went to his residency and EVERYONE was smiling when he would smile!
😂😂😂😂
“Seduccctttioonnnnn!!”😂😂
Nah, this man has done THE WORK. I can tell by his responses, his willingness to listen and I can SEE it. He looks joyful and at peace. I love to see it❤
That part!!!
Hi 😎there nah.yea i agreed 💯
Yes, he certainly has.
He’s so happy ! I love it booking my trip to Vegas to see him
@@jenniferbrown8568 😊😊
Usher has been with us dropping heat
in the 90s, 2000s, 2010s and now in
the 2020s still sounding fresh as ever!
The man is a living Legend, in his own
lane and such a important figure in
R&B and in music. He deserves all his
flowers 🔥
And looking so young
I agree with you a 100%
Absolutely
And new generation seems doesn't care
Well lovely… Life is grand and God has much more in store for you Dugar
I hope usher knows how appreciated and loved he is especially by us 90s babies that have followed him from the beginning. Unbelievable talent
Yesss HE KNOWS awww
❤
Yes I said dam I was around when he first came out!!!! And I’m still in my 40’s
I really love this chapter in Angie Martinez's career. I like that she is bringing the faces that we know and love here to a safe space to see them in a new light and on a completely different level. But it doesn't feel invasive or like we are intruding on their privacy like a lot of celebrity/public figure interviews can be.
I couldn't agree more! She's doing an excellent job with these interviews, and to me it seems she's taken a page out of the Oprah Winfrey book with her interviewing style. A lot of evolving and growth on her part, excellent👏👏👏
I so agree!
Angie can’t miss, these interviews have been incredible!
Yea.jocelyn 287. Love her hair stile butiful 😀😀❤️
shes so good at bringing peoples character out
I've always loved Usher as an artist, but this interview made me love him as a person even more. I love that he's prioritizing his mental health and healing journey. You can see the difference it has made in him. We need to embrace this more in the community.
🔑🔥🔥
Can you heal herpes?
@@alyssag.5758 😭🤣🤣
usher, will i get sick again? because of the things that i got from dad?
usher, will i have to go to the government insanity doctors till i am 43? please tell me the truth
As a licensed therapist and spiritual healer, I saw this evolution in him during his tiny desk. This interview shows his self awakening and self concept journey is abundant. Kudos.

usher is this generations babyface! he’s been in the game nearly 30 years and still looks the same as when he started!
babyface is a songwriter and producer more than he was a singer
Usher Raymond is 44 will be 45 next years old next year and still fine
It's two completely different lane. Babyface is more known as a songwritter and producer who wrote some of the greatest RnB songs of the past 30 years while Usher is a full on entertainer I.e singer, dancer, performer
Nah, that’s Ne-Yo. That man done wrote every song in the 2,000😅
Just fine
I’m impressed how Angie’s interview style has changed over the years. Now it seems she has mastered the ability to meet her guests on any level without leveraging her personality.

Agree 💯%! Well said
Great analysis
Perfectly said. Angie has come a long way and Usher’s media training is rock solid.
well said !!! huge fan
Well said!! I think If he made an album that consists of songs like or better than Bad Habits and She Ain’t Tell Ya….. He would be on to something.
Who would’ve thought this calming interview would motivate me to achieve greater. Thank you Usher! Take a moment to be silent
Absolutely
This brotha wise AF!! I knew he was smart but damn bro a whole wisdom tree. Gotta rewatch this joint to help me through life with different jewels.
This man owns exactly who he is and what he’s been through. I can just tell he’s done the work and that he’s happy now. No more suffering ❤

Good to see Usher and Angie interviewing him after all these years started back when Hot 97 now Angie doing her thing

I really do love Usher. I love how he acknowledged that he took the standards that ppl like MJ set and is keeping that going through his performances.
Angie is the GOAT. Idk how you can be so present in an interview but at the same time have the person you're interviewing shine through like this. That's decades of repetition and commitment to the craft!!
Shes best interviewer ever
Mark of artist
Usher has grown immensely. The humility is very much apparent. Happiness can be contagious if you are truly ready to receive it. Usher wears happiness well.
This is what growth looks and sounds like. You can feel the authenticity and truth. 👏🏾 ✨💚
I love this podcast because Angie ask great questions and it just feels relaxed more so than her radio show. Thank you Usher for doing this the podcast, and thank you Angie for this podcast.
are u working on ur `international` cherographies????
Angie fully present- interview opens like profound flower
What a real conversation! Thank you Usher for being so vulnerable and humble yet confident. I really appreciate that you both shared about your therapy experiences normalizing the fact that it is okay to seek help. There's still alot of stigma especially in communities of color regarding engaging in therapy. Thank you for showing there's strength in self improvement. Awesome interview Angie but I'm not surprised, that's how you do it!! 👏🏼
👏 👍
Its speaking to me too
That was so good!!! Maturity is everything.. self reflection, taking accountability, self care, growing and healing is pretty amazing.. you can feel that he is in such a wonderful place in his life. I can’t wait for new music but if he never put out another record Usher made classics. I definitely put him up besides his idols, Stevie, Marvin Gaye, Miles Davis.. Michael Jackson.. he’s done that’s! He’s solidified that. A legend. This conversation was amazing.
Usher really a icon but he still so humble and down to heart!
25 year Anniversary of “My Way” damn time flies 😅
I truly admire how Usher continues to reinvent himself. He is very creative. I saw early on that his talent would last for years if he was given the right support and marketed well, and he was. Good music, talent, dancing, acting, he's a true entertainer. I enjoy his music 🎶. He's building a legacy for himself.
Your either suffering or in a non suffering state of mind..
Usher's an ocean of calm 🌊
Accepting all of ourself - being ok in our own skin- embracing ourselves there
Wow, he is so inspirational. I can relate to him in so many ways. I love how Usher is very happy and at peace. God bless him!
Usher is phenomenal absolutely legendary! I've admired Usher since I was in grade school. As a mother & wife now Usher is still 🔥 Blessings to him.
He has such a genuine and heartwarming smile. Melts me every time man!
I couldn't be more proud of how Usher has evolved and stayed true to himself. I love where he is right now. It can only get better from here and I'm here for it 💝

This was an amazing interview. Usher is so humble and transparent. He dropped so many nuggets during the interview. Thank you Angie for creating a platform for dialog like this.❤❤
today, i spoke with two beautoful childrenfrom sudan they made me so happy, i dont remeber the girls name, but the boy was muhammed, i always see young healthy handsome beautiful girls or boys, but i am pretty sure, there are old women like me in africa🙂 where are they?
My tween/teenaged years was in the ‘90’s. I’m SO glad that I got to witness true R&B. Weather it’s groups, (male or female), and lyrics that’ll make you put your hand up, & sing out loud! Usher was a GREAT part of that! He’s still doing his thing. My (2) favorite albums are My way, & 8701!
Facts. We grew up in a special time. 😢 it can never be duplicated
This was so good! For those of us who have been fans for years, it’s so wonderful to finally see him happy. What a great interview and therapy session for us all. Thank you, Angie. ❤️❤️❤️
Great Conversation. This podcast is therapy Angie. You are really having Real honest conversations with those who have lived and it's enlightening and enriching especially when you can get a gem out of it...keep it up. 💯. Thank you
I've been loving Usher from the very beginning of his career. He is a true artist one of the best to ever do it . Salute to the legend , icon 👑 Usher Raymond ❤🔥
This interview is GOLD. The topics, questions and depths which are spoken about are very rare to see. Especially given the legacy and profile Usher has, the guy keeps on delivering. Props to Angie for this incredible experience.
USHER. do u think u are in love with me? tell me the truth
Angie this was definitely a wonderful interview. Thank you.🫶
Angie excellent interview with USHER. HE seems so composed
with LIFE.
This was so good. Glad that he's in a happy place and he should definitely do a TED talk soon. :)
I enjoyed every second of his performance , it was an amazing big party ! Him, his dancers, his amazing DJ and TI’s performance ! You can tell that he loves what he does and is outstanding at it ! Usher will always be my favourite ❤
TI was there?? Wow. I wish he'd televise it for those of us in the UK! 😩😊
So glad to see Usher sit down with Angie and just have a great conversation!!!! I've been a fan since the beginning of Usher career and love to see his growth over the last 30 years!!!! Usher is getting all the flowers and love that he deserves!!!!
Usher is definitely a living legend. I remember being in awe at the age of 10, 11. And now at 35, I'm still in awe of this man. His work ethic, the vocals, dancing, his catalogue, his impact on the culture. He definitely deserves his flowers! 😌💜💐💐
I swear this man is something else .. well spoken, graceful and intelligent! He has always has been . So proud to be a fan 🙏🏽
I was hoping that Usher was next on your podcast.. and boom here it is!! I am genuinely so proud of him and all that he has accomplished. He is an artist that makes you smile and say damn he gets it.. a true performer. He is a legend and deserves it all! Keep representing for our generation Usher! I went to the show on 10/21 It was amazing. I am still on a high!! I am going back next year. 💕💕
Usher need to drop a positive affirmation CD, his voice is so motivational
Thank you for blessing us with this interview Angie
Yo when usher spoke on Suffering or not suffering it gave me goosebumps and a light cut on.... I used to meditate in my early 20s and just stopped and I can't deny when I stopped doing its like my personal energy just been off and a lil unligned. Just in my own head too much. But yeah spot on Usher. This was great to listen to 🤔
Very mature, and REAL conversations.. once again, Angie Martinez coming thru with the heat!! 🔥 thank you for feeding culture!!! We need this soul food 🥘. Love you sis! 😘 ❤
Love this interview.. I also like Angie's style of interviewing, very relaxed and mellow, non judgmental and she actually listens and reasons with you.l
Actually let's the guest speak🙌🏾
🎵🎶DADDY'S HOOMMMMEE🎶🎵 I love him. I love that we are finally giving this man his flowers👏🏽👏🏽
I smiled this whole interview. Usher is my favorite Libra besides Lil Wayne. Usher deserves all the love and light to come into his life.
Just an amazing artist and very humble!! And has not aged a bit!! Give him all the flowers now! And that song GLU oh my my my my my!!!!!!!!!
i dont belive in real love, and if i dont love i dont want to have confessions, but! if can survive and being the president, i can do with u IN THE WHITE HOUSE JUST ONCE TO SURVIVE, but if i never need this, then i dont want confessions, and i wish u happiness after my 44, but tell them to give memmy money, usher! thers no happiness for me here,neither for me nor for mom and sis and dad
I love Usher I've always loved & respected/appreciated Usher I'm so glad he continue evolving and never gave up but stayed focussed on his craft and to see him have so much joy in his life especially being a celebrity for as long as he has is super dope can't wait to see his show ❤💪🙏✨✨✨✨
I just love Usher! Crushed on him as a kid and still one of my faves. I’d love to see him perform someday I hope he will be in Vegas again’
The 3rd leg of his Vegas show starts in March 2023. Get your tix quick because the shows are selling out!
I love Usher. Dude come in with that humble name on the humble definitely blasting us with impact and longevity. I feel he has through the years been pulling in that new wave and still being present in the depths of it all and in touch with the classics stirring up the umph needed for the next wave.
This conversation was EVERYTHING!!!!!!!!
Wow I'm not sure what I was expecting but this is definitely grown Usher. I love that he has spent some time on his mental health because the industry is harsh. King Usher you are in fact a legend and we greatly appreciate everything you have given to the culture.
Okay Angie I see you she’s bringing on a lot of my favorite artist and I always enjoy the questions and the vibes in her interviews.
I love a man who’s taking charge of his mental health especially black men. He’s been my favorite male artist and I’ve seen him in concert several times. I just want to hug him and tell him thank you for being transparent. Keep pushing 😊from your Number 1 fan ❤. Y’all think he gonna see this comment lol. In case he does….USHER I LOVE YOU 💕
This interview was so good. I was wondering if Usher is going to return doing movies, but the fact that he is at peace and is happy, makes be proud. He really is a legend because he never lost his way, he always find his way and keep elevating since. I like that he talks about therapy and how it changes him. I like that he said he is not suffering anymore and that he meditates. Not many artists are at his level and I hope he continues to surprise his with his upcoming projects or business. Angie's interviews are always the best.
Usher definitely dropped some major gems and I’m glad I came upon this episode. I always been a huge fan of his and its to see that you never stop learning and growing.
This man is a 🐐! Much respect. Wish I could see his Vegas show. Been a fan since high school when You Make Me Wanna dropped. He deserves his 💐
Angie...please keep giving us these interviews.
Meditation and positive thoughts are REQUIRED to maintain a healthy mental state if being.
Usher has done the work and have evolved. I am sure his mother had a hand at pushing to ger his spirit and mind in order. I am so happy for him.
Usher knows how to keep himself relevant in today's world... And after 20 years, he's still better than most of the people in the music industry. A real legend 💯
Been a fan since I was 14 and still live his work
Hi 😊 there mraqarius 127 yes he is 😎😊👍👍
I i bend his fan since ever since when he played in mowesha and movie 🍿 lighted up
u think i need to be cured, but it is almost impossible?
@@kylieeinstein do I know u😂
LOL the 'Daddy's Home' reference 🤣💛 This interview made me so HAPPY!
I love his speaking voice. It's soothing somehow 😍
If yall don't have at least 5 LaFace albums in your Spotify/Apple yall aint wit it!!! I remember when I heard Usher's ''Think of You'' and the video to match?? I was hooked!! Those were my THE BOX days (If yall know about old school THE BOX CHANNEL yall know) and his first album was fire along with the album ''My Way'' right after. Usher was my generation's Chris Brown. His music will forever be essential and legendary to us. His flowers have been grown for the giving! We love you USHER!!!
Angie always have the Bomb Azz interviews!!!!!
seriously!
usher, sometimes u are fooling me so bad! i know what u could have done better, but u didnt prefer to help my family me, u and the whole world, i see that u dont want to talk, but just so u know, I AM NOT GOING TO FORGET WHAT U HAVE DONE OR WHAT U HAVENOT! this is not a threat! dont get me wrong, one side of me loves u more thnan everything as a friend, but me, dad, mom, and sis, we are not idiots!
“You go through something to get to something “. I love that
Ohh I’m loving this grown Usher!
So much insight and learning.
Good interview.
Right! He seems like he's in a healthy place in his life. Good for him because at one point he seemed to be going through a lot of dark, heavy things in his life.
Usher is a legend! I look forward for his next album! God bless!
Woah I never seen a usher interview other than like 106 and park! Wow this is amazing
USHER NOT AGING 🔥🔥🔥🔥
At all like he is just handsome period!!!!❤
Loved this interview! Every interview so far on IRL resonated with me!! Each person said something that I'm living by and that I'm learning on my spiritual journey at this moment!! It's almost divine!!💫✨️💗
Usher has such a great way with words,super eloquent and on point.
Give this man all of his flowers 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Angie listens. Her interview style is so easygoing and respectful.
He is a true legend 🔥👏🏾
I love this conversation and being his age I’ve learned to appreciate his music more now than in the 90’s. I connect to it in a different way. So glad I was able to see his 1st residency in Vegas. Really thought he was going to have a 2023 show. A real fan of Usher
That My Way album was successful to me!! I couldn't stop listening to it from beginning to end and BET (when they still had music shows) played his videos all the time!
My way the album and the song are both definitely classics
@@brandonbates9587 for sure
I appreciate you Usher for sharing your knowledge on the state of suffering. I feel like everyone needed to hear this . I had to rewind a few times to hear a few things again. Much love
His voice is so soothing. Ughhhh I can’t take it😮
GREAT SHOW. THE DEFINITION OF A USHER IS SOMEONE THAT RESTORES ORDER AND LEADS THE CROWD TO THEIR SEATS. ALSO IF YOU EVER GET LOST. THE USHER CAN HELP YOU FIND YOUR WAY BACK SAFELY. GO. USHER. N. THANK YOU GEORGIA. FOR. RESTORING WHAT WAS BROKE. N TO THOSE THAT WERE LOST. GO. BRO. NYC. GOT. YOU. STAY STRONG. 1🎉❤
I see this I click like! 😊 Usher’s a great conversationalist. Angie is made for this so it’s a great team up. They both are iconic. I need awards and the public to give Angie Sway and Big Boy all their flowers. Give them a garden.
Usher Dyer has entered the building!!! I’m one of those fans that adored him since “Just Call Me a Mack” and it’s beautiful to see him HAPPY and WHOLE. This is a great interview!! 🫶🏽
Very good interview and he is definitely self aware now of relationships and it’s good to hear and see as other people have those same issues!
I’ve been an Usher fan since he was 13 years old before he was big in this industry. I’ve seen him twice in concert which I knew he would do great on the show here in Vegas, I’m sad he’s leaving Vegas and I didn’t get to go see the show but I know it was great from my last experiences seeing him. He is so peaceful and just nice . I love his personality 💜
I LOVE HIS CONFIDENCE!!!! 🤩I have seen his residency twice now and honestly, I'm going again!! He's a phenomenal performer and artist. It's just facts and he knows it!! 👑
Same! I saw it twice last year and I'm planning to go next year. Can't wait!
I love this interview with Usher and I didn’t want this conversation to end. I respect his vulnerability and transparency and growth.
Love this Love Usher so calm and full of wisdom👏🏽👏🏽
When I thought nothing could top how amazing the Vegas show was… This interview showcases another level of greatness, humility and respect. I’m truly wowed! #ushered ❤️
