@@marcuspolk5852 I have checked the credits. Hence, why I said it. Devonte definitely had his hands on the track. But this is when timbaland was coming out. His name wasn't big at time to take full production cred, so his name was just in the credits as T.Mosley not Timbaland. You can start to hear even in Jodeci "freaking you" which has a very similar sound to this where Timbo was starting to find his groove. I used to own these singles and had nothing better to do than read credits. Lol good day.
This album was the 1st CD that I ever purchased! I was 14 years old! Most people do not know that "MY WAY" is not his first album! True Usher fans do....Can you get with it? I can and did...way back when!
yeah I was in the middle of high school when My Way dropped. It was the first time i ever saw or heard Usher, so I assumed it was his first album, since he looked so young lol.

Because those singles weren't commercially successful and on top of that is more than 20 years old. Not one person in the audience would connect to it.
N.A K those songs not being commercially successful has nothing to do with it it's still apart of his catalog. Also Usher's fan base ranges from his age range on down so you got all kinds of ages going to his concerts!
Right DeVante went hard and his beats have a signature sound fasho 💯 I didn’t know he produced this song but now you mention it this beat definitely sounds like it could’ve been a Jodeci song easy 💯🔊🎶🔥🔥
He kinda neglects this album cause it didn't do very well and this song in particular faced alot of backlash people didn't like the fact that he was 15 singing about sex and understandably so
This album although not commercially successful was my favorite in 94/95 I was 23/24, the writing was done by Donell Jones and Faith Evans on several tracks and production by DeVante Swing on a few in my opinion it’s my 2nd favorite Album by Usher after 8701 !
i am serious, lemme drink a lo of water, an =d buy a lot of water, i will need it, and stop peeing me million times a day, usher, it is a huge pyschological torture, please stop it
I like that the fake nose bleed part paid tribute to the movie Cooley High. Also, this song sounds like a slowed down version of Jodeci's "What About Us".

Nah his music is still good and the fact you said this 8 years ago, proves you don’t appreciate good music because all his music from that era was and is golden. Y’all just don’t know how to move on from the past and appreciate the new music and sounds.
i dont love u most of thw time, but i swear on god, i am trying really hard to be able to love u, and working hard for u to be able to love me, i have been trying usher despite of u, i have been fighting against u to love u
Usher 1994 debut album is so slept on it has some smooth bangers on it like this song. I love Usher and Diddy little brother-big brother relationship. I wish I had a time machine to g back the '90s. The food, people, music, movies, tv shows etc were better than vs now. #UsherRaymond #KingofR&B #Livinglegend
I remember when this song first came on the radio, and it was taboo for young people to sing about sex...I remember the radio announcer saying, "What does he think he is singing about? He betta get with them school books!" 😂😂😂 I miss when things like this were a surprise, and the blatant nature was still kind of hidden. Now, it's an overkill...Love this song though from back in the day...
Deep Thoughts & Upgrades, I remember sex and similar topic being taboo on the radio and television. Do you remember "Midnight Love", I was age 9 going on 10 in year 1994 when this song was released. And I use to stay up watching Midnight Love to see similar songs like this on the program. Also "Taxi Cab Confessions" and other taboo shows. Memories! Date Stamp: 04dec21
Lol he was literally in high school. They got to stop acting like they don’t know what’s up with high school age individuals. Sex is one of the main things on the minds from around that point on lol 😂
In terms of longevity Usher has to be close to number 1 because he started so young....can't think of an artist that can compare who's still alive and had such a consistent career 🤔
@@zacmirza6498 Michael Jackson is number 1 & it’s not close, he started younger & never had a dry spell in his career & never had bad song or an irrelevant album Usher still makes good relevant music today but has had multiple dry spells & a bunch of bad / corny songs & forgettable albums through the years
Puff Diddy almost ruined Usher career. His debut was flopped. Had he signed with Bad Boy we won't see Usher success and a lot of his album would get shelved
I love Usher I'm a huge fan, I love his very first album. A lot of teen singers was singing grown folks R&B.....Monica is one of them, aaliyah, brandy, tevin Campbell, and etc.
To this day I still love this song it's my favorite. Best singing I've heard him sing. In my opinion. Love you Usher. God Bless you and heaven shine upon you and your family
Usher, Aaliyah, Monica, & Brandy all sounded so mature for their young ages
Yesss
Yeah of Course , 90s Jam is the Best
Keefe Dammmmmnnnnnn D and his lowrider
Ikr!!!!!!
Don’t forget Tracie Spencer 😍😍
It's 2024....shit still hitting Period😍
This generation will never understand how DOPE the 90s were. ✌🏽😎
NEVER!!!! I wanna go back so bad 😔
Mhm ur like 18
You’re right. This generation does not know how real music sounds like. They where raised up with this worthless autotune music
True 💯💯💯
I swear 💝🥰
Devante has the most recognizable instrumentals, one of ushers best take me back to my teenage days.👍🏻😀😝😘
2480tiff Devante...the only guy I can remember besides KC and JoJo from Jodeci. Mr Dalvin...damn always forget about him

Facts💯💯💯
Damm shame
He could
Get it ..
Fr me
me too! This must have come out around 1993/4 reminds me of london
Devante Swing is one hell of a producer and songwriter.
Say that again!

Came here to reminisce after Usher’s outstanding Halftime performance. This album is a BANGER!
This album was the 1st CD that I ever purchased! I was 14 years old! Most people do not know that "MY WAY" is not his first album! True Usher fans do....Can you get with it? I can and did...way back when!
This was on cassette when I bought it 😂
Ok then u got wit it fo sho
Facts!
yeah I was in the middle of high school when My Way dropped. It was the first time i ever saw or heard Usher, so I assumed it was his first album, since he looked so young lol.
Facts this is the song that made me love Usher!!!!!
Damn this came out 1994?!!! Wow Usher been out for a while!!! He's a living legend!!
That's y Bet dedicated award show to him😊forever a legend🔥
You best believe. He and I are the same age, and I remember this vividly. Brings back memories.
To have Diddy and Devante Swing producing your First Record Proves How Legendary Usher is at this young age.
The Album Was Also An Enormous Flop Because Of P.Shitty
@@darnellnelson4253 true story. LA and Babyface felt the material's subject matter was too mature for a young Usher. Next album they turned Usher over to JD and he became a superstar with the leadoff single ,"You make me wanna"

NOW it is yes, nobody was thinking anything of it back then. You are using hindsight.
Hidden in plain sight, Usher turned out to industry standards
Wow that’s 😢he was so young talking like that
Especially
Knowing what we know now.
USHER WAS THE FIRST TO MILLY ROCK ON ANY BLOCK!! 3:29 & 3:37
Started in the 70's
😂😂😂
lmao

A shame Usher doesn't perform any of his first 1994 album songs, including this classic, at his concerts.
he really wants those who don't know about it believe "My Way" was his 1st album but real fans know!
Because the car used in the video is connected to a murder.
Shade Pit What does this "rumor" of that car being connected to B.I.G murder have to do with Usher performing the songs from his 1st album live?
Because those singles weren't commercially successful and on top of that is more than 20 years old. Not one person in the audience would connect to it.
N.A K those songs not being commercially successful has nothing to do with it it's still apart of his catalog. Also Usher's fan base ranges from his age range on down so you got all kinds of ages going to his concerts!
Devante Swing did his thing with this one!!!! My favorite producer made me love this song even more!!! ❤
Your favorite producer has very few hits
He's the man, great talent
That talkbox tho!! Devante is amazing.
I Love That They Use A Talkbox On Can U Get Wit It
Usher and Tevin Campbell was in control of the 90’s
That beat got Devante all over it!
Right DeVante went hard and his beats have a signature sound fasho 💯 I didn’t know he produced this song but now you mention it this beat definitely sounds like it could’ve been a Jodeci song easy 💯🔊🎶🔥🔥
Timbaland was apart of it to
@@BUNRUNFUNwhat did Timbalsnd do apart frim press tbe record button 😂
I lowkey wish he'd redo this so it can get the respect it deserves.
Timeless song. It represents that era and a young man getting his break into the industry not trying to be tied down
I agree
I would like him to redo the entire album.
He kinda neglects this album cause it didn't do very well and this song in particular faced alot of backlash people didn't like the fact that he was 15 singing about sex and understandably so
These new kids will be quick to call it old sounding and dismiss it
Every time I listen to this song, I play 3:52 to 4:13 over and over. I love the break down & Devante in the background.
This album although not commercially successful was my favorite in 94/95 I was 23/24, the writing was done by Donell Jones and Faith Evans on several tracks and production by DeVante Swing on a few in my opinion it’s my 2nd favorite Album by Usher after 8701 !
Usher is and always will be HIM
He was young as hell talkng bout take off yo clothes 🤣🤣 shoutout to my childhood
@@WingoTribe704He just turned 15 when recording that song😒
@@KadeSutherland yea we was fucking at 15 👊🏾😉
I swear this Usher song is sadly overlooked to this day compared to his follow-up Club-bangers later on in the 90s.
Probably because he was more straight R&B on this song. Whereas his other songs and club bangers were more pop
I remember watching this video and my mom saying “that boy’s gonna make it, he has that “It”. She was right, true R&B legend for the generation 💜
i am serious, lemme drink a lo of water, an =d buy a lot of water, i will need it, and stop peeing me million times a day, usher, it is a huge pyschological torture, please stop it
I knew it too, especially with MY way album
Love this song! That signature Devante sound.

Same thing I said..❤
he was 15 snd singin so lovely😍😍😍😍😍

That Worthy jersey was Flames!!! The music, the style. I miss this era so much. It’s crazy almost 30 years later this is still my fav Usher track.
That Hartford Whalers (Now Carolina Hurricanes) jersey is dope too
1994 i was 16 when this joint came out.. nothing like 90’s RnB!!
ohh pls. give us this good usher back, i miss this kind style of R&B, with so deep feeling and passion... (throwback of 1994)
I wholeheartedly agree!
Class of 1994!!!

Yesssss
Still one of my favorite songs
mane devante had some sick ass beats
Damn, this song was so underrated, they need to play this more & more, real talk ,, 🔥🔥🔥🔥
DeVanté Swing is one of the greatest producers ever.
Much Love. Much Light.
Stay strong 💖
This and the remix are DeVante's best beats of all time. Period. #classic
yessir and man this was sensual like freaking you beat and you could crop walk , g-style off that b*#%'!
I remember I had the TAPE not CD lol. Brings back memories. Love me some Usher.
Yuuuuuup!! I do ya one better... I had the cassette SINGLE...lolol
DeVante knocked this out the park
Devante Swing a Genius
Nothing but nostalgia for this 44 year old 😎
So glad I was born to a generation that experience real R&B music. This was one of my favorites cuts and still in 2023
Classic Usher was just a baby....Love this song
I love the early 90s music .. nothing like it!

He was Diddy’s daddy boy
aaliyah and r kelly - age aint nun but a number
diddy and usher - can you get with it…..in my opinion is all ima say…
Diddy ❤ him too

Omg i love this song soooo much!!!💖 takes me back to being 14 again💞
This was actually a really good album.
Only problem usher was too young for the subject matters
In terms of longevity Usher has to be close to number 1 because he started so young....can't think of an artist that can compare who's still alive and had such a consistent career 🤔

So loved this album. Don't care what anyone says every album he's released fit the times.
Devante is a genius.
Mad funky man
Devante used to producing his ass off back then
Everything Devante Swing, Al B Sure, Teddy Riley or Babyface wrote back then was a huge hit.
This has Devante Swing alllllllll over it forsure. Memories 🔥
I remember being 15 coming home from school and seeing this video for the first time. You can even imagine how loud a 15 yr old girl can scream. LOL.
Jamming

He said "Devante say it again" like K-Ci has sooooo many times before him....them Jodeci lyrics at the end
straight Jodeci sound . Eerrrsher killed it as a young boy.

Devante & Usher ate this up🔥🔥🔥🖤🖤
