Not only is Vegas his dream come true, Usher’s run at Caesars Palace gives him a platform to showcase the cultural zeitgeist that continues to happen in his hometown. In the meantime, Usher relishes having his bright billboards stretching up and down the Vegas strip. There’s also his still untitled ninth studio LP he says is “full of ATL’s finest” coming out next year. Usher recently announced he’s expecting his fourth child. I get a chance to go to the other side that I’ve always wanted.” If not here, where else? I could do it on tour, but it really works here. “I wanted to get that and for that to be seen in this Vegas show. “What they supplied us with is the fantasy, stardom and expectation,” Usher adds. Michael, Luther Vandross and all of those guys that wore those incredible outfits in those times, I get it now. “It’s ridiculous, but it’s all for the sake of entertainment. “I’m doing things like pilates and yoga to really be able to not hurt myself,” Usher said. Comparing his perfectionist attitude to “Army training,” Usher, recently named Remy Martin’s new spokesperson, reveals he spent two years silently working out of Cascade Family Skating to perfect his craft. Usher was originally set to hit Vegas in July 2020 but had to postpone because of the coronavirus pandemic. “Me and the team created some intimate musical moments with new versions of some of his hits that people haven’t heard him perform like he does in the show.” “I wanted the show to be a party as well as showcase his vocal range,” Jon adds. “I wanted to take people on a musical journey with hit after hit and no room for them to breathe.” “The goal is to create a non-stop party,” Lil Jon said.

Ticket buyers praise Usher’s sheer athleticism and explosive dance numbers in concert, but also appreciate his agile voice when his falsetto elicits screams from the crowds. Would give it 10 stars if I could.įor more than 20 years, Usher has captured the music world with his sensual croon, R&B anthems, club hits, and self-proclaimed “revolutionary pop.” Usher’s 2012 album Looking 4 Myself spawned the megahits “Scream” and “Climax,” the latter sustaining an 11-week reign atop Billboard’s Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart, his 12th number one on the chart, and earning Usher a Grammy Award for Best R&B performance. He doesn't miss with any of his big hits: Confessions, Yeah!, You Make Me Wanna, You Don't Have to Call.everything was perfect. I would definitely love to see the show again if I'm in Vegas. If you have the opportunity to see him live at his residency, do please go. Usher still performs like a 20 year old, from rolling by on roller skates to dancing in tight synchronization with his background dancers. With the size of the Dolby Live venue, I don't think there's a bad seat in the house. It was just an awesome experience all around. His special guest was Stokely and he also brought Issa Rae on stage to serenade her. He even touched our outstretched hands as he ran past at the end of the set.

One of the best investments ever! There are only a few times when his back is to the general admission pit, but otherwise, we were able to see everything up close and personal. I bought general admission standing tickets. The sets are elaborate - from the carnival scene from My Way to the strip club scene for I Don't Mind to the bed he has on stage for Bad Habits, etc.

He adds in a lot of his recent material as well. Usher takes us on a trip through time, performing his hits from My Way on up.

The title says it all - it was the best show I've ever attended. Absolutely, positively, the BEST show I've ever attended.
