I have a feeling that this might be his best era ever music wise
+ 1!!!

I really think he is going to own musically and be very dominant commercially. I really hope they push this era smoothly, like the Prince himself!
yes! i want multi-No.1s on R'n'B chart and a huge pop single ala OMG dominating H100 and digital sales! I got huge expectation for the album :D :D :D

I don't just want a "OMG" hit. I want several!!! But I speak of the "type" of hit OMG was, along with Yeah, Burn, Caught Up and so on... i.e. multi-format smashes that tear up pop, urban and rythmic formats all in one.

I think this will be the key to Usher's success. I want every song, even the most R&B ones, to get releases to all formats like he used to do.
"Take A Bow"... Rihanna's ONLY ballad to go #1 on the Hot 100 (also topped the R&B Chart)... Great deed for her most epic ballad!!!

Exactly! The man's perfectly capable of drawing in audiences from all walks of life, his r&b songs can be very attractive to pop fans and vice versa. Make use of this!

^^^ Me too! But it's good for now! And this, as we know, is a buzz single.

I am hoping for a masterful marketing strategy, great pricing and splendid promo to push this era... along with great singles for the next 18 months. Usher does better with longer eras!

Then... the tour!

Urban and rythmic combined are only roughly 24 or 25 mill. AI is the other 4 or 3 mill. coming from pop???

Probably!
Climax has a weekly increase of more than 200 spins on Top 40 format.
I hope it will reach the Top 50 in pop radios soon...
