Usher has actually discovered love in this club called fathership.
While the R&B icon is certainly delighted to burn up the phase at the 2024 Super Bowl Halftime Show, there’s absolutely nothing that makes him state “Yeah!” rather like being a father to kids Usher “Cinco” V, 16, Naviyd Raymond, 15, Soveriegn, 3, and Sire, 2. In reality, Usher’s youngsters act as his most significant musical motivations.
Take, for instance, his tune “I Cry,” which the Grammy winner composed after experiencing a psychological minute with his 2 earliest kids while viewing a motion picture together.
“I’m not shy in terms of being honest with my kids about the fact that I didn’t have a relationship with my father at all,” Usher shared in 2020 interview with radio station WPGC 95.5 FM. “And there was a moment between a son and a father and it got to me—I started crying. So, my kids, they look over at me and they’re like, ‘Are you crying?!'”
