his skills unfortunately outweigh the actual songs if that makes sense, he needs to make a 'warm' sounding project

Yeah, but I was thinking you were going to say he should make that OVO Underwater type of R&B s*** which bores tf out of me nowadays
His late 2000s era along with a few others almost killed RnB until weeknd, frank and drake hopped out

Why do you post like you’re posting facts?
It’s always some trash opinion
There’s no reason to ever talk about any r&b made after 2010
Probably the most tragic death of a music genre ever

UR! I loved that brief era from him. Shame he scrapped it. I Don't Mind, Good Kisser, & She Came To Give It To You is a 3peat. I think a good 14-15 song album from him like that would go crazy.

But tbh I wanna hear Usher try to do some D’Angelo s***

You blame Usher for that exlusively? Every R&B artist had to do that

Nah fam,
Here I Stand wasn't a bad album. Matter fact, pretty underrated looking back. The problem was that Usher went deep into the Adult Contemporary R&B territory with that album, which led to mixed opinions and heavy hate from fans
That's when he had to make Raymond V Raymond, which had him on track Pop wise, but he slowly moved away from R&B.
That resulted in Looking 4 Myself killing off his R&B Audience in 2012.
Also let's not forget what happened the 4 years when Usher was on hiatus:
Chris Brown coming out and took the R&B World by storm
Justin Timberlake released one of the best Pop/R&B projects ever made
And T-Pain completely changing Hip-hop and R&B forever with the use of Autotune
Then you had artists like The Dream, J. Holiday, Lloyd, Omarion, Jamie Foxx, Ne-Yo, Robin Thicke, and Trey Songz.
They all had major hits and great projects during the late 2000s and had a lot of room to gain bigger fanbase during this time.
So Usher had to compete for this, and sadly he couldn't capitalize.
By 2010 imo, that's where R&B started to truly die, because CB was on top, and his sound started to transition into more Pop sound. Big examples is F.A.M.E. and Fortune.
The Early 2010s (besides Weeknd, Frank, Miguel) was full of that EDM s***, while the late 2000s still had a bunch of banger albums.
