Usher's magnum opus "Confessions" turns 18 years old this month

[TheDarkCloud]

GOAT R&B Project of the 2000s? This is tough because D'Angelo's 'Voodoo' was released in 2000 wasn't it? What about 'The Emancipation of Mimi'?

This album isn’t even close to being the GOAT 2000s r&b project. It’s not even the best Usher album.

So many strong joints came out that decade.

Aaliyah’s red album.

Brandy’s Full Moon.

Songs In a Minor

Mary J’s The breakthrough

Mama’s Gun

8701

VooDoo

 

[MustafaSTL]

This is better than 8701?

Is this a trick question?

 

[KingJay]

Imagine thinking this is better than Voodoo

 

[Mandizi]

One of my favorite R&B albums ever. Usher ran it that year.

 

[NigerianDonDada]

classic

 

[I love Latina women]

I put this shyt on so many mixed CDs back in the day

Word, I did too!

 

[I love Latina women]

Usher pump faked us tho

2 of the best joints weren't on the OG album. This and Confession Pt 1

Think me and my sister bought like 4 copies of this album to get all the joints

Yeah, I remember the album version being different from the bootleg version one of my best friends had.

 

[Neo. The Only. The One.]

TP-2.com, Chocolate Factory and Ne-Yo's In My Own Words come close to Confessions



It's 1a, 1b between Confessions and Chocolate Factory

I can agree with this. Folks really sleep on that Neyo body of work

This the content I joined for

Album damn near made me a man. That's what it's made for captures that 04 sound so well then the confessions remix with kanye that had shyne rappin from jail

been listening to this in the whip the last couple weeks that Shyne and Kanye verse

 

[Rev Leon Lonnie Love]

Breh, that album is an undeniable classic. I still wake up on a random Sunday from time to time to blast "All That You Are" as loud as I can.

whose album is that??

Album came out when I was barely a teenager but I went back maybe a year ago and listened to this, Because of You, and Year of the Gentleman with the face the entire way through. Ne-Yo doesnt get the recognition he deserves.

In My Own words was the soundtrack to my high school years. made so many memories off those songs

This is better than 8701?

YES!

 

[B...]

My favorite song on the album is this

Yessir

 

[I love Latina women]

Yessir

 

[e001]

I like pretty much every song but "Truth Hurts" will forever be my shyt.

"Throwback" and "That's What It's Made For" are the other two who are above the others for me.

"Burn" is the most skippable but it's still a good song.

 

[Nintendough]

This was Usher's Kamehameha. Best album he made and top 5 of the 2000's. Top 10 last 25 years.

 

[zayk35]

His biggest seller no doubt..... but it ain't thriller level it is still R&B of the moment and didn't change the way albums were made or marketed

 

[zayk35]

Great album man. This shyt and 8701 were back to back championships. I really wish usher would go back to JD to write and produce another classic but thats the reason usher cant have the crown because his best work isnt written by him.


All the songs yall listed were my favorites back then but a few years later simple things became my favorite grown man song

That's never been criteria for r&b
