comprehensive program that develops passion-driven, global leaders.

Challenging himself creatively and testing musical boundaries
are characteristics that have defined Usher's career since he was
first discovered 20 years ago on "Star
Search." Usher has been ranked by the Recording Industry
Association of America as one of the best-selling artists in
American music history, having sold over 65 million albums
worldwide. He has won numerous awards, including eight
GRAMMY® Awards, and was named the #1 Hot 100
artist of the 2000s decade. Billboard named him the second most
successful artist of the 2000s decade, with his career-propelling
2004 album "Confessions" being ranked as the top solo
album of the 2000s decade. Usher has attained nine Hot 100 #1 hits
(all as a lead artist) and 18 Hot 100 top 10 singles.
2020 continues to be a busy year for Usher. Musically, he
recently released the single "Don't Waste My Time," which hit #1 on
Billboard's R&B chart, as well as "I Cry," a powerful and
emotional song about the social and racial injustices of our time.
Usher is currently in the studio recording his ninth studio album
which will be released in late 2020.
Realizing that with success comes responsibility, Usher has also
proven to be a major philanthropic force. Founded in 1999, Usher's
New Look, Inc. empowers youth from impoverished communities to
become leaders. In recognition of his accomplishments, Usher has
been honored by the Boys & Girls Clubs of America, the Trumpet
Foundation, Do Something, the NAACP, and as the 2010 Ford Freedom
Award Scholar. Usher's business ventures include a best-selling
line of fragrances, and a business venture with RBMG (Raymond Braun
