Confessions [Special Edition] - Usher

A CD is always more compelling when you know it's lifted from the artist's autobiography, ... more

and that's certainly the case with Confessions,
Usher's first record since 2001's 8701. The
Atlanta singer's string of hits over the past
decade have been decidedly under-18s rated, almost
veering towards teen pop, but he's changed all
that on this coproduced offering, which he claims
is "the real him". It would be too simplistic to
just brand this record a break-up record,
chronicling his public split with TLC's Rozonda
"Chili" Thomas; it is that, but so much more. It
would be more accurate to call this Usher's
coming-of-age record, bridging the gap from boy to
man, as he navigates the emotional fallout from
the disintegration of his relationship and the
events that led up to it--real or imagined.But
other than a guilty conscience, it seems unclear
why Usher feels compelled to disgorge his secret
life, as he documents his infidelities,
transgressions and emotional perfidy in the
album's prodigious 17 songs that range from
insinuating sultry R&B grooves to the decidedly
crunky "Yeah", which pairs an insistent keyboard
romp with Lil' Jon's assertive beats and Ludacris'
rather humid rhymes. This tracks shines all the
more since it's the only club track, but you find
yourself pining for more, since most of the other
songs tend to get bogged down in his lush,
feverish balladry. That's not a bad thing, but the
disc would have been better served by a few more
muscular tracks. --Jaan Uhelszki, Amazon.com

Usher's Confessions

Advantages: Lots of big singles
Disadvantages: A couple of the tunes are just average

"Confessions" is one of the most popular R&B albums ever, and has Usher on top of his game in 2004. This album when on to sell in excess of nine million worldwide, far outdoing anything which he had done prior to this. Unlike most in the UK, I was into Usher's music long before anything in this release, and actually preferred things from "My Way" and "8701" to his switch to Crunk & B, however this is when his big break ...
.../> 2. "Yeah!"

This was the massive single off the album, and the one which estbalished Usher's position of the mega force in music, and not just one of the top performers in R&B. Here, after gaining the help of Hip Hop's Ludacris and the Atlanta producer, Lil' Jon, Ush is able to come with an amazing fusion, making Crunk & B, which Ciara did a little earlier, and was able to appeal to people who listen to various genres ... more

Advantages: decent voice, good lyrics

...forget who. 5/10 4. Confessions (interlude) Of course you've all heard this, its at the beginning of the confessions video. Its a nice interlude with user singing over a piano backtrack. 5. Confessions Part II What, where was part 1 you say? Iy was a bonus on the UK edition, and is now on the special edition in the US as well. A bit stupid if ask me. Anyway when i first heard this track, I was like wow, Jermaine Dupri did a great job on the ...
...this track. 8.5/10 19. Confessions Pt I (UK Bonus) Yep, it does exist! A stunning r&b track, with smooth vocals and production from Jermaine Dupri. This is one of my faves. It probably won't grip you like Confession Pt II, but it a great track nonetheless. 9.5/10 Other songs you may know of, which are on the special edition except sweet lies, are: My Boo (Duet w/ Alicia Keys) A very nice R&B track, with great production. Both artists deliver ...

Confessions

Advantages: very vocal,great lyrics,great tunes
Disadvantages: most songs are slow songs

...which as titled is his confessions after being unfaithful to Girlfriend TLC's Rozonda "Chili" Thomas in a very public split. This album is very r & b, very soulful, very vocal, it has great lyrics, its easy listening but most of the tracks are the slow tracks that are Usher (U remind me, U got it bad) so if you wanting more tunes like Yeah! You may be disappointed. My fave tracks by far have got to be Burn, it’s a typical Usher song, but the lyrics ...
...this album his about his confessions and that he is still strong. Yeah! (4.08) Ok so you must have heard this song by now, and you may be getting sick of it because of the amount of times its played on TV and radio. But it’s a great tune with a great beat and a very catchy tune. It features a rap part from Ludacris (Stand Up, Rollout (My Business), Area Codes, 2 fast 2 furious) who’s part is very catchy and also an appearance by Lil John who actually ...

I have a confession of my own - this rocks!

Advantages: wondeful lyrics, heart-felt songs
Disadvantages: mainly slow songs, if you think thats a disadvantage

...whole experience of listening to Confessions by Usher is enjoyable. It is so nice to see an artist mature in the way Usher has. In the past year or so he has had to deal with an extremely public break-up and impregnating a girl he hardly knows. That is what the Confessions album is all about and Usher is really able to make the listener believe the emotions he portrays in his songs because he blieves them himself. There are several interludes/intros ...
...I intended to put Confessions on for 5-10 minutes while getting ready for a party but I couldn't leave until I had heard the entire album. My particular favourite songs are Burn - a typical Usher track, Caught Up - a jumpy number and Confession Part II - Usher's most honest track. The only downfall to the album, if you see it as one, is that Yeah! and Caught Up are the only real dancy tracks on the album as the others are all reasonably slow. The ...

Usher- Confessions

Advantages: A great album to relax to, nice to hear someone tell the truth
Disadvantages: Its Usher- could there possibly be any? Really?

...which as titled is his confessions after being unfaithful to Girlfriend TLC's "Chili". Usher confesses that he had an affair with another girl whom he got pregnant. The lyrical content of this album is great as Usher confronts the issues which many of us have experienced in relationships. This album is sensuous, conveying pure emotional lyrics in the most dire of situations. The very essence of the tragic circumstances is reiterated through out the ...
...the story. I think the album is so evoking, as you feel very involved as you feel like he’s telling you the story- or as though you’re listening to HOT gossip! I think that the most moving track on the album is 'Confessions'. Usher does a great job in demonstrating how the he has hurt ‘Chilli’, why he did what he did, the consequences of his actions and the emotional rollercoaster he too has been on, due to his own actions. It makes you feel sympathy ...

Beats, Lyrics, Voice. [Usher's Confessions] Classic or what?

Advantages: Every song has its own way to love.
Disadvantages: Theres nothing to dislike.

Listening to the powerful beginning of the [Intro], you know this album is going to have it's own very true meaning of each song. Hard to hate, easy to love because Usher knows how to make each song unforgettable. No matter how many other influential singers out there with there powerful albums, Usher's Confessions is memorable, always. I personally think that this is one of the best albums to get out there, one of the truest artist there is.In my opinion people MUST HAVE this album. Every song is brilliant in its own way. [Beats] - must say, its all very different - just hearing the instrumentals, you can tell it's a part of Usher's album.. [Lyrics] - The way he sings each song, you cannot forget the lyrics, it's in him to make every song of his addictive. [Voice] - AMAZING! He knows how to put the meaning in music ...

Review of Confessions (Special Edition) - Usher

usher confessions

Advantages: excellentt, awesome music by a fit singer!
Disadvantages: none that i could possibly think of!

I?ve liked usher for ages and when I got his album I was over the moon! Intro-The intro isn?t much, just a short song to introduce the album (confessions) about the album. Yeah feat lil john and ludicrous- This song is up beat and it?s a good song to dance and sing to! It?s all about being in a club and dancing with some girls and they?re trying to turn it into more of a one night stand! Throwback- In the song it doesn?t actually say anything about ?throwback? but who said it does. This song is good but not as good as the others! It?s about getting thrown back by a girl and never knowing what you?ve got until you?ve lost it. He ends up being heartbroken and regretting taking his girl for granted Confessions- This song doesn?t sound like ?confessions? (but I haven?t heard it for ages as I?m always listening to his other songs ...
