Raymond » (2010), which served as a continuation of « Here I Stand» musically, but it was even worse received by Usher’s admirers. A similar fate awaited the album « Raymond v. Critics were at variance – some celebrated Usher’s musical growth as a songwriter, some criticized the departure from his usual style. In spite of the warmly received single « Love in This Club», the album barely managed to reach one million sales in the U.S. The success of « Confessions» was once again confirmed by Usher’s next album « Here I Stand», released in 2008.

Singles « Can U Get Wit it» and « Think of You» were a little luckier - they were among the top hundred of the new recordings. The singer's self-titled debut album « Usher» was released in 1994, and reached only No.167 in the U.S. Over the fifteen years he has sold nearly seventy million albums worldwide, received seven “Grammy” awards and many others.
