    Usher will unfortunately never top Confessions still his best album to this day 💯.
  • @trindellbrown
    Confessions was so huge. 2004 was all about Usher. He literally owned that year with the album
  • @mikewootson2085
    Confessions is one those albums you listen to get over a break up and clear all negativity to grow and become a better man. This album and Nostalgia Ultra for me is definitely those albums that heal you.
  • @NStar9
    I feel like impact of this album gives it a spot in the top 50, 95 is crazy
  • @techbypeel
    How is this only 95.... apple got it all the way wrong this should be at least top 10 easily
  • @mutechannel13
    Usher is the man. Dude been cool his whole life. Usher never dropped a bad album. 8701 is my favorite album

    For those that weren't born yet or just too young to know, that whole Confessions era was an EXPERIENCE!! The youngsters might listen to it now and like the music but they just don't know how much of a MONSTER this album was that took the world by storm. This was all in a pre social media world too. I still got my Confessions(It was called The Truth Tour with KANYE WEST as an OPENING ACT!!) ticket stub to this day.

    Best album of all time and still is the top R&B album on a global scale. It still breaks legendary records to this day. Keep up the awesome work Usher. Your tour will be legendary this year and your upcoming re-release of Coming Home will be great. More great things are coming in your direction, I know u will rule.
  • @SoftLoft
    Confessions is R&B's Innervisions to me.
  • @aware5248

  • @sodam4416
    I listened to Usher 's album with interest It was music that touched my heart It's nice to see Usher's expression bright, too 🎉😊
  • @LADONDRIC81
    What makes a great album GREAT is that it can’t be topped.. Confessions is his MJ’s Thriller. His Sade Smooth Operator. Every great R&B legend has that one album that can’t be topped. And it shouldn’t be topped
