Usher’s show in Las Vegas proves he’s still in good shape and his fans like that. It was a moment to revive some of his age-long hits, and Usher did that nice and slow when possible and faster sometimes, if that’s what it takes.
The singer promises fans more in the month of December.

Usher has revelaed that he got an exciting call from Jay-Z about the Apple Music Super Bowl LVIII Halftime Show which will hold next year, 2024.
After it was announced he would be headlining the major performance, he spoke about a conversation he had with the rapper, when he found out about big news.
In an interview with radio DJ Zane Lowe on Apple Music 1, Usher also talked about how he feels about headlining the Apple Music Super Bowl LVIII Halftime show set for February 11, 2024.
Usher also said his ‘big homie’ reached out to him personally.
He recalled what the Roc Nation founder said to him on the phone: ‘When I got this call, he said, “It’s time, it’s magic time. You know, it’s time for you to have that moment.”
He said that he was confused about what Jay-Z was referring to at the time of the call.

Usher knew his performance at the Super Bowl is something that’s bound to happen.
‘I think that everything that led up to that moment, going to Las Vegas for my residency for the last two years. The legacy, obviously, that is the music, the celebration of entertainment in that place. It’s the City of Lights.’
‘You know, it’s always been a place where entertainers go and find love and passion, connection to their fans,’ he said. ‘So for the Super Bowl to have made its way to Las Vegas while we were in Vegas, having such an amazing two years…’
‘It is definitely going to be a moment to remember,’ he said before adding that performing at the Halftime Show ‘has been on my bucket list for a long time’.
‘This is the most grand stage to ever play on,’ he added. ‘Those 13 minutes mean everything.’
