Usher has changed music, culture and countless lives. Beyond
selling over 80 million records worldwide and collecting dozens of
awards, he has simultaneously lit up the small screen on
NBC's The Voice and the big screen in blockbusters
such as Hustlers. He has also tirelessly distinguished
himself as a devout humanitarian, raising tens of millions of
dollars for various causes and uplifting youth via his New Look
Foundation since 1999. A true outlier, he was equally at home on
the stage of his blockbuster 2021 Las Vegas residency as he was on
a 2016 government cultural mission to Cuba as part of President Barack Obama's Presidential Committee for Arts
and Humanities. The multiple GRAMMY Award-winning diamond-selling
international megastar, actor, dancer, entrepreneur, philanthropist
and proud Atlanta resident
inspires change yet again in 2022 and beyond.
Thus far, he has gathered eight GRAMMY Awards and emerged
as Billboard's "#1 Hot 100 Artist of the
2000s," "#2 most successful artist of the
2000s," and "one of the best-selling
artists in American music history," according to
the RIAA. He catapulted four consecutive albums to #1 on
the Billboard Top 200, beginning with the landmark
diamond-certified Confessions in 2004. He
continued to push boundaries with a series of singles and shows
before setting the stage for his ninth full-length offering in
2022.
Most importantly, Usher gives back at every turn. Under his
leadership, the New Look Foundation provides opportunities for
young people in underserved communities, enabling them to flourish
and achieve seemingly impossible dreams. He has contributed to
numerous philanthropic causes and historic advancements. He penned
a moving essay in The Washington Post, lobbying for the
recognition of JUNETEENTH as a holiday in 2020. Fostering the
national and eventual congressional conversation, he attended the
signing of the bill making JUNEETEENTH a federal holiday at its
passage during 2021. He has achieved recognition and various honors
from the Boys & Girls Club of America, the Trumpet Foundations,
and Do Something. The NCAAP selected him as its 2010 Ford Freedom
Award Scholar, and Morehouse College
honored him with the prestigious 2014 "Candle
Award." In 2022, he takes the stage at The Beloved
Benefit, which exists to fortify and transform communities
throughout Atlanta.
