Undying loyalty.
The above comes to mind when one thinks of Justin Bieber‘s relationship with his ‘Beliebers’.
Of course, while this loyalty is yet to see him match sales nabbed by One Direction or the critical acclaim afforded to Justin Timberlake, it has ensured he is guaranteed to ‘smash’ with every project he sends their way.
His latest? A phenomenal acoustic take on his #1 album, ‘Believe‘, flaunting the talent that will no doubt surprise any who’d written him off as just another cardboard cut out Pop Prince.
Now find out why he’s set to top the Billboard 200 with the EP below…
Featuring cuts penned by Songwriter TC (Brandy- ‘Wish Your Love Away‘) and Grammy nominated sensation Elijah Blake , the release is on course to move between 180- 200k come next chart week, giving the ‘As Long As You Love’ me star his latest #1 collection.
Topping iTunes UK and USA upon launch, the release will extend Justin’s current chart reign which saw 2012′s ‘Believe’ hit sales of 1,324,000 million units in the US alone, one month after arrival.

I was just about to say, aint it funny that he is more famous than Usher will ever be. His love life alone is famous. He is worth over $ 100 mill so quick and at 19. Poor usher.

smh. Naw Usher is just sitting back counting his money, that he’s getting from Bieber. He’s not really concerned with his popularity now that he has kids, I don’t think you remember but Usher was everywhere in the early 2000′s until he took a hiatus. I’m sure Usher will be making news later this year when is boxing movie gets released.

Usher has a diamond album, something Justin will never have. Trust me Usher doesn’t care about being as big as Justin is he already been there. Call me when Justin sell over 20 million copies of one album like Usher did or better yet when he sell over a million copies of his album in the first week like Usher did. For Justin to be so love in the white America I would have expected for his first week numbers to be way bigger than that.

This! I don’t know how many times I have to say this, but Usher doesn’t care about being big, he even said so himself that he didn’t care about his sales, just as long as the quality of his music is good. Justin may be popular right now, but he will never have the amount of impact Usher has.

He is crap musically but those are great numbers. I think his last album underperformed first week cos he had such great momentum with all the teens and all that but he “only” did 300,000? If I´m correct (probably not). So 200,000 for an acoustic album are good numbers…
He´s on my list of “wish they could dissapear” people though. Living their lives leaving music business alone lol

And guess what, her idol is Madonna.
Avril, 26, said: “I definitely can see myself still being out there in 20 years’ time.
“I want to be around the way Madonna has done it. She’s had her life but still maintained her career throughout.”

Prince performed the living hell out of himself true and Bruce always delivers. True about Madge and Mike but Mike performed like no other (his dancing I mean) and Madonna’s stage was just phenomenal. Janet wasn’t a mess other than the obvious nipple slip I mean.

I think Janet didn’t give her best while dancing, MJ moves were an event, i give him that, a true performer and Madonna’s stage was the best among all the halftime shows, ironically Madonna’s presence on stage is magnetic even when she is not giving her 100%.

I refuse to act like poor numbers are good. For all the attention, promotion and Justin gets, his album should be MULTIPLATINUM now. Ideally he should be at around 6x platinum, not fuckin’ 1.3 million. That’s a FLOP! Undying loyalty my ass. 1999 Britney is laughing at him! 2013 Adele is laughing at him!

Preach, of course Justin is big now he has all the teenagers going crazy over him. They will buy anything that has his name on it. Let’s see what happens to him once he hits puberty than we can start comparing him to Usher, Trust it is not easy to go from a child star to an adult star ask Bow Wow in the music business!

Preach it! He may be popular right now, but he will never leave an impact like Usher has. He will never inspire other artists like Usher has simply because he isn’t original. He’s just a JT and Usher ripoff.

Are people REALLY comparing Bieber to Usher?
Like really?
Let’s wait till Justin hits 23 and we’ll see where his career is. Chris Brown is 23 and is already on his way down.
Usher passed the test of time and his body of work is untouchable. He has deceived us a couple of times but in his prime, he was THAT guy.
Congrats to Justin but clearly he’s not as hot as he used to be. The One Direction guys are getting all the attention already with their bad boys ways.

Well done, shame about the terrible music though.
People care more about first week sales and chart positions rather than the quality of the actual music.
