Usher didn't go pop. Looking 4 Myself is a R&B album and believe it or not, it's his most critically acclaimed album. JT was never R&B he is a pop artist. Oh and if you all want Nelly to do Hip Hop and Usher to do R&B, will ya'll buy it or let it flop? First you guys complain that they won't change it up, and when they finally do, you won't buy it because they "sold out". Quit living in the past. If this is what Nelly has to do to sell, then so be it.
