Usher brought the hits and heat to the Essence Festival of Culture 2024!

The King of R&B took center stage at the Superdome in New Orleans and blew the proverbial roof off the building with a seismic set that centrally celebrated the 20th anniversary of his Diamond-certified ‘Confessions’ album.

During the epic performance, the icon thrilled with ‘Yeah,’ ‘Superstar,’ ‘Burn,’ ‘My Boo,’ and many non-singles from the mega-selling LP. Indeed, as promised, he performed the entire project from top to bottom in a rare treat specially cultivated for the 30th anniversary of the world-renowned festival.

And while nostalgia defined Usher’s offering, he still slotted in the new-new in the form of his recent hit ‘Good Good.’
