USHER WENT VIRAL AFTER A STUNNING ‘TINY DESK’ PERFORMANCE
Usher went viral after he graced the ‘Tiny Desk’ stage with his legendary rhymes and vocals. Usher performed the best of his lengthy catalog of hits and did not disappoint his fans.
Kicking off the show, Usher loosened up the crowd as he launched into his 1997 hit ‘You Make Me Wanna’ from his second album ‘My Way.’ The album celebrates its 25th anniversary this year. This performance was the one that sent him on a viral run and made him a trending topic on Twitter.
You can always leave it up to Black Twitter for some fun. The online community had a field day with memes from his performance. See below.

Usher continued the show with performances of ‘Superstar,’ ‘U Don’t Have to Call,’ ‘Nice & Slow,’ ‘Confessions Part II,’ and ‘My Way.’ In addition, he took the opportunity to highlight recently Grammy-nominated artist Eric Bellinger and singer/songwriter Vedo. He thanked them as brothers and allowed them to shine by performing solo vocally.
Usher could have easily performed for two hours, but fans would not have enough until he did his entire catalog. He sang effortlessly, sounding identical to the studio recording of each song.
