Usher is certainly filling the coming year with a lot of excitement as he has just announced that he will be performing at the Super Bowl Halftime Show on February 11, 2024. Adding to the thrill of the day, Usher will be releasing his first album in seven years, Coming Home, on the same day.
The 44-year-old Grammy winner was confirmed for the prestigious slot on Sunday with a video shared on social media, starring Kim Kardashian. The R&B star is set to join the likes of Rihanna, Shakira, Jennifer Lopez and Beyoncé, who have all headlined the Super Bowl in the past.
The listing on Apple Music revealed the 20-track album and promised a 20-track album, which also includes his song Good Good with Summer Walker and 21 Savage from earlier this year. The album artwork features Usher holding a peach behind his neck, likely a nod to his home state of Georgia’s famous export.
The Yeah! hitmaker said of his upcoming gig: ‘It’s an honour of a lifetime to finally check a Super Bowl performance off my bucket list. I can’t wait to bring the world a show unlike anything else they’ve seen from me before. Thank you to the fans and everyone who made this opportunity happen. I’ll see you real soon.’
Usher has made a name for himself with his first few albums, but was propelled to fame in 2004 with the release of Confessions. The album went number one on both sides of the Atlantic and secured the best contemporary R&B album Grammy. He followed this success with Here I Stand in 2008, Raymond v Raymond in 2010, Looking 4 Myself in 2012, and Hard II Love in 2016, all of which reached the top ten in the UK and US album charts.
The singer currently has a residency in Las Vegas – Usher: My Way – which has drawn sold-out shows, enthusiastic audiences and rave reviews. He recently hit the headlines alongside Keke Palmer for poking fun of her being mum-shamed by her partner at one of his shows. Usher is also set to begin an eight-night residency at La Seine Musicale in Paris on Sunday, with the run ending on October 5. Additionally, he has served as a coach on the US The Voice and appeared in several films.
The anticipation is high as fans eagerly await to see what Usher has in store for the Super Bowl Halftime Show and his new album Coming Home. From the sounds of it, February 11, 2024, is going to be an amazing day!
