For more than 20 years, Usher has captured the music world with his sensual croon, R&B anthems, club hits, and self-proclaimed “revolutionary pop.” Usher’s 2012 album Looking 4 Myself spawned the megahits “Scream” and “Climax,” the latter sustaining an 11-week reign atop Billboard’s Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart, his 12th number one on the chart, and earning Usher a Grammy Award for Best R&B performance. Ticket buyers praise Usher’s sheer athleticism and explosive dance numbers in concert, but also appreciate his agile voice when his falsetto elicits screams from the crowds. Usher has toured and collaborated with many artists including Trey Songz, will.i.am, and Miguel. Usher was key in Justin Bieber’s career mentoring the young popstar and was a coach on NBC’s reality singing competition The Voice during its fourth season.
Usher found success in the late 1990s with hits like “Nice & Slow” and later with his Grammy Award-winning singles, “U Remind Me” and “U Don’t Have to Call.” A critics and fan favorite, Confessions (2004) produced the massive hits “Yeah!” and “Confessions Part II.”
Usher is currently working on his next album and will appear in “Hands of Stone” as the boxing legend Sugar Ray Leonard alongside Robert De Niro in 2014.

I disappointed, he was doing lots of slow songs. I was expecting some of his fast songs. I personally did not like the show.
OMG. I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS DAY IS FINALLY HERE!!!!!!! Vancouver Fans be prepared!!!!!!!!!
Usher and Akon was an AWESOME concert! This was my anniversary present from my husband and I couldn't have asked for anything more. I had a blast! I would go and see Usher again and again.I loved everything!
Waited 45mins for Usher to come on stage...I didn't know it was going to be that long been to other concerts it was much of a shorter wait. It was cool though Usher came up from a platform and floated above all the screaming girls below. I definately liked his tribute to Michael Jackson to inspire him to become a Dancer & a Singer.
This was amazing, great dancing, light show, awesome !!
Loved the show, he can sure dance !! Enjoyed when he went over the crowd on the moveable little stage.
Usher was amazing!! He sang everything from his old to new songs. I love how he gave a shout out to our CANUCKS! He knows how to get the crowd goin! Akon was just as good. I wish there was a little more of him. He rocked the CANUCKS jersey too..but he kept it. Past concerts I've gone to this year usually throw the jersey to the fans...looked kinda cheap if you ask me! Akon sounds EXACTLY like his CDs live. Concert was amazing....highly reccomended!
Akon was amazing and so full of energy!! Usher was awesome and entertaining!!! Loved the Canucks Jerseys!!
By far the best concert I have ever been to. This was more than just a concert it was an event, with the pyrotechnics and choreography it will put any other concert to shame.
Usher put on an amazing show. He is a great singer and dancer, no doubt. He touches the crowd when he sings! OMG.. he is goood. I love Akon, and I went to the concert more for him. If he ever has his own show in Toronto, I will definately be there!!. Our seats weren't that good. We were off to the side, and could see everything backstage. We won't be sitting in that section ever again. I loved Ushers sparkling shoes he had, they were nice!. I wish he played some of his old songs from the past. Overall, it was worth seeing him :)
All I have to say is Usher...you are more than welcome to come back to Vancouver for another concert! What an amazing concert, best experience ever, I'm glad I bought tickets for this show. Concert was simply HOT!
Akon was great - no frills or gimmicks since I guess he's not allowed to go overboard and steal the show from Usher. So considering the lack of fireworks, light shows, et cetra Akon was amazing - and a great drummer! Usher was on the stage for 2 hours!!! It was great - you leave knowing you got your money's worth! Did all of the good old stuff - and his new stuff.
I am so happy I decided to go to this concert! I have been an Usher fan since the very beginning, since I was about 8 years olds, so I was so happy when I found out that Usher was FINALLY coming to Vancouver! And he did not disappoint! The show was amazing and his performance was great (of course, it is Usher I'm talking about). He played a good mixture of his old stuff and his newer stuff and he even had a little heart-to-heart time to talk to the audience which was really sweet. Akon - He was good (however, I was more there for Usher). He definitely set the stage for Usher and played some good songs. (P.s. he also was shirtless! :P ) Overall, I had an AMAZING night!
The Usher concert left me feeling very emotional. Having been a fan of his since he was a kid it was so awesome that he finally came in concert. I was left feeling like I may not ever see him again. When it was all said and done I felt like we had paid too little, we were entertained well beyond what we paid. He looked good, sounded good and the dancing was superb! Well done and please come back :)
I enjoyed Usher's concert very much! I just wish I had the chance to see all of what was happening on stage. There were taller fans seated in my view. I'm a dancer and would have loved to be able to see Usher's and his dancers foot work. The whole atmosphere was great! The next time I decide to attend a concert, I will not choose seats on the floor. I'm really happy that we had seats, don't get me wrong. I just wish we could have seen more of what was going on...
Although I was disappointed that usher did not sing or perform some of his older material such as my way and or pop your collar, he is still one of the best performers of all times. Great dancing and overall pyrotechnics. He was lovely and gracious and i really enjoyed his tribute to MJ, I believe it is quite fitting because one can see the large MJ influence in both Ushers music and dancing. I think what would really make it a great show is if both Usher and Akon performed at least one song together.
USHER is an amazing performer as well as his dance crew! 5th row seats is the way to go!!! VIP Package.
AMAZING performer, AWESOME show even Akon rocked the house
best concert i have been to in a long time. loved akon!! tribute to MJ was a nice touch.
