The Super Bowl is a spectacular event that captures the attention of millions of viewers around the world. The final game for the US National Football League trophy attracts millions of viewers to the screens, so the world’s most popular musicians are selected for the show during the big halftime show. Headliners have included The Weeknd, Lady Gaga, BeyoncĂ©, Madonna, Justin Timberlake and Kendrick Lamar. The headlining artist at last year’s Super Bowl was Rihanna, who announced her second pregnancy at the concert. The following year, the baton passed to Usher.
Despite the fact that the peak of the musician’s career seemed to be behind him, the organisers of the event still chose him as the main performer. The concert will take place on 11 February 2024. This will open a new chapter in the event’s history, as Usher’s performance will take place at the Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas. The venue will be the new venue. Perhaps the invitation is a thank you from the organisers for the many years of his successful career. For Usher himself, the event is particularly important. He states that he is incredibly excited to present to the world a show that will be unique and unlike anything else.
To make the event even more colourful, Usher announced the release of his ninth album “Coming Home” on Super Bowl day. It will be his first solo release since his 2016 album “Hard II Love,” which reached number five on the Billboard 200 chart. Over the past two years, he released a collaborative album with music producer Zaytoven before taking a long break. In 2023, Usher has stepped up again, releasing several singles, one of which titled “Good Good” will be part of his upcoming album. It’s a collaborative project with Summer Walker and 21 Savage.
