Fans enjoyed preview of the album last year when Usher’s and H.E.R. teamed up on “Risk it All.” The track, produced and written by the California native, was originally featured as part of the soundtrack for The Color Purple. In the music video, the 8701 singer almost bares it all, rocking nothing but a pair of briefs next to his co-star, who has on a strapless corset and black shorts.
Rap-Up confirmed that he has been shortlisted for Entertainer of the Year and Outstanding Male Artist, among other honors. He’ll be facing off against Chris Brown, Burna Boy, Fantasia Barrino and recent Oscar nominee Colman Domingo.

Usher has also been teasing his Super Bowl performance ever since he was announced as the star attraction for the halftime show. In a new Apple Music trailer for the event, it seems like the superstar will be bringing the traditions of Atlanta with him to Sin City.
The 54-second spot is soundtracked by his 2004 smash “Yeah!” featuring Lil Jon and Ludacris, though it was reimagined by a gospel choir, a college marching band and a group of beatboxers at a diner.
