About this episode

We all know Usher from classic albums like “Confessions” to his iconic stage shows—but have y’all been wondering what’s REALLY going on inside the man’s head? Well, he’s putting it all out there in a new Audible special called “The Last Showman,” where he gets real about his 30-year career, the making of “Confessions,” and everything in between. We’re getting into what inspired him to make the new special, sipping on some tea about how he accidentally caused some drama in Keke’s home life, and talking what it means to have everyone know everything about him. Then we’re getting into his biggest regrets, first kiss, and more in a game of “Confessions."
