Usher Raymond IV is an American R&B singer. He was born in Dallas, Texas, but raised in Chattanooga, Tennessee, until moving to Atlanta, Georgia. At the age of 12, his mother put him in local singing competitions before catching the attention of a music A&R from LaFace Records.
What happened to Usher’s father?
Usher’s dad, who is known as Usher Terry Raymond III led a fast life. He never established a relationship with his talented son and died at age 52 after a life-long addiction to crack. He was notorious in Chattanooga, where Usher spend the first part of his life, for being “one of the baddest guys.” From the look of the photos, Usher’s dad had a badda$$ pimp-style. The man was a deadbeat. He couldn’t ever kick his drug addiction, or be there for his child, but he looked good in a hustle kind of way.
Usher not only inherited his handsome face, but he also probably had swagger and silver-talkin’ in his bloodstream. The singer was born in Dallas, Texas, but raised in Chattanooga, Tennessee, until moving to Atlanta, Georgia. At the age of 12, his mother put him in local singing competitions before catching the attention of a music A&R from LaFace Records. He released his self-titled debut album Usher (1994) and rose to fame in the late 1990s with the release of his second album My Way (1997).
