Usher Pulls Off Successful Benefit Concert Over The Weekend

Usher pulled off a real nice benefit concert over the weekend for the Hurricane Katrina and Rita victims. But you already know, when it comes to Usher you expect nothing less, he's arguably the greatest performer of our era. I mean ya' boy brought out the Godfather of Soul, James Brown, what more can you say. Alicia Keys also came through and represented big with Usher.

On the hip hop tip, Jeezy, T.I., Youngbloods, JD and Franchise all showed up doin' it big on stage. Big up.

T.I. was decent although I've seen him rock a show 10x harder than he did but he just needs some new material. I think people are just burned out on the Urban Legend joints. And the PSC CD, well I don't even count that. But overall the concert was straight, respect due Usher for representin' for the hurricane victims when many haven't (see Michael Jackson).
