Usher setlist: All the songs on his innovative Past Present Future tour
View Date:2024-12-23 21:28:51
Usher is (finally) returning to the road.
Coming off of his 2024 Super Bowl halftime show in February, his Essence Festival show in July and 100 shows of a critically acclaimed Las Vegas residency, the singer kicked off his tour Aug. 20 Washington, D.C. after a neck injury forced him to reschedule the first three shows.
Embarking on the Past Present Future tour, his first in eight years, Usher is firing on all cylinders as he takes the stage for a two-hour extravaganza. Somehow even better at 45 than he was at 25, when his 2004 chart-topping, hit album "Confessions" dropped, the R&B legend runs through more hits than most fans realize he has and weaves in tracks from his latest album, "Coming Home."
"I'm promoting a legacy: past, present and future. I've been doing this long enough to celebrate the legacy of my music from the beginning of my career up until an incredible moment that I'm having," he tells USA TODAY ahead of the tour.

Cruising through each section of the show, Usher uses that tech to connect different eras of his career in a new way. He reimagines versions of his life, including an older Usher from 2044 who made different life decisions, and mimics a video call with younger iterations of himself talking and smiling back at him.
Usher oozes ease as he makes his way around the stage, bumping and grinding and crooning and seducing the mainly aunties and nieces in the audience. His quick changes produce silky, bejeweled look after look, replete with overcoats, larger-than-life sunglasses and slinky tops, all of which manage to find a way off of him to get to the core
The Usher: Past Present Future tour has more than 45 songs that span 30 years of music.
