Usher Claims Jay-Z, Pharrell, Diddy and Himself Were Supposed to Be a Group
On Thursday (Feb. 1), Usher sat for an interview with Shannon Sharpe on his Club Shay Shay podcast. The R&B singer was asked if there had ever been any collaborations he regrettably turned down throughout his career. Usher smiled as one came to mind.
“Yeah, you gonna hate me for this one,” Usher said around the 51-minute mark below. “Jay-Z, Pharrell, Diddy and me were supposed to be a group. Yeah, that’s crazy. Yeah, you gonna hate me for that.”
Usher went on to say he approved of the idea at first, but that scheduling conflicts ultimately got in the way.
“I think that we just got caught up,” Usher explained. “I think we all got caught up in a moment. We was talking about it and having secret meetings about it. We were talking about music and how we gon’ flip it and the business of it. And somehow, man, we just got distracted and it never happened. That’s the one that I actually wish would have happened.”
Usher then said he also regretted turning down a role in the 2006 movie adaptation of Dreamgirls, which starred Beyoncé, Jennifer Hudson, Eddie Murphy and Jamie Foxx.
