Hot off his Super Bowl halftime show, the artist announced that he’s developing a show about “Black love in Atlanta and individuals looking to find a place to call home”
Usher has barely taken a breath since his Super Bowl halftime show and he’s already back to work.
The singer announced Wednesday that he will be developing a drama television series and has partnered with UCP, a division of Universal Studio Group, to produce the show. Variety reports that the show is about “Black love in Atlanta and individuals looking to find a place to call home,” and that it “will explore music, style, sex, romance and secrets that threaten to tear relationships apart.”
“My 30-year catalog has resonated with so many people no matter where they were in their lives,” Usher said. “I’m happy to be working with UCP to bring the music to life. I hope the series resonates with you the way my music continues to.”
Usher is also preparing to embark on a 24-city tour for a run he’s calling Past Present Future. But really, that’s just an opportunity for him to intersperse some of his most beloved songs with selections from his ninth album, Coming Home, which came out last week. Maybe he’ll even break out the roller blades, like he did for the halftime show, for the trek.
Rolling Stone praised the halftime performance calling it “a music highlight in a Super Bowl that had a few of them.” “The halftime show really took off with its most obvious and inevitable moment, ‘Yeah!’ — especially when Lil Jon emerged to yell the four most fateful words in crunk history: ‘Turn down for what!’” the publication wrote. “Lil Jon was a badly needed energy boost, with Ludacris also joining to turn ‘Yeah!’ into a roller-boogie skater-boi crunkfest from the windows to the walls.”
