Will Usher have more #1s from his album?

[Carlitoz]

I haven't bought the album and I doubt I will, but I have to say that the 4 singles haven't been bad at all.  I've enjoyed them, even though I don't like Usher himself much.  Is there potential in his album to expect 2 or 3 more #1 singles?

Just noticed a typo in my subject. :( Could any moderator change the ! for 1? :)

no more #1s!

[allow that]

I think he'll have another Hot 100 top 10 or two, but no more #1's til the next album. "Caught Up," the next single, will already be passed it peak in some key markets before it's officially released.

No.

You shouldn't expect any more #1s after the first four singles.

Hmm...I think he might. Especially since "Caught Up" is the next single. But his label needs to get it out now, because it's been getting spins just as an album track for a while on urban stations, and people might start to tire of it...if they do so, I say "Caught Up" holds the top.

In a normal scenario I shouldn't expect more #1s after the fourth single, but I think Usher's case is already out of the norm this year. We haven't seen 4 consecutive #1 singles in a while. What if he does what Janet did years ago? I know the charts have changed, but you never know what Usher can do in today's charts with the help of pop and r&b radio. I haven't heard his album, but now I wouldn't be surprised if he pulls at least one more #1 single.

Janet had 7 top 10s from Rhythm Nation. Im sure he will probably tie with that, the bad thing is that Janets album lasted probably 2 years or more the way an album is suposed to last. Her singles were not back to back to back. His album hasnt been out 6 months and I lost count on which single # he is on. He is really shortening his time. When u are this large there is no where to go but to the bottom. his next album will have alot of anticipation but will probably be a let down on all accounts. I dont think he has anything left that is good enough to hit #1 anyway.

I actually don't mind Usher being at #1 al the time. It prevents far worse songs like "Sunshine" from getting there!

the quality material simply isn't there, he wouldn't've gotten a 4th #1 with alicia as it is. but yeah, he could get some more top 10s, he could release a single that was him farting on the mic and radio would play it enough to go top 10.

I still don't think so. There's nothing much left on his album.

Of course, there was nothing much there to begin with, either.
