Sweet Dreams

While the baby sleeps, Usher thinks on how fatherhood made him complete.

“The moment I heard my child’s voice, I broke down and cried because at that moment, I was not only 100 percent responsible, but now fulfilled,” he said. “Like I have fulfilled my responsibilities in life.”

Dance With My Father

Though Usher’s father was not in his life, he has no doubts he will be the best dad he can be to his children.

“So what is the one thing that I would want my child to know if I could just tap him on his head? That I’m here. That I love him, and he matters more than anything. And I ain’t going nowhere,” he says.
