Usher Raymond V and his dad musician Usher are pictured on the over of Essence Magazine, August 2008 issue. This is what he had to say about his experiences as a dad:
On being a father [Usher] says, “He’s gonna admire me, he’s gonna look up to me. He’s gonna say, ‘I wanna be’ or he should say – ‘I wanna be like my father.”
When asked about his marriage to Tameka, Usher responds, “They think that it was forced. I’ve heard a lot of comments like, “Oh, she trapped him.” “He got a baby by her, and then she’s married and she’s set for life.No. She wasn’t pregnant when I asked her to marry me. There’s some sort of huge conspiracy over this, the fact that I made these choices in my life. No I grew older. As a man, I have to take responsibility and take a hold of my life. I’m accountable for what happens to my life now.”

adorable baby, looks exactly like his daddy.
O he is so adorable. Looking like a little miniature Usher sitting over there.
I JUST WANT ONE SPERM….LOL. Our child would be so adorable;)
What a cutie pie!!! although daddy is infested with herpes
First everybody needs to stop those comments about the ears if you look close the baby’s ear canal pops inner and usher’s is outer. The baby has ears just like ryan.
That kid looks nothing like usher. But he looks like ryan and his kids. I wonder why? Compare ushers baby picture to this kid nothing. It will come to the light.
awwww… he is so cute…looks just like his fine ass daddy…lol
Is Usher his biological dad?
he looks like usher 2 me…he just has a fat face. he is cute lol.
please that kid looks nothing like usher or tameka but he looks like her ex how did that happen.
Who said that the baby is supposed to look exactly like the father? Everyone acts as if the mother’s genes have absolutely nothing to do with it. Not everyone looks exactly like one of their parents. People are so ignorant!!!

I must say, the baby looks jus like Usher. They are soo………. adorable!!! He’s happy with his family and that’s all that matters.
if he doesn’t look like usher or tameka well who does he look like. in my opinion i don’t think he’s usher’s. but how weird he looks like ryan. you know the old saying mamas baby papas maybe.
The baby is cute he has his father ears. I agree he don’t look nothing like Usher, but that don’t mean hes not the father. The baby doesn’t have to look like him.
NOW I TAKE OFFENSE TO YOU KOALA BECAUSE I AM A “STRAIGHT MAN”AND I DONT THINK THE BABY RESEMBLES USHER ..DOES THAT MAKE ME BITTER ?OR WISHING I WAS IN TAMEKAS SHOES ?GIMMIE A BREAK!!I HAVE MONEY AND A WONDERFUL LADY ..WHAT I DONT UNDERSTAND IS WHY ARE YOU PEOPLE GETTING BENT OUT OF SHAPE BECAUSE PEOPLE DONT AGREE WITH YOU ?WHAT ARE YOU NOW THE BIG PUBLIC DEFENDER OF DIFFRENT OPINIONS ?LOL ..ITS CALLED FREEDOM OF SPEECH
Cranberry, you are exactly right. I usually don’t post on Usher- related items because, as you can see, most of these vapid posters are mean-spirited.Their ignorance reigns supreme. They act as though they were there at the conception and delivery of Usher’s baby. Further, I think many of the women are bitter and see themselves in Usher’s wife Tameka. The difference- and what infuriates them- is that they don’t have a man like Usher at home. It’s just them and their kids at home.
apparently trina WHEN “cranberry” WROTE THAT ,THEY made it his or her business as well to even type in their STUPID comments ..the NERVE of some people !dont take it personal CRANBERRY because the baby looks like her ex.AND NOT USHER .it aint your BABY so why are you so bothered?
MR/MS CRANBERRY EVERY1 IS ENTITLED TO THEIR OPINION SO WHO ARE YOU TO SAY PEOPLE ARE TALKIN NONSENSE BECAUSE THEY ARE VOICING THEIRS?AND IT DOESNT EXACTLY AGREE WITH YOURS ?THATS JUST FLAT OUT IGNORANCE IN ITSELF ,CELEBRITIES KNOW THAT COMES ALONG WITH THE TURF ,THEY KNOW THE PEOPLE THAT BOUGHT THEIR ALBUMS AND KEEP THE MANSIONS PAID ,FOOD ON THEIR TABLE AND MAKE IT POSSIBLE FOR THENM TO DRIVE AROUND IN THEIR $300 THOUSAND BENTLYS ,CAN SAY WHAT THEY FEEL THATS WHY ITS CALLED MEDIA ,AND THATS WHY EVERYONE IS ENTITLED TO SAY WHAT THEY FEEL ABOUT THE PICS .SO YOU RESPECT THAT!
that baby is almost 7 months and he doesnot look like usher. He looks like ryan he’s not ushers.
It pains me when black people talk nonsense..
#1 – The child is lighter because black children are born a couple of shades lighter than their real complexion – then they get darker. YES!!
I have known of 1 person that was born as dark as he is today.
#2 – The boy looks like Usher. And let’s say by chance, which I doubt, he isn’t Usher’s – where did it become your business??
If Usher thinks it’s his, then it is.. Why are people so bothered?
Usher made his choice to marry Tameka and have a baby. Respect his choice. There are for every 10 black women with kids, 5 dead beat missing dads, why are y’all so worried about Usher who is taking responsibility.
The baby looks like Usher, especially on the cover.

lol, so the mother has nothing to do with the way the baby look?? Have you looked at her nose? Her eyes? Maybe that is why the child looks like his half brothers? “If that baby was ushers he wouldnt look like … ryans kids.”
I have to agree that baby looks
nothing like Usher. The point is he looks like ryan and his kids. How the hell did that happen. Usher needs to wake up. If that baby was ushers he wouldn’t look like ryan or ryans kids.
Ok u have a point. Where can I find a pic of the first daddy. Hey this is a page for comments and everybody can have one. I’m sorry for the harsh words EVERYBODY!!!
I agree with Trina that baby doesnot look like Usher. I think the baby is ryans. Why else does he look like ryan and his kids. He doesnt look like usher or tameka so who does he look like. I agree 100% with trina. Ryan is the father.
Actually, I watched the video behind the scenes of the cover and the baby actually looks like Usher’s mother. I think it is his.

I’m sticking with with what i said that baby DOESNOT look like usher. I don’t see it. I still say the baby is ryan’s.
If u take out the skin completion where does Usher and that baby look alike? The nose…..the lips……the eyes where I DO NOT see it?
That child looks nothing like him. Are you guys serious???
Sarah I wondering the same thing on the other blog it’s full of people calling him dumb and saying that baby doesn’t look like him. The baby looks just like Usher. Good Luck to Usher and Tamika on raising those 4 handsome boys!!
Where are all the people who said the baby doesn’t look like usher. What do you have to say now?
HE IS ADORABLE….. AND USHER IS TOO SEXY
Little Usher is so cute. Look at his little hat. Do your thing, Usher.
He’s Gorgeous!!! ….and so is the baby!
