Usher Raymond, an American R&B singer, has mentioned that he is interested in collaborating with Afrobeats stars.

He stated that he worked with Nigerian Burna Boy and Pheelz on his current album because he wants to be a part of the Afrobeats movement.

Usher has joined the Afrobeats movement by collaborating with Nigerian artists Pheelz and Burna Boy on his latest album.

In a recent interview with Apple Music, Usher revealed that Pheelz had an impact on his collaboration with Burna Boy.

“I am all about collaboration and bringing African, you know, Nigerian culture to my own world. Their music is really popular now. I wanted to be part of it [Afrobeats], that’s why I went to Africa to make this album.

 

“I picked up things when I was in Ghana. I picked up things when I was in Nigeria. And working with Pheelz, he created the record [‘Homecoming’]. I just felt that Burna Boy would take it to a different level of credibility. I really do enjoy him as an artist. I just felt that this song would only be lifted better if he was part of it.”
