Ellen: “What surprised you most about this new little baby in your life right now?”
Usher: “What surprised me about him….that I had him…”
Ellen: “Really, that was a big surprise…”
Usher: “That was a big surprise (laughing). Actually everyday learning more and more about the beauty of fatherhood. As an African American to be there for my child is so important when their are so many young African American kids without their fathers. Everyday I’m charged with that responsibility so I’m doing this for a generation coming as well as the ones from the past. I just want him to grow up to be as wise, as smart as he possibly can be, be kind, open hearted.It’s changes everything about me. My approach of life…he is my reason for living — outside of my wife, obviously, for helping me have him.”
Ellen: “Yeah.”
Usher: “I couldn’t of done it without her.”
Ellen: “She did most of the work actually. … And, speaking of your wife, the press seems like they’ve been very hard on your marriage.”
Usher: “Some what. The opinion is that maybe this wife has come in and torn something down … she’s built it up even more now the foundation of who and what I am is even more. This stands for more what I want to see more of … I want to see more men standing with their women. I want to see more men be open and honest about where they are in life and that’s a lot of what I chose to talk about in my music not necessarily just about my relationship
