On his third studio effort (and fourth overall), 22-year-old R&B/pop star Usher Raymond makes the not-so-simple transition from post-teen heartthrob to love man. He does it with solid songs and a generous helping of charisma and vocal acumen, making this much-delayed collection a hot summer treat. Usher is aided in his musical efforts by renowned hit-makers like the Neptunes, Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis (who deliver soaring ballads like "Can U Help Me"), Jermaine Dupri, and new jack Edmund Clement who penned the irresistible single "U Remind Me." With catchy tracks and emotive vocals, Usher revs up his sex quotient and unleashes a winning blend of street-honed jams and passionate love songs. --Amy Linden

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - i like it
this has to be my favorite usher album next to confessions. the lyrics, beats and flow all work for me. he's very talented.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Usher - 8701
This was Usher's strongest album at its time of release. This album had alot of anticipation around it after the original 8701, All About U, got scrapped due to heavy bootlegging. So the attention was definetly on Usher, to see if this album would live up to the hype. And i have mixed feelings about this album. It is definetly a strong album, no doubt about it. With 8701, Usher finally found HIS sound. And that sound lies somewhere between R&B loverman, and dancing Pop star. While i personally like ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - One of the best R&B CD'S released in 2001
Usher went from teen idol to full fledged R&B lover with his 8701 CD. The CD which featured production from The Neptunes, Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis and JD still gets contasnt play from me. The Neptunes produced a lot of the up-tempo numbers on the CD including I Don't Know & U Don't Have To Call while Jam & Lewis handled the smooth ballads How Do I Say and Can U Help Me which is still one of Usher's strongest vocals ever. If you can find the imported version check out the beatuiful ballad ... Read More



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - "8701" = Good / "Confessions" = Better
Alright, my last review wasn't really that honest. Don't get me wrong...I've always respected Usher as a singer since the release of this album's single "U Remind Me", an infectious R&B/Pop gem with a simplistic beat which Usher's smooth, soulful vocals can easily groove over. Unfortunately, much of this album fails to deliver on Usher's full potential.

If this album were released in 2001, I'd be all over this album, ranting about Usher's immense talent and how he has everything an entertainer ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - kind of liked it
I have always liked Usher but it had to take awhile for me to like this CD. At first I wasn't feeling it but after I kept playing it, it actually grew on me. This isn't your typical R&B album. It seems more of a party/have a good time CD. And you can do just that especially with songs such as "I Don't Know", "If I Want to", "I Can't Let U Go", and "U-Turn". Of course they have the signature songs that Usher is known for-(U Remind Me, U Got it Bad, and U Don't Have to Call). U Got it Bad is one of my favorites. ... Read More
