Usher has made a decent number of top 10 lists; I am surprised because his reviews were good, but not great. Perhaps people think he should be on lists b/c of popularity?? I don't know.

I Doubt Popularity Plays a Role In Usher's Decent Showings...

otherwise other big commercial successes would be cited. He does have that good combo of mass appeal and good reviews. While he's not exactly cutting-edge or anything, he's done pretty good work (well, aside from his mega turn-off vocal turn-off in that If I Ain't Got You duet version. There was no need to turn that grand track into a duet. *shudders*)
