Prepare for the serenade of the year.
On Sept. 6-7 and 9-10, Usher will make Brooklyn’s Barclays Center his home when he performs four (!) ‘Past Present Future Tour’ concerts at the 19,000-seat venue.
And, while this short stint is just a small fraction of the inimitable showman’s busy schedule this year — there are 70+ gigs remaining on his tour calendar as of now — Usher doesn’t phone it in at live shows.
Based on our findings at Set List FM, the R&B icon performs upwards of 30 songs at all ‘Past Present Future Tour’ shows.
That includes cuts from his rapturously received 2024 album “Coming Home” as well as hits like “Caught Up,” “U Remind Me,” “Caught Up,” “Love In This Club,” and, of course, “Yeah.”
Plus, if videos from recent concerts on Instagram are any indication, there may even be some freaky NSFW crowd participation.

Usher new music
On Friday, Feb. 9, Usher dropped his ninth studio album “Coming Home.”
Comprised of 20 concert and radio-ready songs, the record is Usher’s first official release since 2016’s “Hard II Love.”
And, after eight years away from the studio, the consummate showman hasn’t lost a step.
The synthy title track “Coming Home” featuring Burna Boy is a smooth bop that sets the tone; after that, the nostalgic Billy Joel-sampling “A-Town Girl” featuring Latto has sing-a-long anthem written all over it, “Kissing Strangers” is the perfect ballad that never veers into treacly territory, and the gleefully goofy “BIG” rivals “Yeah” for the most fun tune in Usher’s back catalog. It’s a gas and a half.
Best of all though, is the slowed-down duet “Risk It All” with H.E.R. taken from “The Color Purple” soundtrack. As fun as Usher is, it’s nice to see him drop the fizzy synths and let his powerful vocals carry the weight of the music.
Make sure to give the desperate “Please U,” quivering “Margiela” and ebullient “Standing Next To You” remix a chance, too. All three are delicious slices of pop.
