Usher Reveals He, JAY-Z, Diddy & Pharrell Were Almost A Supergroup

Usherย has revealed that he almost formed a supergroup withย JAY-Z,ย Diddyย andย Pharrell.

During an interview with Shannon Sharpe on the former NFL starโ€™s Club Shay Shay podcast, the singer told a story about the ultimate Hip Hop-R&B hybrid that never was.

Usher said he, Hov, Puffy and Skateboard P went as far as discussing the business side of things, but the idea never panned out as they all got โ€œdistracted.โ€

JAY-Z, Pharrell, Diddy and me were supposed to be a group,โ€ he said. โ€œYeah, thatโ€™s crazy. I didnโ€™t say โ€˜No.โ€™ I didnโ€™t say โ€˜Yeah.โ€™ I think that we just got caught up. I think we all got caught up in the moment.

โ€œWe was talking about it and having secret meetings about it. We were talking about music and how we gonโ€™ flip it and the business of it. And somehow, man, we just got distracted and it never happened.โ€

He added: โ€œThatโ€™s the one I actually wish would have happened.โ€
