With anticipation already high, our sexiest man of 2023, Usher took it up a notch with the release of this electric Apple Music Super Bowl Halftime Show trailer Usher: 30 Years in the Making. The minute clip gives a glimpse into the brilliance of Usher’s artistry throughout his three-decade career leading up to his Super Bowl performance on Feb. 11.

The trailer kicks off with a gospel rendition of his classic lyric “Peace up, A-Town down.” A choir transitions into a medley of fans delivering the iconic line around the world. Montage footage of Usher as a youth plays and it’s clear, he was born for this. The commercial adds to curiosity around the setlist. With so many hits and collaborations, what will Usher perform, and will he bring out any guest acts? By the looks of the commercial, we can count on “Yeah” being a major highlight of the show.
