About this listen
Usher and Big Sean each dropped one million dollars on December 22 to launch the Detroit Entertainment Innovation Incubator, a cutting-edge program inside the Michigan Central Boys and Girls Club of Southeastern Michigan, Power 107.1 Macon reports. Set to open in February 2026, this incubator packs a virtual production studio, special effects lab, and creators lounge to train Detroit youth in filmmaking, AI, digital production, and music, backed by Ushers New Look Foundation, Big Seans Sean Anderson Foundation, Ilitch Sports and Entertainment, and Emory Universitys Goizueta Business School. Usher called it a spark to close the access gap for kids like him and Sean, who both grew up in Boys and Girls Clubs, while Sean said it proves Detroit dreamers dont need to leave home to build empires.
Earlier this month on December 13, Usher and his sons starred in Metas Carversations Instagram series, dishing on teen social media habits and sliding into DMs, Rolling Stone reveals. Hes also ambassador for Ralph Laurens bold Ralphs Club New York mens fragrance launch, reinterpreting Frank Sinatras New York New York in the campaign to draw younger crowds with luxe authenticity, IMDb notes from mid-July though buzz lingers.
On the legal front, Usher sued longtime pal Bryan Michael Stines over an unpaid loan for a restaurant that fizzled, but Stines insists their 27-year bond stays rock solid, AOL Entertainment confirms. A rumored new single We Aint Good with Summer Walker and 21 Savages floating online remains unverified with no major label backing or Usher social confirmation.
Usher spilled lifestyle gems in a Wallpaper interview, touting his Tuscan egg toast breakfast specialty, banana pudding legacy from age four, and Baccarat Harmonie Tumbler collab for hosting vibes, vinyl spins of Stevie Wonder and Luther Vandross, and game nights that wreck families over Spades. No fresh public appearances or social flares in the last few days, but this incubator move cements his biographical legacy as a youth empowerment force.
