The discography of Usher, an American R&B singer and actor, consists of six studio albums, one live album, eight compilations, one extended play, and 30 singles. His music has been released on LaFace, Arista and Jive record label. Usher has shipped 22.5 million albums in the US[1] and a combined 65 million records worldwide.[2] He has attained nine Hot 100 number-one hits (all as a lead artist) and sixteen Hot 100 top-ten hits.[3] In this discography, music videos are included as well.

In 1994, Usher released his self-titled debut album in North America. It produced three singles that attained moderate chart success, and the album sold over 269,000 copies.[4] His follow-up album, My Way, achieved international success selling seven million copies worldwide,[5] becoming his break-through album. It was certified six-times platinum,[6] and produced three successful singles, including his first US number-one hit "Nice and Slow". His success continued in 2001 with his third studio album, 8701; it debuted at number-four on the Billboard 200.[7] The album extended his portfolio of number-one hits, with platinum selling singles "U Remind Me" and "U Got It Bad". The album sold over 4.7 million copies in the US,[8] and received a four-times platinum certification from the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA).[6] It exceeded its predecessors' worldwide success, selling eight million copies.[9]

Usher's success was bolstered with the release of his fourth studio album, Confessions. It was his first US number-one album, selling 1.1 million copies in its first week which is the highest first week sales for an R&B artist in history.[10] It spawned a record breaking four consecutive Billboard Hot 100 number-one hits—"Yeah!", "Burn", "Confessions Part II", and "My Boo". Each single accumulated to a total of 28 weeks on top, making Usher the first act to have achieved such an extended chart run on the Hot 100. The albums' first two singles ("Yeah!" and "Burn") replaced each other at top on the Billboard Hot 100,[11] stayed at the top for a combined total of 20 weeks[11] and became the best-selling singles of 2004.[11] With the commercial success the album garnered, it received a diamond certification from the RIAA,[6] and sold over 20 million copies worldwide.[5] It was ranked as the top solo album and second most successful album of the 2000 decade.[12]

After a four year absence, Usher's highly anticipated fifth studio album, Here I Stand was released in 2008, and debuted at number-one on the Billboard 200.[13] The album contained more mature, adult-oriented themes which lead to it achieving less success with sales compared to his previous efforts, selling 1.5 million copies in the US[14] Its lead single "Love in This Club" peaked at number-one on the Hot 100, marking Usher's eighth number-one hit in the US. Follow-up singles did not receive the same success as the latter song did with "Love in This Club Part II" becoming a top-20 hit, while the singles "Trading Places" and "Moving Mountains" failed to reach the top-40. Here I Stand has been certified platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA).[6]

In 2010, Usher released Raymond v. Raymond, and it became his third consecutive number-one album.[15] Its three US singles, "Hey Daddy (Daddy's Home)", "Lil Freak" and "There Goes My Baby", performed well on the Billboard Hot 100, peaking in the top 25, 40 and 25 respectively. The album's two international singles, "OMG" and "More", achieved worldwide success, with the latter topping the Canadian Hot 100 and "OMG" topping the Hot 100, becoming Usher's ninth US number-one hit. Raymond v. Raymond was certified platinum by the RIAA,[6] and sold 1.2 million copies in the US.[16] During the same year, Usher released a follow-up set entitled Versus; it debuted at number four on the Billboard 200,[17] becoming his sixth top-ten album.[18] The EP's lead single, "DJ Got Us Fallin' in Love" was an international success, reaching the top ten in several countries, while the second single "Hot Tottie" became a top-thirty hit on the Billboard Hot 100.
