An unparalleled recording artist, an incredible performer, and a chart-topping hitmaker Usher is a world-class entertainer.
The singer has four kids and never misses an opportunity to gush about his children or talk about fatherhood.
While Usher does give them some level of privacy, there’s still plenty to learn about his crew.
So, without further ado, meet Usher’s four kids.
In 2023, Cinco turned 16 while his father was performing a residency in Las Vegas.
When Cinco was 6, he was diagnosed with punch in 1 diabetes.
In this condition, the pancreas makes little or no insulin."
“From the moment that key in 1 diabetes was a conversation, it was a re-acclimation to life.
The life that we knew changed,” Usher toldPeople.
Cinco’s health has also affected the relationship Usher has with his ex-wife Tameka Foster.
The two have had to be effective co-parents to ensure their son stays healthy.
Per the police report, Cinco got stuck in the pool’s drain after falling to the bottom.
This scare came just about a year after Usher’s stepson died after sustaining injuries from a boating accident.
“I feel like the kids are not getting proper care.
And I think the reason for that is he’s not there.
There is no amount of care that a caregiver, nanny, grandmother, aunt, anyone …
There’s nothing like a mother,” Foster said in an interview withABC News.
A judge denied Foster’s request, and their custody arrangement stood.
Tameka and the baby are doing fine," a representative for the family toldPeopleafter Naviyd’s birth.
Just before Naviyd’s birth, Usher expressed his joy for being a young father.
“I’m so proud to be a father by the time I’m 30.
I’d hate to be 80 years old and not be able to run with my kids.
I need to still be able to do flips when they’re in high school!”
the singer said, as reported byPeople.
The entertainer will bring his son to events, though.
Naviyd has also expressed some resentment about not being given the name Usher.
“You didn’t need it.
How many Naviyds do you know?”
Usher told his son (viaPeople).
“Not only does he watch my show, but he gives me critiques.
He’s like, ‘You missed this thing.
You didn’t do this.’
And I’m like, ‘Yeah that’s the point.
Naviyd has a history of delivering his unfiltered thoughts to his dad.
“[Naviyd] doesn’t care about what I do as much …
He’s like, ‘I’m the star.
… ‘You’re not a great singer,'” Usher said as reported byPage Six.
Usher doesn’t seem to mind the notes from Naviyd.
In fact, he welcomes it.
As he continued in his interview with Hall, “If it’s inspiration for him, then great.
And if it’s making him feel compelled to be creative, then great.”
While Naviyd is currently a teenager, a creative job may be in his future.
If so, as Usher revealed toExtra, he’d be supportive.
“I try my hardest to base my schedule around the time that they’re not in school.
After divorcing, Foster and Usher went through a very tenuous, public custody battle.
In the end, Usher was granted primary custody of the former couple’s sons.
“I really felt like we were friends.
Usher seemingly still has primary custody of Cinco and Naviyd as neither parent has ever publicly stated otherwise.
Usher and his ex-wife seem to be on good terms today.
“Happy Mother’s Day to these three incredible women in my life.
Thank you for the gifts you’ve given.
I appreciate you,” he wrote.
[Goicoechea’s] doing well.
Really anticipating it” (via"The Late Late Show with James Corden”).
“Hi my name is Sire Castrello Raymond …
I am the newest addition to the Raymond crew.
I was born Sept 29 2021 at 6:42pm weighing 7lbs 13oz.
Hear me roar … A.K.A Ra Ra,” Usher wrote onInstagramwhen his youngest, Sire, was born.
But when Sire was born, Usher made sure not to repeat his mistakes.
“Awh, man.
I came fully equipped.
I had my MoFi.
I had backup batteries.
I had a whole playlist that I worked on for about two weeks.
“I’ve actually moved [to Las Vegas].
For one year I’ve been here.
“My kids are not concerned about what I am doing in Vegas.
They got their own lives.
They either playing basketball, acting camp … my older kids.
And the four siblings do make a sweet group.
Usher loves being a dad
Usher has always loved being a father.
I want to be at every step.
And it matters more than anything,” he said.
One way Usher involves his children is by getting their creative feedback.
“But for my young’uns, Cinco and Naviyd, I’m taking notes.
They’ve been like taking conference calls with my entire team, giving notes,” he said.
If Usher’s kids share his predilection for performing, their notes were certainly worth listening to.
