My Way (25th Anniversary Edition)

My Way is the second studio album by American singer Usher. It was released on September 16, 1997, by LaFace Records in North America. Serving as the follow-up to his self-titled debut album, which had spawned the modest single "Think of You" but failed to gain much commercial success, My Way underwent several creative iterations before fellow Atlanta native Jermaine Dupri assumed the role of primary and executive producer. This shift allowed Usher to take a more active role in the album' conception, while also collaborating with Babyface, Sprague "Doogie" Williams, and guest artists Monica and Lil' Kim. The album received generally positive reviews, with critics praising Usher's vocal performance and the overall production, though some highlighted inconsistency in quality, an overabundance of downtempo tracks, and uneven songwriting. Commercially, My Way marked Usher’s breakthrough into mainstream R&B: it debuted at number 15 on the US Billboard 200 with first-week sales of 66,000 copies and eventually peaked at number four.
