Usher recently sat down with Parlour Magazine where he talked about his upcoming album, his family life and his haters.

The R&B superstar will drop his new album "Here I Stand" on May 27. When asked how his fatherhood affected his music on the new album, he said, "This album, to me, is a staple in time. I like to make music about where I am, but I also try to make records that will be like soundtracks to life. So that people will be able to relate to them, maybe one day grow from them, learn, love from "em. This one particularly is more special than all of the others. I know it sounds cliché to say that! But honestly it's the pivotal moment for me as an artist, as well as a husband in a way, and a father. These are all new journeys for me, the most meaningful, because they're the most rewarding."

Usher went on to talk about his growth as an artist, "The knowledge that rests in the mistakes slowly but surely become wisdom, so that's really the process that I'm going through as a man. Where I stand as a husband, as a father, as an individual, as a businessman, is all a testimony to what I've been through and where I've been."

"Love In This Club" is the position that I was in about two years ago and as a result of having that record, there's a series of events that will happen," the entertainer said on how "Love Tn The Club" fits into this new growth.

Furthermore Usher addressed some words at his haters, "For all you haters, sorry we back on top. [Laughs] For those of you that doubted it for a minute I'm really sorry for you, but this is definitely going to be a reward for those who've been waiting, rooting and supporting and I'm not gonna let you down. I promise."

Usher´s highly anticipated album "Here I Stand" hits shelves May 27th.
