I had no idea Usher had sold so many albums. According to Wikipedia’s discography on Usher, he’s sold over 43 million albums. That’s a lot. Given he earned a royalty (approximately $1.20) on every sale, that’s a lot of money.
In order to come up with the very specific design ideas, we create most designs with the assistance of state-of-the-art AI interior design software.
Of course these days, album sales aren’t like they used to be. Now music is streamed on Spotify and Apple Music (we use Spotify and love it). Artists still earn from streaming services, but it’s a different model than the longstanding album sales model. While streaming has hurt artists’ overall revenue, the plus side is that concert tickets sell for way more than they did 20 years ago. A-list musicians can easily sell millions of concert tickets for over $100 each. Some sell for way more than $100.
43 million albums sold times $1.20 royalty equals $51,600,000 put into Usher’s pockets (before taxes). That affords a great house. Here it is, although he’s selling it.
Perched on a hill in the infamous Hollywood Hills burb of Los Angeles, this 4,261 sq. ft. pad is listed by Usher for $4.2 million. As you can see, it’s close to all the action directly behind famed hotel Chateau Marmont.
The interior defies its exterior in that the interior is eccentric in many ways. It has a dark and bright contrast color scheme in many rooms. The exception is the updated kitchen which is beautiful. Not that the rest of the house isn’t beautiful. It’s different. I like it, especially the white and dark living room with green furniture. That’s a really cool room.
The property isn’t huge, but there are many outdoor sitting areas and even includes a small pool. The outdoor sitting areas (patios and decks) are very private which is a huge plus for an A-list singer like Usher. I actually like private, nook-style decks and patios. Check out the entire house below.
