It is official Usher has re-hired his mother, Jonetta Patton after firing her over a year ago. She is back on board to kickstart the success of his latest album, “Here I Stand”. In the first week the album sales were 433,000 which was significantly less than “Confessions” which sold 1.1 million.
Usher and his mother issued a statement say, “Usher has dissolved his management arrangement with Benny Medina and has re-engaged Jonetta as his manager.”
Usher’s decision to get rid of Jonetta last year was reportedly due to tension between Jonetta and Usher’s wife Tameka Foster. However, executives at Usher’s label, Jive Records, were said to be concerned about Jonetta’s sacking.
Usher made the best decision by re-hiring his mother, maybe album sales will pick up for him.
