Reflecting on the moment, Usher admitted he regrets not reaching out and asking the Purple Rain hitmaker if he was willing to collaborate during his lifetime. "This moment was really a celebration. I wish we had more time. I would of figured out a way to have gotten to do a record with Prince.”. "He's the one person that I always wanted to work with, that I never got a chance to do a song with. And the journey continues...". Prince, real name Prince Rogers Nelson, died at the age of 57 in 2016.

The hip-hop icon has served as the NFL's live music entertainment strategist since 2019. "I found out that I was gonna be the Super Bowl Halftime Show by Jay-Z. He asked me, 'Are you ready for the major moment?' I'm like, 'What you talking about, brother?'”. “He's like, 'Are you ready for your Michael (Jackson) moment?' I was like, 'The Super Bowl? Hell, yeah.'". Usher's Super Bowl Halftime Show featured guest appearances by Alicia Keys, Lil Jon, Ludacris, will.i.am, and H.E.R.
