The Best Usher ‘Watch This’ NPR Tiny Desk Memes

NPR Music celebrated Black Music Month with an array of brand new Tiny Desk concerts. Usher did an NPR Tiny Desk performance that premiered on June 30. It was a fantastic performance with several of his hit songs including: “You Make Me Wanna…” and “Confessions Part II”. The performance was complete with a horn section, rhythm section and backup vocals!

Since the premiere, the internet started making memes from a part in the performance when Usher looked straight at the camera with peace signs and said “watch this”. Drake gets a break at people meme-ing him this week LOL!

Here are some of our favorites:
