Usher and the Sunglasses Squad [band name citation needed] have tackled Foster the People’s monster single Pumped Up Kicks while performing a gig on BBC Radio 1. Despite the crowd’s unbridled enthusiasm, especially the crossed armed girl at 1:48 possibly standing next to the mum, the cover is actually pretty entertaining, with some sweet harmonies and Usher slappin’ a little bass.
In other loosely affiliated Usher news to fill some space: Usher protege Justin Bieber recently walked head first into a glass window during a performance in Paris.
When retelling the event to TMZ Bieber said, “It really hurt, and I felt a little light headed, but my adrenaline I feel pushed me through it, but then after that I felt really weak, and I was walking down the stairs and I passed out for like 15 seconds and I was unresponsive, I finally opened my eyes and saw the Doctor, who told me I had a concussion.”
