Usher, FKA Twigs and Sheila E. honored the music of Prince — a musician who opposed being put in artistic boxes— as a feature of a three-tune tribute to the symbol at the Sunday night 2020 Grammy Awards. The presentation united the Prince teammates, companions and specialists he enlivened for a progression of scaled down, electric interpretations of his hits.

The 2020 Grammy Awards went crazy for Usher's Prince tribute! The singer delivered a killer medley of the late icon's biggest hits, from "Little Red Corvette" to "When Doves Cry" and more. Usher belted impressive falsetto during songs like "Kiss," and also proved he could do Prince's moves justice while strutting his stuff alongside FKA Twigs in a stylish ensemble that reflected the legend's signature fashion.

As a singing, moving and instrumental trio their presentation reflected the legend's intense style and particular half breed sounds, with Usher driving the tribute with an interpretation of "Little Red Corvette." He at that point segued into "When Doves Cry" and was gotten in front of an audience together with FKA Twigs, who made her passage spinning on a survey in a white-feathered gathering. The two rotated into a sultry move arrangement to "Kiss," and as Prince's well known hover showed up in purple out of sight, Usher was supported by a whole phase of risks for a short intermission before FKA came back to his side.

if somebody would have told me that when i started pole dancing just under two years ago that i would be performing on a prime time television award show flying in the air, i wouldn’t have believed them. the pole community is a beautiful and accommodating circle of expressive athletes. we embrace everybody from all walks of life who find expression in this form of movement. i am truly proud to be a part of it and in my own small way i always hope to shed some light on this form of movement. it’s changed my life and has brought me much joy and many friends. thank you for all of your encouragement and supporting me in finding my wings x

At the same time Sheila E. driven the sponsorship band in front of an audience on the console. Usher has been associated with a few Prince tributes since the music symbol died in April 2016, including exhibitions at Coachella and the Roots Picnic. In spite of the fact that FKA Twigs didn't perform, she was named "the new Prince" by Elle magazine in 2016 and performed with the legend at Paisley Park in 2014, among different gatherings between them. In the mean time, "The Glamorous Life" vocalist and percussionist Sheila E. started working with Prince in the late 1970s and teamed up with him all through his profession.

Following his passing, Sheila E. driven the 2016 BET Awards tribute to Prince. In the time of his passing, Prince sold a larger number of records than some other craftsman, with more than 100 million over his whole 40-year vocation. The musician, maker and multi-instrumentalist left his blemish on the outlines every decade with singles like "Little Red Corvette" and "Kiss," just as collections 1999 and Sign O' the Times. His solitary sound, which consolidated components of funk, rock, R&B, pop and jazz, brought about 10 platinum collections and 19 top 10 sections on the Billboard Hot 100 — five of which came to No. 1. In any case, it would be his most elevated selling album,1984's Purple Rain, which served as the soundtrack to his ill humored, rock melodic show of a similar name, that collected Prince an Oscar in the best unique score classification.
