LONDON - Usher's had a turbulent few months, but now he's back where he belongs - on stage.
On Saturday, the R&B singer kicks off the iTunes Festival in London, a month's worth of free shows at the Roundhouse.
Over the summer, Usher coped with the death of his stepson and a custody battle over his two sons, which he won.
He took time out to deal with these challenges, all while his fans were desperate for him to perform again.
