原定2000年发行的Usher第三张个人专辑《All About U》，在发行之前就已经被盗版分子发布于网络之上，并且被无数歌迷广泛的下载，最终唱片公司不得不临时取消了这张唱片的发行，并且随后立即将专辑的录制人员以及Usher再次拉回了录音室，对专辑的歌曲重新进行混录，并且更换了一些新的单曲。2001年末，这张专辑被重新命名为《8701》并被发行。这张专辑再次让Usher走上了事业的新高峰，Usher的这张专辑在圣诞旺季创下了33万8千张的个人单周最好成绩，并且在Billboard 200排行榜上再次成为了排行榜的第四名，这张取得了空前巨大成功的专辑到目前为止的总销量已经突破了430万张，而其中的两首单曲更是为年轻的Usher取得了前所未有的荣誉——格莱美奖。这张专辑中的单曲《U Remind Me》为Usher赢得了2001年度第44届格莱美奖最佳R&B男歌手奖(Best Male R&B Vocal Performance)，一年之后，这张专辑中的另一首单曲《U Don't Have To Call》让Usher在2002年度第45届格莱美奖颁奖典礼上蝉联了最佳R&B男歌手奖。这张专辑取得的巨大成功，让Usher一举完成了从一名青少年偶像型歌星向成熟的R&B演唱者的转型。
