Usher "Confessions Part II" - For Usher to come clean, it took a whole album. His 2004 release, Confessions, featured the hit single “Confessions Part II,” which found the star revealing to his lady that he had impregnated his girl on the side. As potentially depressing as the lyrics are, it’s hard not to nod your head to this one. If you're gonna confess, might as well do it on a No. 1 hit. (Photo: Courtesy of Arista Records)
