“When I was asked to partner with Skims Mens, I was so humbled,” Usher shared. “Kim’s been a longtime friend of mine who’s always been so supportive of my work, so the opportunity to collaborate together on a campaign that supports both of our highly anticipated launches made total sense.”
“Launching this campaign ahead of multiple career milestones feels like a full circle moment,“ he concluded.
