Howard University welcomes Usher’s son Cinco as freshman

Usher’s eldest son, Usher “Cinco” Raymond V, has graduated from high school and is set to attend Howard University as part of the Class of 2030. The R&B singer celebrated the milestone on social media, expressing pride in his son’s achievement.

Cinco, the son of Usher and Tameka Foster, participated in the university’s Freshman Pinning Ceremony to officially join the Howard community. His enrollment follows a growing trend of celebrity children choosing Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs), including the daughter of rapper 2 Chainz, who is also attending Howard to study criminology.
