Confessions has been certified Diamond by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) and, as of 2016, has sold over 10.3 million copies in the US and over 15 million copies worldwide. It was also exemplary of urban music's commercial peak and dominance of the Billboard charts in 2004. With over eight million copies sold in 2004, the album was viewed as a sign of recovering album sales in the US, following three years of decline. According to Billboard, it is the second-best selling album of the 2000s decade in the United States, behind Eminem's The Marshall Mathers LP. Confessions earned Usher several awards, including the Grammy Award for Best Contemporary R&B Album. To boost sales amid threats of bootlegging, the special edition for the album was issued, which includes the single, "My Boo" a duet with Alicia Keys.

Recording sessions for the album took place during 2003 to 2004, with its production handled by his longtime collaborator Jermaine Dupri, along with Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis and Lil Jon, among others.
