UILabel * showtext = [[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(20, 20, 290, 30)];
showtext.text = @"Great Text";
[self.view addSubview:showtext];
Make sure your user.username.text gives you a string. It's mostly a good idea to define the place on the screen where you want your subview to appear. If you are using constraints fit your code accordingly.
