Biggest Albums of the Summer: Looking 4 Myself by Usher

Rolling Stone gave Usher 4 ½ stars for his newest album.

“If there's anyone in music who doesn't have an identity crisis, it's Usher Raymond,” the mag writes. “The theme here, such as it is, is his own versatility. Club rave-ups, hip-hop ballads, synth pop, blaxploitation funk, a Max Martin song, a Will.i.am jam that borrows from "Uptown Girl" – all here.”

Music ranges from the R&B ballad “Climax” to “Scream,” described by EW as a “straight-up strobe light banger.”
