As you will have probably gathered by the plethora of blogs posting up new Usher tracks, yes his new album “Looking 4 Myself” has made its way to the Internet for all of us neckbeards to scrutinise. The tracks I was most looking forward to hearing from his seventh studio album were his collaborations with: Swedish House Mafia (which turned out to be a massive disappointment), Labrinth (which didn’t even make the final cut for the bonus edition), and finally the title track with Empire of The Sun.

Thankfully “Looking 4 Myself” isn’t a massive disappointment, which is due to the Australian duo stamping their unmistakeable trademark sound all over the production, as well as having songwriter Rico Love on hand to deliver the lyrics.

I haven’t had a chance yet to listen to the rest of the album, but I get the feeling that this will probably be one of the better efforts.
