This album is by far the best and catchiest out of Usher's other albums. I, personally, really admire the fact that he's written about his own personal experiences because it takes a lot of guts to let people into your personal life like this. There's some really catchy dance-like songs, great chill out tracks, and one or two ballads. I'm quite a big fan of ballads, so for me the only thing that's missing is maybe a couple more ballads, but this doesn't detract from the overall quality of the album. There's also a slight comedy element to this album (from my perspective) because a number of songs are written about sex; one in particular ('That's what it's made for') is really obvious, so not one to play in front of parents or young children (trust me, in the case of children it raises far too many questions!) For me, one of Usher's talents in his writing is that his songs also appeal to people who wouldn't normally go for r 'n' b type music (like me).
