简介
两座格莱美奖R&B天王最新劲碟，继英国金榜冠军专辑“8701”之后，亚瑟小子R&B风云再起，“CONFESSIONS”是他的第四张个人专辑， 亚瑟小子这次再度与Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis (Janet Jackson)以及Jermaine Dupri (Mariah Carey)合作，同时他也邀请到Beyonce碧昂丝与Jay-Z杰斯合唱的格莱美奖得奖名曲“Crazy in Love”的制作人Rich Hassison共同参与。 专辑中，亚瑟小子展现出他在演唱方面臻至的新境界及创作方面的成熟度。专辑中有许多歌曲是由亚瑟小子参与谱写的，专辑标题同名曲展示出这位才华洋溢的艺人为他的新作所注入的诚实情感；“Truth Hurts”由畅销曲超级制作组合Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis共同制作；而“Burn”这首优美的心碎情歌则再现亚瑟小子的招牌风格。首支主打单曲“Yeah!”与Ludacris路达克里斯以及Lil' Jon共同合唱，成为全美热门单曲，截至目前已蝉连Billboard单曲榜5周冠军及英国金榜冠军。 Confessions' most detracting factor is its length. At an hour in duration, it could be stripped of five songs and be far more powerful, especially since no one would have to do any wading to get to the meaty parts. On the other side of the coin, the smartest move Usher makes here is in allowing the Lil Jon-produced "Yeah!" to take its rightful place as the only club track; any attempt at doing something stylistically similar would've failed miserably in its presence. "Yeah!"'s crunk-meets-R&B foundation, featuring an instantly addictive eight-note keyboard vamp and one of Usher's most muscular turns, is so absorbing that Ludacris' 1500th guest verse floats by with little notice. The following "Throwback," produced by Just Blaze, sounds like it was made for the sole purpose of trailing Alicia Keys' "You Don't Know My Name." Like that hit, "Throwback"'s sensitively treated soul sample provides a nostalgic tint that complements the wistful, regret-filled tone of the lyrics. A small batch of Jam & Lewis productions, including the effortlessly gliding "Truth Hurts," continue to help raise Usher's loverman stock. Another pair -- the upbeat "Caught Up" and the aptly titled "Burn" -- also rate as some of the vocalist's best moments yet. He's been doing this for ten years now. Numerous chart hits have spun off each of his albums. Needless to say, the time is right for the phrase "just another" to be banned from use when discussing him.
