If you like Burn... the whole album is kind of like that. It's nothing like Yeah.

I gotta say though that almost all of the leftovers from that album like Dot Com, Confessions Part 1 and Red Light are better than every song on the album.

I only like Usher's commercial songs (Yeah, U-Turn, Bad Girl etc.), I don't like his slow songs, but that's because I don't like Usher a lot.

What do you mean you dont like "corny"?  That shit is in the eye of the beholder.....me, i think YEAH is horribly corny, but i still felt it at first.

If you liked Usher's last album (an R&B classic) then you will be disappointed in this one........ya, the singles are great on this album (Yeah, COnfessions 2, Burn) but after that there isnt a lot of great songs.  Throwback produced by Just Blaze is actually one of the better songs on the album, a very tasteful track.  

People that never liked R&B before (Pino Gemini) likely were drawn to this album by the single with Luda and Lil John, and the rest of the album is nothing like that, at all

I liked Throw Back after a while, but I still think it's more of a rap beat than an R&B beat.

I actually never really bumped Yeah and enjoyed most of the other tracks on the album.  Throwback, Confessions 2, Burn, Superstar, Truth Hurts, Simple Things, Bad Girl & Take your Hand were all dope tracks IMO.  I thought this album was pretty good.
