“Not much is known about the upcoming music. But the “Climax” singer, who admitted that he’s “in the studio working right now” on the follow-up to his 2012 effort, “Looking 4 Myself,” has posted on Instagram several photos of himself throughout the year, including shots of himself in the studio with Pharrell and T.I.

“You guys have probably been following me on Instagram so you see my Afro and my six-pack,” he said. “So I’m getting out of Sugar Ray Leonard mode and into Usher Ray mode.”
