    Most of the successive leaks and singles continued the trend, and King of Hearts, in turn, is clearly the singer's best album yet.

    It all works: the urge, the sass, the sleaze masked with the pitiable presentation.

    King of Hearts, his fourth studio album, is strictly for the grown and sexy. It may not be a new school classic (it's not) but this is a damn good album.

    [It] treads a fine line between charming and cringe-worthy.
