Usher performs "Scream" on SNL

One month before his new album, Looking 4 Myself, hits shelves, Usher's promotional wagon kicked into high gear  when the entertainer provided America with a set of contrasting performances during this weekend's "Saturday Night Live" episode. 


Rocking simple black jeans, a jacket and tee, and a faux hawk, Ursh looked vibrant and energetic as he performed his brand-new single "Scream." Unlike previous expertly choreographed numbers for his dance tunes, the sunglass-donning singer showed off minimal, but nonetheless slick, moves, while his band and two backup singers filled his Studio 8 back stage.


In his second set the singer showed off his his sensual and smooth side making his falsetto voice the forefront of the number.  He cleared the stage of his background singers to perform his chart topping hit Climax.
