It's a great album, but what's exactly refreshing about '4?' It's an R&B/Pop album. Nothing we have never heard before. 'Blackout' introduced a new sound and still sounds over a decade ahead of its time, if not more. Nobody was releasing that type of music at the time.

Even with the backlash,RTW was really different. So was the likes of Countdown,Start Over,1+1. And refreshing in the sense that it was something unique brought in by one of the major pop girl. I know it has the old R&B/Pop feel to it,but i thought that in itself is what helped it stand out like Blackout did in its time albeit different genre..
Who remembers 4 then, if you want to use your logic?
All the critics that gave it a 73 score on metacritic surely do.
You'd think Blackout would have had better reviews since it's the most influential album of the decade like her stans love to call it.
