Those 3 songs are great. Problem here is many here are only HERE for pop (same they have acted with Gaga´s last album just cause it wasn´t the pop music to be expected). But taking it for what it is and for what he is going for: it sounds like a very good album.
A different thing will be the sales. This will cost him some sales, especially worldwide. R&B doesn´t sell worldwide (and he has really been a force worldwide with his two first albums).

Talking about sales: Celine Dion has sold 500k of her French album in France ALONE since September. That album of hers in FRENCH has already sold more Barbra´s english one (and full of well known features to help) and definitely more than many young "current" artists supposedly topping the charts. A true bad bish after... how many... 30 years of career? :) :) :)
