Usher performs on 'The Today Show'.

Usher had the honor of kicking off ‘The Today Show’ Summer Concert Series this morning and he did it in style. The crooner performed a pair of his hits for the crowd – ‘Climax’ and ‘O.M.G.’ – and gave them the best high notes and dance moves that he could muster.

The next step on Usher’s promotional campaign for his upcoming ‘Looking 4 Myself’ album campaign will be at the 2012 Billboard Music Awards on May 20th. All this activity is being used to genrate buzz for ‘Looking 4 Myself’, which will hit stores on June 12th.

Watch Usher on ‘The Today Show’ below:

‘Climax’

‘O.M.G.’

‘Without You’

Basically, each rendition showcased a different aspect of Usher’s artistry – ‘Climax’ depicted solid vocals whereas ‘O.M.G.’ was all about dancing. However, it would have been a wise decision for him to lip-sync ‘O.M.G.’, though, because he was sorely out of breath.
