4, also known as Foreigner 4, is the fourth album by American rock band Foreigner, released in 1981. Several singles from the album were successful, including "Urgent", "Waiting for a Girl Like You" and "Juke Box Hero".

The album marked the completion of the band's shift to hard rock, begun in Head Games. Half of the original lineup - Ian McDonald, Al Greenwood, and Ed Gagliardi - had left before the recording of 4. As a result, all of the songs on the album are compositions by Mick Jones and/or Lou Gramm. McDonald and Greenwood had played saxophone and keyboards, respectively, and so several session musicians were needed to replace their contributions, among them Junior Walker, whose sax solo in the bridge of "Urgent" is a high point of the album, and a young Thomas Dolby, who would later have a successful solo career.

All songs written by Lou Gramm and Mick Jones, except where noted.
