JT is back. The former N’Sync member and award-winning actor has just announced the official title for his anticipated third studio album and it will have a little R&B (maybe even a lot) thrown in the mix.
Led by the single “Suit & Tie,” which features Jay-Z, Timberlake’s new album is titled “The 20/20 Experience.”
All of that said, what is Justin’s forthcoming album going to be like? What should we expect?
For one thing, Justin has teamed up with Beyonce and she believes they will help to bring R&B back together. Their collaboration on “End of Time” proves they can do a little something…
“I’ve been working with Pharrell and Timbaland and Justin Timberlake and [The] Dream. We all started in the ’90s, when R&B was the most important genre, and we all kind of want that back: the feeling that music gave us,” Beyonce told GQ last week. “Mostly R&B. I always have my Prince and rock/soul influences. There’s a bit of D’Angelo, some ’60s doo-wop. And Aretha and Diana Ross.”
While Beyonce was pretty straight forward there, Justin is enjoying the craft of teasing us music fans here and there. Just last night, he released an open letter detail how this album came about and confirmed that it will be out later this year.
