I think it has the potential to be. Damn every single JT's put out has been good. You can definitely tell that he's been working hard on this album.
Thoughts?

It is definitely different than any he has ever done. The record had grown on me with each listen. I don't think it will have as many hits as his previous album. But it id a solid return back to music.

Loving it so far. Can't stop listening

Giving it my first listen now. Love what I've heard so far.

After listening to it I have to agree with NPR:
quote:
Timberlake has never been what you'd call a visionary, but on his last album, he showed a great sense of the pop refrain. This time, he's just plain timid. The songs have no edge, no zip — they're generic medium-tempo loops that last way too long, with a few clocking in at close to eight minutes. The length allows Timberlake to bring you your full daily requirement of mindless clichés. Track one: love as drug. Track four: love as sugary bubblegum. Track six: love as something that happens in a spaceship built for two.
There's a real art to lightweight feel-good pop. And for the most part, it's missing from Timberlake's latest. What we have, instead, is a celebrity feeling out his place in 2013, and you hear his worry. He's making calculations about the market, serving up a dim, cynical and decidedly limited vision of what pop music can be.

I don't care what any review says. Mirrors is a great track

Oh my, just speechless.

frick the haters, JT is the man

I think JT is awesome ... album wont be in the top 20 for the year

The songs probably won't be chart hits because they are too long and don't have enough hooks.
With that said, I think the album is great.

I'm digging it so far...especially Mirrors.

Of his three albums, 20/20 ranks third. Just not feeling this one. There are a few songs that are good, but most of the songs just aren't that good.

It's good but its pretty hard to follow his last outing.
There isn't a song from the last release that I didn't like.

Mirrors is a solid jam. I'm wearing that one out
Posted on 3/19/13 at 10:03 pm to LewDawg
I'm going with Mirrors too. I like how he explores the riffs and not falling for a cookie cutter approach to it. The beat boxing is dope as a backing beat at those certain parts.
8 minutes is a little long, but he almost makes it like two songs pushed together.

The damn hook is awesome IMO
Posted on 3/19/13 at 10:46 pm to LewDawg
Mirrors is a great jam, but I knock some points off for the use of an autotune-esque effect on his vocals. JT doesn't need it and it hurts the song.
Posted on 3/20/13 at 1:19 am to BottomlandBrew
Album is killer. Love that everyone is talking about Mirrors as if it isn't the most cookie cutter, N'Sync sounding track on the album. I like that track, but seriously it's the most overproduced album on the track.

Pusher Love Girl is the best on the album, imo. when he did that song on Late Night last week I lost my shite
