Timberlake Brings "SexyBack"

Justin Timberlake: Click to WatchJustin's new song has hit the radios and held a press conference this morning in Paris to promote his upcoming album "FutureSex/LoveSounds."

So what the heck does that title mean? Timberlake was vague with his answer, "It is more of a broad album title but there is no real specific like 'you are going to have sex in the future to my songs,' there is no real meaning behind it." Of course, if the CD is anything like "Justified," there's bound to be a few people getting down to the music.

JT teams up again with Timbaland on the new album, hoping to recreate the success of their hit, "Cry Me a River." Of the hot producer he says, "I remember calling him on the phone and asking him if he thought we could do five or six 'Cry Me A Rivers.' It is a lofty challenge ... he doesn't back bow from that and that is something that I knew I would get from him."

The press was barred from asking the pop star about his relationship with "Charlie's Angel" Cameron Diaz, though the two were spotted together in France earlier in the week.

The video for "SexyBack" was shot in Barcelona and is expected to get its premiere within the next two weeks. The album is due out in September.

6. i like Justin but the song "SEXY BACK" is soooooooo bad dude..Sounds like K-Fed.

7. I use to like him until he let Janet Jackson take the fall for the "wardrobe malfunction". Now I think he's just a wimp! I'm no K- Fed fan, but I think he has bigger cajones than Justin.

8. Kara,
I can't believe that you would use K-fed and Justin Timberlake in the same sentence. Justin has proved time and time again to have REAL, raw talent. K-fed is just sucking the life out of Britney and I personally think that he'd be doing the world a favor by getting a vasectomy.

9. Justin is far more talented than K-Fed but I think he behaved like a weasel by not standing up for Janet Jackson. A 'Real" man would have not let her take the fall on her own. That's my problem with Justin.

15. Justin's new song is definitely a club hit. Even though he is not "singin" in it, it's still cool. When I talk to some people about the song, they are confused about why it doesn't sound like him. What most people fail to understand is that a song does not have to always have your typical singing it it. As long as the song is good and comes out to meet a specific expectation of the artist, it doesn't matter if he does not sound like he is singing. Music is art. Georgia O'Keefe and Picasso are not using the exact same typical technique. The same applies to music. Anything goes. I think Justin was just having fun in the studio, altering his voice to make sound almost robotic/monotonic. It's pretty freakin' sweet.
