Last evening, Justin Timberlake gifted fans with an opportunity to stream his latest album, The 20/20 Experience, on iTunes—for free and four days early.
Twitter nearly exploded, and Timberlake's upcoming effort proved to be what many of his listeners could have only hoped for: a matured artist whose growth over the years came to a head in his work. "Suit & Tie" was a mere glimpse into what's over an hour of 10 tracks with heavy, consistent Timbaland production that works cohesively with live instrumentation and R&B style that JT's put forth on this release.
This album is everything for those who've been on edge since 2006, when he last dropped new music, in the form of FutureSex/LoveSounds. His latest album is predicted to sell over 500,000 copies in its first week, which would land JT at the No. 1 spot on the Billboard 200 Chart.
