REVIEW : Justin Timberlake - Futuresex/Lovesound - I don't dislike Justin Timberlake. His 'Kutch' skit on SNL was gold, and he doesn't seem to be a stuck up bitcc like most of his colleagues. His first album was good, i don't personally like his style(s) of music, but i'll admit it was a very good pop album. Timbaland and The Neptunes must be making a killing. They have every pop superstar convinced that if their album doesn't sound like it was produced by either of those afore-mentioned music mogals, that it's going to FAIL. Justin Timberlake, Britney Spears, even CHRIS MARTIN have all collaborated with them and the artists aren't being allowed to make their own music anymore. Futuresex sounds like a Timbaland album, not a Justin Timberlake album. Sexyback is a decent pop song, but it sounds so much like everything else that's raping the radio at the minute, that i can't stand it. The album is shallow, but that's to be expected, but you expect quality from someone with the resources JT has at his fingers and this is just crap. It's absoloutely CONSUMED with electronic beats and all that crap, if it's not you, don't go there ! I'm not saying Timbaland isn't brilliant at what he does, and i LOVE N*E*R*D, and it's fine when hip-hop artists and rap artists use these immensly talented individuals, but it's not pop music - and pop artists should start to recognize that and go back to doing what they do best. JT pull your finger out, this is piffle.4/10 - 1 for Sexyback and 3 for My Love, this album is terrible
