Hey folks, He already did Madonna - He "Re-invented" himself from being the "next" Michael Jackson to the "next" Prince.

Actually, It doesn't bother me that he immulated Michael or Prince. I would like to like Justin and I actually really like SexyBack, I JUST DON'T LIKE HIM AS A PERSON. I just think he's a presumptuous, punk-ass user. He was Michaels' friend and wanted to be like him until Mike got into trouble. He was Janets' friend until the black-titty incident. Then had the nerve to induct the O'Jays into the Rock N' Roll Hall Of fame, which totally pissed off Eddie Levert (the lead singer of the O'Jays) because he wanted to look like he was down with some old-school R&B guys. Now he wants to be like Prince. I'm waiting to hear the story of Justin stepping to Prince at an awards show or a party, and Prince just walking away without saying anything like he did to that other punk, Fred Durst.

Who is Fred Durst?

I'm guessing you guys must have saw tha sex tape?? LOL

Anyone know why the song POSE (w/ Snoop) wasn't on Justin's new CD. It was on the torrent but not the new CD.

That was one of my fave tracks (reminds me of Lady Cab Driver)

funny how LCD doesn't remind you of anything.....

really? (rolling on my backing, laughing and kicking my heels in the air with unadulturated glee) REALLY!!!! HAHAHAHAHA!!!! JOY SLOOTHS AND SLIDES THROUGH MY VEINS!!! pleasepleaseplease god, please let his career be over.

Rhondab said:

so true. I'm sick and tired of hearing one song and being able to sing the original song over it. Like on Beyonce's new album she totally rips micheal jackson's "can't help it." on one of her songs.

on another note. even if sexy was gone, how would this fool bring it back? you can't bring back something you didn't ever have in the first place.

No Misty, don't you remember a few years ago it was "Justin Timberlake - the next MARVIN GAYE."

Yesterday there was an interview with Justin in one of the biggest newspapers in Poland in which he claims Prince is one of his greatest influences and his dream collaboration. In the article Justin name-checks "Lovesexy" as the most groundbreaking pop album ever

Karrine Steffans would second that. Anyone ever read the infamous 'confessions of a video vixen'? She gave him a lot of praise, but I wouldn't put it past her that he paid her to write that about him. She was/is a money hungry ho who told all the sexcapades of celebrities she wasn't cool with anymore, and withheld those she's still friends with who used her up just the same. If you didn't read the book WARNING! Don't waste your time unless you like to read about sex, gossip, and things like the National Enquirer. It has no valuable content if that's what you look for. IMO she's freakin

And Fred Durst is nasty looking too. Who the f would want to brag about doing anything with him.

My sister read that Prince was asked how he felt about people comparing Justin Timberlake to him... his repsonse?? "Sexy never left" .. oh what a man love you P

New York Magazine printed my letter to the editor:

http://newyorkmetro.com/n...ers/21680/

Prince Timberlake
Ben Williams’s reviews and analysis of the new Justin Timberlake and OutKast albums [“The Men Who Would Be Prince,” September 18] are spot-on, particularly regarding Prince’s influence on both these artists. Yet Mr. Williams forgets to mention that Timberlake’s song “Until the End of Time” not only “borrows” Prince’s signature Linn drum-machine sound but also has its title lifted directly from of one of Prince’s most lyrically beautiful songs, the ballad “Adore,” from the 1987 album Sign ‘o’ the Times, which opens with that phrase and is also part of the chorus.

There is a clear dif. between being influenced and ripping off an entire style.
P and Michael J. should file P.D. reports for theft against Justin for his last two CD's.

cool!

ThreadCula said:

I disagree.If you watch BET Uncut and listen to some hip hop tracks, you will see that sexy has been replaced by raunchy and vulgar.Sexy is classy,raunchy is gutter.Prince in his prime was sexy and provocative without having to use lyrics like"til the sweat drips from my balls".Can U relate?

GaryMF said:

ITA!! I heard that song and I was like this lil foo done stole Prince's beat and had the nerve to name the song "Until The End Of Time" !! Someone on here said it was from "The Beautiful Ones"

if Prince ever play w/ this kid, that's gotta be the worst move for prince's career...

give timberlake a year or so, he'll be appearing on "where are they now" on VH1

ratt said:

It'll take longer than a year. Being famous requires little more than being famous. That, plus the facts that 1) Justin is getting so-so reviews for his blue-eyed Minneapolis sound, and 2) he's dating Cameron Diaz and will be in the next Shrek, mean that he's going to be around for another 2-3 year cycle.

Ha, now I will wait until my husband comes home to show him the article. I've been telling him that since JT made that clip with the dumb Britney clone. That is an important reason why he is succesfull. Especially the high voice he uses sometimes (which I like BTW). When sexyback came out I didn't know it was JT and when I said it was influenced by Prince my husband laughed "yeah right, you hear Prince everywhere". But now I have the prove!!

I saw that new video, and I turned it in about 30 seconds. Not because I don't like JT. Because he's hovering close to the line of ripoffery. The cadence and falsetto make it too obvious. It's not like "Rock Your Body" which had an Off The Wall vibe but sounded enough like JT to make it enjoyable on its own merits. That turned me off of getting it.

Timberlake admits to being "influenced" by Prince, but how does that "influencing" manifest it's self? Timberlake does not write his own songs, like Prince always has. He cannot dance, like Prince very much did. Timberlake is not sexy, like Prince was. Timberlake is not original, like Prince was. Timberlake is just a marketing creation plucked from the suburbs of Pleasantville, USA. He kinda looks like Eddie Haskell. Give me a break.
