JC and Justin

I just don't get why Justin is so famous, is it because he was Britneys boyfriend or because he had funny hair, I mean in N Sync he sounded like a sheep and now he's trying to be Prince and Michael. JC on the other hand is a talented singer and has a better album and on 'she got me' he does a very convincing Michael impression, without trying to hard to be Michael. JC also takes musical risks which most male artists don't. I just can't understand why Jive would not support him.

yes, i think the reason justin became more popular is because he dated britney. if you think back to the late 90's jc was actually more of the leader of the group and then when justin and britney started dating things shifted and justin started getting more attention. jc imo is more talented and fine as hell!!

Oh, how I love JC. Can't wait for his next album to come out...hopefully sometime before I die lol JC is more the Prince to Justin's MJ IMO. I don't mean that by saying that either of them compare to Prince or MJ, I mean that as in MJ was the more commercially accepted artist, while Prince was not as commercially accepted but the bigger risk taker of the two. JC could have played it safe on "Schizophrenic", but he didn't and his album was very different from Justin's. I like Justin too, but JC is the more true musician in my eyes. Love "Build My World" music

I was never a big fan of either, though JC definitely has the musical strength behind him, rather than relying on cheesy-ass beatboxing and pale imitations of el Princo and Mikey. Why Chasez didn't get bigger than Timberlake and not the other way around baffles me.

On the other hand, had JC been the shining star post-*N SYNC, there might not've been an opportunity for hell to freeze over: He's been working on several co-writing projects with BSB's AJ. eek

Record labels should be fighting to sign up someone like JC. He seems very self reliant as a singer-songwriter.

JC has always been the most talented member of 'N sync . He has a great voice. It's too bad that his album was slept on.
