The album is good but not THAT good. I'm a big fan of JT but am a little underwhelmed by the album ....production wise its fantastic but LYRICALLY leaves alot to be desired (' so thick they call it a fatty ' etc etc)

Miguels album was good but not consistant. Adorn is the best RNB song of the past 5 years hands down, 3 or 4 other nice tracks but the rest forgettable.

the new Robin Thicke song is dog shit and we all know it.

This means that most of you are mostly full of shit..you do realize that dont yall? I mean its been evident for years but yall just Toto pull the curtain on yourselves.

Very true.

I like Justin's CD.There are at least three or four songs that are great.It's just decent pop music.Can't see why it's being analyzed so deeply on this site

Because black folks here are mad at him.

Well that's my take on it anyways.

I simply don't get the "mad" vibe.

Looks like someone needs an appointment at Betty Ford Clinic.

lol Im just saying. Trust me Im shocked at myself for being a fan of this JT album but good music is good music.

I think folks are just jaded

It feels good to give it up to the punk ass bitch and not resist

integrity/black card/etc still intact

the whole album is great..not one bad song on there...and the good thing about it is its unapologetic about its rnb or disco roots rather....A+ album

whats wong with Mirro though? Its perfect pop

Nothing. It's just very typical of him.

What does black people have to do with liking or disliking the album?

Are you arguing black people can not like the album?

What is going on upstairs in that head?

eh

The album is hugely successful.

Who cares what we think?

Time will tell if all the drooling is worth it. It always does.

So was that last Sade release. I don't hear anyone talking about how good that mess is.......

I think its funny that posters say things over the internet that their punk asses would dare say in real life to someones face. Is it really that serious?

I think my opinion means something regardless if the album goes to number one or not. Thats not the point people are entitled to think what they want, period.

Right.

It's forgettable.

I'm gonna go further and mention Outkast's "Speakerbox/The Love Below", and I know I'll probably get blasted for it, but does anyone really care about the album, even after it was all people could talk about when it came out?

My point was racist or not, hating or not, biased against, won't look past blah blah blah or whatever other accusation is thrown in the mix, when all is said and done the market doesn't really care what we think of the album, it sold. The marketing, or his likeability factor or whatever, worked.

My point is we'll see the significance of it all after the dust settles. We should be used to it by now. There's always a lot of noise surrounding a Justin Timberlake release. Except this time it was deafening.

Racist portion was not directed towards you.

I understand all this in your post just saying that regardless whether an album is overhyped or not people are entitled to think what they want. People shouldnt have to be personally attacked or insulted for their opinion. Janelle Monaes album was not critically acclaim or marketed to the max but I think it was a stronger album and has more staying power.

heard 20/20 in a record store yesterday

I have to admit that it was really bad

3 tracks in a row and some were painful to hear
