Everything he touches turns to gold. Artists old and new sought after him to propel them to an almost guaranteed life of superstardom. The boy who once blew us away as the lead singer of teeny-bopper sensation *NSYNC has grown into the Solo man we now lust over. He is of course, Justin Timberlake.
From his early days back in the Mickey Mouse Club, Timberlake has since grown up under the media’s eye. He has amazingly managed to avoid controversy and has greatly been acknowledged as one of the revolutionizing musicians of our time. His latest album FutureSex/LoveSounds that stormed into ‘07 on the strength of Timbaland’s mud-sopped funk, brutal bass and clean synths and Timberlake’s suburban-rebel charm can attest to that. “My Love,” “LoveStoned” and “Summer Love” rocked every iPod, stereo player and stadium. Even a centipede would not be able to count the amount of awards Timberlake has previously won.
Just when you think he’s done enough damage, Timberlake gets right back on and has released “4 Minutes,” another killer combo with Madonna and Timbaland on board.
With Justin Timberlake, you know he will always be there to bring “SexyBack” and it is going to be a long time before we see the last of him.
