| Justin Timberlake |
With the first installment of the comeback Justin Timberlake album, The 20/20 Experience (the second half comes out in November), coming out tomorrow, we can't help but satisfy our excitement for this new album by counting down some of the greatest JT songs out there!
10. "Summer Love"
The fourth single from Future Sex/Love Sounds is an attention grabber from the get go. Heavy slamming beats and a big booming chorus, it really burned a hole in our Summer of '06 playlist. It is the perfect song to blaring out your car speakers on a hot summer day.
9. "Suit & Tie (featuring Jay-Z)"
Timberlake's return single sent him back to the charts with this retro inspired hip hop groove. Brassy horns, a steady beat, and quick strings create a mood that is both classy and dancy. Plus Jay-Z lays down a smooth rap that compliments Timberlake's high falsetto. The result? A sweet, slick, sexy song that will be remembered as the song that took JT back to the charts.
8. "Senorita"
This smooth song hit number 5 on Billboard back when Justified was going strong. Influenced by Stevie Wonder, with the right combo of Latin infused beats, it's probably one of Timberlake's sexiest offerings to date.
7. "4 Minutes (featuring Justin Timberlake)"
Back in 08, Madonna released her album, Hard Candy. Never one to try to keep up with what was current, she and Justin Timberlake teamed up on the track, and "4 Minutes" became a smash. Big horns and a bouncing march beat made this song a hit on the dancefloor.
6. "My Love (featuring T.I.)
The second single from the massive Future Sex/Love Sounds, "My Love" earned itself a place at number one atop Billboard. And we can't imagine why not, the boasts a great beat, a catchy chorus, and of course a slick rap by T.I.
5. "Carry Out (featuring Justin Timberlake)"
Timbaland and Justin have quite the history. Together they came together for many successful songs, including "Sexy Back" and "4 Minutes". This slick dance groove is no exception, plus it helped keep Justin in the charts and on the radio despite his hiatus from music. .
4. "What Goes Around... Comes Around"
One of our personal favorites, "What Goes Around... Comes Around" is a more laid back song from "Future Sex...". With a slick chorus, and a smooth beat, this one will forever be a hit.
3. "Rock Your Body"
Who else could forget this classic? Written for Michael Jackson himself, the king of pop passed it up, and Timberlake got the hit. And boy did it become a hit. Groovy, with R&B styles mixed in with some beatboxing, this has become unanimous with Justin Timberlake's name.
2. "Sexy Back"
We still hear this on the radio. It's a classic that reminds us that Justin Timberlake is the king of the sexy, and (despite the fact that it was never really gone) he brought it back. This smash hit continues to be another signature song of his. With the infused beats, big synths, and catchy... well everything, it will be a dancefloor classic for years to come. So, "take it to the chorus!"
1. "Cry Me a River"
The song from Justified that became his most tender moment to date. It's a break up anthem that has been covered by artists from Taylor Swift to Justin Bieber. This slick song was about JT's relationship with Britney Spears, and was produced by Timbaland. It's a true to blue classic.
