Dear Justin Timberlake: A Seven Minute Song is Not a Single

[The_King_of_Everything]

I got that part but why not just say it? What's the point of blaming the length of the track into why you don't like it? Shorten it to 4 minutes and does that change a thing? I'm sure there's a radio edit just like there was for mirrors, so I'm not understanding the criticism here? Lol at this inconveniencing her listening experience.

I mean I'm a little biased because I personally can't stand JT anymore but what I'm thinking that she's stressing is that he's just overdoing it and trying to overcompensate because his music is "lazy"?


2 singles
Dropping an album top of the year
Grammys
Tour
New single
MTV awards
Jimmy Fallon week
New single
2nd album

It is a bit much so I see where she's coming from I just think she's poor at articulating herself.

fukk a Miley Season. #JTSeason

Don't forget his movie October 4th ..Naw dude is just getting it in. Nothing wrong with it to me. I don't mind the criticisms of his music sounding the same. He definitely kept the same sound from Futuresex/LoveSounds, but it's a winning formula. I wouldn't change it either.

@ kids in here comparing queen and led zeppelin to justin fukkin timberlake..

What's the difference? One of the comments stated the problem with Justin Timberlake is he thinks his music is of the same quality. Lol is that even a valid criticism? While I don't agree, if I'm putting together an album of course I'm going to liken it or believe it's better than the greats. But we don't even have that information into his thought process. 100 percent conjecture and projection

justin timberlak is a pop artist.. that makes radio songs.. the article is basically sayin stay in your lane.. and by makin these songs extra long doesnt make you "artistic".

perfect example of trying to hard

 

[Primordial]

Track sounds familiar......

I mean her angle is completely poor. One of the comments said the same thing. Has she never heard of Bohemian Rhapsody? No one ever complains about the length of that track and while it is definitely better executed than what JT has done with TKO speak on the lack of quality and not the length. Just poorly written. Oh and it's amazing what's happened to rock music I'm sure these new kids wouldn't even entertain Achilles Last Stand or When the Music's Over.

Just think James Brown's A Big Payback is 7 minutes and 39 seconds or Mayfield's Diamond in the Back 7 minutes and 13 seconds. If you are skipping out on that you

Bohemian rhapsody to THIS????

Hell, its the same beat for 5 minutes AND THEN it goes through some corny bridge and breakdown afterwards.

And that's by far the stupidest argument on this planet. The last album had similar lengths of tracks. You implied it here.

i agree with th article..JT tryin to hard to recreate "lovestoned" "what goes around" whcih were both 7+mins.. the length of those songs worked becuase they organically came together

feels like now hes just makin long ass songs for the fukk of it

State you don't have a problem with the length. It's the execution which I agree with that Lovestoned to me is one of his better tracks.

That's the thing, she makes her point about how long songs shouldn't be singles (she literally says this in the article) rather than that the song itself is just way too long. It's a big difference.

I mean if you are going to post an article at least make sure you comprehend it. And they are quoting me like I'm the one who's wrong
