People with ADD should not write articles.

The single is dope, btw.

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

He's making radio songs, yet most of his singles clock in at 5 minutes and over. That's not the mark of someone that's making records for radio play.

Personally, I don't really care as long as the song's good.

"Twice the length of a typical pop-track", as if my nikkas is a typical pop-artist :childplease:
He doesn't give two fukks about catering to pop fans, they adapt to his shyt.

He is tho. what does he do that differentiates himself from other nikkas in his lane other than having every cosign for w/e reason and the timbo factory behind him. And this is coming from someone who fukks with some of his stuff. but people acting he's some avant garde rnb visionary is hilarious.

I really believe you guys are deifying this guy. Lol he isn't avant garde at all. He's very straight forward with his music and video concepts. Visually he makes them work. Avant Garde would be someone like "The Weeknd"..He's a pop/r&b artist. One of the best out. Really that simple.

I actually really like the song.
I could do without the beatboxing near the ending though.

The length of the song isn't a problem for me.

Well that he is. There really isn't anyone out here making the music he is. Miguel is in his own lane(a great one), so is Robin Thicke, Bruno Mars is dope but his discography is still in works. Usher is ost somewhere in an Atlanta court. JT got the juice breh :manny:
