7‘No Shit, Sherlock’ Of The Day: Justin Timberlake Has Taken Plenty of Drugs

In a turn of events that will surprise exactly no one, Justin Timberlake has admitted that he’s done plenty of drugs in his day. Hilariously, most of the “substances” he’s taken have all been at Coachella, where he tripped balls in the middle of open fields while Weezer played on stage. Weezer! LOL, I can’t with you, Justin.

From MySpace:

I’ve been to Coachella many times, on many different, um, substances. I’ve been to Coachella many times but not remembered a lot of it, I’ll leave it at that. But I remember I used to go to Coachella a long time ago. I remember Coachella when there wasn’t like, paparazzi and stuff there. Like, I stood in an open field and one year I saw Nine Inch Nails and the next year I saw Weezer and I was standing in the middle of the field, you know, like tripping my mind out.

Oh, the good old days of Coachella… or something. This isn’t too much of a story considering, like I said, that no one will be surprised about this. More important – has anyone else tried out the new MySpace since Justin bought it out? I tried out the beta version and admittedly didn’t “get it” right away, but it looks really slick and modern, so A+ for aesthetics.

5Justin Timberlake Dedicates the ‘Mirrors’ Video to His Grandparents

If you love old people, flashbacks to their happier, younger years, young people in grey wings and spandex dancing provocatively and Justin Timberlake in a wool pea coat, then you’re in luck! His new video for ‘Mirrors’ is out and, being dedicated to his grandparents, spends the majority of its eight minute runtime moving back and forth between the past and present of an older couple’s relationship as they reflect on the many years of their relationship. Hurrah! Then, once the breakdown comes, Justin himself turns up in front of some funhouse mirrors and a girl with a grey wig, stockings and not much else starts twirling and gyrating all ’round. Well, okay!

‘Mirrors’ is one of the only radio-friendly tracks on Justin’s new album, The 20/20 Experience (which is still really good, after repeated listens) and the video is slightly bizarre and off-brand, if I may, but the song is good and grandparents are sweeties, so I’ll go with it.

1Justin Timberlake “Absolutely Loves” Kanye West, Which Means He Hates Him

Never has a music feud been so goddamn boring as when Kanye West and Justin Timberlake started being at odds. Now now, lads, there’s enough of Jay-Z‘s friendship to go around. After Kanye told a crowd in London earlier this month that he “ain’t f-ckin’ with that ‘Suit & Tie’,” JT responded by changing the lyrics in the song during his performance on SNL last weekend to something about rappers being dramatic because his “hit’s so sick”. I mean, whatever and all, but I just yawned while typing that entire paragraph.

After taking his shot at Kanye, JT decided he couldn’t put his money where his mouth was and decided to backpedal during an appearance on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon when he was asked about the performance, saying, “I don’t remember that. Did I change a line? It is live. You know really, everyone keep calm. Let me say, for the record. I absolutely love Kanye, so there’s that. We love Kanye right? Did the lyrics change? I don’t remember.”

Ugh, this bitch. Playing the amnesia card is the corniest thing ever. I don’t even understand what’s got him shook, at this point. After all, what’s Kanye going to do, beat you with his crocodile skin scarf or whatever the hell it is he wears? These two need to just stop.

3Justin Timberlake Is Streaming ‘The 20/20 Experience’ and It’s Really Good

Justin Timberlake‘s new album, The 20/20 Experience, isn’t due out until next Tuesday (March 19), but oh, what the hell, it’s 2013 and it was going to leak anyway. Therefore, Mr. Suit & Tie himself has decided to stream the album in full on iTunes. The tracks aren’t separated so you don’t really know what you’re listening to, but that sorta doesn’t matter because holy shit, it’s really good. That’s coming from someone who would never describe herself as a JT fan or anything but knows really good R’n'B when she hears it, so take that as you will.

At about 70 minutes long, it’s certainly an “experience”, as he hoped, and it’s full of more cohesive, smoother tracks than it is with big club bangers – in fact, after a full listen, I think there’s only one or two that I can imagine people getting hype about, and even that’s a stretch. Still, it kind of doesn’t matter. For this album, Justin has settled down a bit into his sound and seems comfortable sort of exploring the intricacies of the tracks instead of attacking them. Do I sound like I should write for Pitchfork? I’m a professional music critic, you know. (I’m really not, nor do I want to be.)

Check out The 20/20 Experience on iTunes here and let us know what you think in the comments!

11Justin Timberlake Disses Kanye On SNL

Kanye West let the world know that he isn’t a fan of Justin Timberlake‘s Suit & Tie collaboration with Jay-Z. It looks like Mr. Timberlake hit back with a subtle and smooth jab at dear Mr. West.

The Huffington Post (and many others) pointed out that during Mr. Timberlake’s performance of Suit & Tie last night on Saturday Night Live, he changed the line “Shit so sick got a hit and picked up a habit” to “My hit’s so sick got rappers acting dramatic.”

Nice job, Justin! A very classy dig. In terms of music though, I still prefer Kanye. Yeah, I went there. It’s Sunday, I don’t care.

Watch it:

And then picture Kanye’s reaction, which was probably something like this:

4Justin Timberlake Dropped a New Track After the Grammys

Justin Timberlake gave a pretty solid performance at the Grammys last night, but that’s not all. After the festivities were done, he dropped another track from his upcoming comeback album, The 20/20 Experience, for the thirsty ass females who have been desperate for new JT music since he starred in The Social Network and decided to concentrate on his “acting”.

I’m not sure if ‘Mirror’ is better, worse or on the same level as ‘Suit & Tie’, but have a listen below:
