In the latest issue of Entertainment Weekly where Justin Timberlake is promoting the new movie The Social Network, he seems to become annoyed when the writer asks him about putting out new music. Check out the excerpt below.
EW: Are there people you work with who are telling you that you should put another record out sooner rather than later?
Timberlake: …Does a painter make a painting because he has to make it by December 21st? No, he doesn’t. It happens when it pours out of him. That’s how music is for me….
Do you think it’s dangerous to wait so long? Christina Aguilera waited four years between albums, and her fans don’t seem to care about her right now.
If you’re asking me, no. I never stop making music. I don’t know what else to tell you, except that I just don’t know [in] what capacity I want to be involved anymore.
That sounds very final.
Timberlake: No. All I’m saying is, in very simple terms, I’ll know when I know. And until I know, I don’t know.
Alrighty Then!

quote of the day: “I’ll know when I know. And until I know, I don’t know.”
Word. That’s probably a lyric in a future song, too.
Timberlake is killin’ it right now in other avenues. No need to be killing himself in the studio, killing himself doing shows, etc…when he can make even more money quicker doing big movies & endorsements.
People will forever check for Timberlake’s music, including myself.
lol @ that dumb reporter trying to put him on the same page as Christina Aguilera. People haven’t given a shit about her in many years. Timberlake has always remained relevant & made an EXTREMELY successful transition from teeny bop shit to grown folks music. Not many can say that.
Shit, let me in the door see what I do wit it.
pssst* earth to Justin..
NOBODY cares dude..USHER is back!!..give him another year to cool off then maybe then ppl would notice you again Justin.
Please USHER SUCKS!… and I don’t mean dick.
hahaha ok
Da fukk???? NOBODY is checking for Usher!!!!! RvR didn’t do shit, which is why he’s singing pop now!
ah dude, RvR is selling….isnt it !!?!?
I can’t stand interviewers who don’t comprehend English.
He said he still makes music but does it when he is feeling it and furthermore doesn’t know when he is releasing any.
Timberlake wudnt be anywhere near as successfull as he is now if it wern’t for the Neptunes making him hot on his first album.
All those tracks were made for Michael Jackson aswell, if only they had gone to him he may have had one last great album out before he passed…
he is pulling a SADE…make the music when you feel like it.
It doesn’t matter how he got hot, the point is he still is and he made pretty good music. Can’t take that away from him. By the by, he was in this little known group called Nsync before he went solo.
noooo, he has to make one, its just wrong to not share such talent with people. i for one cannot wait for his new thing. but if he needs time for it then oh well what can we do about it.
Wow at the reporter throwing Christina under the bus just to make a point, idot. People do care about Christina, all of those shitty azz gaga comparisons along with no top10 hit did a disservice to her. She’ll be good. People haven’t cared about her in yrs. yet her cd before Bionic’s sold 4.5 million ww and almost 2 million in the states. How dumb do u sound.
Also Bionic’ did debut at #1 in other countries around the world, and it debuted at #3 here, so she’s still a huge artist. Things just did’nt go her way this time around, as of yet.
wow, my girl did her thing, I didnt know bionic sold so much. I do believe the industry isnt backing her like they used to. And its a shame because she has a great voice
imma need Justin to understand one thang… BOY YOU CANT ACT WORTH A DAM!! like seriously dude, dont quit your day job, if it werent for your music persona would people be quick to cast you in these movies? you were pitiful in alpha dog or whatever that shit was called and now that this facebook movie is gettin a lil buzz u gettin your shine on? boy stop. just like bey bey aint gonna win no dam oscars no time soon, neither are you! and if this movie gets an oscar nod is gonna be for either the lead dude, that jewish kid or the 1 guy who plays the twins, mark my words.
What he is saying is that his bread is straight and he will put out and album when he has the perfect music for it. Why come out with an album that is shitty? A lot of artist need to do the same instead of pushing out hot singles and an a shitty album.
^^
i.e. Usher
Onthereal….. STOP IT!
lol
oh dear Justin Timberlake…… NO Please Dont Stop Making Music I LOVE LOVE your music and its agreed that making music does “pour” out instead of forced matter of fact im listening to your song Right now…. and have been for the past week….. i caint wait to see what comes next…….. =] =)
