"Justin Timberlake's Nostalgic Return: Reckoning with Pop's Most Embarrassing Man"
TL;DR Summary
Justin Timberlake's new album "Everything I Thought It Was" is a mix of nostalgic future funk and poorly timed nostalgia, serving as a reminder of his past successes but lacking the impact of his previous records. The album reflects on love and his relationship with wife Jessica Biel, but also faces criticism for its derivative nature and the context of Timberlake's public perception, including his role in the "Free Britney Spears" movement and the 2004 Super Bowl halftime show controversy.
