If you were well-versed with American pop culture in early 2000, you’d remember the blonde and blue-eyed heartthrob of N’Sync. Justin Timberlake was lucky in having a successful career, in a boy band, as a solo artist, and even as an actor. After a long 6-year hiatus from music, 32 year-old Justin says “I’m ready”, and is making a very exciting sexy comeback in 2013 with his latest album, The 20/20 Experience.
The 20/20 Experience is Justin’s third solo album, and the first single taken off his new album, Suit & Tie (also featuring Jay-Z) was well-received by fans! For the past six years, Justin was focused on acting and business ventures, including a clothing line, and even a partnership with MySpace where it is set to relaunch as an artist-centric service with co-owners and media tycoons, Chris and Tim Vanderhook. He also married long-time girlfriend, Jessica Biel.
According to unconfirmed sources, The 20/20 Experience, set to be released sometime in March, may even feature the help of long time collaborator, Timbaland, and the mega power-couple, Jay-Z and Beyonce!

In a recent video message, Justin said “It [music] means more to me than anyone else in the world. I’ve only done two albums in ten years that’s the way I look at it. What does the next decade hold for me? As close as I get to it, I don’t know that I could physically torture myself that much year in, year out. I don’t want to put anything out that isn’t something I love. You just don’t get that everyday, you have to wait for it”.
Subsequent to the release of his single, and announcement of his new album, Justin is taking the state at the Grammy Awards in February 10, for the first time in four years! Not only that, but the singer and actor is also heading to the UK to perform at the BRIT Awards in March. “Justin’s team have been plotting his return carefully. He loves the UK and wants to announce his comeback with a top set”, sources cited.
2013 is set to be a big year for Justin. Apart from his anticipated comeback at the Grammy’s and the BRIT Awards, the release of his album, Justin is also linked to various acting projects, including a role in a film by the Coen Brothers, Inside Llewyn Davis.
