Album Description
Available in:
The 20/20 Experience is the third studio album by American recording artist Justin Timberlake. It was released on March 15, 2013 by RCA Records. The 20/20 Experience is the first studio album to be released by Timberlake since his musical hiatus and move to RCA Records. As executive producer, Timberlake enlisted Timbaland, Jerome "J-Roc" Harmon and Rob Knox.
Two singles proceeded the albums including lead single, "Suit & Tie" on January 14, 2013 which was successful peaking within the top five in various countries and peaking at four on Billboard Hot 100. The second single "Mirrors" managed to peak at number one in the United Kingdom.
User Album Review
With his first new music in seven years, Justin Timberlake acts a suave frontman to a Whispers-inspired ensemble. When he asks, Jay-Z gets up from his seat. Timberlake prides himself on his ability to command an audience, and to damning expectations.
With his 2002 solo debut Justified, he broke away from 'N Sync and into mainstream RnB circles; on its follow-up, 2006’s FutureSex/LoveSounds, he channelled Prince as he "brought sexy back".
Third album The 20/20 Experience dazzles, but it also fails to take hold because Timberlake approached it like a big-budget film: a slew of special effects, but little else.
To its credit, 20/20 does provide an escape from our own, Harlem Shake-soundtracked reality. Lead producer Timbaland cues horns and clinking glasses to illustrate truffle-season opulence.
When Timberlake breaks from this glittering charmed life, he runs to 20/20's most exhilarating moments. Don't Hold the Wall is a dank, Bollywood-inspired corridor, while Tunnel Vision finds attempt to fixate on The One turning into a dizzy spell. He sustains his notes as if he's trying to steady his breath, but he keeps losing control.
Most songs are seven to eight minutes long, presumably because our hero falls in love and then indulges in lust. However, 20/20 often segues these prolonged outros, inspiring Timberlake to drive already extended metaphors to the ground.
When the sparkling Strawberry Bubblegum recedes into a 60s-style, keyboard-driven throwback, Timberlake adds that he's her blueberry lollipop. In Spaceship Coupe, after his voice has already creaked into falsetto come-hithers and the song has climaxed at an electric guitar solo, Timbaland launches female moans like wind-up toys.
With his return to music, Timberlake wanted to stir up anticipation with the feel of a major Hollywood release. Unfortunately, most of 20/20 falls into a rut; it sets the mood, but then fails to create tension.
When Timberlake released Mirrors, critics interpreted its eight-minute length as a sign of ambition. But in full context, 20/20's penultimate track reveals itself to be one of this album's simplest. It works, because it hinges on a stunning realisation: “I don't want to lose you now.” By then, it's too late.
