Nearly five years after the release of his last album, The 20/20 Experience, Justin Timberlake is set to return with another full-length studio effort called Man of the Woods. With the single "Filthy" already in heavy rotation, both on radio and as part of many popular streaming playlists, across the country, Timberlake is poised to have another smash hit on his hands. The singer/songwriter recently shared another brief glimpse at his new music in a behind-the-scenes video.
During the clip, JT describes this upcoming LP as "modern Americana with 808s," a statement is probably true of a decent portion of his discography. Mixed in with the "talking head" interview portion with the Tennessee native, there are some slices of studio work sessions edited into the video as well, showcasing Tmbaland and Pharrell getting their hands dirty with Timberlake behind the board. You can check out all of the footage below.
The process of recording Man of the Woods seems like it was a richly organic, hands-on process, with different producers and musicians working closely with Timberlake to give voice to his singular musical vision. It's not enough that he's one of the foremost entertainers of the 21 century - JT is bent on being a trendsetter in the industry and taking his sound in places his fans have never gone before. Listening to the entire thing, front to back, is sure to be an exhilarating experience.
