Justified Double Vinyl

JUSTIFIED won the 2004 Grammy Award for Best Pop Vocal Album. The album was also nominated for Album of the Year. 34Cry Me a River34 won for Best Male Pop Vocal Performance. JUSTIFIED may represent Justin Timberlake039s attempt to break out of the boy band mold and be taken seriously as a musician, but N Sync and, more specifically, exbeau Britney Spears continue to serve as red flag reminders of these specific times. Ballads like 34Never Again34 and 34Nothin039 Else34 bear the markings of classic breakup songs but, far from licking his wounds throughout the rest of this debut, Timberlake includes a number of cuts that celebrate being single including the Timbalandproduced cut 34Right for Me34 and equally the thumping 34Rock Your Body.34 Other names this teen idol nabbed in a quest for credibility are redhot producers the Neptunes and P. Diddy. in keeping an RampB element as the touchstone for this debut, Timberlake dishes out a number of surprisingly stellar songs including the very mellow, Stevie Wonderflavored 34Nothin039 Else,34 Latinsoaked 34Senorita,34 and infectious 34Like I Love You.34 in delivering such a mature record, Justin Timberlake has created a springboard to bigger and better future projects.
