The 20/20 Experience by Justin Timberlake
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.
Justin Timberlake’s willingness to take his time creatively (relevant: his first decade as a solo artist yielded only two records) seems to directly shape the sonic opulence of <i>The 20/20 Experience</i>. Once again teaming up with Timbaland, JT presides over 10 maximal tracks that run fearlessly from symphonic neo-soul (“Pusher Love Girl”) to bustling eastern-tinged funk (“Let the Groove Get In”). Then there’s “Mirrors”. An unashamedly romantic 8-minute brew of elastic percussion and soaring guitar that caps a masterpiece of space, experimentation and cinematic scope.
