Guest The Winter Of My Discontent Posted August 31, 2003 Report Posted August 31, 2003 Everyone hates him, I don't, so why should I?
Red Hot Thumbtack In The Eye Posted August 31, 2003 Report Posted August 31, 2003 You shouldn't. I don't enjoy his particular musical style but he is very very talented. From what I've heard of his stuff, the beats sound a little samey, or Michael Jacksonish. If you enjoy his talents as a singer and dancer, and enjoy the music, why worry about people who hate it.
Lil' Bitch Posted August 31, 2003 Report Posted August 31, 2003 Most of the hate originates from Justin having been the leader of the notorious Backstreet Boy wannabes group, NSYNC. That and that fro he used to have...
Edwin MacPhisto Posted August 31, 2003 Report Posted August 31, 2003 Well, the first half of "Senorita" isn't nearly as fun as the ridiculous call-and-response that ends it. And I'm sure there a few lame love ballads somewhere on the album. That's about all I've got. I love the singles.
razazteca Posted August 31, 2003 Report Posted August 31, 2003 White boy thinks he is black and is not as good as Eminem at it..........know what I'm sayin' B?
iamsherm Posted August 31, 2003 Report Posted August 31, 2003 White boy thinks he is black I love this argument. As if Justin is supposed to conform to some sort of warped view of how white people and black people are supposed to act. If that's his biggest fault, I think he's doing just fine.
Guest Random Hero Posted August 31, 2003 Report Posted August 31, 2003 He nailed Britney and you didn't.
The Czech Republic Posted August 31, 2003 Report Posted August 31, 2003 Justin Timberlake is a poor imitation of Michael Jackson. R2DFooster McSockman is reading this thread.
NoCalMike Posted September 1, 2003 Report Posted September 1, 2003 No reason to hate HIM, I suppose. However his music is a lame, lighter ripoff of Michael Jackson. His dance moves are taught to him, and his music is collaborated by someone else. So he is JUST THE FACE behind everything you hear on a cd/radio. That should be reason enough not to want to make him a rich person.
rising up out of the back seat-nuh Posted September 1, 2003 Report Posted September 1, 2003 Does anyone know if there's truth to the rumour that The Neptunes wrote a load of tracks for Michael Jackson, but after falling out with him, gave them to Justin (inc. Rock Your Body and Like I Love You)?
kkktookmybabyaway Posted September 1, 2003 Report Posted September 1, 2003 Justin's just trying to be the next Michael Jackson. All he needs to do is darken his skin up a bit -- and have some sleepovers with the neighborhood kids...
Black Lushus Posted September 1, 2003 Report Posted September 1, 2003 Most of the hate originates from Justin having been the leader of the notorious Backstreet Boy wannabes group, NSYNC. That and that fro he used to have... Backstreet Boys sound better together vocally, NSync has better songs...if that makes sense...okay let's put it this way, if Backstreet sang NSyncs' songs it would sound better than NSync...by the way I'm not afraid to admit I dig some of the songs those groups have come out with and "Rock Your Body" by Justin owns...
Guest Flyboy Posted September 1, 2003 Report Posted September 1, 2003 You shouldn't hate Timberlake. Justified is a fun album to throw on at times, and "Senorita" is blazin'.
Lil' Bitch Posted September 1, 2003 Report Posted September 1, 2003 "Rock Your Body" by Justin owns... I have to agree.
Black Lushus Posted September 1, 2003 Report Posted September 1, 2003 except the beat box parts, i must add...i'm still not sold on white boys beat boxing...white rappers, yes, white beat boxers, not yet...
PLAGIARISM! Posted September 1, 2003 Report Posted September 1, 2003 He's wearing off me now, but Like I love you, Cry me a River and Rock your body were all sweet pop songs. For that, I don't hate him.
NoCalMike Posted September 1, 2003 Report Posted September 1, 2003 ahh but remember, he didn't write, or compose, or come up with dance moves himself. Hell, he probably barely did the vocals himself(extreme help from top of the line studio recording). I mean if you like his songs, you should thank the 5 or 6 people that gift wrapped every element of the song for him. Timberlake is merely the face put in front of all of someone else's work.
The Czech Republic Posted September 1, 2003 Report Posted September 1, 2003 Justin's just trying to be the next Michael Jackson. All he needs to do is darken his skin up a bit -- and have some sleepovers with the neighborhood kids... Darken his skin and subsequently bleach it back?

But its not like he tries to hide that or anything. Both the Neptunes and Timbaland are highly visible in the music videos for his songs, and he usually thanks them or brings them up at whatever awards shows he's at. I don't understand Timberlake hate myself. He sings catchy songs and isn't a wanker. A good pop artist these days is hard to find.
PLAGIARISM! Posted September 2, 2003 Report Posted September 2, 2003 Yeah, can't say I care who writes the songs.
razazteca Posted September 2, 2003 Report Posted September 2, 2003 Does anybody remember Jon B? Justin stole his sound and Corey Feldman as MJ look and has Neptunes doing his beats.
Guest Agent of Oblivion Posted September 2, 2003 Report Posted September 2, 2003 Justin Timberlake is pretty and has a voice, he's also doing exactly everything right when it comes to being a successful pop musician. I'm completely and utterly indifferent to him, personally. He's certainly going to be around for a while, and will sell many many millions more records than he has already. Girls will scream and cum, because he's cute, and then when he starts getting spooky and gets embroiled in scandal, someone younger and prettier will be right there to replace him.
nl5xsk1 Posted September 2, 2003 Report Posted September 2, 2003 I stopped hating Justin Timberlake when I realized that he was in on the joke. Back when I thought that he was taking himself seriously, I had wicked hatred for him. Now, you see him with the whole "wink and a smile" type of attitude to it all, and you realize that he's just a 22 year old kid who's doing something that he digs doing, is having fun doing it, and getting to bang wicked hot tail as a result. Hate his music, or his entire genre, but don't hate him.

I don't understand Timberlake hate myself. He sings catchy songs and isn't a wanker. A good pop artist these days is hard to find. No need to hate him. I stopped caring about 3 years ago. I listed reasons to ignore Timberlake and not BUY HIS MUSIC. Not reasons to hate him. Hell he could be a really cool guy if we all knew outside the bubble that is pop music culture, however I think it is sad how easily young folks(and even more sad older folks nowadays) are duped into spending money on this guy.
Guest Agent of Oblivion Posted September 2, 2003 Report Posted September 2, 2003 It's a perfect racket though, more money, more fame, more fantasy, which in turn makes him richer and more famous. It's a position I'd love to be in, but I'd degenerate into doing creepy bass licks on tour when everyone wants cute pop music. He knows exactly what he's doing, and is set for life because of it. Lucky fuck.
NoCalMike Posted September 3, 2003 Report Posted September 3, 2003 well yes, we would all do it, if we had the chance to actually get paid for it. I am not knocking him really, moreso the people that get caught up in his music.
Lil' Bitch Posted September 3, 2003 Report Posted September 3, 2003 Basically, I respected him once he went solo. Then he showed the world what he could do on his own and some devoted NSYNC haters could say, "Hey, I dig his music, maybe he isn't so bad after all." Although, the media's CONSTANT overlooking of the Spears / Timberlake saga is fucking annoying and played out. It shouldn't matter whose fault it was for ending the relationship, but I blame Justin for adding fuel to fire when he took a shot on his ex with the "Cry Me A River" video, that just added more to media frenzy. Plus I also heard NSYNC was gonna get back together... *groans
Guest Doyo Posted September 4, 2003 Report Posted September 4, 2003 http://billboard.com/bb/daily/article_disp...tent_id=1967986 Timberlake Ties Up Tasty McDonald's Deal Justin Timberlake has signed a multi-tiered sponsorship deal with McDonald's. The alliance is tied to the restaurant chain's new worldwide marketing campaign, which launches this month. Timberlake will sing on and appear in several new McDonald's "I'm Lovin' It" commercials, the first of which debuted yesterday in Germany and will begin airing Sept. 29 in the U.S. Additionally, McDonald's will sponsor the Jive artist's 35-city European solo tour, which starts in November. The "I'm Lovin' It" hip-hop jingle was written by Mona Davis and produced by superstar duo the Neptunes and the Clipse, who also raps on the song. Timberlake will be involved in activities to support the Ronald McDonald House Charities, World Children's Day at McDonald's and the chain's global sports sponsorships, including the FIFA World Cup and the Olympic Games.

Since JC Chasez also has a solo career "booming" (aka Bombing), Bass is a rocket scientist or something...Fatone is a Actor these days (doing broadway and hit movies) and the other guy? No one seen him. But what I want to know is...WHERE THE HELL ARE THE BSB? I can see N*sync being active but BSB, the better band is no where to be found...Cept for Nick Carter's short lived rock career...
Guest TheGame2705 Posted September 4, 2003 Report Posted September 4, 2003 That might be because JC's song licks yeast infected poon. I've never heard a crappier song.
