Now I must say I'm a bit biased as I'm a huge fan of Justins, I think he's an extremely talented man and has the ability to take his career and carry it on for as long as he wants. Many people claim that it's a bad thing for how familiar sounding Justin is to Michael Jackson, I personally don't see this as a bad thing as it takes the great sound that we first loved MJ for and gives it a new face for a new generation.

Justin's a very talented man who's got an excellent voice for an album which gives us songs that are very much memorable. Like I love you was the first song to be released as a single and in kind was Justins first ever solo single; there was a rumour that this song was first offered to MJ himself who turned it down which led to Justin picking up the song and making it his own.

With all the comparisons to MJ that people want to throw out there, Justin really brings his own individual touch to this debut album. His individual sound is really expressed through the song Cry Me A River, which many will agree is one of his best songs to date. People believe this was written with the thought of his ex-girlfriend Britney Spears in mind as is apparent in the video. The song is soulful and powerful in giving off an energetic and emotional sound which is something that is unique to Timberlake and helps bring the critics away from this notion of him being a carbon copy of MJ.

Does Justin sound like Michael Jackson? The answer is yes he does. Is it a bad thing? The answer is no. Justin is an individual musician with a sound that is familiar to the old funk/disco of the 70s but he's someone who can make this sound his own and can make us think, WOW!!! That is precisely my reaction when I first heard this album and if you haven't heard this already then when you do finally hear it all you will have the same reaction.

Love the beats on the song" like i love you" awsome!!!!
