This is… what? Jennifer Lopez’s ‘This Is Me… Now’ proves that sometimes art and amor just don’t mix
Jennifer Lopez’s much-anticipated new album “This Is Me… Now” — the sequel to 2002’s “This Is Me… Then,” which drops on Friday — once again revolves around her Hollywood love affair with “Gigli” co-star Ben Affleck.But just like that much-maligned romantic comedy did in 2003, Lopez’s first studio album in 10 years — since 2014’s “A.K.A.” — proves yet again that sometimes art and amor just don’t mix.First off, like most sequels, it pales compared to the original.While it was hardly Janet Jackson’s “The Velvet Rope,” Rihanna’s “Anti” or Beyoncé’s anything, “This Is Me… Then” was probably J.Lo’s most “artistic” album.Yes, it had two hit hip-pop bops in “Jenny from the Block” — which infamously featured Affleck in its video — and the lip-licking LL Cool J collab “All I Have.” But Lopez’s third studio LP also found the singer-actress digging for more emotional depth than she had shown on either 1999’s “On the 6” or 2001’s “J.Lo.”But you know what? “On the 6” and “J.Lo” were ultimately better albums because Lopez played to her strengths with booty-shaking beats — the better to hoof it up in some killer couture — rather than heart-tugging feels.And “This Is Me… Now” leans even more into J.Lover rather than J.Lo.While the first single, “Can’t Get Enough” — another hip-pop bop that samples Alton Ellis’ ’60s reggae classic “I’m Still in Love with You” while nodding to Marcia Aitken’s 1977 version of the song— would’ve been a hit 20 years ago, the rest of Lopez’s ninth studio album finds the Bronx-born diva stuck in a romantic rut.

He’s bringing sensitive back: Justin Timberlake makes a smooth comeback with new single ‘Selfish’
“Selfish” — which dropped Thursday morning — finds the pop superstar getting in his falsetto feels over a smooth midtempo groove.“So if I get jealous, I can’t help it/I want every bit of you, I guess I’m selfish,” he sweetly croons in the chorus that proves that, even at 42, he still possesses some of that same boy-band charm that made us fall in love with him when he was a curly-haired teen heartthrob.Indeed, after Timberlake reunited with ’N Sync last fall for the “Trolls Band Together” bop “Better Place,” “Selfish” takes him back to the swoon-worthy sincerity of his boy-band days — long before he fell victim to cancel culture for his purported misdeeds with Janet Jackson (after their 2004 Super Bowl halftime performance) and ex Britney Spears.But while the song recaptures a kind of lost innocence, it also has some muted, moody beats — think Drake — and a hint of melancholy from an older soul.“Selfish” — which reteams Timberlake with longtime producer Timbaland, while bringing in new collaborators Louis Bell (Taylor Swift, Post Malone) and Cirkut (Maroon 5, The Weeknd) — is the first single from the singer’s upcoming sixth studio album, “Everything I Thought It Was,” due March 15.Timberlake also dropped the “Selfish” video, and like the song, it’s a more subtle, subdued affair than, say, “Filthy,” from his last LP, 2018’s “Man of the Woods.”It’s just Justin singing and vibing behind the scenes, proudly rocking the grays in his beard now.The clip — directed by Bradley J.

Justin Timberlake wipes Instagram sparking rumours new music could be on the way
Justin Timberlake has wiped his Instagram account amid rumours that new music is on the way.The singer deleted all his social media content on Sunday (January 7) and replaced his profile image with a new photo yesterday (January 8) which shows him looking at his own reflection in a car’s rearview mirror.The move has prompted fans to speculate that a new track or album could be in the pipeline.His last solo album was 2018’s ‘Man Of The Woods’ but he has been busy recently remixing Jungkook‘s hit single, ‘3D’, which features a brand new verse by Timberlake.Justin Timberlake has finally cleared his social media. pic.twitter.com/3r0gK2gIO8— Lyric Vault (@LyricVault) January 9, 2024He also teamed up with *NSYNC for their comeback single ‘Better Place’, their first song in more than 20 years which Timberlake described as a “love letter to our fans” and he joined forces with Nelly Furtado and Timbaland for recent single ‘Keep Going Up’, which arrived more than 15 years after their hit, ‘Give It To Me’.Meanwhile, Katherine Ryan recently hit out at Timberlake for his behaviour towards Britney Spears and Janet Jackson in the past, calling him a “grubby little eel face”.Timberlake received considerable criticism over various revelations Spears made about him in her recent memoir The Woman In Me. The pair dated between 1998 and 2002 and Spears claimed Timberlake had cheated on her multiple times, and also discussed how he damaged her reputation through the ‘Cry Me A River’ video, where “a woman who looks like me cheats on him and he wanders around sad in the rain”.Timberlake appeared to acknowledge the incidents when he made a comment about “meaning no disrespect” during a recent performance of his hit ‘Cry Me A River’ at a surprise
