Hooray! Hooray! Singer and actor Justin Timberlake is finally working on a new album. Digital Spy exclusively reports that US
producer Jim Beanz - who has previously worked with Britney Spears and Katy
Perry - told them that the former 'N SYNC star is currently penning tracks with
Timbaland and that he will be joining them later this year. "When I get
back to the States I'm going to be helping out on Shock Value 3 with Timbaland
and the Justin Timberlake project," Jim said. "It's still in the
early stages, but they have a lot of tracks. While I've been over here in the
UK they've been working, so by the time I get back they'll have a whole load of
ideas and I'm going to have to catch up!" He added: "He has some
crazy, crazy stuff." Asked if Timberlake is feeling the pressure to top
his critically and commercially acclaimed album FutureSex/LoveSounds, Jim
explained that it will not be a concern. "There are certain artists who
live in the moment and the reason why FutureSex/LoveSounds was so amazing is
because he didn't try to top Justified," he said. "There are certain
artists who can get inside with great charisma and energy and make great music
every time. So it's not really about topping the last record, it's more about
topping music that comes on the radio. "Everything is so similar that it's
about topping that and doing something different, and that's what they are
going for. He's going to kill it."
