Let the hype for Justin Timberlake’s The 20/20 Experience sequel officially begin!
Today, the blue-eyed soul star dropped the visuals for his new record “Take Back The Night,” the first single lifted from his upcoming The 20/20 Experience – 2 of 2 album.
When Timberlake laid the vocals for the groovy track, produced by Timberland, it’s obvious that he channeled his inner Michael Jackson — most likely from the King of Pop’s Off The Wall days. The video shows the singer dancing to the old-funk sound on the streets of New York City and live onstage.
