Is It Really Cocky If You Know That It's True?

[Jake Wallace]

Congratulations to Justin Timberlake for scoring his third consecutive US #1 single this week with "What Goes Around... Comes Around". This is the third single from FutureSex/LoveSounds to reach #1, the first two being "SexyBack" and "My Love".

[thisismyname]

Check and Mate.

How many records has he sold so far?

[giovanni_c]

three #1's from one album? That's gotta be a record. Even the most popular artists have flop singles.

[ArmaniMassacre]

just out of curiosity, do you think he reads this site? i mean...he's kinda cool in his own right.

[Johnny Clutch]

Simply put he is the man... i enjoy how 5 or 6 years ago I despised him for the boy band crap, but I must say since the N Sync stuff stopped he has just been awesome.

If I would have said that 6 years ago I would have laughed in my own face, haha

[MightyMaxxMiles]

4 #1 singles

you guys forgot "dick in a box"

[Waltz Whitman]

congrats to him. futurelove/sexsounds is a killer record and i will never be ashamed to admit i love it.

[Gabe Gross]

rad news

for an alternative rock website

[black rose]

Sure, this is an alternative rock website, but I'm sure he's making music history. I get a lot of crap for listening to him, but he has a damn good voice, and he's a damn good preformer.

Congrats.

[lindZ629]

That's great news. I really enjoy FutureSex/LoveSounds.

I think Usher may have had four? I'm not sure.

But seriously, congrats to him.

[AdamTheGreat]

Yes congrats.

[sweetforever]

JT is my boy

[Drewisrad25]

I know I'll get crap for it,
but maybe there should be a name change...
i told one of my friends about this site the other day,
and they asked me "is it about punk?"
and i told him "no not really."
this just furthers my point.

[notoaststereo]

thats pretty awesome. congrats. i enjoy the album

[nevernevernever]

lets not forget to mention hes with scarlet johanson

[blimpcityhero11]

lets not forget to mention hes with scarlet johanson

I think it's safe to say that Britney Spears made out pretty well after dumping him...

[ror.]

this kid is the white jordan of pop music.

[HazeLitRise]

i am so glad that i am not alone in my male enjoyance of this album.

the dudes got skillz.

but dick in a box will always be my favorite thing he has ever done

true, some of the news posted here deals with genres outside of the 'punk' spectrum, but the main focus of the site is still news relating to pop-punk/emo/indie/hardcore music, which would be 'punk'.

[AmIWrong]

He sucks.

[bradyreier]

nice. congrats to him.

[focustempochamp]

well deserved, this album is soo good

[IHopeYourAlone]

He sucks.

You're ignorant.

[cory-182]

He joins Ace of Base and 50 Cent as the only artists to do this.

[iblamethegovt]

You're ignorant.

Here it is folks, the news you've really been waiting for: not liking a recording artist = ignorance.

[chcougar1]

JT is THE man! Anyone who is that talented and gets to nail britney in her prime, cameron diaz, and scarlett johansson is THE man

[bobby runs]

4 #1 singles

you guys forgot "dick in a box"
heres your answer vvvv

He joins Ace of Base and 50 Cent as the only artists to do this.

[LPMagic]

Congratulations? You're actually celebrating this? It's one thing to enjoy music, it's another to pat a made-for-radio pop star on the back.

[music_freek_12]

good job

i agree, the only reason everyone on this website is on his dick is because it's cool to be. don't really understand, his songs are really not that special.
and that dick in a box video is the most retarded thing ever, i can safely say that i hate it.

[keeplioving]

Here it is folks, the news you've really been waiting for: not liking a recording artist = ignorance.

yeah, since when is not liking someone's music considered ignorance?
however, it'd be a different story if he never gave Justin Timberlake the time of day and just decides that he doesn't like his songs.
but we don't know that.

I agree that liking him seems like the "cool" thing to do now. but some of his songs are actually enjoyable...for what they are. I couldn't stand his last record, though.

[Ruggiero2oo8]

good for him.

[insertwithere]

He joins Ace of Base and 50 Cent as the only artists to do this.

close but..........

michael jackson (of course) bad 1987

i just can't stop loving you

[Waltz Whitman]

why is everyone acting like its "cool" to like him? if ive read correctly a few people (including me) have gotten a lot of shit for liking him.

[iblamethegovt]

It's cool to think it's not cool to not hate on loving Justin Timberlake.

[MotionIsntMeaning]

It's cool to think it's not cool to not hate on loving Justin Timberlake.

dude....you just blew my mind.

[Gabe Gross]

plus its not him that has earned these singles...without timberland JT is nothing on this album

i dont even enjoy it that much

[midtown]

I think Usher may have had four? I'm not sure.

But seriously, congrats to him.

Okay but also don't forget other bands have had more singles from the same album that did PRETTY WELL, which I might consider more impressive than three #1 songs. American Idiot, for example.

[Heroin Robot]

His songs seriously sound like all the other crap on pop radio stations. I'm rather shocked that so many of you like him.

[mickeymantle]

let me guess. plugs, mesh shorts, nba hat, and nikes. way to be different. pft.

haha quite the opposite.

[DemoDog]

It's cool to think it's not cool to not hate on loving Justin Timberlake.
Right on, I think?

[hurleypunk28]

It's cool to think it's not cool to not hate on loving Justin Timberlake.

dude it's been 10 minutes and I'm still trying to figure out what in the hell you just said...

[sparklebitca]

I think Justin's going to be making records well into his middle age. Kudos, kid, on being one of my generation's icons.

[starcrossdlovex]

I've loved JT since the beginning of nsync and have never stopped [yeah, that's embarassing but I'll admit it]
And he never disappoints.

[The Revisionist]

Justin Timberlake is a great performer, but this really isn't that good of a song.

[truthbetoldxx]

Justin is the man. Good stuff.

[Chevy114]

I like how he still writes songs about britney and still goes #1 with them!

[rickmo]

JT is THE man! Anyone who is that talented and gets to nail britney in her prime, cameron diaz, and scarlett johansson is THE man


i dont think there is ANYONE that can argue with that, I mean you either love or hate is music, but this right here just is hands down the truth

[rickmo]

The Beatles had 7 #1's in a row at one point, not quite but something ridiculous like 7 singles off one album

[mattycakes]

i know with this whole album it's like "dude even if you don't like justin timberlake, you have to admit this album is good" but i just don't hear it.

I didn't think anyone would've predicted where these two would end up all those years ago. Timberlake is on top of the music world and Spears is the new crazy.
