The 20/20 Experience (Justin Timberlake's latest album)-Track by Track Review


Pusher Love Girl- It’s rare that an album starts with a song that is 8 minutes in length….however this song does a good job of setting the state for your 20/20 experience with Mr. Timberlake. The chorus is great, but I just wish the song was a bit shorter.

8/10

 

Suit & Tie- I didn’t like this song the very first time I heard it but man did it grow on me. The song features Jay-z, the great Brooklyn rapper. However JT is the star of the show, and Jay’s weak verse can’t steal the spotlight. The song has a varied beat, and is ridiculously catchy.

9.5/10

 

Don’t Hold the Wall- This song is really interesting. It has an Arabic feel to it(which seems quite common on Timberland produced songs). The lyrics are very clever here, and it’s clear that this midtempo song should have been the first song in my opinion.

9/10

 

Strawberry Bubblegum- J.T. slows things down a bit with Strawberry Bubblegum. Timbaland continues to add his vocals to the mix. Justin does a good job here blending his voice with the sultry beat. I think the chorus is also pretty clever. “Hey hey hey hey hey, smackin that strawberry bubblegum”.

8.5/10

 

Tunnel Vision- T.V. is a tremendous uptempo song. I love it because it sounds pretty fresh and original. However J.T. doesn’t leave his comfort zone and delivers. The beat is really something special.

10/10


Spaceship Coupe- A slower song, but it’s really nice. I find the chorus really good. The song doesn’t feel too long, even though its about 7 minutes.

8.5/10

 

That Girl- JT and the Tennessee kids perform lol! This song is decent, but doesn’t that sound that original. However it does keep the album’s cohesiveness.

8/10


Let the Groove Get In- This is an awesome song. I love the chorus, and the beat. It kind of reminds me of MJ’s Wanna Be Startin Something song. In any case this is JT doing what he does with ease.

9.5/10

 

Mirrors- Mirrors is a song that grew on me. It’s a heartfelt song with a typical TImbaland beat. The lyrics are what drive the song. This is another song that is long, but doesn’t feel too long. The last part of the song is a tad bit too repetive.

9/10

 

Blue Ocean Floor- This is a very slow tempo song, but its effective. You just gotta listen to the JT’s clever lyrics. This song makes me feel like I’m underwater haha.

8/10


I give this album a 9.5/10. Its not perfect but the good outweighs the average easily…..Suit and Tie Ish!

Tech Review: Iphone Air

 I have only had this phone for over a week but I feel the need to review it. I recently got a 512gb light gold iPhone Air. This phone is so thin. You really have to hold it for yourself to believe it. I knew when I used it at a local Best Buy I had to have it. The phone is also a modern marvel having most of the technology in the camera bump. Of course you're wondering about that camera and battery life.  Honestly the battery is decent. It gets me through the day at work with minimal charging ( I mean who goes somewhere with no charger anymore?). The camera is good too. I'm not a huge camera guy anyways. The phone's 6.5 inch Super Retina XDR OLED display is great. I really notice a difference from my old phone (iPhone 12). The phone doesn't really get that hot either which is great. One thing I'm not a huge fan of is the one speaker on the phone....but honestly it's not that bad. I usually use headphones anyways. Apple Intelligence is still in beta but I think ...

Album Review: Schoolboy Q-Blue Lips

 Ok I am a big Schoolboy Q fan. I gotta say I love this album...but believe it or not what kept me from getting it till fall 2024 was that horrendous album artwork lol. I mean damn its gross! Schoolboy has some great flows and lyricism on this album. "Thank god 4 me" is absolute flames. "Blueslides" is another highlight. There's something about the song "first" that is just so catchy to me. "Yern" is also pretty hard man. The guest list is minimal but it works. The production is really good here too. The album isn't quite as good as Blank Face to me but its definitely a major improvement over his last album Crash Talk. Definitely check this one out. Lyrics 24 Beats 23 Depth 23 Tilt 23 Verdict 93

Video Game Review: Jedi Fallen Order

 I meant to review this game way back in the day when I first beat it but this is coming after my 2nd play-through. This time I played the game on hard difficulty and man was it tough. Compared to Jedi Survivor I think the game has a better story. You join Jedi padawan Cal Kestis as he escapes a scrapyard planet Bracca , fleeing from the Empire. Cal comes face to face with an Inquistor called 2nd sister. You end up fighting her a total of 4 times in the game.  The main story is Cal must help a former Jedi named Cere and her pilot Greez to find a Jedi holocron that has a list of force sensitive children to rebuild the Jedi Order. I gotta say the planets you visit are all for the most part pretty flushed out . I found Zeffo to be the main planet and navigating it is truly awful. Well I’m glad they made navigation better in Jedi Survivor. Of all the planets Dathomir (Darth Mauls planet) was by far the worst. There was tough enemies around every corner there and hard boss fights w...
