For crying out loud, stop making it about race. Justin Timberlake is completely himself in every single interview. He is not 'acting black' and stealing black culture or R&B. His favorite artists growing up were black. It's called influence.
He is so humble!! I'm traveling from Johannesburg to Albany in July to watch him live!!! An ultimate dream come true!! Justin Timberlake is a legend!!!
He doesn't take too long to answer questions or is slow. He's just thinking before he opens his mouth. He's said quoted his grandfather multiple times and has said let people think you're stupid rather than open your mouth and prove it to them. Simply put, think before you speak which is what he does.
If you listened to NSYNC's albums and not just the singles you'd know that they had a lot of AC and R&B tracks. Also, in their early tours they used to dance to Missy Elliott, Queen Pen, Timbaland, etc. They opened up for Janet Jackson and sang an acapella duet with her to Stevie Wonder's Overjoyed. They worked with Brian McKnight, Joe, Full Force, etc. They were not all pop, that was the Backstreet Boys.
I'm really pissed off at you guys. Jt is always like that. He's very humble. He's not trying to act black. If you guys really knew from like interviews etc etc. you would know that he's always like that. And honestly, jt doesn't give a shit. I think it's really sad how everyone is so hard to please these days. You get what you get. If you don't like it, get the fuck out.
***** It's not uncommon for people to change the way they talk depending on the people they're around. I'm originally from NY and whenever I travel there and hang around my family, my old new york accent comes out. I'm also Latina, and when I'm around other latinos the spanglish comes out. Look at the way Kanye West sounds on Ellen Degeneres vs. The Breakfast Club. Some people just have different dialects that they switch back and forth between and it doesn't mean any of them are fake.
this dude disrespected the King of Rock and Roll, Prince.....he got whatever is coming to him and he really isn't that nice an artist....take away million dollar producers and he would be a sitting duck
Stop hate and racism ,,this guy didnt stole blacks music,,he lived in that time,he loves blacks music,thats his passion,,blacks shoukd be proud of him,hope people can feel it,,lets enjoy the gifts of music jt gives,,before his gone,,a white guy,has so much love in "black" music,' ,hehe,,well makes sense to me,love this guy,period.
Just got chills thinking of how in Baltimore during the Legends tour, it started to lightly rain right before Justin sang End of Time and ended halfway through Cry Me A River. Best concert ever!
JT is himself all the time. I have been a fan of Justin's since he was in Nysync. I think he has different sides to him as we all do, but I in no way think he changes personality because of the race he is around. I think some people you have a more relaxed interview with and some people you are a little more closed off or a little more reserved. Stop Hating people this is his year and he is doing his think. If you don't like it don't watch
When he says he was working with Beyonce, he means the song "Rocket". Which makes total sense on the sound he used in 20/20 since the inspiration came for it when he was working on Rocket.
Y is everything always about color and race, this sickens me, this man is talented , and puts on a hell of a show live...what difference does it make how he acts around Ellen or Sway...
Michael Jackson is Michael Jackson. Justin Timberlake is Justin Timberlake. ... Nobody is close to Michael, and nobody is close to Justin Timberlake. Though i'd say that Justin Timberlake is the Prince of Pop. Without a doubt.
You absolutely know Nothing about Michael Jackson at all to even think that. timberFake will never come close. The media markets these pop tarts to be these icons and y'all fall for it each & every time. There's no comparison-
music is for everyone,,i couldnt imagine if only one color would run the music today,its very lonely. jt may not be the best right now,but 1 things for sure at the end of the day,,when his gone,,blacks will remember and respect him.,as mj says no matter if your "black or white". ,respect,
You're surprised that he acts differently around different people? Everyone does this, it comes natural with having a large, diverse group of friends with varying personalities. People are just making this a race issue which is fucking stupid.
AbsentAbsinthe Well, since you asked, I'm not surprised. The purpose of my comment was to bring light to the issue and so that others realize that everyone does it... no matter what the race is. Sometimes, you have to paint a picture where you put others in those same shoes for them to realize that it's wrong to think that way.
I just think blacks (im black) have had it out for jt ever since that janet jackson incident bk in 04. They cant get over what he did and hang it over his head forever. Give props where props is due. The boy might have some personal flaws(being punkish, a mamas boy, wanting to please the masses by any means necc.) but musically he is very talented and has always had that swag (loved jt since his nsync days) tbh hes actually more urban but he downplays it to appeal to the white masses.(sell out) now if u wanna talk abt changing voices/personalities during interviews, lets talk about drake aka mr aubrey grahmn. -_-
midnitedawn Because you were there too right? Ignorant ass niggas like you with that FUCKED UP mentality that whenever a white person has rhythm its simply because a black person showed him, da fucx? YOU CAN'T TEACH RHYTHM! Fucking troll
I love JT so much since back in the day with NSYNC. So sad he's married, but he still belongs to me in my head. I will be seeing my boo in concert in Chicago. XOXO
Come on, Justin done so many hard works since 2002 to take the MJ award. And after 7 years without music, he made the biggest comeback with 2 albums this year...This is his year. Don't worry. I am really sure Usher will have it soon.
OMG listen especially 18:00-19:01. He is talking about his wife Jessica Biel! Justin Timberlake: ''She is the greatest of all time!'' SO ADORABLE 😍😍❤ #TimberBiel
Have zero use for boy bands and only mildly into hip hop for a white dude. I like Public Enemy, NWA, Beastie boys. De la soul .... Oh and Ton Loc (and a few others) . With that said , this dude I respect. He was able to rise above the boy band shit. Hysterical on SNL, his bee gees thing is gold if your older and came from the Bee Gees era. He can act pretty well and he is just plain funny on SNL. Kid is talented and seems like a pretty good person. Respect for this Kid even though 90% of what he does is not aimed at me.
Yep. Remember "Give In To Me" that JC wrote? They performed it at their Disney Pleasure Island concert, but it never made the album. The first song they all co-wrote on their debut "Giddy Up" definitely had a hip hop feel. Joey Fatone used to sing doo-wop. Their harmonizing style was like Boyz II Men. They all had a background in R&B except Lance, who's from Mississippi and liked country lol.
I'm ready for JT to release the clips of him and Timbaland in the studio. Really cool how they recorded the whole process of making both parts of "The 20/20 Experience".
When JT first came into the spot light, I used to hate him, but later on in the years he started to grow on me. I found out the things he does for his fans and he's not a snobby celeb, JT is a true down to earth guy. I have so much respect for him now. Never judge a book by it's cover. ps Sway thank you for this interview and Heather B god bless you and thanks for your inspiration you give us every morning.
I barely started getting into JT's music with his new album, I think the other 2 songs I liked from him we're "Cry Me a River" and "What goes around...Come around", but that was pretty much it. When his new album came out I decided to give his music a try, and my surprise I loved his new album, it's badass. Now, I see that this guy is a really humble, talented, dude.
Michael and Quincy produced all the songs, Michael, Jones, Temperton, Steve Porcaro, John Bettis and James Ingram wrote them but Jackson wrote most of the songs, namely "Billie Jean" & "Beat It".
aint gonna lie I use to make fun of this dude when he was in NSYNC because I was a fan of Korn & Limp Bizkit at the time but I secretly loved a few nsync songs. This is the only year I watched VMA's so I can see Nsync lol..dont judge me
sway is a music legend.. i rememeber watching his shit on mtv since i was like 8... think about it he might not be a singer/rapper but hes always been in the scene as an interviewer.. his head wear will go down as his catch in the game you wont be able to think of interviews in music without thinking sway... 105 is taking baby steps but its rare people stay on as long as sway
For crying out loud, stop making it about race. Justin Timberlake is completely himself in every single interview. He is not 'acting black' and stealing black culture or R&B. His favorite artists growing up were black. It's called influence.
Amen
It's 8 years later and sir it's only gotten worse!!! Best comment, God bless....
EXACTLY!!
And dude is from Memphis Tennessee so he’s not “acting” black hes “acting” southern
I agree with that good point 'cause skin colour doesn't matter at all why do people have to be so f***** racist
He is so humble!! I'm traveling from Johannesburg to Albany in July to watch him live!!! An ultimate dream come true!! Justin Timberlake is a legend!!!
He doesn't take too long to answer questions or is slow. He's just thinking before he opens his mouth. He's said quoted his grandfather multiple times and has said let people think you're stupid rather than open your mouth and prove it to them. Simply put, think before you speak which is what he does.
I've seen him in concert twice and he's a terrific live performer.
Justin Timberlake is an OG
Y'all need to stop this dude is from Memphis Tennessee I'm sure he grew up around black ppl
If you listened to NSYNC's albums and not just the singles you'd know that they had a lot of AC and R&B tracks.

finally someone talks real shit! thank you! :)
this dude disrespected the King of Rock and Roll, Prince.....he got whatever is coming to him and he really isn't that nice an artist....take away million dollar producers and he would be a sitting duck
he is so calm and humble it's hard to even believe that he's so famous!
How cool is JT? he is the man.
Wetuiopdfghjkcvbnm and you ❤
Stop hate and racism ,,this guy didnt stole blacks music,,he lived in that time,he loves blacks music,thats his passion,,blacks shoukd be proud of him,hope people can feel it,,lets enjoy the gifts of music jt gives,,before his gone,,a white guy,has so much love in "black" music,' ,hehe,,well makes sense to me,love this guy,period.
They should play chill ass music throughout the ENTIRE interview like they did at the end. It just sets a cool vibe.
Just got chills thinking of how in Baltimore during the Legends tour, it started to lightly rain right before Justin sang End of Time and ended halfway through Cry Me A River. Best concert ever!
Justin Timberlake is the best pop artist alive even though I still miss MJ :(
fuck is you smoking?
@@mattycakesmuhammmad who's the best right now then?
@@johnnycage1994 om not a homosexual so eye don't listen to pop....so eye can't answer your question
@@mattycakesmuhammmad so you think a person is gay for listening to pop smh
@@mattycakesmuhammmad and you made a comment but you won't answer the question when you are asked
The rapper he should work with is Eminem. THAT would be a crazy record.
Lol they look like twins.
I love Em and JT but i don't know if that would make sense lol, could you imagine it, Eminem ft. Justin Timberlake? Fuck udk whatever
Em took stabs outta nsync so im not sure jt would be up to it.
It would work Iv always prayed for that collaboration. It would have to be produced by Timbaland and Dr dre.
***** He's worked with 50 Cent (who Em signed)

He's on his own level. LOVE HIM...JT is a legend that lives with us.
Y is everything always about color and race, this sickens me, this man is talented , and puts on a hell of a show live...what difference does it make how he acts around Ellen or Sway...
Jt is not the next mj. We know that but jt is the closest thing to mj.
Michael Jackson is Michael Jackson.
Justin Timberlake is Justin Timberlake.
...
Nobody is close to Michael, and nobody is close to Justin Timberlake.
Though i'd say that Justin Timberlake is the Prince of Pop. Without a doubt.
***** its so true :-)
You absolutely know Nothing about Michael Jackson at all to even think that. timberFake will never come close. The media markets these pop tarts to be these icons and y'all fall for it each & every time. There's no comparison-
manwomanboogie really? Justin Timberlake is extremely talented... not just musically. Give the Man props...
manwomanboogie You are probably that person who thinks that anyone who gets popular are untalented artists.
ahhh!! his voice everything is beautiful xxx
Justin timberlake said kanye west is a genious people so stop the hate and start to appreciate
music is for everyone,,i couldnt imagine if only one color would run the music today,its very lonely. jt may not be the best right now,but 1 things for sure at the end of the day,,when his gone,,blacks will remember and respect him.,as mj says no matter if your "black or white". ,respect,
MJ's "Black or White" is about interracial relationships lol.
23:19 We all know you enjoyed that 2003 VMA Performance by the way you were nodding your head at that kiss.
He does act a little differently around black people but Jay-Z acts differently around white people. Does that make him a bad person too?
You're surprised that he acts differently around different people? Everyone does this, it comes natural with having a large, diverse group of friends with varying personalities. People are just making this a race issue which is fucking stupid.
I don't think he does... How?

he is perfect in every way possible..
That was a great interview.
Great interview.Justin is such a cool guy.Can't wait to hear the Drake collaboration and 20/20 experience part 2.
Gets me right in the feels when JT talks about MJ 🥲✊♥️♥️♥️ Perfectly put, man!
Did anyone notice how he made a reference to Britney @23:00 -23:26
such a humble guy....
He used to be the cutest thing. However, I will forever remain obsessed with any and all of his music. JT is a certified genius. Loooooveeee him.
JT also plays the guitar and piano, and does some beat boxing
I just think blacks (im black) have had it out for jt ever since that janet jackson incident bk in 04. They cant get over what he did and hang it over his head forever. Give props where props is due. The boy might have some personal flaws(being punkish, a mamas boy, wanting to please the masses by any means necc.) but musically he is very talented and has always had that swag (loved jt since his nsync days) tbh hes actually more urban but he downplays it to appeal to the white masses.(sell out) now if u wanna talk abt changing voices/personalities during interviews, lets talk about drake aka mr aubrey grahmn. -_-
It was janets idea to do that ish. I don't see why people would be mad
midnitedawn Because you were there too right? Ignorant ass niggas like you with that FUCKED UP mentality that whenever a white person has rhythm its simply because a black person showed him, da fucx? YOU CAN'T TEACH RHYTHM! Fucking troll
Don't try to speak for all of us. Bye
+Anchor They're not referring to the Superbowl itself, but Justin's actions after the controversy hit.
brittany crawford jt put himself in a bad light. he threw Janet under the bus.
I love JT so much since back in the day with NSYNC. So sad he's married, but he still belongs to me in my head. I will be seeing my boo in concert in Chicago. XOXO
I really like this interview!
Such a humble guy
He's truly amazing! I've loved him since I was 15!
One of my favorite artists hes so chill
Come on, Justin done so many hard works since 2002 to take the MJ award. And after 7 years without music, he made the biggest comeback with 2 albums this year...This is his year.
Don't worry. I am really sure Usher will have it soon.
Great Interview with Justin..how can u not like JT...seem like a cool dude
OMG listen especially 18:00-19:01. He is talking about his wife Jessica Biel!
Justin Timberlake: ''She is the greatest of all time!'' SO ADORABLE 😍😍❤ #TimberBiel
the end of this interview introduced me to outstanding by gap band back in 2013. that memory sticks with me! THANK YOU JT !! LOL
Have zero use for boy bands and only mildly into hip hop for a white dude. I like Public Enemy, NWA, Beastie boys. De la soul .... Oh and Ton Loc (and a few others) .

That's my man. Gorgeous, talented and humble ❤️😍
i don't know why but it's funny that JT is on Eminem's radio station :))
Justin Timberlake is the best! Great guy, great artist!
This would be why I love JT. Talent can stand the test of time and being class is priceless.
"She plays characters for me" lmao
Top 3 pure entertainer of the last 25 years..
T.E. V. Nah he right
Timberlake seems cool as HELL!
dis dude takes so much time to answer questions i dnt even bother watchin thr whole shit lool
Sway's arms look really smooth looool
***** Sway has that silky sheen action going on.
Lmao
I'm ready for JT to release the clips of him and Timbaland in the studio. Really cool how they recorded the whole process of making both parts of "The 20/20 Experience".

Justin timberlake is a great dancer
this dude is the man
What award shows are they talking about? Around 9:00-10:00
I love watching JT, pharrell and 50 cent interviews...they always drop a lot of knowledge
How dare you make me buy 2 albums in one year! Love JT!!
i do remember watching Kanye perform "Stronger" at the JT concert lol....
I love this TV show and I love Justin Timberlake and my favorite 😍 ❤️ 💕 💗 💖 ♥️ 😍 ❤️ 💕 💗 💖
MJ is the GOD of Pop...But Timberlake is the King of Pop super consistent with great music and a humble star
jt is back :-) i love him..he is funny :-)
Bro JT's got some huge ass hands
Justin takes FOREVER to answer questions. Like, there is a lot of dead air between his sentences. But he is beautiful....
AleahKCH Dude has way too much media training
THANKS SO MUCH JUSTIN FOR SUPPORTING MILEY
I love how smooth he is in his interviews
I barely started getting into JT's music with his new album, I think the other 2 songs I liked from him we're "Cry Me a River" and "What goes around...Come around", but that was pretty much it. When his new album came out I decided to give his music a try, and my surprise I loved his new album, it's badass. Now, I see that this guy is a really humble, talented, dude.
Great point of "pauses" between songs in a live setting. Many artist are lost during down time, and have to much empty space.
From JT's first solo performance i KNEW the direction he was going in and he's right where i thought he'd be as of present.....
I wanna meet him!!!
Same!!!!!
You should buy Futuresex/LoveSounds and The 20/20 experience.All of his albums are good.And check out his first album Justified.
look at his album cover. inside. every song is produced by jt as well.
I was expecting Justin timberlake to be so different wow
Thank you sway for listening to us
JT is such a gift, will be a sad day hes gone from music
Paul Mccartney is a really good guy. Really good. Good to know one of the Princes of rock n roll is a really awesome guy.
the song is called outstanding, check charlie wilsons tribute at the BET is great
JUSTIN KILLED THE VMA'S! CLASSIC PERFORMANCE
Michael and Quincy produced all the songs, Michael, Jones, Temperton, Steve Porcaro, John Bettis and James Ingram wrote them but Jackson wrote most of the songs, namely "Billie Jean" & "Beat It".
JT, you are the flipping coolest. You just seem to have the greatest life ever and are the coolest dude ever. You've lived the life.
That beatbox was actually dope...
Justin Timberlake's smile is the cutest thing ever:')
outstanding well put on the whole interview i respect the respect shout out JT
Justin kept low-key roasting his ass for that astrology shit 💀
aint gonna lie I use to make fun of this dude when he was in NSYNC because I was a fan of Korn & Limp Bizkit at the time but I secretly loved a few nsync songs. This is the only year I watched VMA's so I can see Nsync lol..dont judge me
Fav Singers
Michael Jackson , Chris Brown , Justin Timberlake , Stevie Wonder , Usher , Omarion , Lloyd , R. Kelly , Miguel
Love JT so much, he is always himself
That's dope.
I'm an astrologer and writing next week's horoscope while listening to this interview :)
Why was everyone calling Justin timberlake a Grizzlies bandwagon fan? He's been a fan since 2013.
Hes one of the owners of the team. lol And from memphis
They want to put the Grizzlies back in Vancouver. Shh it's a secret.
Justin!!! I love you. This was a great interview. Keep up the great job.
sway is a music legend.. i rememeber watching his shit on mtv since i was like 8... think about it he might not be a singer/rapper but hes always been in the scene as an interviewer.. his head wear will go down as his catch in the game you wont be able to think of interviews in music without thinking sway... 105 is taking baby steps but its rare people stay on as long as sway
Exactly! Very unusual. Anywho JT is very bright & has a lot of common sense. He is a true entertainer!!!! Also he gets it...
great interview!
how does sway get his JT interview recorded and hot 97 and power105.1 just got audio smh
I love this guy so muchhhh
I honestly cant wait to hear the track with him and Drake on it. Forrreaaalll!!!
Cabaret aging like a fine wine
