Justin Timberlake is receiving the poorest reviews of his career for his sixth studio album, Everything I Thought It Was<\/i><\/b>, released today. It currently holds a Metascore of 53 based on eight reviews, making it his lowest scored album.
“JT hasn’t brought sexy back. I don’t think he took it anywhere near the studio either. Perhaps he left it under one of those hotel mattresses he claims to have broken.” \u2605\u2605 \u2014The Independent<\/b><\/span>

“Just as that Teflon coating is beginning to erode under the glare of cultural scrutiny, Timberlake’s music has begun to lack zest. What goes around has indeed come back around.” \u2605\u2605\u00bd \u2014The New York Times<\/b><\/span>

\u201cEverything I Thought It Was\u201d returns to Justin Timberlake\u2019s comfort zone: gleaming, lightly profane disco jams that imagine dance-floor seduction as a kind of interstellar odyssey. The results are mixed, our critic @lindsayzoladz<\/a> writes. https:\/\/t.co\/2QS447FPmp<\/a><\/p>\n

“Everything I Thought It Was<\/i> shows [Timberlake] hasn’t lost his vocal chops or ability to work a groove, but it doesn’t do enough to make you block out past misdemeanours. For now, his problematic fave era will have to wait.” \u2605\u2605\u2605 \u2014NME<\/b><\/span>

“Timberlake recently told Apple Music that Everything I Thought It Was<\/i> is his ‘best work’ yet. It’s not. This was actually disproven during the very first song.” \u2605\u2605\u00bd \u2014Rolling Stone<\/b><\/span>

“Everything I Thought I Was<\/i> is certainly not the career defining masterwork Timberlake seems to think it is, but nevertheless it’s enough to get him over that mid-life bump.” \u2605\u2605\u2605 \u2014The Telegraph<\/b><\/span>
