Justin Bieber's Music Mondays: Has He Redeemed Himself?

                     

For those of you who love to hate Justin Bieber, you may want to read something else. It seems as though his immature antics have been put on hold as he is producing some pretty impressive music. The Biebs has introduced a Music Monday in which his fans are able to listen to his freshest music through his Youtube channel.

Now I know what you are thinking, we are talking about Justin Bieber here, but really.. this stuff is GOOD. Reminiscent of old school Usher meets Justin Timberlake, the five songs he has released so far ooze smooth R'n'b/pop and would (almost) convert any Bieber hater. 

 

Heartbreaker

Back at the beginning of October, Heartbreaker pleasantly surprised me. With an addictive chorus and a pure R'n'B flow, you will be pressing repeat before you know it. 

All That Matters

This one is simple: a sultry love song that contains simple chords and simple lyrics, but it works as a chilled, slow jam. High five Biebs. 

Hold Tight

For fans of Drake and Conor Maynard, this one is for you. With sprinkles of that Future Sex/Love Sounds electro pop, this song strips down Bieber's voice and shows his vocal capabilities. 

Recovery 

By now, you would have guessed that this teeny bopper obviously has a broken heart. Picking up the pace with Recovery, there are definitely some elements of Craig David here. I love this one. 

Bad Day

When Bad Day was released at the beginning of this week, I was pleased to hear more of an acoustic influence. Listen out for the impressively high voice about a minute in. 

Dare I say that I can't wait for next week's music? BRAVO BIEBS. 

After 6 Years, Justin Timberlake Releases The 20/20 Experience & Confirms Another Album for This Year!

After much anticipation, former N*Sync member Justin Timberlake released his new album aptly named 'The 20/20 Experience'. The listener is in for a treat with his third studio album as it is a rich and eclectic mix of sound and rhythmn, all compacted into ten powerful songs. 

                            From losangelesleakers.com

The collection begins with Pusher Love Girl, a song that contains the beautiful utilisation of stringed instruments, with producer Timbaland's womping. With exciting beginnings, the album progresses with Timberlake's first single to be released Suit and Tie. Slick and slow, the song evolves into a magically melodic and completely addictive tune. Don't Hold The Wall is an epic compliation in itself, as it adopts an Eastern quality and is reminiscent of the infectious pop that made up his previous album.

Tunnel Vision has Timbaland's name written all over it, with a sub-bass quality and a repetitive whistling, the pair have definitely got it spot on with this tune- it will definitely be a contender for  single release. What I was most impressed with on this album was the length of the songs. Tunnel Vision is over six minutes long, Spaceship Coupe is more than seven minutes and Mirrors is just over eight.

My favourite track on the album had to be That Girl. With a speakeasy-esque introduction to JT and the Tennessee Kids, the song has a smoothly mixed tempo, a jazzy feel and retro melodic atmosphere. Strawberry Bubblegum was the least impressive track, as the listener has to endure a  woman making sexual noises half way through the song- perhaps the sensual aspect could have been toned down.

Timberlake had his album launch party this week, where he confirmed on Twitter: 

@jtimberlake: "I gotta clear a rumor up. This whole thing about this being the first half of the album is TRUE." #iHeartJT #confirmed

Despite the lack of release date, you can be sure to expect 20/20 part II in November! 

I give this album-   ★★★★
