Justin Timberlake and Beyonce CD Reviews

Dec 27, 2006

These pop pros both went solo a long time ago and have managed to make it a success. Check out the sophomore albums from two of the biggest names in the business!

Justin Timberlake - FutureSex/LoveSounds

Justin Timberlake is back after a strangely long absence from recording. His sophomore solo album, FutureSex/LoveSounds, was produced by music mogul Timbaland - who has produced tracks for Missy Elliott, The Pussycat Dolls, Nelly Furtado, Ludacris and a ton of other huge names. My Love and All Over Again are slick, catchy tunes. However, most of the tracks sound like the awkward musings of a kid who can't pluck up the courage to talk to his crush. Justin's not ready to bring SexyBack from anywhere. He should have left it where he found it.

    Beyonce - B'Day
    Beyonce shows Justin what a second album should sound like with B'Day. Confident, sexy, rocking - just try to resist the charms of the album that dropped on Beyonce's 25th birthday. Like a good B'Day party, this album draws you in, shakes you up, and sends you home wanting more. From retro throwbacks to fierce club tracks - this album has it all. Some might say that Beyonce has got too full of herself on this album but we say the girl knows how to throw a party.
