Superstar Justin Timberlake returns with Man of the Woods, his follow-up to the critically acclaimed 20/20 Experience. In this new record, Timberlake goes back to his Southern roots in an attempt to combine elements of country and folk with today’s modern sounds. For example, “Montana” is a seamless blend of acoustic and electronic elements, while “The Hard Stuff” is a strong pop-rock ballad that smoothly mingles with the Nashville melodies. Though Timberlake puts up a great effort in combining these genres, there are only a few moments in this project where the fusion really flourishes.
