American singer-songwriter Justin Timberlake has written and recorded material for his five studio albums. Timberlake released his solo debut studio album, Justified , in November 2002. [ 1] Most of the album was produced by The Neptunes , with additional collaborators including Brian McKnight , Scott Storch , Timbaland , and The Underdogs . "Like I Love You ", written by Timberlake, Chad Hugo, and Pharrell Williams. "Cry Me a River ", produced by Timbaland,[ 2] an R&B song about a brokenhearted man who moves on from his past, went on to win the Best Male Video and Best Pop Video at the 2003 VMAs.[ 3] A Rolling Stone reviewer called the song a "breakup aria ."[ 4] Timberlake, Hugo and Williams also wrote "Rock Your Body ", and "Señorita ".
His second studio album FutureSex/LoveSounds , was released in September 2006.[ 5] It infuses R&B and pop with techno , funk , and elements of rock , the last being the genre that was the main inspiration of Timberlake during the album's recording. The electro R&B song "SexyBack ", is built around a pounding bass beat, electronic chords, and beat box sounds. Andrew Murfett of The Age wrote that the song was a "raunchy club banger that slyly suppresses" Timberlake's customary falsetto. "My Love " is a synthpop -influenced, R&B and hip hop song.[ 6] "What Goes Around... Comes Around ", is a pop-R&B song performed in a slow manner[ 7] and was described by some music critics as a "sequel" to his 2002 song "Cry Me a River". "LoveStoned/I Think She Knows " is an R&B and art rock song[ 8] that contains sexually suggestive lyrics and includes "human beatbox sounds" in its composition. [ 9] Rolling Stone described the song as "flowing from hip-hop bump-and-grind to an ambient wash of Interpol-inspired guitar drone."[ 10] Timberlake co-wrote and appeared as a featured vocalist on several songs, including "Give It to Me " with Timbaland , "Ayo Technology " with 50 Cent , "4 Minutes " with Madonna and "Dead and Gone " with T.I.
In March 2013, after a seven-year hiatus from his solo music career, Timberlake released his third studio album, The 20/20 Experience .[ 11] The record incorporates neo soul styles with elements of older rock and soul music ; its lyrics discuss themes of romance and sex. As a songwriter, Timberlake mainly collaborated with Timbaland , Jerome "J-Roc" Harmon , and James Fauntleroy , and co-produced the tracks along with Timbaland and Harmon. "Suit & Tie ", is a mid-tempo R&B song, that incorporates a "slow-drawl" consisting of slowed down synths and "slightly out of time" drum claps, similar to the Chopped and Screwed .[ 12] "Mirrors ", is a progressive pop and R&B track, lyrically a love song about person's other half. "Let the Groove Get In " is a dance and pop song accompanied by canned horns , propulsive percussion and Timberlake's harmonized voice over a pop arrangement.[ 13] In September 2013, Timberlake released the second half of the project, The 20/20 Experience – 2 of 2 .[ 14] It included the pop ballad "Not a Bad Thing " and the gospel-blues "Drink You Away ".[ 15] Timberlake also appeared on the songs "Love Never Felt So Good " from Xscape and "Holy Grail " from Magna Carta Holy Grail . For the disco-pop song "Can't Stop the Feeling! ", Timberlake collaborated in the songwriting and production with Max Martin and Shellback .[ 16] The production of his fifth studio album Man of the Woods (2018) was handled by Timberlake, The Neptunes , Timbaland , Danja , and Rob Knox .
This list shows the title, year, other performers, and writers for each song which Timberlake has recorded during his solo career, outside the band NSYNC .
