Justin Timberlake’s “Suit and Tie” Single Sales Fizzle; ‘Blame Jay Z,’ Says Music Critic

Justin Timberlake’s entertainment woes continue. The former N’Sync lead singer-turned-actor hasn’t had a hit movie in his acting career, and now his first single in 6 years is a flop.
Music critics believe Timerlake underestimated his audience by asking aging rapper Jay Z to hop on “Suit and Tie”.
“Suit and Tie” is “ruined by Jay Z’s rap plopped into the middle of the song for no reason,” writes Roger Friedman on his Showbiz411 blog.
“Jay Z is fine if you like him, but Timberlake fans don’t want him popping up on records willy-nilly.”
Friedman continues: “The single is great, and so is the video,” says Friedman. “But after a flurry of initial interest and sales, ‘Suit and Tie’ has struggled on all charts. It’s dropped to number 9 already on iTunes, and number 13 on amazon.com. It’s only been 10 days.”
Friedman goes on to note that “the top pop station in the US, Z-100, lists ‘Suit and Tie’ at number 20 of its most popular records this week. And in morning drive, ‘Suit and Tie’ is simply not in the rotation of the last 10 records played.”
This news doesn’t bode well for the former pop idol who needs a strong single to kick start his album sales.
Timberlake’s age is also a factor, according to Friedman (Timberlake is 31, Jay Z is 45).
Friedman believes “Suit and Tie” is already “too sophisticated for the dumbed down audience of today.”
“You think of JT as a kid, but Lady Gaga and Adele are six years younger than him,” he writes.

Justin who?….That song’s a mess. Don’t know how it did so well in the first place
the song is just blah and I almost feel like he’s too grown to be putting out the ish…meh…he should just continue to make jeans and maybe get behind the scenes
I heard the song once and really didn’t pay it much mine but then JZ part came on and it just sounded like it didn’t go. Everything slowed down and ion know what he was talking about and it was just downhill from there.
Morning Everyone!
Is Justin channeling “Ryan Seacrest”?
Well I guess those who like it will buy. Those who dont wont.
same as any other music by any other artist.
@najia i actually like him better as an actor. N as a singer i liked him better with Nsync
That song is ummm
JT may have been replaced by JB(Beiber)
<——- doesn't care for JT (ever since that crybaby stunt he pulled after the Superbowl nipple gate) but I
his music.

yeah he stood out def but his solo joint was hot too even though he was whining about Britney
======================
remember Gone
Jay rap is at the end of the song exactly where another verse or a rap verse should go. I like the song looking forward to the album and official video.
I wanna give JT some, opps he murried

Haven’t heard it…
Justin Timberlake’s music is HORRIBLE and so are his movies….don’t blame Jay Z for his garbage….
I still remember the Janet incident and can’t stand his arse…
Yeah I only heard this song ounce
@najia yeah jt was the truth back then
Hopefully this was just an “im bored, i miss singing.” Project n now that he can see what the general consensus is he will leave it at that.
I think it didn’t do ANYTHING for his vocals he can sing this single sounded “rushed” and sorry he COULD have left out Jay-Z rap verse it did NOTHING for the song …..sounded out of place
I like Justin
but the song does nothing for me really

hasn’t had a hit movie in his acting career
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
JT was in three of the biggest movies in a 12 month span.
“The Social Network”
“Bad Teacher”
“Friends With Benefits”
All did decent numbers at the box office. They are making Bad Teacher into a TV show… for CBS I think…
What are TI and Tiny doing today/yesterday Sandra? They always make you feel warm and fuzzy.
Day b4 yesterday in the R&B divas post I received numerous pieces of advice on dealing with the man who dumped me by text.

(even though you didn’t ask ME) I’LL tell you why….b/c he cried like it was such an accident and let OURJanet take all the heat/backlash. It was like, he got a chance to play with the black kids. They came up with a routine, then his lilly white privilege thinking ass tried to take it a step further. He talked her into showing her tit. She didn’t mind.He CLEARLY ripped that womans clothes off, which to me looked like battery and assault. Not too many blk folks complained b/c they got to see a glimpse of OURJanet’s tit. However, it didn’t flow too well with the “masses”, so what did he do, he cried his way out of if and left the blk kid (OURJanet) holding the bag/taking the rap.

have we said our prayer for our sister-poster’s surgery today yet?
It’s official! Singers Angie Stone & LaTocha Scott will be bringing their lives to the new season of “R&B Divas” in Atlanta. Network sources have exclusively confirmed that TVOne’s hit show “R&B Divas” has two new cast members that can bring it in the talent..and drama…departments.
It was previously reported that Angie would joining the cast of ladies (including Syleena Johnson, Faith Evans, Monifa, Nicci Gilert & KeKe Wyatt). But the second addition has been confirmed as former Xscape member LaTocha Scott.
Filming for Season 2 has already begun with Angie performing at the 2012 Soul Train Awards and LaTocha popping up on the red carpet of the 2013 Trumpet Awards.
What are we looking forward to? Well, Angie is the mother of singer D’Angelo’s child. And they had a long term relationship before he blew up in the industry. And since we still harbor our crush on the mysterious sexiness that is D’Angelo…we’re just hoping to get a little tea on that.
As for LaTocha, her baby’s daddy is her manager. That’s drama in itself. And now that she’s working on her own new music, we’re hoping she spills some secrets about former Xscape members Tiny & Kandi Burruss that we don’t already know.
The official announcement about the two new cast members will be made soon. And the premiere of R&B Divas (Atlanta) kicks off in April.
By the way, the L.A. spinoff of “R&B Divas” is indeed happening–eight episodes have already been ordered. But the five cast members for that show have yet to be announced.

Real Question
Anyone here ever had to start over as far as career wise? Asking bc we had a major layoff been at the job since is was 19 and now I’m 31 and completely lost.
@FAY – who’s having surgery???
It was like, he got a chance to play with the black kids
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Like Jennifer Lopez. Aint played with the black kids since 1998…
They won’t blame this on the fact that the song simply SUCKS, huh?
I’m over JT. He knows he pulled Jantit’s tiddy out on purpose because they planned it.
Fine.
But when he said, “I was just as appalled as everyone else!” and let Jan take the fall… I quit him.
@FAY – never mind…I know
Hey Fay
Celie fangers!!!! That is my favorite part of the movie.
@future get the panny bucket out! It’s
day!!!
Aight y’all know what time it is \__/
Gon drop them panties in the panty bucket
GM Fay Fay u beautiful thang you. I wasn’t aware of anyone going for surgery. But im sending the prayers on up.
IMO, every song isn’t meant for a feature from a rapper. Record execs should stop using teens and tweens as their target market for music, especially for artists who aren’t in their teens – early 20s. Allow these artists to return to their original formula that made them famous.
DB!!!
GAL WHEYuBEEN,How R U????
Aiight back to work
But honestly JT really stands out on SNL, man those are the funniest skits. That dack in a box was funny but then its too more about Mother’s Day being a Mother Lover and another about a 3some and Lady Gaga is on it. Man I was

@najia Latocha always seemed funny style to me. No doubt she had THE VOICE in xscape even tho they all can sing. She pulled that messiness with kandi then thought she was going to go far as a solo artist. She seems like the type to go to extremes if she feels like it will benefit her.
but i do like Angie.:yes:
Hey Fay!
The song’s ok. I wouldn’t change the station when it comes on, but am I the only one who thought it was Robin Thicke singing?
Been a minute since I posted. How’s erbody this morning?
CotDAyuM DBB erryTime i Click to refresh Yo Gravie Changes
Im GooD you toasty?
@AIN’T – I thought her sister was the messy one…yeah Tocha was the voice, just never really made it
Morning LTL mr. Thicke is alllllright wit me. I like him too. I even liked him wen he just went by Thicke n had long hair n rode a bicycle in his first video lol
Song is o.k. It has a nice flow, the song I just can’t stand is Diced Pineapples. OMG anytime I hear that song I have to change the station or leave the room
I really want Tocha to stop lining her lips with black eyeliner.
aint nobody got time for that says:

sexiest cokehead out here sounding like Jason Seaver
@najia maybe her sis is messy too. But wen kandi gave her reasons for not doing an xscape reunion she stated that Toch was the one who did an incriminating n messy interview about her on a ny radio station n they haven been right since. Either way her voice is great. If she comes out wit new music I hope its grown woman music. Not like that one night stand mess she did wit j-shin
I absolutely LOVED that song by LaTocha Scott about a “One Night Stand” and getting knocked up from back in the day.
Kdub it wasn’t that the song was bad but it just left me feeling like “that’s it?”
u memba the video too?
I remember watching a hip hop documentary some years back and Busta Rhymes calling some folks irrelevant and nobody cares, etc…welp where’s Busta these days…be careful the words you speak on somebody else will turn right back at your ass
@107 we posted that ish at the same dayum time
That song was so fuggin gutter yo
Hello e-peeps
I hope yall are in a better mood today then the last time I was on here.. Dont start non’ wont be non’..k?
Music critics believe Timerlake underestimated his audience by asking aging rapper Jay Z to hop on “Suit and Tie”.
The song still sucks though
__________
No that was Jay’s way of paying JT for the work he is doing on Bey’s album without cutting a check. Wale and Lloyd recently did somtheing similar. These celebs like to pay with favors (verses) not money
Morning All
well personally I think that Jay-Z on a hook is a bit outdated, so I can understand how folks are kind of jaded by his verse…but the song really isn’t anything much different as a whole either…
Thats right. N if u are talented you wouldn’t have to put down somebody else’s talent. Your talent should speak for itself
I didn’t like it first listen, never gave it another try at that time.
Friedman believes “Suit and Tie” is already “too sophisticated for the dumbed down audience of today.”

About 10 years ago I got laid off (downsized) as a medical/coding billing office manager… HUNTY i was SO MAD at them crackers (they only laid me the other black girl and the hispanic girl off!!!)

@ Nakeya she will show up but we can’t drink she still sick
The problem with the sound is that a) its not the song you release as a single, it should be a track on the album and b) it sounds out of JT element – it sounds like a Robin Thicke sound; though they are similar JT is for young adults and Robin the grown and sexy.
@BLACKSWAN – has it been in your heart to do something else besides what you’re doing…may be God’s way of forcing you to believe in yourself and to go for your dreams

Good Morning Nakeya!
Yall I’m soooo tired, I wanna take a nap on this desk…. right here right now.
Let’s be real. When JT went solo he was still riding high off of the success of Nsync. Not to say he didn’t have some good songs but he already had a solid fan base. Then he bought into the hype that he was the next coming of MJ and lost his mind. Who did he think he was LL Cool J or Will Smith? He couldn’t act is his darn videos. ANDho told him he could take SIX years off of music and come back with some mediocre crap like that. His core fan base is gone and the song was weak sauce at best. Then he just stuck Jay Z on it like that was going to help him out.
Nakeya she will show up but we can’t drink she still sick

I worked for a medical insurance company from 19 to 30 then got laid off. I went back to school for HIM since that’s what I had so much experience in. Started my current job still doing medical coding then last year got promoted to another area doing something brand new. Swithced majors in school, still keeping on…had I not been laid off I would’ve never went back to school. Blessings come in different shapes and forms. We just need to make sure we don’t miss out cause it may not be wrapped in the paper we want. Everything happens for a reason and God still sits high and looks low

well, the music business has changed. Think about it; these singers of today want to do music, act, sell clothes and everything else. It’s too much. People simply aren’t buying music like that anymore..cd’s that is. These big budget acts just aren’t exciting any more than the new acts. How many of us are still listening to old music? I’m not sure why Justin and Jay-Z dont get that kids who will buy cd’s dont want to see their moms and dads on tv. That is how they look at anyone 30+. And those 30+ are less likely to buy millions of cds.
I dont think the music industry will ever be what it once was. Hell I can put out a song on Itunes or the net just like a big budget artist can. Tell me again what’s the point of having millions of followers when not even a third of them ever buys your product?
