i finally broke down and bought the latest justin timberlake album.  i'm more than a little ashamed of my love of pop music, which made me decide to stay away from this one if i could.  however, many many people whose tastes i respect have praised this one enough so that i've finally put my money down for an actual cd. 

what can i say?  his stuff is catchy. 

okay, yes, i did express disdain for his music and debut solo performance on the mtv video music awards back in 2002 ("cheap michael jackson rip-off" were my exact words) and then proceeded to do a full 180 after i met him at a club in the east village less than a week later.  so what?  it's not like we're friends or anything...

(don't i wish!)

anyway, the disc is good overall, but, if you're into iTunes, just download whatever you like from what you've heard over the airwaves.  that's really the best of it.

very much looking forward to the hbo special on labor day.  cutie!
