Born in 31 January 1981, Memphis, Tennessee,
USA. Timberlake rose to fame in the late
90s as a member of hugely popular US vocal
group 'N Sync, with whom he enjoyed a string
of bestselling singles and albums. Timberlake
became the
most prominent member of the group owing
to his personal relationship with teen pop
queen Britney Spears, although by the time
he launched his solo career in late 2002
the celebrity couple had endured a very
public split. Timberlake hooked up with
prominent urban songwriting and production
heavyweights the Neptunes and Timbaland,
to work on his debut album, with additional
assistance from Brian McKnight and Mario
Winans. He co-wrote all of the material
on Justified in a marked attempt to distance
himself from 'N Sync's adolescent fanbase
and woo a more mature audience. The debut
single "Like I Love You' featured verses
provided by the Neptunes" protégés
the Clipse, and was eerily reminiscent of
Michael Jackson in his mid-80s prime. The
album also included collaborations with
Janet Jackson and Bubba Sparxxx, and featured
his Top 5 hit single "Cry Me A River".
