[@heartstrings110]

Yes, he has done the Super Bowl halftime. It was maybe 3-4 years ago perhaps.

[@hotdayum]

Pusher Love Girl won the Grammy for best R&B song the year it released.

[@lunneytoonez20]

It’s not until you actually see Justin perform that you realize he has nothing but hits and you know almost every single one of them. He’s really that guy!

[@brittanyedwards6043]

This tiny desk made me so excited to see him on tour this year.

[@whitney37508]

Same! July can't get here fast enough! My last JT concert was 20/20 and that concert was AMAZING.

[@marky147]

Got tickets for London in August, and cannot wait 🙌

[@scottmitchell7126]

What started off as a guy who didn’t necessarily like Justin, actually grew to love Justin through a simple intimate concert, and saw the ability and talent. Amazing stuff 👍🔥

[@grendelz]

Tiny desk has been on fire lately. Babyface,Usher,311,Scarface, and this one was just next level.

[@indiansfever11]

311!!!

[@jeonjin97]

1) The band name is : The Tennessee Kids. They have been with Justin since starting!! They all have their individual works , masters in their field and all come together to perform for and with Justin. They are all insane during concerts 😭 2) Yes Selfish is his first single from #EITIW album. 3) Justin is a crazy performer , do react to his concert videos. It’s insanely entertaining!! Worth the time. Thank you for the reaction 💯💯

[@March2408]

Pusher Love actually won the Grammy for R&B

[@Camille4Real]

@07:06 Nope. "Senorita" and "Rock Your Body" were produced by The Neptunes (Pharrell & Chad). "Pusher Lover Girl," "What Goes Around," and "Sexy Back" were produced by Timbaland. "Until The End of Time," was produced by Danja who worked under Timbaland.

[@jiggetyjes]

I remember when Future Sex/Love Sounds came out it was a big deal JT’s sound changed a little bit and that was because of Timbaland’s production.

[@Camille4Real]

@@jiggetyjes YES! That opening track!?! OMG!

[@walt-live6210]

Yeap timbaland and neptunes worked on that first album together . Other than Brian McKnight and 1 other producer everything was done by them . I love to watch the session on KZbin

[@BOOMNERD51]

This is like the annual office party of all the Tiny Desk Concerts I've seen! Fun!

[@K.M-w3x]

Only thing I disagree with is that he dances like he’s counting. I’ve always admired him for looking so natural when he dances. He makes it look easy/effortless.

[@shalynm1554]

Yeah that was a weird comment. Justin has always been a great dancer, he’s older now and not moving the way he did in his teens - 30s but regardless has always been a great dancer.

[@monicab968]

I was like, do I need to refer him to the 2008 Fashion Rocks show. That's when I said, that groove is just in him.

[@K.M-w3x]

@@monicab968 yes!!!!!

[@vbggnana1386]

Britney and Madonna look like they’re counting, but not Justin.

[@heartstrings110]

Ummm, Justin is not the best dancer 😂and he admits it. But he’s very talented. He makes up for what he lacks in movement with his writing and singing.

[@mattz.7761]

JT makes great choices vocally. These are ridiculously fantastic musicians and sound great probably anywhere but together on a small stage where they can hear each other perfectly and play dynamically like that oh man!

[@minxiv7]

I will always love JT ❤

[@jenniferplumley1921]

JT is absolutely 🔥 I’ve seen him 3x’s live and it’s been worth every cent. The BEST time of my life. 4th time coming 6.24 ATL -$1600.00 worth it and more!

[@leekarr4909]

JT is a long way from his boy band beginning. He never ceases to impress me. From his comedy skits on SNL and with Jimmy Fallon, to the songs he his done with Chris Stapleton onto each new song. IMO he is one of the most talented artists of this generation. The man certainly has a lot of soul. ❤🎶

[@ttaster1650]

I am not into Justin Timberlake per say but this is fantastic. The band, the ladies singing, the brass. I love it. I would buy this

[@ssstarburst87]

I cant help but notice you ain't used nary one of them jokes you had in your pocket. Lolol. Thank you so much for reacting to this and giving Justin the kudos he so rightfully deserves! 💕

[@fayesouthall6604]

I watched it yesterday. It was lit 🔥 his voice is amazing. The band is tight. I bet he loved it.

[@OldManandtheGHome]

Just watched it last night and was very impressed!

[@vanessaseymour2634]

Check out Justin's recent performance of 'Sanctified' on SNL featuring rapper Tobe Nwigwe.

[@katiecrystal1306]

This version of Selfish is unbelievably beautiful ❤

[@BastrdMcQueen]

25:30 You had noticed the intensity of the shaker guy. Right after your comment, you'll notice JT look at shaker guy and give physical cues to the tempo (shaker was a bit slow and dragging the tempo). A few bars later, JT looks back at shaker guy and shows approval. I don't know the story, but I recognize the interaction between live musicians and I bet the issue of dragging tempo was previously addressed in rehearsals. JT bro... like him or love him, he's a Master of Ceremonies.

[@arm6372]

The curly haired kid from NSYNC has done very well for himself. Well done Justin. And thank you for your reaction POLO REACTS.

[@GTSGTS]

He was incredible!

[@katrinajackson5061]

I love Justin!!!! He killed this!!! His band is amazing!!!!

[@Bostonchic-20]

I saw him live in June and his entire band and dancers are so talented truly an incredible show. He gives everyone their own moment to shine during the show it’s awesome.

[@kristilouque8412]

So much fun. JT is always on.🔥😎😍

[@WeirdErnie]

I'm not the biggest JT fan, but he's my age and I always appreciate true talent. I have a few guilty pleasures in his catalog. I'm going to watch the Tiny Desk video now.

[@veralindsay]

Thank you for your great reaction! I just loved this concert. I especially loved Sexyback. Justin has been working with these same musicians for so long you can tell how well they vibe together. 🔥🔥🔥

[@lisafarrell5996]

Justin has done the superbowl half time 3 times. The 1st was with insync and others, the 2nd was janet jackson and others the 3rd was solo.

[@brandonboucher7090]

I think Justin might have perfect pitch

[@K.M-w3x]

Yeah, I’ve wondered this also.

[@kingbadfish]

And unlike Charlie Puth, he doesn't feel the need to tell everyone about it.

[@recipoldinasty]

@@kingbadfishyews…

[@shaughnsimpson441]

I'll never forget seeing JT/JZ perform in London on the suit and tie tour, and JT would play instruments and do backing vocals on Jays tracks. Such a performer

[@ritax8196]

Is it just me or what? Justin’s live versions are always better than studio recordings! It’s hard to not love this guy!❤❤❤

[@moody__lemon86]

This is the best tiny desk ever!!! ❤❤ & to answer the question, yes he’s done the Super Bowl by himself. 2018 in Minneapolis to be exact. It was simply magical. Go watch!!!

[@lunagal]

The first one you didn’t know was Pusher Love Girl…he won a Grammy for it. 20/20 Experience. His world tour is sold out through this year.

[@MFBloosh]

Every Tiny Desk is fire. It'll make you love artists you never thought you would lol.

[@bacup27]

Now THAT is how you do a tiny desk concert absolute fire

[@adamfanalways]

Justin puts on incredible concert shows, I highly recommend buying tickets 🎟️ and go to a show🔥🙌🎶🤟Everyone in this room pure joy of talent period🙌

[@silviaileana3140]

Yes!! He sounds this way at his concerts 🎉😊

[@indiansfever11]

Not exactly my cup of tea, but can't deny JT's talent. He might just be the closest thing to the total package (singing, dancing, star power) since Michael Jackson.

[@bejzbi1]

The Weekend :)

[@Killjoy077]

And that's why they're called the Prince of Pop

[@K.M-w3x]

He’s also quite a decent actor.

[@scottmitchell7126]

@@bejzbi1no chance, not for overall performance. And all the weeknd does is copy and plagiarise MJ to the moon and back. More than any other artist 🤷‍♂️

[@AlphazXG_]

Def Chris Brown and Usher. JT’s dancing skills have dwindled tremendously compared to those two

[@bradspitt3896]

Justin is a well rounded musician. He grew up with disney and went through the ringer with nsync developing his voice and musicianship. He's worked with the best. There's a video of him and Greg Howe do a call and response with the guitar out there. There's not many pop artists anymore that can do that.

[@dxcheong]

The bassline on Rock Your Body is so funky.

[@jacqueline4514]

Never saw this, and I loved it! I have to admit; Justin Timberlake is a guilty pleasure of mine; my respect for him is there because of the history of the several hip hop/rap that he’s done with Jimmy Fallon; they are TIGHT and on the money ❤❤❤

[@OldManandtheGHome]

Mine too. When he and Jimmy Falon get together they are hilarious.

[@cheahbuddy6146]

Why is he a guilty pleasure? Who's hiding there love for music, bruh 🤣.

[@sgarn1]

Tiny Desk made me a fan. It's one of the best performance from TD I've seen.

[@sheknows4991]

His new album is so damn good. If you can see him live, do not pass up the opportunity.

[@saraseifert6005]

Only Justin can take tiny desk music to the next level!

Justin is a BEAST! And the Tennessee Kids are 🤌🏽 He did do the Super Bowl solo. But you should really see him in concert. Too good. (Signed, a GenXer who grew up on The Beatles, R&B and early Hip-Hop.)

[@belleboucles3646]

From when Adam Blackstone is part of the crew, you know JT is not playinnnnn! The intro of Seniorita hits our ears hard, no wasting time with the transitions and the progression notes, the harmonies….they all slammed it on TD!

[@selena___]

So cool that 6 members from the original Tenessee Kids were there includig music director Adam Blackstone. This was such an exciting performance especially for those of us who remember some of these tracks from when they were first released.

[@martinplaybook]

rock your body was done by the Neptunes (it was originally offered to MJ but he passed on it)

[@fayesouthall6604]

Neptunes all over his first album

[@martinplaybook]

@@fayesouthall6604 absolutely

[@dannyblau3850]

Fun side note story to this I had heard in a Pharrell interview. It was actually MJ's people that passed without it ever reaching MJ himself. MJ apparently was NOT happy they did that and after the record was out literally called up Pharrell during a session he was having him and like..acapella just sang him the songs over the phone haha

[@heartstrings110]

By the way, ‘Selfish’ sounds completely different in the record. This is a scaled down acoustic approach of the song because of where it fits in the set, perhaps.

[@tamarawhiteurst8727]

Yes he has done it by himself, the Super Bowl.

Rock Your Body was actually The Neptunes, even though Timbaland had a hand in his debut solo album Justified, where the song was is from. Pusher Love Girl is one of my fave JT songs. It’s off the 20/20 album. ❤

[@silviaileana3140]

Everyone amazed how great he sings but this is the way he is at his concerts 😅 He sounds better live 😊

[@jiggetyjes]

Lmao “shaking them thangs” is keeping the beat, much like the drummer with the full percussion set. That’s why he’s so serious 😂

Crazy to me how people have either convinced themselves Justin is in talented or they have forgotten how unbelievably talented he is. Rock Your body wasn't a little club hit, it was a top five hit and his biggest crossover hit. Push Your Love was debuted on the Grammys and it was the first song on his third album the 20/20 experience. Please tell me you've listened to it If not shut the channel down and tell you get your life right 🤣. Seriously get your life right If you've heard that album you know that song.
