Justin Timberlake cleans up in 'Suit & Tie' videoJustin Timberlake is serious about his style, and the new lyrics video for his single, "Suit & Tie," is proof. The song, written by Timberlake and Jay-Z along with Timbaland, Jerome “J-ROC” Harmon and James Flauntleroy, is a playful offering of an elevated experience to a love interest.
Timberlake plays the "suit and tied" gentleman in the clip, which uses animation to emphasize the horns on the track as the lyrics bounce across the frame. Conceptually, it sounds like it could be an eyesore, but the production is as sharp and seamless as Timberlake's wardrobe in the video. If you've heard the song, the lead single from his upcoming album "The 20/20 Experience," you know that the lyrics aren't nearly as clean as the singer's accessories, so if you watch the clip below be forewarned that it contains strong language. "Suit & Tie" has been performing well since Timberlake released the song earlier this month. Billboard reports the single is now at No. 4 on the Hot 100, and it's at No. 2 on the Digital Songs chart with 315,000 downloads in its first week. |

Justin, get your OWN sock signature! kthxbye!
balcony–your a putz
Jay-Z's section is the only redeeming part of this terrible song.
Wow Wee. A song with and electronic beat and a catchy phrase" suit and tie" repeated several times and in the middle a guest rapper (Jay-Z) used as a time filler. Followed by more "suit and tie". I'm not what everyone calls a hater, I'm just tired of the same old crap.
1 ringie dingie 2 ringie dingie 3 ringie dingie....
Cool to see how Justin Timberlake rips off Michael Jacksons style re: the white socks, high pants and same shoes
well alright!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
parade will be there ...yes!!!!
in town....house down!!!--yay seniors!!!
justin is number 1 and a key to bringing a house down where he lives...
yes justing m.
times yet...
Complete garbage. Between the profanity and the poor grammar this is a joke.
how could he do this too me....
only 4 writers for this song? must have gotten lazy
now i know my abc's next time won't you DRINK A SCOTCH WITH ME..
I absolutely LOVED Justin's new song. Every song that was ever written has been loved by some and hated by others. You either like them or you don't. There are some songs that I hate that were considerd to be the greatest songs ever written. I don't care....that still doesn't make me like them or even appreciate them.
As the old woman said when she kissed the cow..."It's just a matter of taste."
I still think Justin has terrific talent and I don't care whether you or any of the music critics do or don't. It makes no diference to me.
will remain with brandi as long as SHE remains with us
The song sucks! I love Justin Timberlake and am VERY disappointed!
leave people alone.
Reblogged this on vinylphishrecords and commented:
Coming in March. DOPE!
AND GO PRES....SHE'S A RACIST TRYING TOO MAKE MADONNA LOOK LIKE SHE IS....
that's your management sweetie.
Forgettable garbage.
For all you numb nutz haters.......did you read the article?.....the song is doing quite well.......your petty comments just make you sad little people and evidently a poor judge of succes.
Another song that will be forgotten in the musics anal of time.
...the what of time??
you are so rights
Worst song he's ever recorded and Jay-Z, to me, still cannot write a song I'm remotely interested in. Rap or otherwise.
I thought the song was alright. Jay-Z knows what he is doing. However, this isn't a hit. Not by a mile. But I think it is good.
i have my business card with me...see you shortly.
This is a highly stylized video. The boys got some snazz bout him. I loved the video. he should venture out into design, I loved everything in the video, the clothes, It was cool.
Doesn't anyone know how to use the English language anymore...
You don't know how to use punctuation.
Just another white boy tryin to be black. Boring. Snooze. What's up with all these Jay-Z wannabes?
I could of won the Tour-de-France in a suit and tie with all the ROIDS I took.
It's time to pelt this pretty boy with a barrage of stink nuggets.
If anything he's long over due for a stink nugget pelting.
Let's make him dance!
If he is singing as you throw your excretions at him, one of the pieces risks landing in his mouth as he sings a long high note. If the feces were to mix with his digestive fluids it could cause him to become ill for several days.
And the down side to that would be???
can't wait to see the video
NEITHER DOES MADONNA.....BUSINESS AS USUAL
this is horrible!!!!!!!!!
disgusting----BUSINESS AS USUAL THIS WEEKEND...the bourbons...
Timberlame, has always been a hack, from the start. A disney pop defect.
don't get upset again...forge ahead...
for this evening....we had a meeting and its time too let people know whats going on - you've backed him up enough.
get into the drive so we can show all tonight...
Had to mute it after 15 seconds. When did Timberlake become Jay-Z's bit@h?
at "that" house....we don't want uninvited visitors to show up. the public should have left oprah alone.
Get rid of the first 50 seconds and it's great.
Get rid of the first 5:26 and it would be great!
at "that" house....we don't want uninvited visitors to show up. Oprah's rainy days will be ending soon...
It took five people to write that mediocre song? Wow.
What an empty nothing of a song. Terrible. Expect better from Timberlake. This has no class.
we can wave to the TV also...she'll be right there....there a bunch of vids this way we can finally show you what
gaga is all about...she'll be able too see who's in my living room –we'll give her a huge wave of honor.

gaga's videos....she looks like Nikki
tree photographs framed prints
yet does NOT wantyou around...she's disgusting...we cant' stand her–she is a poor representation in business and a poor example to justin....
Great visuals. Too bad for the breaking glass at the end–it cheapens the whole deal.
Intro and bridge sound like a parody. All in all, it's nice to bring some glamor and elegance back.
is use to being hated.
video sucks ....we've seen you jess....your NOT ALL THAT...
Blooorkksshftttpp !!! Fheettppurrrpfffttp... scchhllleeyaa ? * drool *

ABUSIVE UGLY BEETCH
Justin T , i am glad he is not activing anymore, he was really a bad actor and as a singer he is just ok.
WANTS TO FOLLOW YET DOES NOT WANT YOUR PRESENCE-WE HATE JUSTINE TIMBERLAKE....
SKIPPY IS JUST SKIPPY...WILL WATCH THE INSULTS TOWARDS MADONNA TODAY
He needs to quit singing and stick to acting. He is also one off the best guest hosts I've seen on SNL. Very good with comedy.
IS IN A DAZE–CRAPY VIDEO, CRAP MOVIE , CRAPPY EVERYTHING. SICK OF THIS PRAISING OF THIS MORON
DOES'NT WANT YOU THERE....TELL EVERYBODY YOU KNOW WHAT THE FK IS HAPPENING...
THAT'S WHAT WE THINK...WE HAVE HAD ENUFF OF IT....UNPROFESSIONALISM AT ITS BEST....
I'M HERE ALL DAY...THANKS.
jesus cnn, THIS IS NOT NEWS! This is an advertisement for a pop albumb/artist and i use the term "artist" extremly loosely......their iraq and afghanistan and a million more important things to report on. Leave the celebrity gossip and entertainment news to tmz and people mag, etc.....what a joke....did his record company pay you to "report" this? the song sux so bad btw.
moron dont you see where it says entertainment. afghan and Iraq stuff dont belong on a entertainment section what entertaining about that?
but does not want me around.....get the drift ladies?
...and Michael Jackson shoes...
i love when the temp speeds up–best part of the song.
this vid and wordvomit is tired old suit tied,.... Flush
I I have to admit my first reaction to the early part of the song was "This stinks." But it improves when the tempo speeds up.a
dying too see the video.
That new JT video is terrible and so is the song. I don't get it. We've come to expect awesome things from JT and this is a let down.
LOVE it
