Justin Timberlake has already had what would be an awesome year for the average musician. Yet for Timberlake, a multiplatinum-selling album and a nationwide sold out tour isn’t enough for one year. Timberlake is gearing up for round two, releasing a new single “T.K.O.” from his second album of the year, “The 20/20 Experience –  2 of 2.” As reported by mtv.com:

“[Justin] unleashed his T.K.O. song, #4 on his The 20/20 Experience – 2 of 2 track list. Hours after the initial tease, the track was finally available for fans to stream on his website — just in time for the album’s September 30 release.

“And Timberlake wasn’t lying when he said that this album would be ‘more dangerous’ than part 1 of the 20/20 Experience, as evidenced by T.K.O. The track is a Timberlake/Timbaland joint, with signature bleepy production and dark undertones, a far cry from the album’s lead single, upbeat throwback jam “Take Back the Night.”

Timberlake’s “20/20 Experience – 2 of 2” is scheduled to be released on September 30th and hopes to be as successful as the first volume, which had the best first week sales debut of the year according to Neilsen Soundscan.

Check out “T.K.O.” below.

Democracy needs journalism it can trust.

This election season, the stakes are higher than usual — and so is the pressure on newsrooms to soften their coverage, stay quiet, or just disappear. Independent reporting, the kind that answers to readers instead of advertisers or political pressure, matters more in a moment like this, not less.

For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed independent and reader-funded. We have no corporate owner and no shareholders telling us what to cover or how to cover it. That independence is also our biggest vulnerability: nothing protects it except readers choosing to fund it directly.

Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under in a moment like this, it's rarely the independent, reader-funded ones that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
