Clearly, you simply want to argue with me just to argue.
1. So, let's do some math, shall we? Justin Tiimberlake was born on January 31, 1981. His last birthday was on January 31, 2011, which makes him 30. A denotative definition of a thirty-something is:

Now, calling me "petty" is not going to change the fact that Justin Timberlake is a thirty-something.
2. See definition of mediocre,
add below, and it still does not mean talentless. The words are not interchangeable. Justin Timberlake has the talent to sing, but his voice is below mediocre.
3. I live in a world where reading with comprehension can do wonders. Anyway, I never said that artists do not use major producers. I said that major artists do not
rely on them. Those are two separate ideas. There are exceptions, such as a Britney Spears or Katy Perry. Then again, how many casual listeners know a Max Martin, for example? Compare that to Timbaland.
In addition, I said that Justin Timberlake relied on Timbaland, who was the hottest producer at the time. Timberlake's working with Timbaland increased his chances of success as Timberlake was working with a producer who is on many people's minds anyway.
It's smart, but it's kind of like getting a cheap win in a fight.
4. I want proof of that outfit as far as Janet's concerned. Even if that were the case, a whole album was not constructed around her wearing that alleged outfit. Janet still had her own image, separate from Michael Jackson. She did not perform for a year with the similar outfits to her brother, Michael Jackson.
5. Here are the lyrics to the chorus of
Kiss by
Prince:
You don't have to be rich
To be my girl
You don't have 2 be cool
To rule my world
Ain't no particular sign I'm more compatible with
I just want your extra time and your
Kiss
Here's a video, you know, just in case I'm bsing:

Now, compare those lyrics with Justin Timberlake's:
What goes around, goes around, goes around
Comes all the way back around
What goes around, goes around, goes around
Comes all the way back around
What goes around, goes around, goes around
Comes all the way back around
What goes around, goes around, goes around
Comes all the way back around
Repetitive? Check. Trite, unoriginal phrase? Check.
6. It's a fan club thread? Silly me. I thought the title of the thread simply said Justin Timberlake (merged). He's cute, if that makes you feel any better.
I said there were two other guys. Also, you resorted to ad hominems with me. I believe you are going off topic, and the topic should be Justin Timberlake, not my level of intelligence: "
Your stupid"as you so accurately described me.
As for MJ, he also had John Bettis, Steve Porcaro, Rod Temperton as well as several others who produced his albums. I mean, if we're going to quote facts and all...
