IamChromatica 2,025 Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 "Justin Timberlake isn't the sharpest tool in the shed. This is just common knowledge—something the pop star doesn't have. Because if he did have it, he wouldn't have signed off on the atrocity of a music video that popped up online early Thursday. In it, Justin is shown sitting in front of a plethora of glitchy televisions, watching screens that show coverage of the #MeToo movement, Harvey Weinstein, Trump, and police brutality. What does a song ostensibly about sex, with some shallow lyrics about the end of the world, have to do with extremely necessary movements sweeping across the nation? The most sense I can make of this, is this is Justin's attempt to reconnect with his old friend, relevancy." "The nonsensical clip mashes up dystopic images into mush: Timberlake staring at TV screens plastered with topical villains and violence; Timberlake walking through what looks like a Matrix **** spoof; Timberlake crashing a group of grey sheeple praying to the almighty dollar; Timberlake waking up in Blade Runner 2049’s orange hellscape with a cute kid who tells us to “die already.” It is the hashtag-baiting fever dream nobody asked for—ridiculous at best, offensively trivializing at worst. This thing twists meaningful resistance into a hollow caricature that diminishes the very idea of protest. Yes, the world is a terrible place. But Justin Timberlake’s woke-pop brain farts will not save us." https://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/justin-timberlake-supplies-music-video_us_5a60ac1be4b01b82649d2522 "Justin Timberlake Tries To Convince You He’s Woke In ‘Supplies’ Music Video “Tries” being the operative word. Timberlake, whose politics have been somewhat of a grab bag lately, positions himself as some sort of resistance fighter, as he steps out into a post-apocalyptic world populated by creepy cult-like members, alligators and, yes, Pharrell. To absolutely no one’s surprise, reaction was swift on social media, with many people expressing some confusion over the new “woke” Timberlake." https://nypost.com/2018/01/18/watch-justin-timberlake-try-and-fail-to-be-woke-in-new-music-video/ "Watch Justin Timberlake try — and fail — to be woke in new music video" https://www.fuse.tv/2018/01/justin-timberlake-supplies-video "Man of the Woods' isn't turning out to be very woodsy at all with its latest video painted with confusing, conflicting imagery" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryusei 61,034 Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 why can't singers just stay in their lane, just stop. You can be political on your social media if you feel like it but miss me with that **** in music... Also after seeing those 2 songs so far I am also questioning what this has to do with a man in the woods... Musery Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
