Mirrion Rizzons 9,929 Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 I mean he's a massive icon but 20/20 did surprisingly well (debuted with 968,000 copies on the h100) considering FutureSex/LoveSounds came out 7 years before I mean he did have some collabs between the two album cycles but how did he come back so strong after his acting phase? If gaga waited 7 years to release an album that's like her releasing born this way in 2011 then waiting til 2018 to release ARTPOP is it because he's such an icon that everyone was excited for his comeback? Is it because he was still young? (he was 32 at the time, considering ageism doesn't affect men nearly as much as women in the industry) I need answers I mean I'm a lowkey Stan so I understand why people like him but I'm surprised no one forgot about him like they did xtina Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CyanLights 15,258 Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 I think it was because JT ended on a high note with FutureSex/LoveSounds and it was a hyped return that went smoothly. The music was also really good. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
rumours 45,521 Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 He did have 6 Top 10 songs from 2007-2013 (if you exclude the singles from his album), which is a fair amount. It’s also worth noting that The Social Network, Bad Teacher, Friends with Benefits, and In Time were all movies released between his two album cycles. All of that on top of the hype around new music (imo) led to a successful era with 20/20. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

zakariah 11,556 Posted November 20, 2018 Share Posted November 20, 2018 everything from that era was amazingly executed, & the music was excellent (at least for Part 1, imo ) plus, it didn't hurt that suit & tie featured another huge artist that was making a solo comeback, jay-z. and MTV gave him the video vanguard award & he brought NSYNC back for that too. Spoiler I honestly think that the fact that he released a part 2 of the 20/20 experience hurt his grammys chances, that's why he didn't get nominated for AOTY Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

River 90,953 Posted November 20, 2018 Share Posted November 20, 2018 He was still on SNL and was like sturday's sweetheart and he did a surprise comeback so the gp supported him + S&T was another straight male anthem so it was successful.. on another note, did you see the recent pic that floated online of his Timber? Je ne parle pas français but I can padam if you like Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damon 10,896 Posted November 20, 2018 Share Posted November 20, 2018 Hmm he was on SNL and the hype for the album was REAL plus the music was way better than motw, not saying this album it's bad but 20/20 is justin's magnum opus imo ... and now i just sit in silence.
