Justin Timberlake’s upcoming new album
The tour announcement and release of “Selfish” combines with Timberlake revealing news of the release of his sixth solo album, “Everything I Thought It Was.” The album, due out March 15, is Timberlake’s first new music since 2018’s “Man of the Woods.”
Timberlake made the announcement about the upcoming album while performing a free one-night-only concert at the Orpheum in his hometown of Memphis, Tennessee, on Jan. 19, according to the Memphis Commercial Appeal. The show was about 90 minutes and featured his 11-piece “Tennessee Kids” backup band “in an unusually intimate and meaningful setting,” the Memphis outlet explained in its coverage. About 1,500 people were in attendance.
Timberlake performed “Selfish” during an appearance on NBC’s “Saturday Night Live” over the weekend. He served as the episode’s musical guest and appeared in the monologue and one of the sketches with Fallon and host Dakota Johnson.
