saw that Justin Timberlake show and it was just ok
all the hype surrounding Justin Timberlake and it was a real average show to me. yeah he was standing in front of a piano playing and strumming some guitar chords but what was he trying to Prove? He was singing and dancing but what did he Prove again? HBO had this show on for 2 and a half hours and alot of it was grandstanding. Timberlake wants to be a Modern day Michael Jackson but he has along ways to go. selling alot of records and having alot of flash isn't gonna make you anywhere near close to being in the same sentence with the King of Pop. I was watching a Artist in Timberlake that had the flash, top set Band and dancers and everything else was in place in Madison Square Garden in New York,New York to be a night of a triumph,but the star on the stage didn't command nothing. he didn't have that "IT" that SuperStars are made of. He seemed to be trying to channel all of his influences but he couldn't set that stage on fire which Michael Jackson did some 19 years ago. i saw a act that can be polished and has some chops but doesn't connect in a way to match the hype surrounding his being and that is the Hype factor that so badly wants that modern day Michael Jackson.people want that Artist that trandsends the music world at large. the thing is it takes time to get where Michael Jackson got and a glossy concert on HBO and a backup band of Black Musicians,Singers and Dancers ain't gonna make you down because Justin Timberlake is far from there.if you are like me you want Michael Jackson to come back one more time to show this kid and other cats just how it is suppose to be done by a Pro.
