NOTE: I will more than likely miss instances of teasing or JT6 acknowledgments that occured before mid-late 2023.

What the status of the new album you've been recording with Justin Timberlake?

We just finished up and everything sounds great. Now it's really on him how and when he envisions it to come out, but it's done and it's coming.

 

What does it sound like?
 

It's fun Justin — it's like [their 2006 blockbuster collaboration] "FutureSex/LoveSounds" but nothing too heavy, just giving you what you expect from us. Music is a young sport — of course, we've both seen a lot of life, but you have to bring out the 13 year old kid again, you know? We had songs that maybe were too complicated, so we said we want it to feel like "FutureSex" part two, so we did songs that will fit that.
