    The best bits - Midnight Summer Jam, Breeze Off The Pond, Livin Off The Land - are right up there with the best things he's ever done.

    MOTW revisita o melhor do passado, você vai lembrar de MJ, Prince, Amy Winehouse, Daft Punk, Bee Gees, Marvin Gaye. JT mistura elementos da sua Terra Natal com sons da atualidade. Fantástico.

    The album revisits the best of the past of the song. Timberlake manages to unite element of its roots with current sons and this is Fantastic.

    Haters gonna say it's fake... But he did save the music... Again! Trying to merge the past traditional music with a modern sound was a brilliant idea, risky but worth it. You can tell he's in a different place right now.

    Edgy and eclectic, Man of the wood, just like its first single tends to be more appreciated over time. The country vibe is there but so is the futurist r'n'b. Timberlake is now a proud father but still got what it takes to bring the sexyback.

    Um ótimo álbum, com influências country o "Man Of The Woods" é uma mistura de country e uma sonoridade pop moderna e futurista que somente o JT consegue fazer. Um álbum com uma sonoridade única.

    Um album realmente fincado em raizes. Um grande trabalho, que merece mais reconhecimento.

    I loved it! Tracks like Say something and Morning light may be introducing the trend of soulful pop country music back into the music industry

    Yet another amazing album by Timberlake, his first in over 4 years and he still delivers. The album is really solid and there are no skips. The highlights of this album are definitely Breeze Off The Pond and Morning Light with Alicia Keys.

    " I guess I got my swagger back" that's just what JT means with this AOTY. So Real

    Álbum que passeia por diversos gêneros musicais, desde ao folk até o trap! Justin Timberlake é um artista completo, melhor artista da atualidade sem dúvida. Não tem medo de arriscar, de inovar e de ir contra a música radiofônica que temos hoje, ganhamos mais um álbum atemporal e incrível.

    This album is extremely well mixed. Timberlake visited many genres and did well in all of them. I don't get all this hate for him. He is a hard worker music, and as always, gave us quality music. He isn't just an pop singer. This album is fantastic.

    Mais uma vez o príncipe do pop nos mostra o futuro. Enquanto alguns preferem o caminho mais fácil, JT prefere ousar e fazer algo diferente.

    Justin had the courage to show off his true origins in the field and show what he really is. It clearly did not come to please the media with urban clothes and a sexy style. Justin shows his family side and the musicality is incredible. It has united various styles of the American interior with an urban and modern touch.

    I think Justin may have made a misstep by releasing the promo video he did right after the first of the year because now everyone (including me) expected a "woodsy", acoustic, more country-leaning album. And it is not. I think that is the main reason people had problems with Filthy when it was released as the first single, because people didn't think it fit into the box they wereI think Justin may have made a misstep by releasing the promo video he did right after the first of the year because now everyone (including me) expected a "woodsy", acoustic, more country-leaning album. And it is not. I think that is the main reason people had problems with Filthy when it was released as the first single, because people didn't think it fit into the box they were expecting. Free from the binds of the "Man of the Woods" vibe that everyone expected, Filthy is actually a banger. I can't not dance when I listen to it. Now that I've heard the whole album, I think it is a great piece of work... but just much different that what everyone was expecting (and some, hoping). The duets with Alicia Keys and Chris Stapleton are both solid. I think other standout tracks from the album are "Higher Higher", "Young Man" and the title track "Man of the Woods".… Expand

    Although he’s not really mixing musical genres as originally promised, he’s mixing up some music and lyrics that shouldn’t really go together, which makes this one crazy peanut butter cup of an album.

    Man of the Woods is not an outright disaster but it is a significant disappointment--a record too preoccupied with image, volte face and forced “REAL” to fully engage as a coherent piece of craftsmanship.

    Throughout, Man Of The Woods seesaws brilliantly between pop and country. [Apr 2018, p.116]
