Justin Timberlake has confirmed he is working on a new album.

“Back in those days, like, they would release songs from the soundtrack first, and I feel like the songs were such a part of the DNA of those movies, too”, Timberlake stated.
This is one of three original songs the showman has provided for the film; the soundtrack will also include a duet with co-star Kendrick on Cyndi Lauper track “True Colours”.
“Can’t Stop the Feeling” is available for purchase on iTunes, and it’s also already been added to Spotify for those who don’t feel like shelling out $1.29.
Timberlake, 35, has also been an active actor, playing roles in films such as the Facebook drama The Social Network and Inside Llewyn Davis, the Coen Brothers’ dark take on a struggling folk singer.
Earlier this week Justin Timberlake announced he’d be releasing his first new song in more than three years.
He wrote and produced Can’t Stop The Feeling with Swedish hit makers Max Martin and Shellback, who both worked on Taylor Swift’s hit album 1989.
The pop star released a visual for the upbeat hit which features the cast members from his forthcoming Dreamworks’ film, Trolls, including Gwen Steani, James Corden and Anna Kendrick.
Looks like we can look forward to a summer’s worth of new Timberlake songs!
“Can’t Stop the Feeling”, though composed for an animated children’s film, still delivers on Timberlake’s usual infectious catchiness and vocal range, reminiscent of Pharrell Williams’ “Happy” penned for “Despicable Me 2”.
But that’s not all that Timberlake has in store for his fans.

Called “Can’t Stop the Feeling”, the track is an uptempo jam that is going to be everywhere in literally…oh, by tomorrow morning.
