Groovevolt.com reports Justin Timberlake explained why his debut album ‘Justified’ came about during *NSYNC’s downtime. “I wasn’t consciously trying to make a non-*NSYNC record,” he says “I was trying to make a multi-dimensional record; a record that captured the vibe of my favorite time in music, the 60s. For the six weeks that we worked on these songs, I got to live in my own musical dream world and play a little hip-hop, a little old-school R&B, and a little classic rock. It was so much fun, and I learned a lot about making music in a totally different way then I’m used to.”
