Justin Timberlake Says His Record Is ‘Something Different’ From Nick’s

Teen People asked *NSYNC star Justin Timberlake if he felt any competition towards his Backstreet Boys rival Nick Carter, as both prep to release their debut solo albums. “Oh totally! [laughs] I’m kidding. I don’t feel competition. I heard [Nick's single] ‘Help Me’, and I think it’s a great song. People are ready to hear a new Bryan Adams. My record is something different- I wanted to change what people were listening to. If you were 16 or 17 when *NSYNC came out, you are probably 21 or 22 now. I know the kids are going to dig [my music], because it’s a new sound.”
