Roberta Flack Denies Griping About Justin Timberlake
Michael Musto of the Village Voice reports Roberta Flack was recently overheard at a gym, bemoaning the fact that *NSYNC star Justin Timberlake got such a big push to solo stardom and a Boyz II Men member who she feels is immensely talented didn’t. “That’s how they treat us,” griped Roberta. But Flack later contacted Musto to insist the item wasn’t true, and insisted she hardly talks at the gym at all. But Musto’s source insisted the story was true, and that she talks quite a bit at the gym.
that’s true. every member of Boys II Men is, even on their worst day, a better singer than Justin Timberlake.
i kinda agree……boyz II men are better singers than Justin. but you can’t blame Justin for someone else’s career. that’s just being jealous and ignorant. I don’t even think they’re on the same label anyways.
I like Justin and all…but Boyz II Men is one of the greatest vocal groups ever! I wish they’d come out with something new. OH…and did anyone see when Justin won the best pop video at the VMAs?? Mary-Kate and Ashley…and David Spade I think…presented the award and when they were handing it to him, he quickly grabbed it and just ran to the podium without any acknowledgement towards them. I thought that was EXTREMELY rude…
Yeah, Justin didn’t even acknowledge the twins’ presence. And if you looks closely enough, you can see one of them(the one that was holding the moon man, but I don’t know which twin it was) turn to the other and shrug. That was very rude on Justin’s part, and I was a bit surprised because he’s usually very well-mannered.
Justin Timberlake doesn’t have to be a better singer than the member of Boys to Men in fact he is not even trying to be a better singer than them. Justin Timberlake can sing. The kid has talent. Boys to Men were one of the many R&B artist singing praises about N’sync. Both member of N’sync and Boys to Men has talent it doesn’t matter who is the better singer.
She said it and it’s what the public feels. BoyzIImen have great harmony and great voices. Justin has a good falsetto voice. It’s not powerful, or above-average but it’s good. It’s the good-old blue eye soul thing. America loves the white boy who sounds black, like Elvis (except he didn’t have soul to me). It will be cool for a while and then like Hall and Oates, George Michael, the public will turn on him for being fake. It always happens.
