With the length of a JT song, you can shower, brush your teeth, eat breakfast and go for a jog and the song still wouldn't be over. The latest new single to debut off his upcoming album goes by the name 'TKO', which is 7-minutes long.
The urban break-up anthem is a collaboration with frequent partner-in-crime Timbaland, which is driven by a thumping beat, bass heavy synths, and a beatbox interlude. Although the production is classic Timbaland, this sounds like a boring 'FutureSex/LoveSounds' leftover. I hate to say it but this era has been such a huge letdown for me. I feel his work with Timbaland is starting to sound too repetitive and samey. I wish he partnered with Pharrell again or hooked himself up with some new producers. He does not need Timbaland. His name alone would sell him regardless of who he hooks up with in the future.
