Justin Timberlake Performs for NPR’s Tiny Desk Concert Series

R&B

Justin Timberlake visited NPR’s headquarters in Washington, D.C., to perform for its Tiny Desk Concert Series.

The music star was joined by a full band and background singers, including Kenyon Dixon and RaVaughn.

Timberlake kicked off his mesmerizing 25-minute set with his 2003 single “Señorita,” then transitioned to “Rock Your Body,” both of which are from his debut solo album, Justified.

He performed some of his other beloved throwbacks, like 2013’s “Pusher Lover Girl” and 2006’s “Until the End of Time,” before giving the audience a taste of his new album, Everything I Thought It Was, out now, with its lead single “Selfish.” 

Timberlake closed out his set with an electrifying rendition of his No. 1 hit “SexyBack,” where he opted to sing through a megaphone.

Timberlake released his sixth album, Everything I Thought It Was, on Friday (March 15). The 18-track offering includes features from *NSYNC, Tobe Nwigwe and Fireboy DML. 

“This album is a culmination of where I’ve been and where I’m going – and I’m so grateful and nervous and excited to put it out into the world for you all,” Timberlake wrote on Instagram

Timberlake will support Everything I Thought It Was on his Forget Tomorrow World Tour. The first North American leg begins April 29 at Rogers Arena in Vancouver, British Columbia. From there, Timberlake will make stops in Seattle, Las Vegas, Atlanta, Chicago, Baltimore and more.

On July 26, he will launch the Europe/U.K. leg in Kraków, Poland. Timberlake will spend the rest of the summer performing in Berlin, London, Amsterdam, and more before launching the second North American leg on Oct. 4 in Montreal, Quebec.
