Pop singer and former NSYNC boy bander Justin Timberlake has gone digital with the announcement of the 18-song tracklist for his forthcoming release Everything I Thought It Was, which was broadcast on top of The Reef in downtown Los Angeles on March 4.
Speaking of NSYNC, it appears confirmed that his former bandmates – JC Chavez, Joey Fatone, Chris Kirkpatrick and Lance Bass – have contributed to one track on the album, "Paradise." This reveal comes on the heels of months of speculation as to whether the group was making any further plans for music past "Better Place," which was included in last year's animated film Trolls Band Together, and their first new music since 2001's Celebrity.

In addition to an NSYNC reunion, Timberlake has two other collabs. "Liar" teams Timberlake with singer Fireboy DML. The Nigerian native, who describes his sound as "Afro-Lite," saw his last release "Coming Back For You" included on 2022's Black Panther: Wakanda Forever soundtrack. Rapper, singer and actor Tobe Nwigwe is featured on "Sanctified," which had its preview/premiere when he joined Timberlake onstage during a Saturday Night Live performance on January 27.

Previously released singles "Selfish" and "Drown" are listed, of course, as well as "Memphis," an apparent nod to Timberlake's hometown, "F**kin' Up the Disco," "No Angels," "Play," "Technicolor," "Infinity Sex," "Love & War," "My Favorite Drug," "Flame," "Imagination," "What Lovers Do," "Alone" and "Conditions."
While going on a promotional and publicity tear across the U.S. playing one-off gigs in Memphis and New York City, Timberlake had to cancel a gig at the Camden in London on February 23 due to the flu. The forthcoming Forget Tomorrow World tour in support of the album will kick off in April in North America and, as Timberlake noted in a social media post, "When I said WORLD tour, I meant it," his team subsequently announced a 13-date pan-European run of shows in July, August and September.
Everything I Thought I Was is Timberlake’s sixth studio album, and the follow-up to Man of the Woods, which peaked at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 following its release in February 2018.
