NEW YORK - Pop superstar Justin Timberlake on Wednesday announced his first album in nearly five years, promising more personal songwriting inspired by his home and family. The 36-year-old singer and actor said that Man of the Woods, his fifth solo studio album, will come out on Feb. 2 - two days before he headlines entertainment during the Super Bowl, generally the most watched television event of the year in the United States. Timberlake unveiled the album with a short video on social media that, true to the album's title, shows him walking reflectively in scenes of nature from a snowy forest to a sunny corn field. This album is really inspired by my son, my wife, my family, but - more so than any other album I've ever written - where I'm from, Timberlake says in the video. And it's personal. Timberlake - who had a son in 2015 with his wife, actress Jessica Biel - grew up near Memphis, Tennessee, one of the capitals of blues and soul music as well as rural-rooted country. The video features snippets of acoustic guitar, hinting perhaps at a more somber sound for the album, but closes with Timberlake in the studio with all-star pop producer Pharrell Williams. Timberlake has focused increasingly on acting rather than music in the past several years, most recently starring as a bookish and seductive lifeguard in Woody Allen's Wonder Wheel. - AFP
