Justin Timberlake Quiz: Guess the Song & Test Your Trivia

A Justin Timberlake quiz turns on two questions: can you name the track, and can you name who built the beat under it. Guess the Justin Timberlake song from 'SexyBack' and 'Cry Me a River' to 'Mirrors', 'Suit & Tie' and 'Can't Stop the Feeling!', then test your trivia on the era tell: the Neptunes' clipped funk of 'Like I Love You' against Timbaland's stutter on 'My Love' and 'LoveStoned', plus a 'Holy Grail' hook for Jay-Z. Telling Neptunes funk from a Timbaland stutter is the real test.

'SexyBack', his 2006 comeback single, was produced with Timbaland and Danja and topped the Billboard Hot 100 for seven weeks, and Timberlake sings most of it in a low, filtered register rather than his trademark falsetto.
His 2002 debut Justified was largely built by The Neptunes and Timbaland, the same producers who defined early-2000s radio, which is why several of its tracks share their fingerprint.
'Can't Stop the Feeling!', recorded for the 2016 animated film Trolls, debuted at number one on the Billboard Hot 100 and is one of his few smashes not shaped by Timbaland or the Neptunes.
Before going solo he was the breakout voice of NSYNC, and as a child he appeared on The All-New Mickey Mouse Club alongside Britney Spears and Christina Aguilera.
He has headlined the Super Bowl halftime show twice and won ten Grammy Awards, and fans often note that 'What Goes Around... Comes Around' plays like a sequel to 'Cry Me a River', both Timbaland productions about betrayal.

The inescapable singles (where casual fans score)

If you owned a radio in the 2000s, these are your points: 'SexyBack', 'Cry Me a River', 'Rock Your Body', 'Mirrors' and 'Can't Stop the Feeling!'. Most players name them from the opening bars, so they are the free points at the top of any Justin Timberlake quiz.

Neptunes funk vs Timbaland stutter (where it gets tricky)

His solo run is two production camps trading off, and that is the real test. 'Like I Love You' and 'Senorita' carry the Neptunes' clipped guitar and handclaps, while 'My Love', 'LoveStoned' and 'What Goes Around... Comes Around' ride Timbaland's beatbox and stutter. Two hits, one voice, two very different beats.

Off the Timbaland grid (the curveballs)

The trickiest questions leave his own albums. Timberlake sings the hook on Jay-Z's 'Holy Grail', trades verses with Madonna on '4 Minutes' and with T.I. on 'Dead and Gone', and duets with a posthumous Michael Jackson on 'Love Never Felt So Good'. No signature beat to lean on, just the falsetto.

The 20/20 and Man of the Woods deep cuts (where superfans pull ahead)

Past the singles, the diehards separate on album tracks: the layered 'Pusher Love Girl' and 'Tunnel Vision' from The 20/20 Experience, the Chris Stapleton duet 'Say Something' and the stripped 'Filthy' from Man of the Woods. Catch these from a short clip and no producer twist on the Justin Timberlake quiz will shake you.

Perguntas frequentes

Which Justin Timberlake songs are in the quiz?

Expect the singles everyone knows, 'SexyBack', 'Cry Me a River', 'Mirrors', 'Rock Your Body' and 'Can't Stop the Feeling!', plus producer-tell deep cuts like 'LoveStoned' and 'Suit & Tie' that separate the superfans.

How hard is the Justin Timberlake quiz?

The hit singles are easy points. The trap is that his solo run splits between Neptunes funk and Timbaland's stutter, so two songs from the same voice can sound like different artists until the falsetto comes in.

Can you guess a Justin Timberlake song from the beat alone?

Often, yes. Timbaland's beatbox and the Neptunes' clipped funk are as recognizable as his vocals, so on 'My Love' or 'Like I Love You' the production gives the answer away before the chorus lands.

What is Justin Timberlake's real name and where is he from?

His full name is Justin Randall Timberlake. He was born on January 31, 1981, in Memphis, Tennessee, and grew up in nearby Millington.

Is the Justin Timberlake quiz free?
