Are you ready for Justin Timberlake new single? The multi-talented artist is back with a new surprising song: “Filthy”.
The electro-funk track was written by his longtime partner collaborator Timbaland with Danja, James Fauntleroy and Lawrence Dopson.
The music video shows Justin as an inventor, inspired by Steve Jobs, introducing his latest creation: a robot able to follow his movements.
It was directed by Mark Romanek, who also directed the former ‘NSync member’s previously music video “Cant’t stop the feeling“.
“Filthy” is the first official cut to be lifted from his fourth studio album “Man of the woods”, which arrives February 2, two days before Timberlake performs at the Super Bowl LII Halftime Show on Feb. 4. The new record features Timbaland, Pharrell Williams’ the Neptunes, Alicia Keys, and country singer Chris Stapleton.
In the next weeks, Timberlake will drop three additional videos following “Filthy”. Each visual will have its own “individual style and color from three different directors,” according to a press release.
Lyrics:
Hey
If you know what’s good
(If you know what’s good)
If you know what’s good
(If you know what’s good)
Hey, if you know what’s good

All my haters gon’ say it’s fake
I guess I got my swagger back
I said, put your filthy hands all over me
And no, this ain’t the clean version
And what you gonna do with all that meat?
Cookin’ up a mean servin’
No question, I want it
Fire up, everybody smokin’
Your friends, my friends
And they ain’t leavin’ till six in the morning (six in the morning)
Caught a chill, baby, you the coldest
Go far, put ’em on notice
If you know what I want, then yeah
Baby, don’t you mind if I do, yeah
Exactly what you like times two, yeah
Got me singin’, “ooh, ooh”
So baby, don’t you mind if I do
Look, put your filthy hands all over me
And no, this ain’t the clean version
And what you gonna do with all that beast?
When I leave the cage open
Huh, walk to me, uh
No question, I want it
Fire up, everybody smokin’
Your friends, my friends
And they ain’t leavin’ till six in the morning (six in the morning)
Caught a chill, baby, you the coldest
Go far, put ’em on notice
If you know what I want, then yeah
Baby, don’t you mind if I do, yeah
Exactly what you like times two, yeah
Got me singin’, “ooh, ooh”
So baby, don’t you mind if I do
Come on, break it down!
If you know what’s good
(If you know what’s good)
If you know what’s good
(If you know what’s good)
If you know what’s good
(If you know what’s good)
Haters gon’ say it’s fake
So real
Haters gon’ say it’s fake
So real
Haters gon’ say it’s fake
So real
All my haters gon’ say it’s fake
Baby, don’t you mind if I do
Exactly what you like times two (times two)
Got me singin’, “ooh, ooh”
Baby, don’t you mind if I do

Your friends, my friends
And they ain’t leavin’ till six in the morning (six in the morning)
Your friends, my friends

So put your filthy hands all over me
And no, this ain’t the clean version
Go on and put your filthy hands all over me
No, this ain’t the clean version
Do you see me?
Can you find me?
Look closer
Through the trees
Do you see it?
