  1. I've always wondered, if he would have signed with JT instead of Usher and not been exposed to Sean Combs, would his professional and personal journey been more stable and safe?

  2. If Justin would’ve gone with JT I think things would’ve been different, JT knows a little bit about being taken advantage of during his days in NSYNC and I think he would’ve taken better care of Justin in his early days

  3. wow, l remember Justine playing that big guitar, in Stratford, my home town, sitting on the steps of the Stratford theater, also his home town, he was great even back then, he was soooo young and fearless…..😌😘

  4. Whatever anyone say ..The industry cannot ruin him because they cannot take away this guys talented ,this guy voice and his passion for music.He has a purpose,a purpose to serve the music to rest of the world and he accomplished it.Music is his life.You can take away everything but you can't take away a person's knowledge.He is truely god gifted.I never believe in worshipping celebrities but as a human being i genuinely have empathy for him.He is an incredible artist of 21st generation.

  5. Ironic he sang JT’s Cry me a River at 13 years old. And now Justin sings it once again but to JT reflecting on the meaning of the lyrics. Crazy full circle moment.

  6. Well, I'm glad to see some of you admit that Bieber was better off with JT, and I am also glad that no 1 is cussing JT out as usual. Whether you like it or not, JT is a good man, and he would have protected Bieber better than Usher ever did

  7. Bruh, some people suck if they wanted something different. This was genius. More intimate session with him. Like just you and him in the garage hanging out. You seeing and hearing him. Love it.

  8. JT and Usher were in a bidding war to who could sign Bieber. Imagine if Bieber signed with Timberlake instead of Usher… maybe he wouldn't have gone through what he did. Although, it's hard to say – because obviously Scooter was his manager and was responsible for his welfare. But JT for sure wouldn't have left JB with P. Diddler.

    Now, I think it's about time for a TimBieberlake collab!!!!!

  9. So I sat in a room in Ny watching the video as a young kid give head on camerA, we are sheet metal apprentices but older then the rest one kid lost his job for speaking up for you ,help us with your fame we all saw you bending down after that I don't even know his name but they played that video you as kid in our apprenticeship class in smart 38 like it didn't still hurt you
