Writing a great song will always win in the end when it comes to making it in the music industry, but being able to churn out a great cover every now and then can certainly help your journey along. Your fans, and more importantly the fans you’ve yet to make, have interests other than discovering new music, and covers are an easy way to bridge the gap between their current interests and your music. Up and coming band Paradise Fears recognize the potential to further their brand through this means, and recently posted a Justin Timberlake cover that we simply had to share.

Hailing from South Dakota, Paradise Fears have been carving their own niche in alternative pop rock since 2009. Their music has been compared to the likes of Coldplay, The Script, and Jack’s Mannequin, and after watching the performance below it’s easy to understand why. Smooth vocals, strong instrumentation, and a clear passion for their art make Paradise Fears a band to watch in 2013, and the following video is sure to aide them in their journey to the top.

When Justin Timberlake announced his return to pop music, no one doubted that his album release would be successful. It would take a fool or someone completely unaware of Timberlake’s history in pop to think the heartthrob’s new material would sell anything below a few hundred thousand copies its first week out, and sure enough it did even better than we could have imagined.

The numbers for the last week of album sales have finally been calculated and Justin Timberlake again finds himself in the number one position on the charts. The 20/20 Experience sold 968,000 stateside, giving Timberlake his biggest debut ever as well as the highest first week sales by a male artist since Lil Wayne’s Tha Carter IV. It’s not quite a million, but it’s nothing to complain about either.

JT is set to embark on the ‘Legends Of The Summer’ tour with Jay-Z this July. The dates can be found here.

Making good on his earlier promises, Justin Timberlake has released the official video for “Mirrors.”

Serving as the second single off the now in stores 20/20 Experience, “Mirrors” is a song that should be familiar to anyone who has seen Timberlake perform in the last month. A popular counterpart to “Suit & Tie,” the song carries an emotionally deep and memorable vibe that is perfectly balanced against a radio ready hook and beat made for dancing. The clip is full of romance and expensive clothes and you can view it in its entirety after the jump. Continue reading ‘Justin Timberlake Releases “Mirrors” Video’

Whether you love Timberlake or think pop music is overrated mush created to move units, it is becoming increasingly hard to hate on the man’s hustle. Even without an album in stores Timberlake has not backed away from debuting a plethora of new material in a live setting.
