If there was any doubt about Justin Timberlake‘s Pop power, it’s been dispelled with the release of new song ‘Can’t Stop The Feeling.’

Rolled out yesterday (May 6th), the ‘Trolls’ soundtrack cut has rapidly bested the competition and looks set to make a major splash on the Billboard Hot 100 next week.

Details below…

As at writing, ‘Feeling’ is lodged atop of the US iTunes tally and – as the sales bars below show – he has a gargantuan lead.

Paired with the inevitable radio play and streaming, next week’s Hot 100 should be all sorts of interesting.

It’s a unique campaign too; Timberlake stars as lead in the Dreamworks’ movie and the timeline of the release should see it bleed into the roll-out of his new album.

Exciting times.

  2. ???????? May 7, 2016

    He’s gay

  3. B2B May 7, 2016

    Love JT. 2016 is the year of music everybody is releasing! ??? *Patiently awaits for Keyshia Cole to redeem herself from this fish plate mess* ?

    • Gregory Williams May 7, 2016

      So true what you said about keyshia, I really hope she delivers this time.

    • Leah May 7, 2016

      Sad thing is people joke her BUT those songs are incredible I SHOULD HAVE CHEATED, I JUST WANT IT TO BE OVER, HEAVEN SENT, I REMEMBER

  4. No favs, just here for the music May 7, 2016

    How are you able to see the popularity of the songs like that??

  5. King B May 7, 2016

    Pink, AK, Bey, JT all have new songs. Now Britney, Xtina, Gaga and Katy, hurry up please. But I’m super excited for Xtina! Oh, and Gwen had new songs as well, the 90’s popstars!

    • King Mark111 /.\ May 7, 2016

      Pink came out in 2000, Keys came out in 2001, Katy 07, Gags 08. The others 1998 at best. 90s?

      • King B May 7, 2016

        Sorry. It shud be late 90s and early 2000.

  6. Dossome May 7, 2016

    Congrats Justin…Really horrible song though

    • Anti- garbage singing vioces May 7, 2016

      White privilege.

  7. Barb-wire May 7, 2016

    The fact that corny people like JT are being given made up titles like “President Of Pop” is a major kiii and shows the music industry is really dying. If only he’d disappear and never come back…

    • Anti- garbage singing vioces May 7, 2016

      I agree. What about usher? He deserves that titel but hey he isn’t white.

    • Wee May 7, 2016

      What’s wrong with Justin? He actually makes a really good collab with Timbaland. If he has an album with 16 songs, 8 of them are around the 6-8 minute mark. That’s art. That’s getting your money’s worth. Jt will take forever to release an album, but you can always tell they invest a lot of time in making good music. JT be riding! Lol!!

  8. S****** Blonde May 7, 2016

    ?

  9. Cake like Lady GaGa May 7, 2016

    White privilege

    • S****** Blonde May 7, 2016

      Just like when all Rihanna’songs go to number one o the billboard hot 100 is black privilege, right?

      • blue May 7, 2016

        Lets leave the goddess out of this, she is above all of that.

      • S****** Blonde May 7, 2016

        I just want to know why JT fans buying his song is “white privilege” while Rihanna fans doing the same isn’t?

      • rosy3 May 7, 2016

        Leave rih out of this white people support each other music it’s a fact I hate to say this but blacks sit online tear each other down and wonder why their favorite cannot win this year will be a good year when Grammy comes around no one will say oh well jt has a strong audience from way back with nsync at least no one person will dominate music I’m waiting for adele new single that will go straight to number one it’s better than hello to me

    • The Kpop Guy, Matt~ May 7, 2016

      How is people CHOOSING to buy his music, white privilege?

      • toeknee May 7, 2016

        Botched ugly mess!!!!!

    • Anti- garbage singing vioces May 7, 2016

      I totally agree with u. 100%

    • JOHNVIDAL May 7, 2016

      Cake
      Hey you never told us how Mariah´s concert went. What did you think?

  10. blue May 7, 2016

    Do see this song falling soon and falling hard

    • Citi May 7, 2016

      Pharrells “Happy” didn’t fall hard nor fast and this song is much better. It may be the song of the summer.

  11. obsidian May 7, 2016

    Payola!!!!

  12. Yelyah the alternative queen May 7, 2016

  13. King Mark111 /.\ May 7, 2016

    ???

  14. Joyce May 7, 2016

    This song is such a cheap score, hope next one will be Better.
    JT please stay away from EDM

  15. The Kpop Guy, Matt~ May 7, 2016

    I never did like JT that much but this song deserves it’s number 1. Such a bop

    • toeknee May 7, 2016

      Why the multiple surgeries dude, you really look scary & you always using that picture. Use something else Goddd!

  16. Cinnamon Girl May 7, 2016

    What happened to Beyawnce? First Drake knocked her out now JT? Lol!

  17. The Kpop Guy, Matt~ May 7, 2016

    Also, screaming at the escaped Arkham Asylum patient AnålBead seathing up and down that post yesterday.
    I came and said what I needed to say then left. And it was a REAL kii to see Cheryl soldier clock you hehe.

    • King Mark111/.\ May 7, 2016

      Please murder my bûśśy Ming Lee

  18. Anti- garbage singing vioces May 7, 2016

    Whites always do. Pfff. I would be surprised if he didn’t.

  19. Rihboy May 7, 2016

    Is Calvin and rih moved back up. Lemonades singles are free falling already. Needed me coming up too! I I don’t ever consider first two days of a single debut because it’s hype selling the song. But it’s boring and safe as hell. Calvin and rih need to hurry up and put a serious video out! And Rihanna needs too hit someone’s morning show or something and perform needed me/ kiss it better. Her next singles should be love on the brain/desperado ! Those will do well commercially!

    • Anti- garbage singing vioces May 7, 2016

      What u talking about? Clean ur eyes. Beyonce has 3 songs in that top 10 and all her songs are in the top 100.

      • blue May 7, 2016

        And falling fast

      • Rihboy May 7, 2016

        For now! I said free falling meaning it’s descent is evident . None of them reached one either on billboard.

    • King B May 7, 2016

      After trying to create controversy with her pornography videos, NM and KIB are yet to enter the top 10 of iTunes?

      • blue May 7, 2016

        Naked rihanna is controversial? The was no controversy. She did what she has always done and what she was comfortable with.

  20. Anti- garbage singing vioces May 7, 2016

    Nothing against Justin but dont see why it is #1. Trash song.

  21. blue May 7, 2016

    Has it really been over 8 years since bey’s last #1 usa song? Man! That seems long? In the uk?

    • King B May 7, 2016

      It doesn’t matter cuz she has 16 top 10 in US and soon 19 in UK.

  22. Jamie May 7, 2016

    I guess…He still wack af

  23. What Now May 7, 2016

    It’s not WP. Drake just sold a million in his first week like JT did with 20/20. The Weeknd, Kendrick Lamar, J. Cole, and more are extremely successful black artists. JT did this song for a kid’s movie. Stop the hatred.

    • Mr.StLaurent May 7, 2016

      Thank You ?
      It’s just a fun song for the summer. Not a masterpiece

  24. qwerty May 10, 2016

    jt is trying so hard to be mj but he can’t not in this life. totally trash song now after the success of taylor swift he is eyeing max martin lol where is timbaland?

  25. qwerty May 10, 2016
