2.5 average | Matty CONTRIBUTOR | March 15th 24 | Alright here's the thing: It's better than Man of the Woods by a longshot but that's not really
saying much. The pervading issue is how bloated this is and how inconsistent it is. You may have a
couple solid, sensual tracks in a row and then get a total stinker. The first single, the track
featuring NSYNC (Ha) and Sanctified are easily the best tracks here. Some serious trimming of fat
would be necessary to make this a palatable listen for me.

4.0 excellent | iamSeraph | March 15th 24 | Leaving Man of the Woods in the dust, JT finally comes back to the heights of The 2020 Experience. A sexy, laid-back, and surprisingly self-aware record dealing with regret and mistakes regarding women. The oldest topic in the book, I know, but at least he shows some sense of repentance, which takes balls and is appreciated. He's still got the vocal chops of a generation and in the tracks where he isn't using autotune to pander to the modernity of the radio scene, he shows them big time. Kudos Justin, you crazy bastard - you turned it around.

2.5 average | iGuter | March 16th 24 | Surface, but better than Man in the Woods in every way. The grooves do hit (most of the time); some noticeable tracks could?ve been cut and the better tracks could?ve had the 2 to 3 minute outros like in the 20/20. It?s a mix bag also when it comes to his delivery of some of his lyrics that pale in comparison to his older material (in terms of how he sells sexy). To me, this was enjoyable enough; but, I wanted something more thought out and interesting. There are so many artists who take this approach and have improved on it. JT still lives in the world he wants to live in.

3.5 great | tmagistrelli | March 16th 24 | You have a near perfect pop record if you cut 3-4 tracks. As it stands, this is an elite return to form.
