Suit & Tie (feat. JAY-Z)

Justin Timberlake unveiled his first single since 2006 on his website on January 14, 2013. The horn-tinged track finds him singing about his love for being well-dressed. Timberlake's previous album, FutureSex/LoveSounds, was released in 2006, after which he took a break from music to work as an actor in movies such as The Social Network. The singer explained in an open letter to his fans that in June 2012, he "quietly started working on what is now my next journey with that thing I love called MUSIC." Justin went on to explain that his sessions became his third studio album, The 20/20 Experience. He said: "The inspiration for this really came out of the blue and to be honest, I didn't expect anything out of it. I just went into the studio and started playing around with some sounds and songs. It was probably the best time I've had in my career... Just creating with no rules and/or end goal in mind and really enjoying the process. What I came up with is something I couldn't be more excited about! It is full of inspiration that I grew up listening to and some newfound muses that I've discovered along the way."

This R&B throwback features a guest verse from Jay-Z, and the bass-heavy production stylings of Timbaland. It was penned by Timberlake with Jerome "J-Roc" Harmon whose previous credits include Timbaland's Justin Timberlake featuring single "Carry Out" and Roc Nation singer-songwriter James Fauntleroy (Destiny's Child's "Nuclear").

The song reached #1 on iTunes singles charts in 31 countries, including Brazil, Canada, France, Sweden, the U.S. and the UK.
