"the song is catchy tho."

Plus when you are living for free in a house some else built and making millions from it, you can ignore a harmless comment. Not come for his 30+ year long musical career right after your first couple singles.

That's like me becoming a soul singer tomorrow. Being mediocre at best. Then coming for Aretha's career on a song. Who do I think I am? (and that is without all the appropriation and race complications that come with Justin)
"For free"?!? Psh. While Prince was born into literal royalty JT was subjected to literal CHILD LABOR!

A soul singer "tomorrow"?!? Double psh! JT had been working his literal nuts off at the showbiz game for yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeears before he blessed the world by bringing the literal SEXY BACK!

Nobody paid more dues than Justin Timberlake. Nobody. Instead of acting like a jealous, spoiled manchild Prince should have been thanking JT for the gifts JT bestowed upon His Highness's ears.
