The 32-year-old entertainer tweeted a photo of himself in the studio with a note on the mixing board saying, “The 20/20 Experience (2 of 2) Sept. 30th.” We can’t wait!

This album is releasing just six months after his hugely successful album The 20/20 Experience debuted at number 1 on the Billboard 200 chart, selling 968,000 copies in its first week.

Justin is scheduled to perform tonight at an exclusive Mastercard concert at New York’s Roseland Ballroom.

TOP PICK: Justin Timberlake's '20/20' Heading to 950,000-Plus Debut


If another day has gone by, that must mean the sales forecast for Justin Timberlake's blockbuster "The 20/20 Experience" album have grown by at least another 50,000-100,000.

Today (March 24), industry sources forecast that the pop star's new "The 20/20 Experience" could sell between 950,000 and 975,000 by the close of the tracking week -- tonight. (Nielsen SoundScan's sales week runs Monday-Sunday each week.)

The top 10 of the new Billboard 200 chart, where "20/20" will no doubt be No. 1, will be revealed on Wednesday, March 27.

Can "20/20" sell 1 million in its debut week?

It's possible that "20/20" could reach a million, but sources are hesitant to go that far with their sales projections. We'll have to see how the rest of Sunday shakes out for the album. But, it would seem that the album has a quite real shot at reaching the magic million mark.

If "20/20" sells a million in its first week, the RCA Records set would become only the 19th album to do so since SoundScan started tracking music sales in 1991. The last album to sell a million in a week was Taylor Swift's "Red," which moved 1.2 million when it debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart last fall.

Presently, Timberlake is gunning for the best sales week for an album by a male artist since Lil Wayne's "Tha Carter IV" sold 964,000 when it debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 dated Sept. 17, 2011.

On May 11 -- before the RCA Records album came out on March 19 -- Billboard first reported that "20/20" was headed for at least 500,000. Then, once the album did drop, its sales projection jumped to 750,000 on the 20th, 800,000 on the 21st, 850,000 to 900,000 on the 22nd and now 950,000 to 975,000 today (24).

TOP PICK: Justin Timberlake Announces Part Two of '20/20' Album, Throws Party!

The 'Suit & Tie' singer is back making music after a 6 year hiatus with The 20/20 Experience, which is in stores today, but there's a second part set to drop later this year.

"There is another half," JT confirmed last night at his album release party in LA. "I'm not giving you a release date."

Rumors first started circulating that there was a sequel to the album when his friend DJ Questlove discussed it on a music message board last week, saying "spoiler alert. 20/20 Vol 2 comes out in nov."

Justin celebrated his album at the El Rey Theater with some very famous friends including Ryan Seacrest, Emmy Rossum and Nikki Reed.

Justin Timberlake: '20/20 Experience' Album Title & Details!


After dropping his brand new single “Suit & Tie,” Justin Timberlake has opened up to his fans in a candid letter revealing the title of his upcoming album – The 20/20 Experience!

“Back in June of last year, I quietly started working on what is now, my next journey with that thing I love called MUSIC,” the 31-year-old entertainer wrote on his website.

“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,” Justin added. “I’m calling it “The 20/20 Experience,” and it’s coming out this year.”

An Open Letter to you (the fans):

I hope this gets to you the right way. It’s the only way I know to do it. Some people may criticize me for the last 3 days. But it was fun, right?? Right?!?! Besides, I’d rather speak directly to all of you. And, who can knock me for having a little bit of fun with it?

Well… No more teasing. Although, it was A LOT of fun. (Did I mention that I’m having fun with this?? Ha!)

*Makes a serious face*

So, here goes:

This year is an exciting one for me. As you probably have heard through the “grapevine,” I’m gearing up for a big 2013.

Back in June of last year, I quietly started working on what is now, my next journey with that thing I love called MUSIC.

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.

I’m calling it “The 20/20 Experience,” and it’s coming out this year.

I hope you enjoy listening to it as much as I enjoyed making it.

That’s all I’m giving you for now… I know, I know! Again, with the teasing!!!

Get ready. This is going to be fun (well, at least it is for me).
Justin
