There was a time not long ago where, among Justin Timberlake\u2019s many talents, he was known to beat box withmixed reviews as to the quality and quantity of said skill.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s been a somewhat forgotten part of Timberlake\u2019s catalog until Instagram creator Hannah Young posted about the *NSYNC member\u2019s habit of beatboxing.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe don\u2019t talk about Justin Timerblake beatboxing enough because there was a moment in time where that man would be in the middle of a song and just boots and cats and boots and cats,\u201d Young said. \u201cAnd we were like, \u2018Yes, there he is.\u2019 Nobody questioned it.\u201d<\/p>\n
She continued, \u201cNobody said, Justin, you know, we have drums. This is a professional recording studio. There are instruments available to you. But no, Justin Timberlake wanted to make space noises with his mouth.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd we liked it. That\u2019s what I need us to sit with,\u201d Young concluded.<\/p>\n
Timberlake weighed in on the video, offering an apology for his beatboxing.<\/p>\n
\u201cI often look back on that time as well. I still haven\u2019t come up with any answers,\u201d he wrote in the comments. \u201cI don\u2019t know how to apologize enough for whatever those ambitions were. Too many boots. Too many cats. I hope you can forgive me.\u201d<\/p>\n
Then he added, \u201cAlso, I can\u2019t promise I won\u2019t do it again. God help us all.\u201d<\/p>\n
Timberlake can be heard doing his beatboxing on songs like \u201cPop\u201d and at shows like the \u201cNo Strings Attached\u201d Tour at Madison Square Garden.<\/p>\n
This isn\u2019t the first time Timberlake has addressed his questionable habit.<\/p>\n
When asked about the beatboxing during an episode of \u201cHot Ones\u201d<\/a> in 2023, Timberlake said, \u201cFile that under, you know, slightly regrettable.\u201d<\/p>\n Follow us on Instagram @WeArePauseRewind<\/a> for all your pop culture obsessions.<\/p>\n
