Justin Timberlake is quitting his social media accounts amid rumors of new music

Justin Timberlake fans are wondering why he took a break from his social media.

The Cry Me a River singer deleted all of her social media content on Sunday, including on her X account (Twitter). On January 8, he replaced his profile picture with a new photo showing himself looking at his own reflection in a car's rearview mirror.

This change has led fans to speculate that a new song or album will be released soon. “That’s the rumor,” one fan wrote on Instagram. Many artists have recently deleted content from their social media in preparation for new singles/albums. A clean slate for new things.”

A new song from Justin Timberlake would be an event. In fact, he hasn't released new music since 2018, when he unveiled his fifth studio album Man of the Woods, which included two top 10 songs, Filthy and Say Something.

The singer is known for taking long breaks between albums. His first album, Justified, was released in 2002 and the next, FutureSex/LoveSounds, in 2006. He then waited six years before releasing his third album, The 20/20 Experience, in 2013.

Justin Timberlake's last appearance on Instagram was via his wife Jessica Biel's account. In December, she posted a photo of the couple in formal wear during a trip to Las Vegas.
