More details have emerged on Justin Timberlake's second solo album, which is due out later this year.
Billboard reports that the singer is working with three producers on the album: hip-hop legend Timbaland, Black Eyed Peas frontman will.i.am and Johnny Cash producer Rick Rubin.
Timberlake has also formed what the trade daily describes as a "musical partnership" with will.i.am called Jawbreakers.
Speaking to Billboard about Jawbreakers, will.i.am said: "It stands for Justin and Will breaks. It's Justin and I's production team when we do things together. We did half of Justin's record and some songs on Macy Gray's new album."
Commenting on Timberlake's new music, will.i.am said: "I can't explain it, that's how dope it is. He just surprised me again."
