Producer and songwriter Jim Beanz (Britney Spears, Gwen Stefani, Timbaland) just made life worth living again. He recently told the U.K.'s Digital Spy that pop music mastermind (I said it!) Justin Timberlake is working on new music. I repeat, JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE IS WORKING ON NEW MUSIC. Since the release of Timberlake's last album, FutureSex/LoveSounds, he's spent the last six years appearing in movies and getting engaged to Jessica Biel. (Boo.)

Beanz revealed that Timberlake is currently working on new tunes with long-time collaborator Timbaland. Beanz will be joining them in the studio later this year: "I'm going to be helping out on Shock Value 3 with Timbaland and the Justin Timberlake project," Beanz said. "It's still in the early stages, but they have a lot of tracks... [Timberlake] has some crazy, crazy stuff."

Beanz also added that Timberlake isn't concerned with one-upping his last album: "It's not really about topping the last record, it's more about topping music that comes on the radio... He's going to kill it." Um, DUH.

How do you guys feel about Justin Timberlake finally hitting the studio again? Do you share my sentiment of "SWEET JESUS, THANK YOU"? Let us know in the comments!

Amazing news.

Justin Timberlake hasn’t released an album since 2006′s FutureSex/LoveSounds, mostly because he has been distracted by the business of being Justin Timberlake. That tends to fill one’s day with acting in Oscar-winning films, dropping into the occasional SNL sketch, hosting a golf tournament, sometimes going to the Marine Corps Ball, and being engaged to Jessica Biel. It’s a busy life, which is why our eyebrows raised when we saw these quotes from a producer named Jim Beanz, who claims to be working with Timberlake on a series of songs for a “crazy” new album. Considering JT’s stature and the types of people he has worked with in the past, why would he hook up with a dude nobody has ever heard of? It turns out… He wouldn’t. According to Timberlake’s publicist, there are currently no plans for a new album, though JT is working with Timbaland on tracks for Shock Value 3 (he appeared on each of the first two installments of the series). But as for other music, “That’s it,” said the spokesperson.
