Justin Timberlake to release new single?

At noon today (Jan 10), Timberlake posted a video online called "I'm Ready" in which he announced his return to the recording studio. Although he didn't release any new material, the countdown clock on his website suggests we're might be three days away from hearing his next single.

"I'm the one who sits and is obsessive about it before you even get to  hear it. As close as I get to it, I don't know that I can physically  torture myself that much year in and year out and expect it to fulfill me the way  that it does, and the way that it is right now," he says in the video narration. "I don't want to put  anything out that I feel like is something I don't love. You just don't get that everyday. You have to  wait for it." 

Last night, the pop star mysteriously tweeted the date and time, which many believed signified not just the arrival of a new single, but the announcement of a 20-song album entirely produced by long-time collaborator Timbaland.

The LP will be the long-awaited follow-up to the pop star's 2006 album FutureSex/LoveSounds

According to MissInfo, the single was produced by Timbaland and will possibly feature a guest verse from rapper Jay-Z. It is due to premiere on Clear Channel at 12 p.m. EST/9 p.m. PST. Meanwhile, Perez Hilton reports that song will feature both Jay-Z and Beyoncé.
