Justin Timberlake directs, appears in new video for FreeSol's ...

Fresh beats, hooded sweatshirts and low-slung hats? File under: Things inÂ*Justin polo shirts for men Timberlake’s skill set. The singer turned actor and now director helms a new video for the single “Hoodies On, Hats Low” by FreeSol, a Memphis-based hip-hop outfit signed to Timberlake’s labelÂ*Tennman Records. JTÂ*even appears in the video, doing very important things like repeating the word “speaker” and making a swooshing noise—plus, of course, wearing a hoodie and a face-obscuring hat. Watch it here: Timberlake tweeted a link to the video, along with the note, “New music… if you like it pass it along.” A comment on the YouTube video reading “Thumbs up if you thought JT’s twitter made you think cheapjerseys JT was releasing a new song,” complete with a frowning emoticon, is attracting a number of thumbs-up signs. Which gives us cause to say “Hmm,” in light of the fact that Timberlake, despite his ever-visibleÂ*(inescapable?)Â*media presence, New Air Jordans hasn’t released an album since Future######/LoveSounds in 2006. What do you think, Music Mix? Does “Hoodies On, Hats Low” make you want to throw on a low brim and a zip-up, too? Or is this just more fuel for a burning desire that only that sweet, soulful Timberlake croon can satisfy?
