Is Justin Timberlake Copying Jamiroquai’s Music Style?

Justin Timberlake and Jamiroquai‘s Jay Kay are two prestigious artists of the 21st century. When it comes to style, Jamiroquai has always been known as a Funk/Disco band. Well, it seems, Justin Timberlake is a great admirer of their single “Automaton”.

A few days ago, the American singer released a new song called “Filthy.” And trust me, there are so many similarities between these tracks…

So, I am sharing the two videos below so that you can get the point of this constructive criticism. You will notice both are futuristic and too funky-esque. And there’s nothing wrong with that, I consider myself a big fan of them!

Which one is your favorite?
