In 2005, Timberlake felt inspired to record songs again. Motivated by the "sad state" of pop radio, he decided he needed to experiment with music. Reportedly, it was not until Timberlake turned to producer Timbaland "that he figured out the direction he wanted the record to take".In November 2005, Timberlake visited Timbaland's brand-new Studios in Miami Beach, The Hit Factory, United States. Timbaland had previously collaborated with Timberlake, producing four tracks for Justified including 
"Cry Me a River"
