Justin Timberlake Debuts Country Single

After an overwhelming out-pour of "make a country music album" pleads last week, Justin Timberlake decided to make a big move.

As I'm sure you've heard or saw, JT performed with Chris Stapleton at the CMA Awards last week. The performance blew minds. Since the performance aired Chris Stapleton, who won three awards at the CMA's, has shot up the charts. His album "The Traveler" is sitting pretty at #1 on the Billboard 200 Chart. Chris wasn't the only one to see an impact after the awards.

Yesterday, Justin Timberlake released his first single to Country Radio. "Drink You Away" is on Justin's album "The 20/20 Experience" and it's also one of the songs he performed with Chris Stapleton.

Below you can listen to the live performance and the radio single. I'm partial to the live version, it's more country. The single version, in my opinion, is bluesy but too poppy at the same time. Take a listen to both and let us know which you like more.

Either way, welcome to country music Justin! I know I'm going to like having you around.
