Looking like a young Steve Jobs appearing at a futuristic technology conference, GRAMMY winner Justin Timberlake staged a proof-of-concept demo for a dancing robot in the first release from his upcoming Feb. 2 album, Man Of The Woods, "Filthy."

As if "Filthy" wasn't enough, JT also released the 16-song track list for the full album, revealing other titles such as "Midnight Summer Jam," "High, Higher" and "The Hard Stuff." The list, posted via Instagram includes some mysterious initials — A.K., who will feature on "Morning Light" and C.S., who will feature on "Say Something."

Billboard reports three more videos will drop weekly beginning Jan. 18, followed by the album drop just two days before Timberlake performs half time at the Super Bowl. Sounds like robot-assisted science fiction in itself. How much of his mechanically "Filthy" video stage show will he perform live?

He's not only a Man Of The Woods, he's a man of the charts as well.

Justin Timberlake Wins Best Male Pop Vocal Performance

Justin Timberlake has parlayed his Super Bowl halftime appearance into a No. 1 slot on the Billboard 200. Man Of The Woods, which netted 293,000 equivalent album units for the week ending Feb. 8, marks Timberlake's fourth LP to top the Billboard album chart.

The "Filthy" singer scored the biggest album sales week since Taylor Swift's Reputation soared to No. 1 in December 2017 on the strength of 1.24 million units.

Timberlake's previous three albums to top the album chart were The 20/20 Experience (2 of 2) and The 20/20 Experience (both in 2013) and FutureSex/LoveSounds (2006). His debut solo album, 2002's Justified, peaked at No. 2.

The GRAMMY winner will support Man Of The Woods with a robust world tour, which kicks off March 13 in Toronto.

Multiple GRAMMY winner lights up Minneapolis for Super Bowl LII Halftime Show

Justin Timberlake held the attention of television audiences worldwide at the Super Bowl LII Halftime Show in Minneapolis, Minn. on Feb. 4.

Timberlake began his performance by singing his new hit "Filthy" in an intimate club environment. Dancing up a flight of stairs to the top of the stage surrounded by more than 66,000 fans, JT launched into "Rock Your Body" and the lively medley continued through more fun hits, dancing, and special guest performers.

Timberlake's tribute to Minneapolis' own Prince, singing "I Would Die 4 U," was both a key sentimental moment and a perfect example of the challenging comparisons Super Bowl halftime performers face being compared with previous years. Prince himself took the halftime challenge in 2007, dazzling the crowd with "Purple Rain" in the rain, and for many, the excitement of last year's Lady Gaga drone-heavy halftime is still intense.

Closing with his GRAMMY-winning composition "Can't Stop That Feeling!" from the soundtrack to the movie Trolls, JT embodied his own many artistic dimensions as he converted yet another generation of youth to the notion that maybe they should be dancing. Social media trolls have had football fun too, piling on what was a superb professional performance of compelling pop-R&B for a television audience of more than 100 million.

Timberlake's "Filthy" video went up on YouTube about a month ago and now has more than 43 million views. JT begins touring for his Man Of The Woods new album next month.

The Justin Timberlake news just keeps coming. First we had the announcement he would be performing at the Super Bowl. Then the reveal of his first album since 2013, Man Of The Woods. Then we got the first video, "Filthy," and the album's track list. And now we have a full-blown tour to celebrate.

The GRAMMY winner will head out across North American for a tour spanning 25 cities, starting in Toronto, Ontario, on March 13 and segueing to  Washington, D.C., New York, Chicago, Detroit, Los Angeles, Phoenix, Houston, among other cities, and wrapping up May 30 in Memphis, Tenn. Ticket presales will begin Jan. 10.

As for the tour, prepare to see something a little unique.

"The outdoors is the inspiration for a lot of these songs. That's the main idea," Timberlake says in the tour's trailer. "The tour will be able to bring the outside in. How can we bring that to life?"

At a record-breaking concert in Omaha, Timberlake leads a group donation for local victims of record-breaking floods

Performing at Omaha, Nebraska's CHI Health Center on March 23, Justin Timberlake stopped the show to announce his concert broke the venue's record for ticket sales, and some of those funds as well as his own money would be assisting the "Nebraska Strong" effort to recover from the state's record-breaking floods. The winter storm that began on March 9 resulted in a March 21 federal disaster declaration and was described by Nebraska's Governor Pete Ricketts on March 20 as "the most widespread destruction we have ever seen in our state's history."

"Our hearts go out to those that are affected by all the floods," said Timberlake. "This is what we're going to do, we are going to make a donation. When I say 'we' I mean we are all here tonight making a donation, this being the highest-grossing show in this venue, each and every one of your tickets is going to be part of a donation." He continued, pledging his own personal funds too, as well as a matching gift from promoter Live Nation. His sponsor, beverage-maker Bai donated drinking supplies.

OMAHA! Thank you for coming out last night. Just by showing up, you became a big part of our efforts to help the victims of the flooding here in the Midwest. Special thanks to @LiveNation & @drinkbai. Stay strong Nebraska, WE LOVE YOU.

"This is the real America right here," said Timberlake from on stage. "Are we Nebraska Strong tonight?" #NebraskaStrong and the state's Nebraska Strong website are dedicated to providing resources and assistance for those worst affected.
