Justin Timberlake Revamps Myspace Into MusicSpace
Eat your heart out, iTunes!
Justin Timberlake knows music, and he's pretty sure he knows what people want next in their online search for new beats.
Myspace will become a music hub, and JT believes it can surpass iTunes, Spotify, and Vevo by doing it.
According to senior vice president global marketing Al Dejewski:
No other music destination online today can claim the breadth of partnership we have with the four major music labels in addition to the tens of millions of independent artists and the libraries of their songs.
Heyyy, good point!
Myspace is arming itself with the right tools and people to launch this massive reformation: they've hired two branding agencies to find promotional partners (celebrities, etc.), they will launch the campaign later targeted to both new and dormant Myspace users, and they promise to include a mix of print, radio and digital outlets.
All right, Myspace, all right. Not bad.
If anyone's creative mind could save you, we can't think of a celebrity better than Justin. The Memphian knows music inside and out, and since that's all anyone used you for anymore, it doesn't surprise us he decided to expand on it.
You scared, Facebook?
Ha! Yeah, right! We joke, we joke.

BRAVO: Taylor Armstrong Will NOT Discuss Husband's Suicide On Special
Two things that will happen:
1. Apple won't allow an App to be published for their products.
2. VEVO and their associated labels won't allow their artists to sign up to it.
Therefore this project won't even be able to get off the ground, and JT will have lost $35million whilst News-Corp are laughing their arses off and leaving messages on his phone screaming "SUCKER!!".
Hopefully JT will loose all his money, go away and we'll never have to see or here this FUGLY hack anymore.
Myspace has alienated all those who made great myspace themed pages. Bring them back too. It shouldn't be just about music.
