Justin Timberlake and SZA just released a song that serves as the first single off the upcoming soundtrack for the Trolls World Tour movie. While that may not seem very hype, the single, “The Other Side,” is actually great.
The track is an up-beat and funky one written by Timberlake, and produced by Ludwig Göransson. Timberlake has written and performed the new music on the soundtrack with appearances from artists such as George Clinton, Kelly Clarkson, Mary J. Blige, Anna Kendrick, Anderson .Paak, Haim and more.
The 90s Hip-Hop Hype-Williams inspired video dropped Wednesday and stars JT and SZA. The two sing into a fish-eye lens, while dressed in silver bodysuits in sci-fi industrial rooms, and JT of course performs some of his signature dance moves.
“I was so thrilled to be invited to participate in this project with Justin,” SZA said in a statement. “The Creative Process of working with him and the team was filled with such excitement. It’s an energy you can feel in both the song and music video. I can’t wait for people to check it out.”
Timberlake and Kendrick will reprise their roles, and star in Trolls World Star, which will be out in theaters April 17.
