Justin Timberlake has made a return to the music scene with his latest album, Everything I Thought It Was, but it seems that his comeback hasn't quite hit the high notes that fans were hoping for. The album debuted at No. 2 on the Vinyl Albums chart, falling just short of the top spot which was claimed by Kacey Musgraves' Deeper Well.
This marks the first time that Timberlake has missed out on reaching No. 1 on the Vinyl Albums chart with one of his releases. In the past, all of his albums that made it to this list have managed to secure the top position. Timberlake has previously achieved three No. 1s on the Vinyl Albums chart, with The 20/20 Experience, The 20/20 Experience (2 Of 2), and Man of the Woods.
When including his work with NSYNC, Timberlake's total number of appearances on the Vinyl Albums chart increases to seven. However, none of NSYNC's albums have been able to break into the top 10 on the list.
Everything I Thought It Was also made its debut on other Billboard rankings, such as the Top Album Sales chart where it entered at No. 2, and the Billboard 200 where it landed at No. 4. While these rankings are still impressive, they represent a new low for Timberlake when considering his solo studio albums.
