Justin Timberlake’s “Filthy” Zooms To #2 On US iTunes Sales Chart

Only “Finesse” is currently selling at a faster pace.

Justin Timberlake’s new single “Filthy” arrived late Thursday night — and quickly blasted into the upper reaches of the US iTunes sales chart.

The song is #2 as of press time at 9:15AM ET. Only Bruno Mars’ new remix of “Finesse (featuring Cardi B),” which debuted in the store late Wednesday/early Thursday, is selling at a faster pace.

“Filthy” is the lead single from Timberlake’s “Man Of The Woods.”

The song has an unconventional sound — and is predictably generated a mixed reaction. It will be interesting to see whether the market embraces or rejects it in the weeks head.
