Justin Timberlake Not Behind New Song 'Take You Down'

Justin Timberlake is not behind a new track entitled 'Take You Down' which began circulating online last week.

The song was credited to the former N*Sync star, with additional reports claiming it had been produced by The Neptunes.

But a spokesperson for Timberlake told MTV News that the song was not by him.

"Justin has no involvement with either the song or the artist but wants to assure his fans that when he releases new music, they will be the first to know,” they added.

'Take You Down' is actually by Danish artist Rasmus Thude and called 'LLL (Love, Liquor, Lick It)'.

The reports last week sparked speculation that Timberlake was planning to return to music after launching an acting career.
