Timberlake said in his apology that he had benefitted from a “system that condones misogyny and racism”. He mentioned that he had seen all the messages on social media on this matter and had thus decided to give his response. His message further talked about how the music industry is “flawed” and he has decided to lend his voice for this matter, as a “man in a privileged position”. He also talked about how he wanted to take “accountability” for his mistakes in the past. He concluded his message by saying that he “cares about the well-being” of the people that he has loved, and that he “can and will do better”.
