Take Back the Night Foundation, Katherine Koestner, HYPETRAK, Justin Timberlake - Response to Take Back the Night" Song lyrics

"The lyrics are definitely very sexual
And not at all
Clearly anti-sexual violence, ‘Use me
’ for example, is not a great phrase for
Anyone affiliated with the organization"



"I wanted to take this opportunity to
Let all know that neither
My song nor it's lyrics have
Any association with the organization
As I've learned more about the
Take Back the Night Foundation
I’m moved by it's efforts to
Stop violence against women
Create safe communities and encourage
Respectful relationships for women
- something we all should rally around
It is my hope that this coincidence will
Bring more awareness to this cause"



"At this point, we're going
To bow down gracefully
And accept that fighting this in court
Probably isn't the best use
Of anyone's time it's best to
Focus on the mission
And his stated support is
Important to us mostly
It was shocking that an institution that goes
Back to 1973 went unnoticed by
The likes of Justin Timberlake it shows
How much visibility we really need"
