Justin Timberlake can barely say something, let alone sing.
The “Filthy” singer, 37, has postponed Wednesday night’s Man of the Woods tour date at Madison Square Garden, explaining on social media that his “vocal chords are severely bruised,” and he cannot perform “on doctor’s orders.”
“I’m gonna make this up to you,” Timberlake wrote on Instagram. “…Again I’m so sorry to do this, but excited to see you soon. Love, J.”

Timberlake announced the postponement just two hours after MSG tweeted about the singer’s second gig at the venue.
The star performed at MSG Monday evening and Wednesday’s show would have been his second and final Man of the Woods stop in the Big Apple.
