Timbaland Appreciation thread

holy shit.

fucking amazing producer and even though he's been around since my middle school days (loved him then too), he is still throwing out beats and sounds that just blow me away. they are easy listening, yet comlex at the same time. his sound is so versatile, he's making an Outkast move like after Outkast's Aquemini album came out. Everything after that album made them a household name despite the fact that they were dirtier and ghetto-er and had been around for 12 years already.


u guys really should check out "Shock Value". just got it last night and it was the best $15 i've spent in a long time.

Scream
Time
This is how I are

those are my favorite tracks so far.

anyway, sorry for not putting this in MD or whatever, but this is also more like a Timbo appreciation thread

word to that.

the track he produced for Omarian, called Ice Box is my favorite recent work from him. Sick beat with a haunting piano line.

respect and i still consider him a good producer, i just don't think he's that good atm, he has done his best stuff already. last good thing he did was "My Love", actually it's more like "Cry Me A River" tbh because if you took out the synths in "My Love" (and i heard from a lil birdy that Danja did the synths) the track would be nothing.

fuck scott stortch. i saw him at a party in sobe, and he's an ugly little troll in a bugatti. lol


Ice Box is pretty good, i have that on an R&B cd i burned recently, but it's not even a pimple on timbo's new CD's ass. haha

seriously...


Posted by Silky Johnson on May-09-2007 14:46:

He did good work on Snoop's Blue Carpet Treatment. Yeah Timbo's always had dope beats. Too bad about that whole rip-off scandal though...lost some credibility there. Ah well.

i thought this thread would be about the shoes?


Posted by david.michael on May-09-2007 14:51:

Not to be repetitive since I already talked to you about this, but, gotta participate in a thread about Timbo.

quote:
Always liked him, and I like everything he's been putting out as of late (Timberlake, Furtado, etc. etc.) I have yet to pick up this album yet though, for some reason. I need it, I know it will be right down my alley.

And OMG Magoo is really on this album? Kick ass!


Timbaland = <3

yeah but there isn't really any real competition in that. I mean, the most respected work from Scott, in my eyes, is the very beat that got him famous in the industry - the beat he did for the Roots in "You Got Me." I love that track. But once Scott broke into the rap game after that, all his beats have been recycling the same old indian-style sounds.

Timbo, on the other hand, continuously changes his style and demonstrates quality and versatility in many of his tracks. He can bang it out with a saw synth like in my love, or with the piano in Ice Box. And he's a full producer - I mean he arranges everything from beats to the vocals and choruses! Scott .... well he's just a piano mannnn

Yeah. Tim gets millions for his beats. Scott just gets a couple gra-a-and.

i agree storch is a fag


Posted by david.michael on May-09-2007 14:56:

A-hyuck!

The thing I like most about Timbaland-produced tracks is their variety. His sound has evolved over time, so still feels fresh.

I hate to burst your (and others) bubble, but JT does not write his own beats. None of these pop stars do. JT does his own lyrics and is a very good dancer with an incredible stage performance. But his music and lyrics are kept simple and basic to keep the younges of fans into his music. After all, the more age groups that can relate to your music, the more LP's you sell. With JT's management, it's all about $$.
If JT did his own beats, and wrote some more intelligent lyrics, I think his music would sound a whole lot better than the last kiddie-elementary pop album he put out.

yeah, and his style change has nothing to with the co-producer he hired?
ever head of him, yeah, his name is Danja. Danja is to timbo to what Scott Storch was to Dre for his 2001 album.

when everyone ripped off Tim's sound to the extent that it became fucking boring Tim was yesterdays news, but alas, he found a new person to take under his wings and give him new ideas, now the question is, how much of these ghostproducers are doing the actual work? i heard that Storch did alot of the stuff on dre's 2001 album but everyone kept praising Dre. Everyone is praising Timbaland but danja who is instrumental of Tim getting his shine back is nowhere to be read about

I like that he can maintain a fresh sound while still "sounding like a Timbaland track". He has a signature sound but it's still fresh IMO.

It's hard to say, with any producer really, but that doesn't change the fact that I like it.


Posted by Slylee on May-09-2007 15:08:

The song �Time� featuring She Wants Revenge is my favorite actually. She Wants Revenge is sorta like an indie rock band I think. I�ve only heard of them recently. But the combination of the beat, and Timbo�s opening verse, followed by the rock lyrics/rockish sound with a hip hop beat is just mind blowing.


Posted by StanVoid on May-09-2007 15:13:

i do have to admit though ... his album came out April 3rd? That's a month ago and I haven't heard any huge tracks off it on the radio, so I don't think it's having success anywhere close to the stuff he's produced for Nelly / JT.
