One word: "bogus" and that's straight from Timbaland's mouth when addressing the rumors of the fake Shock Value II tracklist that's been floating around. "It's funny," Timbo said about the surprisingly detailed report, which claimed it was based on an advance preview of five tracks from the album. "I'm surprised people are watching me like that. I am recording the album, but I don't know none of them joints, none of them songs." Well there is one song he does know which we told you about yesterday "Across The Sky."
Timbo did not say who was on the album, however, he did talk about the direction of the sequel to his platinum selling collaboration album. "I'm just revamping. I'm not even at a stage to say where I'm at. I'm not at a beginning, I'm not at a middle. I'm just zoning out trying to find a new sound I wanna attack, and I think I got it. It's something you never heard, something I never tried.
"It might be something you might have heard, I don't know," Timbaland added. "I'm trying to figure it out myself. I'm just having a bunch of fun right now. I don't wanna go too left, but I wanna give them something different." Though Timbaland has said in past interviews that he wants to work with all new artists for the sequel, as the recoding process has continued Timmy's changed his mind a little. "As you see, it's not a lot of artists out here. I'm going back to whoever fits the song. If this person fits the song, I'mma use him. I gotta do what my gut feeling is telling me to do."
The irony of it all is that Timbaland called into MTV to refute the rumors but it was MTV that apparently reviewed a sneak 5 track preview of Shock Value II. Yet there was no article on MTV to backup these claims and why? Because as we told you the tracklisting was never real rather just some very bored person with a lot of time on there hands decided to make one up.
Coolio? Tim Dog? Don't believe the hype ya'll! Oh and one more thing Timbaland did confirm a 2009 release date for SVII. It's coming soon!!
Props to all those that sent in the article.

ReplyDeleteI can't wait to hear what timbo has cooked up this year if it catches on watch other producers try to bite and artists come running to work with him.
ReplyDeleteIt won't be biting if Timbaland is one of their main influences, and they use some of his influence to create their own. But if you just sound like a clone... meh....
ReplyDeleteAnyhoo...
I can't wait for this album to drop.
I swear, before I'm 28, I will be working with Timbaland and Danja... that is just one of my lesser future plans.
Nikka please, this shit won't be out till 2010. this is the same man who was talking to that cat ryan secrest around june, if i'm not mistaken, that he could release chris cornell's shit in dat moment.
