Editorial Review: Album Description: Timbaland is already acknowledged as one of music’s most inventive and distinctive creators. Yet the artist/producer’s forthcoming album, just his second solo album, promises to shock the world. Timbaland Presents Shock Value (Mosley Music Group/Blackground/Interscope) is set for release April 3, 2007. The first single, 'Give It To Me,' featuring Justin Timberlake and Nelly Furtado. 'My mission is to blow up the boundaries and tear down the limits,' says Timbaland. I’m taking my music outside of the box. I’m not getting away from what I’m known for; I’m just going to a place where it’s all about the music, not about the labels on the music. That’s why I call it Shock Value--from the artists to the production, it will shock the system. Guests include Justin Timberlake, Nelly Furtadio, Jay-Z, Fall Out Boy, Nicole Scherzinger (PCD), Snoop Dogg, Lil' Wayne, Twista, She Wants Revenge, The Hives, Keri Hilson, Elton John and more. This is the explict version. Amazon.com: When the most exciting producer in pop music himself puts out a CD, the thrill is in the discovery: The world may have already suspected that Justin Timberlake, Nelly Furtado, and a small army of other singers owed 75% of their fame to the stockpile of skittering beats Timbaland built and then graciously set them upon, but here's a chance to prove it. Or it might have been in less welcoming hands. Shock Value is a far-reaching and ambitious disc; a masterpiece, even, in its own way. But it's not at all self-centered. If there's a point being put across here, it's that Timbaland came by your vote as behind-the-scenes musical man of the hour honestly: pair him with Fall Out Boy or the Strokes, and he will not only provide tracks that surprise you by maintaining their rock 'n' roll integrity, he will also convince you that shimmer's role in rock music has, to now, been tragically misguided and miniscule. Re-team him with Timberlake and Furtado (for the near-flawless track "Give It to Me") and he will again trade vocal bites, but they will still be nibbly, not voracious. In a CD full of experiments and puzzles (why is Elton John just piano-playing, not singing? And how did the L.A. band One Republic end up on this disc?) a single truth emerges: Timbaland's taste is impeccable, but his judgment is even better. Shock Value, by virtue of its swirly beats and mesmerizing rhythms, will bring him a smidge closer to the spotlight. But because it's a disc of collaborations, he'll retain the shadowy-genius reputation that precedes him, and that he so richly deserves. --Tammy La Gorce Customer Reviews
Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Put it on shuffle and leave it on all day!I first listened to this album late at night doing a 2 hour drive home. It was probably one of the best times to listen to it. What an amazing album. I was already a Timbaland fan since hearing his work with Justin Timberlake, Nelly Furtado. I love this album for partying or driving or whatever. It's the most fun CD I've ever heard, great for anyone who's into hip-hop, r&b, pop, and even some rock. Favorite Tracks: 2. Give It To Me - This is Timbaland at his best. This is still one of my favorite songs and the verses from Nelly Furtado, Timbaland, and Justin Timberlake were all cool. Everyone should know this one since it was a #1 hit on the charts. Whenever this song comes on, I bob my head and people just have to ... Read More: Rating:  - most of the songs were so-soThe songs "The way I Are" and "Apologize" are the best songs on the cd and the rest were kinda boring, I thought. Rating: - ShockingI really like only about 5 songs on this album. A few are way to vulger to even listen to. Timbaland is soo talented, I wish he could keep it cleaner. Rating:  - Buyer BewareIf you are expecting the same level of quality shown on Nelly Furtado's album, Justin Timberlake's album, or Madonna's album, it will fall short of such expectations. It has the same feel to it as the others sound wise but digging deeper, lyrically it is horrible, he comes across as a thug, that no one on earth can mix a track other than him, there's confidence and then there's arrogance, the n***** and the f*** word are overused if not abused, last but not least he comes off as a chauvinist who thinks he's gods gift to women. Rating: - Where's Nina Simone?The last five songs completely saved this cd for me. I thought it was a shame that Nina Simone isn't given credit for her contribution to the first track. Every other tracks say Timbaland Featuring _____, but track one leaves Nina Simone off and claims to be a solo piece. I disagree with his taking the liberty of changing her "Oh Sinnerman" to "Oh Timbaland", but in the end I have to admit that the album as a whole is great.The Best of Nina Simone |
