Timbaland Only Producer On Jay-Z’s New Album
Artist:
Timbaland
It seems the American Gangster himself only needs one super-producer on his new album. This time Timbaland got the call and he’s more than happy he picked up. “He wants me to do the whole thing this time around,” explaining to the MTV News office. “I'mma make it a classic too. You better believe it. It'll be a monster! I always say this: You get a first single from me, I'mma get you up to gold. And it's hard to get you up to gold in this day.”
When asked about Jay-Z’s decision to retire he went straight to the point. “Jay should never chill,” he said. “We had a long talk, and I really talked to him. Jay-Z does it for the love. That's different. When somebody does it for the love, you don't stop. He has everything, but he's still current. A million people are buying his album regardless.”
“We wanna go to the world,” he added. “The world is 'Big Pimpin'.' 'Big Pimpin' ' is an international hit, so we wanna do 10 of those. Meaning, some of the songs gonna sound like M.I.A. would rap on some of the beats. You gonna be like, 'Whoa!' But it's Jay on 'em. That means it reaches everywhere.”
As always Tim’ went a little crazy in the last part of the interview. “I'mma have songs with bagpipes. The music is gonna be so worldwide, he'll be able to tour the rest of his life, maybe, off just this one album. The Jay-Z album is gonna be phenomenal. You know why? We don't care. We're doing great music just to do it. We doing it for our fans who love us to say we ain’t quit. I'm doing it 'cause that's my homeboy.”
Our iTunes awaits this massive project.
