Timbaland has never seemed very comfortable in front of the camera, and collaborators, Nonetheless over the last year or two he has redoubled his efforts to achieve pop stardom, even if he’s not well suited for it. He has been writing himself into the hit songs he produces, turning his clients into duet partners. He spars with Justin Timberlake on “SexyBack” and “My Love” and flirts awkwardly with Nelly Furtado on “Promiscuous” and with the Pussycat Dolls on “Wait a Minute.”
All this has been building up to the release, on Tuesday, of “Timbaland Presents Shock Value” (Mosley Music Group/Interscope), his fifth album and his most ambitious. Timbaland now has more clout than ever. Over his sharp and twitchy beats, teen heartthrobs sound daring, established pop stars sound hip, rough rappers sound radio-friendly. “Shock Value” proves that just about everyone returns his phone calls. The guest list ranges from Fall Out Boy to Elton John, from Dr. Dre to 50 Cent. And for the first single, “Give It to Me,” he delivers a verse alongside Mr. Timberlake and Ms. Furtado. This albumis sure to be a hit.
