Listening to Timbaland's album was a pretty huge disappointment considering how awesome some of his tracks for other people have been, so I want to make a compilation to restore my faith but I seem to be suffering long term memory loss. Obviously there's Missy, Aaliyah, Furtado, Timberlake, Jigga and a bunch of other really famous tracks, but anyone want to help jog my memory? Or any personal favourites that are maybe a bit more obscure?

you need "one in a million" for sure

jay-z tracks....

big pimpin
hola hovito (maybe my favorite timb beat ever, and easily the most underrated track on the blueprint)



oh you definitely need peetey pablo's raise up on there too.

tweet "oops"

?

Already had Aaliyah, Jay-Z and Tweet, will check out the Petey Pablo thanks. It's weird, seems like Tim's been this dominant figure over music over the past decade, but when I think about it I can only place a handful of tunes. And when you look at a production discography, not many ring a bell. Maybe his influence overshadows his actual input? Anyway, keep 'em coming folks!

oh man, ooops actually may be my favorite tim track ever....

too many to choose from

I've always had a soft spot for the following tracks:

Missy - Hot Boyz
Bubba Sparxxx - Ugly
Jay Z - Is That Yo Chick ( got to love the horn sample)
Aaliyah - More Than A Woman

oh damn hot boyz is great. probably one of the more underrated missy singles.

bubba sparxxx: deliverance
nelly furtado: do it, say it right
ginuwine: pony
justin timberlake: my love
diddy: diddyrock
kylie dean: make me a song
young jeezy: 3 am
timbaland: bounce

oh man, pony is incredible too.

best kylie is 'keep it movin'

"Ryde or Die Bitch"
"jigga what jigga who"
"one in a million"
"we need a resolution"
"the rain"
"are you that somebody"
"lobster and scrimp"
"what about us"
"U can't resist"
"Snoopy track"
"try again"
"lick shots"
"bubba talk"
"indian carpet"
"roll out"
"ching ching"
"nowhere"
"get on dis motorcycle"
"who is she 2 u" (awesome leon ware sample!)

entirety of 100% ginuwine but esp "Whats So Different"

Timberland and Magoo- Luv 2 Luv U

ludacris - phat rabbit
destiny's child - get on the bus

that one jodeci song

nicole wray - "make it hot" [feat. missy elliott]

try again is sublime.

how does "what about us" go again? or who is it by? i vaguely remember that one...


i love the role i've taken in this thread. not contributing at all, but just championing the suggestions of others. i should do it more often.

haha its a flawless boarding technique


what about us is by total feat. missy

The first Total album is CLASSIC. I was listening to it the other day for the first time in years... "Kissin' You" may be my fave 90s R&b ballad.

I know Aaliyah's been mentioned already, but 'One in a Million', 'Are U That Somebody' and 'Try Again' are so great they bear mentioning one mo' 'gain.

I was going to mention 'I Want U Back', by Mel B, but was surprised to learn he had nothing to do with that. What a surreally good song. 'Cry Me A River', then. It has the best Timb guest spot going, especially in the video when he's rubbing his hands and pulling bizarre faces. Also 'Ice Box' was oddly good.

'Ice Box' was Timbaland? I had no idea. What a good song.

wtf

cry me a river? #1 single of the decade and it hasn't been mentioned yet

Yes it has.

"We Need A Resolution," "I Care 4 U," "Hot Like Fire," "If Your Girl Only Knew"

I think the Neptunes have a lot more hidden gems that remain semi-undiscovered, just because those dudes were so much more mercenary about producing for anyone.

Probably, yeah. Like bizarre carny track 9s on NORE albums and prog-RnB on Kelis albums that got erased from existence.

remember Philly's Most Wanted or that song with Beenie Man?
If T.I. hadn't blown up since his debut would be one of these too...

of course the real hidden genius producer of the era was KLC

real headz know the deal

Deej gets 25 bonus points for mentioning "Ching Ching", niiiiiice.

I'm not an Aaliyah fangirl but "We Need A Resolution" is a hot track.

I wish I had musical talent and a lo of cash so Timbo could produce my record.

I endorse these, especially that Destiny's Child song.

Since it's looking like this comp. might be mostly bangers, may I suggest Timbaland and Magoo's "I'm Music"? It was the song that Timbo recorded with Beck, but their version didn't make the final cut of Indecent Proposal. It's like the greatest jam that Prince never wrote. I can't think of any other ones people might have missed because I'm so tired right now, but what's been mentioned already is crazy hot.

EDIT: Okay, just remembered Ms. Jade's "Jade's A Champ." That's the hidden gem you're looking for if there ever was one.

what about 'big head'

real hidden gem:

sincere - what!


one of the best tracks from last year.

There's a frightening lack of Ginuwine in the thread. Was Aaliyah's "Rock the Boat" not produced by Tim? I love that song.

funny thing about Timbaland: he's a great producer and has produced a ton of good tracks and some of the best singles of the last 10/15 years, but if you really whittle it down, it's sort of surprising how few truly GREAT songs he's produced.

"Big Head" is good and all, but it's more like C-level Timbaland, which is B-level by anyone else's standards.

Oh, also there's "Up Jump Da Boogie" and "Here We Come", both including Magoo and Missy. But "Up Jumps Da Boogie" has got Aaliyah on it, so hmmm....

My personal favorite Timbo track is probably "Beep Me 911" by Missy.

Some other good ones

Aaliyah & DMX-Come Back In One Piece
Ginuwine-So Anxious, I'll Do Anything/I'm Sorry
Cee-Lo-I'll Be Around





So many that it's scary.

This is a Timbaland track? Oh snap I LOVE this one. It has to be included in any Timbaland or Aaliyah mix.

haha we said Pony and his entire second album, what more do you want!


great song, but not him


??? did you read thread at all???

So I skimmed thru! Calm down. I didn't catch the Ginuwine references made back there, sorry.

there is timbaland overload on this board at the moment. his worst work is with penis nose and helium.

i was listening to some Bubba Sparrx, Tim was so awesome back then. Deliverance is an incredible album,and the one he did before that, wuith Ugly. Tim was GOAT then. he still good now but his ongs of late dont have much replay value.
