Timbaland

Timbaland released his latest album “Timbaland Presents: Shock Value II” last week and he’s continuing doing his rounds of promotions. Although he sold less than 40k in the first week in the US, he has tons to boast about! He stopped by a radio show and he touched on Lady GaGa and Ciara.

This is what he said about Lady GaGa:

What’s her name GaGa b-bla-bla? Yeah I wanna work with Lady GaGa, me and her are kinda the same style. I feel like she took my style (pauses) and ran with it… which is smart. I would do the same thing. I’ll put her on the re-package cos I’m a do a re-package.

Lol… Timbaland is the one who steals it and runs away with it. He did get a lot of heat from the online community. Check this youtube video out.

And Timbo talks bout Ciara being the next Aaliyah?

There’s no more R&B, so all I listen to is “baby girl” (Aaliyah). I was excited about Ciara. I gave her my blessings because she was in the right footpath, the right footsteps as I would say. I think that she was going in the right direction and I love her to death. People would say “Oh Ciara is the next Aaliyah” – yes she is. She keeps my girl alive, so when I hear Ciara a tear come out my eye, coz I’m like “wow, she ain’t forgotten”.”

That sound is still gonna be heard. These kids who don’t know [and know] Ciara will go “Who she sound like? Baby girl Aaliyah” and then they go back and buy the Aaliyah stuff and be like “Aaliyah sound better than her” or somethin’. The point is Aaliyah won’t be forgotten”

I know Timbaland is very close to Aaliyah and all… but seriously? Ciara the next Aaliyah? No offense to Ciara though…
