SHOCK VALUE - SHOCKINGLY GOOD?

Advantages: some great tracks to dance to, an eclectic mix of styles and collaborators
Disadvantages: a couple of dull 'uns

I'm not necessarily a person who instantly runs out and buys an album on the strength of one song but I HAVE been a big fan of many Timbaland-produced tracks in the past, from classic Aaliyah tunes to the more recent ones he has done with Nelly Furtado or Justin T . . . AND after hearing "Give it To Me" I knew I had to give the album a spin and see if it was worth the hype I'd heard about it. And within the space of one listen I was hooked - it is ...

Shock Value, Great value

Advantages: Diversity, Great tracks
Disadvantages: M.I.A

...of his first album entitled Shock Value. ...Album Review... 1. Oh Timbaland This contains a piano intro which is taken from a Nina Simone track. This track then features a thumpind drum beat and some funky guitar licks. This is a great intro to the album and gives a taster of what is to come from the rest of the album. 2. Give it to me This starts with "is it going, is it going, i don't know" This has a thumping beat that knocks through the track, ...

A really well worked track that is one of the best on the album. This track has A great flow. 8. Boardmeeting This has a thumping beat and some sweet aha aha female vocals. This track features Hip Hop artist Magoo. It is a nice track but doesnt have that ...

Value for Money

Some valueable tracks, some shocking tracks

Advantages: 'Apologise', 'The Way I Are' and 'Give It To Me'
Disadvantages: some are just terrible

Timbaland has a knack for turning everything he touches to gold recently - he has garnered international attention for his work with Nelly Furtado, Justin Timberlake and others. Now he releases something of his own, an album of collaborations produced by himself. Overall the album is good, there are some absolutely fantastic tracks and great potential singles, but there are also a few turkeys aswell. Here is my track by track break down: TRACK ...
...being replaced with 'Timbaland'. Its not the best for the opening track, but it is good and well produced. I can't quite fathom the beat for it and it takes a few listens to appreciate it fully. 6/10 TRACK 2: Give It To Me The first single release from the album. This sees Timbaland collaborating with Nelly Furtado and Justin. The vocals are equally distributed between the 3, and the overall result is a fantastic beat fuelled track. I love this ...

Shocktastic!

Advantages: Edgy, variety, different.
Disadvantages: The Fall Out Boy Track is just a misfit!

Shock Value, pretty aptly named actually, but one hell of a creation. Timbaland, never even heard a song where he actually put more effort into the vocals than into the production of an album in it's entirety. For surely that is what he is known best for. I recently reviewed P Diddy's latest album, and am a bit slow on the uptake when R'n'B had it's heyday in the 90's, so forgive me for being a bit awe-struck by some of the stuff I'm discovering ...
...it's a factual point? SHOCK VALUE: A cannily structured album, unhindered by the inclusion of some top artists such as Nelly Furtado and Justin Timberlake, but dig a little further into the track list and you'll be surprised to find who else appears on this 19 track stunner! You'll be amazed that the likes of Elton John, Dr. Dre, Missy Elliot and Keri Hilson all stake a place on the star-list, and Timbalands' collaboration with these artists catapults ...

Shock Value - Timbaland

Advantages: Such a variety of genres put together with great, slick production
Disadvantages: A few weaks tracks, and would have been great to have Promiscuous Girl included

Having never been a big fan of albums and finding many in recent years to be peppered with bland filler tracks to buttress the obligatory 3 singles - Timbaland's 2007 release came as somewhat of a treat for me. The album is a fantastic mix of styles, tempos and artists, and it seems that Timbaland has gone all out in putting every piece of his best material into the CD. With everything from rocky tracks featuring Fall Out Boy (One and Only) to pop/r'n'b ...
...John (2 Man Show) this album has something to offer almost every listener. The album is packed with gems that will live on long as some of the best from the decade with 'The Way I Are', 'Apologise' and the perfect driving track 'Scream' all appearing. Whilst some songs are less memorable - 'Come and Get Me' featuring 50 Cent being one such track - and the quality of the lyrics is a slight mixed bag, the majority of the tracks are upbeat, tuneful ...

Timbaland - Shock Value

Advantages: Brilliant music all the way through
Disadvantages: None !!

I loved a couple of Timbalands songs, including The Way I Are & Apologise never thought about buying the album untill we were on a long car journey and wanted a new album so went looking for Timbaland as i knew i liked a couple of songs already. Took a while to find it but when i did i couldn't be more pleased with it. I love nearly all the songs that are on this album and it has hardly left the car CD player since i bought it. I would definately ...
...one of the best albums out at the moment. The cover is original with brillaint design and clear track list on the back. Brilliant value for money as far as CDs at supermarket prices go, i would definately recommend this to other people if they are into this kind of music. ...

TIMBALAND PRESENTS - one of the best EVER albums

Advantages: Every track is awesome
Disadvantages: N/A

As a new-commer to the producing genius of Timbaland, i had no idea what to expect from this album except for 'give it to me' which had been released prior to the album release and reached #1 on the 15th April 2007. After founding a new record label, Mosely Music Group (MMG), in 2006, the music industry has been gretly impacted by Timbaland with him playing a vital role in many artists new albums such as Nelly Furtado's album 'Loose' which reached ...
...featured on a few tracks such as 'Sexy Back' (#1 on 3/9/06) on Justin Timberlake's new album 'FutureSex / LoveSounds', and noticed that JT along with numerous other well known artists were also features on the 'Shock value' album including Nelly Furtado, Missy Elliot, Dr. Dre and Fall out boy. Thinking that 'Give it to me' would be hthe best track i could'nt believe that every track was as good as or better than this especially; 'One&Only'- Featuring ...

Timberland Album - Good Mixture

Advantages: Two genres into one album
Disadvantages: Some weak links

This is my first timberland album. This album has a good mixture of tracks and some really good collaborations. Again this is on my album and I listen to this album at least once or twice a week, I think you will love 16 out of 19 tracks on the album then ones I didn't like, where the kind of tracks that are just demo versions to make numbers on the album im sorry to say. but 16 tracks of the album where different, you can sing too, good vocals ...
...his 16 tracks I like some in my hip-hop fav's and some in my RnB fav's. This album is worth buying for the music and its value for money but this album falls into RnB and Hip-hop so if you like just on genre then don't buy the album i recommend. Collorations are with the following Justin Timberlake Keri Hilson Attitude Elton John One Republic Sebastion Fallout Boy Nicole Scherzinger 50 Cent Missy Elliott and Dr-Dre. The ones that stand ...

TIMBALAND! In my eyes one of the greatest/most talented producers of all time. Every artist he works with brings out his best qualities as he brings out theirs. it is fascinating how a man can have such power over a song and make you listen to it multiple times OVER and OVER again.

Timberland Shock Value

Advantages: All tracks in album are super made
Disadvantages: no out of order tracks

...world. When he released the Shock Value in July 31, 2007, i was like oh my God. This was the best i ever heard of him. With his high level beats thats wall shaking and always dancing in the clubs style. The tracks in the album like the Oh timberland give it to me scream throw it on me apologize and 2 man show made me almost cry for joy. I loved these tracks like heaven. I will never stay without having them in my car, bedroom, sitting room just ...
...was 2x Platinum in the UK and made 600,000 sales after its first week of release. This album lives forever. I love Timberland and his unique style of instrumentals that follow with his wording in all his tracks and that makes him a difference in the RnB, HipHop world. Success Timbo ...
