Timbaland And Ne-Yo Throwing Their "Hands In The Air"

Posted by Kevin Z. Rong Sunday, July 8, 2012 0 comments

Timbaland is back with a bang and team up with the R&B sensation Ne-Yo yet again, and premiered an incredibly high quality video for their fist-pumping dance/urban/pop collaboration, "Hands in the Air." The club festive party anthem isn't a single from Super-producer's new album. Rather, the record was featured on soundtrack of the upcoming never-ending dance movie, "Step Up Revolution."
"Step Up Revolution" is the fourth movie in the "Step Up" franchise. It follows 2010's "Step Up 3-D." The latest installment revolves around a group of dancers who use their dancing abilities in protesting and supporting their beliefs and principles. The movie will be in theaters July 27th. The 40-year-old Hip-Hop icon has been hard at work as he prepares for his long awaited comeback album and his new video shows exactly how far he has come from his obese past.
As a special treat, Kathryn McCormick, the actress and dancer who tackles the lead role of Emily in the upcoming film also appears in the video. The Marc Klassfeld-directed energetic video features a basic 'nightclub' theme, and is set inside a night club with a large crowd of people partying, full energy and moving their bodies and throwing their 'hands in the air' to the beat of the bass thumping track. The video also show us exclusive new footage from the actual "Step Up Revolution" film.
The clip opens with Timbaland by the bar flirting with McCormick who will try to further catch the attention of the hit-maker producer by breaking into a sexy number using a so-sexy, so-wow chair routine with a few of her girl-friends, while Ne-Yo is getting a private lap-dance show in the red-lighted room, and again proves he's one of the best R&B acts who can 'cross over' to the dance genre without a flaw. Splashed with a lot of colors literally, the clip ends with the dancers are doused in different colors of paint as they continue to dance along to the upbeat track.

Timbaland Teams Up with Pitbull & David Guetta In "Pass At Me"

Bikini clad babes rule the world in Timbaland's new island-themed video for his new single "Pass At Me," the first official single from Timbaland's forthcoming third installment of his album series "Shock Value III," which drops in November. From the gorgeous islanders to the breathtaking vistas, this fun bottle-popping video captures everything beautiful about tropical locations.
Timbaland teamed up with Cuba's own rapper Pitbull and French DJ David Guetta to create this fun-loving track, a record full of uptempo vibes that help with the rump shaking. The trio hit an island and look pleased with themselves as they enjoy the crystal ble waters and surround themselves with full of gorgeous models and native beauties for a good time. This uptempo track will definitely make you want to dance and the new "Pass At Me" video doesn't spare the fancy footwork.
It's a fun and tribal style clip, which wastes no time establishing its direction with an opening scene in which a bevy of bikini beach babes frolic in the water. Next, viewers see Pitbull, who hangs out on board for a deserted paradise filled with bootylicious dancers and serves as yacht captain as the vessel speeds through the water. The 'Planet Pit' MC opens the song and handles the bulk of the lyrics here and spends most of his time out on the waters.
Apparently, that much booty makes Timbaland crazed and the "Shock Value" rapper surrounds himself with dancing hotties, dressed in red carnival-type outfits who stays on dry land, and enjoys watching girls in tribal-themed, bright red bikinis dance around him. He mostly just makes odd faces as he looks at cuties and yells, "Oh, my God!" While Guetta finally shows up in some footage of one of his massively attended DJ shows for the final minute, as the scene shifts to a concert setting, with the French DJ who produces the single spins turntable and pumps up the crowd on stage performing a sold-out live concert for thousands of screaming fans.

Michelle Branch And Timbaland Make A "Getaway" Together

Posted by Kevin Z. Rong Thursday, June 10, 2010 1 comments

Ever feel like you need to add some colour into your life and "Getaway" from the ordinary? Grammy-winner Michelle Branch and R&B/Hip-Hop producer Timbaland teamed up with MINI Cooper's new Countryman car to create this video inspired by the idea of getting away. The 26-year-old singer, best known for having a string of pop hits in the early 2000s, including "Everywhere," "All You Wanted," and "Breathe" before ditching pop to go country in the now defunct duo The Wreckers. She's been inching toward a comeback since late, last year.
"Getaway" is an upbeat song about wanting to escape from life's stressors for awhile and is expected to appear in Branch's upcoming solo studio album "Everything Comes and Goes," and it apparently the car inspired Branch to write "Getaway." "I saw the new car and I was inspired to write a song about getting away and getting out from the everyday confinements of life. Sometimes the fix for that is taking a road trip, so I worked on an exciting project with Timbaland and he produced the track with me."
The music video sees Branch hooking up with Timbaland in studio. The country, pop/rock singer is laying her vocal and strumming her guitar in the recording booth, while the rapper/producer is sitting behind the mixing table. "I love Michelle Branch, I love what she does," Tim said of his newest collaborator. "What I did was take her beautiful soft voice on my grungy, hard beats. Country meets Timbo." The excitement for the project is mutual. "I was so excited [to work with Timbaland]," Branch said. "My favorite part about music is when you can cross genres and try something new... We're very proud of it."
Branch's compelling new album for Warner Nashville has been long in the making and well worth the wait. "Everything Comes And Goes" is a breakthrough effort once and for all establishing Branch as a significant, grown up talent in her own right. It's a deeply personal statement of purpose from a singer-songwriter who's already experienced success in a variety of formats over the course of nearly a decade as a recording artist. Yet for all that she has already accomplished in her life. The resulting album offers the powerful, emotional and ultimately life-affirming sound of a gifted singer-songwriter who left some pieces of her heart behind, but found some new pieces along the way too. "I never consider what an album's about while I’m recording it," Branch says finally. "But in the end, I guess that 'Everything Comes And Goes' is really a record about passion--about wanting it, about losing it and then finding it all over again."

Timbaland Team Up With Justin Timberlake For "Carry Out" Clip

Posted by Kevin Z. Rong Saturday, February 20, 2010 0 comments

Super producer Timbaland teamed up with Justin Timberlake in the video for their duet "Carry Out," which was originally filmed in December 2009 consisting mostly of live performance footage of Timbaland and Timberlake performing the song, it was supposed to premiere in January 2010 before it got shelved. In late January 2010, it was announced that a new video is going to be shot with director Bryan Barber, and premiered Friday on VEVO. This new video witnesses both super-sized talents feast on an assortment of eye candy and flirting with the ladies in the drive-in food outlet.
"Carry Out," a southern term used for restaurants where customers primarily pick up their orders, is Timbaland's third single from his third album "Shock Value II." The song was co-written and features Timberlake. Timbaland has said this is his favorite track on the album. This particular video showcases Timabland and Timberlake's chemistry as they dance and rap while models dressed as waitresses and French maids take their orders. The pair chant during the second verse. The clip ends with each model biting into a piece of chocolate cake and cherries with a smile, proving that food is still the way to a man's heart.
Timbaland recently said that he's done with hip-hop production and Timberlake have a long history of collaborating together, most notably on Timberlake's No.1 sophomore solo album, 2006's "FutureSex/LoveSounds" where the duo played with Prince-like rhythms and electronica, culminating in the ubiquitous single "My Love" featuring T.I. Last month during the producer/rapper's Hollywood show at the House of Blues, Timberlake joined his friend onstage for a performance of "Carry Out" along with "SexyBack" and "My Love." Timberlake also recently showed his clothing line, William Rast, during New York Fashion Week. The singer described the collection as a bridge between music and fashion. "Well, I think since the beginning of rock and roll, people have wanted to dress like rock stars," he told MTV News backstage at his label's fashion show. "I still find old Mick Jagger jackets that I wish I could pull out of his closet or something. Of course, they wouldn't fit me very tight. I think we all want to dress like rock stars."
Yeah, the man may have turned his back on all Hip-Hop not featuring a certain Shawn Corey Carter, but Timbaland still proves he can win with Pop as his profession. If you haven't find yourself humming this melody at any given moment, just wait. You will. Infectious like the plague, a lil' cowbell, triangle and Timberlake go a long way to leaving a stain in your memory bank.

Timbaland and Katy Perry Pair Up For "If We Ever Meet Again"

Posted by Kevin Z. Rong Monday, January 18, 2010 0 comments

American Grammy Award-winning record producer, singer and rapper Timbaland is coming to a museum in the music video for his latest single "If We Ever Meet Again", a song about flirting with a stranger at a club, teaming with "I Kissed a Girl" hitmaker Katy Perry, who has at least traded up since her last "featured" appearance.
Timbaland lends his AutoTuned vocals to the song "If We Ever Meet Again", which is the fourth single from über producer's latest third studio album, "Shock Value II". The song will serve as the second official new single in the UK, being released on February 15.
Timbaland told MTV that will.i.am's work on "I Gotta Feeling" inspired him to make "If We Ever Meet Again". The music video was filmed in December 2009. It was directed by Paul "Coy" Allen, who directed "Morning After Dark" and "Say Something". He added that he wants the video to be serious and maybe have Bitchy Perry playing his guardian angel: "I wanna make something deep, I don't know if I wanna make it like a relationship. I wanna make it like she saved my life with whatever depression I was going through, whether it be drug depression, weight-loss depression — something. ... Will she be around if I go through this again?" Not sure we picked that up in, but we did get a four minute music video incarnation of The Thomas Crown Affair.
The Paul "Coy" Allen directed video follows a beautiful woman who makes headlines as a burglary suspect. Timbaland picked a curious moment to start outright singing on his own tracks, but he's the most influential producer of the decade, he's earned it. The chorus is perfect for huge crowd sing-a-longs, and we'll probably have to bash our heads against the wall a couple hundred times to get it out of of our brain, so well done, Timbaland, for dishing out yet another song that will be played on the radio nonstop.

Timbaland Debut 'Morning After Dark' Ft. SoShy & Nelly Furtado

Posted by Kevin Z. Rong Friday, November 27, 2009 0 comments

The hip-hop record producer and rapper Timbaland is back in stride, and has premiered exclusively a music video on Timbaland's official website in support of his single "Morning After Dark," features an additional rap verse from Portuguese-Canadian singer Nelly Furtado and his newly-signed French rapper SoShy. "Morning After Dark" is the lead single from his upcoming third studio album, "Shock Value 2," a consciously-styled sequel with an equally intriguing castlist (Katy Perry, Daughtry, Miley Cyrus) which is due for December 8 U.S. release.
Once upon a time, Timbaland was quite the trendsetter with his cutting edge beats and crazy samples. Those days seem to be behind him if his latest video "Morning After Dark" is anything to go by and he's jumped on the vampire-bandwagon. The Twilight-inspired cheesy video/short film was an over 7 minutes in length longer than the song itself and directed by Paul "Coy" Allen, the video features a story plot based on a sexy girl who's spending her last week in Italy reluctantly heads off to a party who has several mysterious encounters with vampires similar to the film 'Twilight' were seen following her but whenever they try to hurt her, Timbaland and SoShy come in their way and trying to guard the girl from mysterious men and protect her. The powerhouse producer recently spilled the beans on crafting a sequel to the song saying "It fits everything going on with the vampire theme, and everything with 'Twilight.' I also have part two to the single too, so it's like a whole little story line to it."
Last Sunday night, the 2009 American Music Awards brought a lot of excitement for music lovers and the event was graced by the popular music sensations of the country, and they made the night full of colors and memorable with their performance. Timbaland made the best use of the night by appearing with both SoShy and Furtado to perform the song from an upcoming album is expected to raise the popularity of the album before its launch. It was one of my personal favorite performances of the night. Timbaland flirtatiously harmonizes over a galactic-sounding, double-speed piano and thumping beats. It has not only given wide exposure to his track but also to the new artist Soshy as she was introduced to thousands of people by this track and it would prove a better start for her career. The trio also hit up 'The Tonight Show' on Monday to belt out the tune for Conan O'Brien. Although, "belt" might not exactly be the proper term. It sounded like Timbaland was sing-rapping over a guide track, but you could still hear his live voice despite all the advanced technology.
