dude, i was listneing to that first timbo & magoo album, so many heaters ...I miss upbeat, positive r&b. Like the only "upbeat" r&b right now are songs that should've been trap rap




Edit: BTW, damn shame Timbaland doesn't have his pre-shock value albums available on Spotify, nikka on his :mjpls: shyt

Aaliyah's 2nd and 3rd aren't available either, but I can understand why

Insignificant posting from an insignificant poster
Real talk this was the era that I really got into rnb, I was a young cat and my moms used to bump that Ginuwine in the whip, had me jammin to it. I remember when Aaliyah died, that was the first time I actually felt sadness about a celebrity dying. I wonder if they will ever drop Ginuwine's version of I Miss You.

Timbo was doing some ridiculous things with his production back them. 100% Ginuwine was :ohlawd:.

Dude switched up Flash Gordon theme song and found a way to drop the Godzilla roar(:mindblown:) into a song and make it sound dope.

I could go on and on but dude's production back then is the GOAT to me. Bar none.

Yeah Aaliyah was cute but everytime I saw her videos I would immediatly think of her and R Her song writing skills and Timbos beats kept her afloat.
This. I loved aaliyah but she had struggle vocals. Heard we beed a resolution the other day first time in ages and was like :scusthov: without her writers and timbo shes the 90s/early 00s cassie
