Timbaland really had crickets chirping, panning from left ear to right, the whole "One in a Million"

[dontreadthis]

this could have been produced last night and I would still think this sounds like some shyt from years in the future. that bassline, the drum syncopation, it's beautiful.



bonus: the greatness of this vocal sample is hard to top



all the hallmarks of a GOAT producer are there.

• distinct, hard to duplicate sound
• a go to producer for hits
• decades of longevity
• could sample horse neighs and dog barks without it sounding ridiculous

EDIT to include linked instrumentals
90 or so instrumentals for y'all, a memory refresher of sorts lol.

Ginuwine & Timbaland are the R&B version of Snoop & Dre

This was always the best timberland beat with aaliyah to me

 

[HacksawJimThuggin]

Tim was great in those days. But ever since he's been hit or miss for me, mostly miss.

Part of it is him falling off and part of it is my taste gravitating to a more soulful sound while his production tends to be "louder".

Missy & Timbaland are the R&B version of Snoop & Dre

 

[FuckAllY'all77]

The heat Timbo gave Aaliyah was crazy....this is a personal favorite I never see mentioned

 

[dontreadthis]

lol did this nikka sample a man falling to his death??

I personally liked the Gin & Tim collabs over Missy's. Ginuwine's first 2 albums sold it for me
