Timbaland's Fourth Single is "Scream"
"The shock of Timbaland Presents: Shock Value has turned to awe after spinning off three consecutive No 1 hits. Set to be the fourth is "Scream" featuring Keri Hilson and Nicole Scherzinger. "Scream" follows "Give It To Me" featuring Nelly Furtado and Justin Timberlake, which topped Billboard's Hot 100 chart (sales of 248,000 digital downloads catapulted the track from No 42 in one week, making it the third biggest rise to No 1 in the chart's history); "The Way I Are" featuring Keri Hilson and D.O.E., which hit No 1 on the Pop 100 chart and remains Top 20 on the Hot 100 (issue date December 8); and "Apologize" featuring OneRepublic, currently No 1 Pop 100 and No 2 Hot 100.
The shock has reached around the world too. In late November, Timbaland joined The Beatles, Madonna, and ABBA as the only artists to simultaneously hold the No 1 and No 2 positions on the Australian singles chart, with "Apologize" and "The Way I Are," respectively. In 1985, Madonna was the last artist to achieve that landmark. "Apologize" also annihilated by nearly 25% the previous record for the number of downloads in one week. Timbaland Presents: Shock Value has already reached platinum in Australia and Canada, and is nearing platinum in the U.S.
Furtado, OneRepublic, Hilson, and D.O.E. are labelmates on super-producer Timbaland's Mosley Music Group label via Interscope Records. OneRepublic's debut album, Dreaming Out Loud, which includes the original version of "Apologize," was released on November 20."

Mary J. Blige Is No Robot -- Singer Admits She's 'Imperfect' On New Album
'I'm just a mess like every other person that's a mess out there,' she says.
By Jayson Rodriguez, with reporting by Liz Hernandez
After pulling off a Breakthrough in 2005 — one that helped earn her three Grammy Awards and a heap of other honors — you'd think everything would finally be A-OK with Mary J. Blige nowadays. Well, it is ... sort of.
Sure, she's been honored as an icon, she's enjoying her marriage to music-industry-exec husband Kendu Isaacs, and she's as beloved as ever by her peers. But Mary just wouldn't be Mary if she didn't have a battle on her hands. On her eighth studio album, Growing Pains, due November 27, Blige puts up a different kind of fight — to keep her breakthrough going.
"It's not reliving where I been. [The album is] just based on where I am," she told MTV News on Monday on the Los Angeles set of the video for her new single, "Just Fine." "So many people are like, 'I'm perfect.' I'm so imperfect, that's why I'm able to let everything out and let people see everything. 'Cause I'm just a mess like every other person that's a mess out there. And it's going to take probably a lifetime to get to a point in my life where I'm like, 'Oh, I'm perfect.' I don't think that will ever happen. So as long as I'm a human being and I'm not perfect, I'm able to say I'm having some growing pains. Because in order to sustain where you are once you made such a breakthrough that everyone is looking at you, now everyone is like, 'Ooh, is she gonna make a mistake?' Yes, I'm going to make a mistake. Yes, I'm still gonna do things. And that's what Growing Pains is about, it's about finally not whining about the pain, Mary J. Blige, and accepting the pain that comes with growing."
Her lead single, the up-tempo "Just Fine," displays Blige's newfound spirit. The track was produced by Tricky Stewart and the Dream, the duo behind Rihanna's "Umbrella." On "Just Fine," Blige zestfully sings: "Feels so good/ When you're doing all the things that you want to do/ Get the best out of life, treat yourself to something new/ Keep your head."
"[That song] was written based on me having a good day," Blige explained. "You know, I can have 30 or 40 [bad days]. I can have as many bad days as anyone. But I choose to say, 'I'm just fine.' Right now. You know those days when your hair looks good, you're not sitting in traffic, your man's not acting like an idiot. You're just fine. So it's OK to have those days. So instead of coming with something ungrateful to the universe, how about I come with something first that's says, 'You know what? It's OK. Enjoy this day if you're having a great day.' "
For Growing Pains, Blige also worked with Ne-Yo, Stargate, Dre & Vidal, and Timbaland.
The Ne-Yo-penned "Work in Progress" is a favorite of Blige's, she said. But she's not sure if the song will be her second single just yet. Other tracks set to be included on the album include "Roses," "Talk to Me" and "Feel Like a Woman." The latter, she said, is based on the idea that it's OK for women to receive gifts from men and that they shouldn't be called gold diggers for it. "Sometimes you got to enjoy him splurging on you," she said.
The dark days are long gone for Blige, but she's still drawing from her trials and tribulations in hopes to never revisit the pitfalls. Even if it hurts, she wants to put pleasure over pain.
"I got all the stuff where, in my relationship, when I'm having a hard time with myself, or I'm even having a hard time with [my husband], because we're not perfect. We love each other, but we're people! We're not robots or machines! We're just striving to do the right thing, those are the people that have it the hardest. Because it's easy to just always do the wrong thing and be comfortable. But to break the comfort zone of just falling back to, 'Well, it's comfortable here being pissed off all the time.' It hurts when you have to smile and you don't want to smile, but the best thing to do is to smile."

Timbaland to appear on ABC soap opera The Associated Press Article Launched: 09/19/2007 11:28:14 AM PDT NEW YORK-Timbaland is trying something new. The 35-year-old rapper-producer, who has collaborated on No. 1 songs for Justin Timberlake and Nelly Furtado, will appear on ABC's "One Life to Live" on Oct. 9, the network said Wednesday. "This is a new experience for me, I am looking forward to having a great time and sharing my music!" he said in a statement. Timbaland and Keri Hilson will perform the hit single "The Way I Are" from his new album, "Timbaland Presents Shock Value." Mary J. Blige, Erykah Badu and Chris Botti have also performed on the show.

Missy Elliott The Countdown Out in December In August, a group named "Reunite Missy and Timbaland" popped up on MySpace. It was a response from fans who feared the duo had split up because Timbaland was quoted saying that Elliott's sixth album was too over-the-top for hip-hop. "He was saying it in a good way," laughs Elliott. "Like, I'm so far-left, people might not be ready for me." If the disc's hyper pace is too crazy, Timbaland is partly to blame: he and Nate "Danja" Hills cooked up its rowdy, "fun-for-the-club" beats. T-Pain also makes a cameo on the album, which Elliott cut in Miami, New York and Los Angeles. "I never want to give them another 'Get Ur Freak On' or another 'Work It,'" she says. "We're trying different stuff, just going in blind and hoping that people will be with it. ---Rolling Stone

Nelly Furtado and Timbaland hit pay -- and platinum -- dirt with the dance tracks on the Canadian singer's latest album, "Loose." Now they're looking to rock things up a bit.
Furtado tells Billboard.com she and Timbaland are planning to put together a rock band, although she adds that "I don't think it'd be, like, a real rock band. It'd be more like our version of alternative, so it wouldn't necessarily be like heavy and guitar-driven. It would be left field, and not necessarily pop."
Furtado, who launches her 17-date North American Get Loose Tour on May 30, says there's no timetable yet for the rock project but notes, "Tim's been really enthusiastic about us working together again real soon."
The purported band's name is also up in the air, she says: "We keep arguing over names. I want these really weird, subversive names, and (Timbaland) wants these mysterious, like, 'Lord of the Rings' kind of names. We can't decide."
"Loose," meanwhile, continues to roll even after selling five million albums worldwide and being certified gold or platinum in 28 countries. Furtado will follow the current single, "All Good Things (Come to an End)" with a fifth, "In God's Hands," and, she says, "there's talk of a sixth and seventh single, believe it or not.
"I mean, Nickleback is on their seventh single. Pussycat Dolls are on their seventh single. Sometimes there's these albums where you can stretch to seven singles. I like that 'cause I think the album is good and I want people to hear as much of it as possible before I go away again."
Noting that "time off is when I get ideas," Furtado says her next recording project -- rock band with Timbaland notwithstanding -- will likely take a different direction.
"I don't see myself recording in English again any time soon," she explains. "I really want to do a Spanish and Portuguese project -- and I have no plan on when I'm gonna do that. There was talk of rushing something out early in the year, and it just didn't feel right. So I said, 'I don't want to rush this. Let's wait and do something in the future."
