Staying in the business for more than a decade, Timbaland definitely is the pro. Suddenly everybody wants to work with the 'hottest producer in town'. Def Jam Recording artist Fabolous demanded Timbaland to give a hand on his single "Make Me Better", Bloc Party frontman Kele Okereke was desperate for his assistance and even Madonna trusted him to guide her R&B passion. After catapulting numerous artists to stardom, Timbaland deserved to enjoy the piece that he solely owned. His second solo album "Timbaland Presents Shock Value" was released on April 3, 2007 and seized the 5th post by moving 138,000 copies in the first week. It was his best chart topping effort in his entire solo career. The same fate, only better, happened to his first single featuring Nelly Furtado and Justin Timberlake "Give It to Me" that absorbed 148,000 digital downloads and smashed the #1 slot in Billboard 100. He is most wanted for one solid reason. His works can't cheat to receive the good reviews.
