I gotta admit, I was very skeptical from him announcing his so-called 'retirement'. But with all I've listened to, I tried it out.
TOTAL RATING: 5/10.
The beauty of Timbaland is you don't actually have to hear him much. His featured artists do the work for him. Sadly the featured artists on this collaboration leave much to be desired.
Songs To Notice
Track 2: Carry Out (Feat. Justin Timberlake) - This song was one of the released singles of the CD. It's decent. Some lyrics are silly but what rap isn't it? ('Cause it's me, you, you, me, me, you, all night. Have it your way, foreplay, before I feed your appetite' to just name one). The Timberlake vocals are good so I rate this song higher than most.
Track 3: Lose Control (Feat. JoJo) - This is the best song on the CD. Hands down. It's not even featured as a single release, yet the background music/beat and the vocals of JoJo are actually so catchy you'll find yourself listening to it over and over. I'm just amazed it wasn't a single. I rate this the reason the CD even got 5. (It sounds like Paul Wall at the end but it's just Timbaland without autotune.)
Track 5: Say Something (Feat. Drake) - Let's face it. Drake's hot right now. So obviously this song was a single from the CD. And obviously I think it's pretty good. My second favorite on the album. Autotune level = 7/10.
Track 7: We Belong To Music (Feat. Miley Cyrus) - I just have to mention this one. The fact that Miley Cyrus can do every single style of music and make it sound catchy is crazy. Don't get me wrong. This song is VERY silly. But at the same time, I can't deny how it has me tapping my feet.
Track 8: Morning After Dark (Feat. Nelly Furtado) - Mentioning the singles of the album, this is yet another one. It's not bad. It's not good. It's just meh. The hook is the only part of it I found myself liking.
Track 9: If We Ever Meet Again (Feat. Katy Perry) - The last single from the album. Only mentioning this because it's a single. I like Katy Perry, I love her breasts, and I love her body. But I'm not a fan of this song. That's just the truth.
Songs That Suck
Track 6: Tomorrow In The Bottle (Feat. Chad Kroeger) - Uh. Nickelback = Horrible. The sooner you realize that the better. This song is completely pathetic.
Track 14: Long Way Down (Feat. Daughtry) - Oh my God. I didn't buy this album for you to collaborate with shitty rockers. And it doesn't even sound good.
Track 11: Ease Off The Liquor (FEAT. NO ONE?!) - It's just Timbaland. With his hands on Autotune. It's a horrible none-combination of him and no one. So I just ended up turning this song. I'm sorry Tim, you gotta get a featured artist.
Autotune level = 9/10.
