Seven years.
It’s startling to believe that it’s been that long since Missy Elliott released a studio album.
Indeed, fans of the star have waited with fervent patience, tiding themselves over with the vast array of material she cooked-up for other artists.
However, their patience is set to be rewarded this June when the game-changing femcee makes her long-awaited return.

To say the very least, the world of music would be a different place without the maestro that is Timbaland.
Despite being responsible for shaping the sounds of many a global sensation and with a career spanning over two decades, very little is known about the producer’s difficult personal life, which includes a battle with weight and the loss of close friend Aaliyah.
Now hear him tell his mind blowing story courtesy of E! below…
Renown for speaking a language of ‘HITS’, producer Timbaland isn’t one for making headlines. However, his recent comments about late protegee Aaliyah and his feelings for her certainly make for quite the intriguing read.

Time sure does fly. Like many, yours truly can remember exactly where I was upon hearing of the untimely passing of R&B force Aaliyah.
Yet with the 10 year anniversary of the tragedy which robbed the Urban diaspora of one of its brightest lights approaching, BET have opted to celebrate the singer’s short, but oh-so-influential life with a TV special - ‘Aaliyah: One In A Million’. Featuring an all-star cast of contributors, the show will air on August 25th at 8pm ET.
In the meanwhile, check out this sneak peek which sees Aaliyah’s longtime collaborators Missy Elliott and Timbaland reflect on their time with her.
Get familiar with ‘Pass At Me’, the latest effort by world renowned producer Timbaland featuring rapper Pitbull and DJ/Producer David Guetta.
Released on September 19th of this year, the single is expected to provide another hit for the producer and his collaborators who have all enjoyed major chart success within the last few months.
Check out a visual in support of the release below…

Check out the performances from the 2010 ‘Vh1 Hip-Hop Honors: The Dirty South’. The show comprised some of the biggest names in the game who paid tribute to the rap music’s leaders including Timbaland, Jermaine Dupri, Master P, J Prince, Organized Noise, 2 Live Crew as well as those from Miami, Texas and Atlanta. Peep the footage below:
Ciara and Paris Hilton partied the night away at Timbaland‘s 38th birthday party last night (April 28th). The pair joined the likes of Brandy, Ray J, Justin Timberlake, and Interscope head Jimmy Iovine, to help the hitmaker celebrate at Drai’s at The W Hotel Hollywood.
In a recent interview with VIBE, R&B crooner Ginuwine hit out at former mentor Timbaland. The 39 year old expressed his displeasure at being shunned by the hitmaker when recording his most recent LP, ‘A Mans Thoughts’, which debuted at #9 on the Billboard 200 last June.
Some visitors will remember Ginuwine, along with Timbaland, Missy Elliott, and the late Aaliyah, were a clique of sorts back in the 90′s. Now, it appears relationships are fractured to say the least.
