Culture Shock Comes On Strong!, May 16, 2007
This review is from: Give It to Me (Audio CD)
Timbaland presents music that is sure to "give it to you"! This comes housed in a slim-line jewel case and features the title track in Radio Edit, Instrumental, and Enhanced Video along the track, "Come Around" from his album Timbaland Presents Shock Value. The R&B, rap, and catchy addictive hooks found in this CD are a nice mesh of sounds sure to get your juices flowing for more!
"Give It To Me" Featuring Nelly Furtado & Justin Timberlake Radio Edit [3:33] has a totally diverse cultural mix of elements. Nelly's vocals shine as she begins her singing portraying much confidence, appeal, and dance invitational lyrics. Timbaland steps in to a nicer deeper pitched sound adding spice as the drums, bass, and beats flow smoothly. Then Justin steps in to add a nice higher sounding pitch blending all three bringing on the "unique" threesome vocal styles! It's a joining of cultures definitely mysteriously hot!
"Give It To Me" Instrumental [3:55] is the same as the previous track but has no sung vocals. For fans of singing then this may be to your satisfaction. Despite the lack of vocals, the melody is not tiring, monotonous, boring, or lacking. For those who enjoy the drums Timbaland style this is great! The dance ambiance is also quite extraordinary!
"Come Around" Featuring M.I.A. [3:57] has to be my favorite track for the diverse cultural sound. The dance elements are fresh, the production "unique", and the style off the charts, club hot. Timbaland challenges his object of affection, adding electronica vocals, echoes, and new era techno effects!
