This is what Timbaland said on the matter: “I’m definitely a risk taker with my music. I like to challenge the new sounds. If I can challenge whatever’s out there, then I’m good. My style is to take something unexpected and make it into a hit. That’s what I do. I have ideas whirring around my head all the time. I listen to a lot of weird music. I go to India, yeah. I know Indian people. I know somebody in every culture. I go overseas and gather my sound.” Timbaland really doesn’t take as many risks as he may think… nobody’s going to sue him for being original. But take a look at the Black Eyed Peas, now those are risk takers! That much plagiarizing is what even Timbaland himself might call a very big risk.

Chris Cornell’s long-awaited Timbaland produced album, Scream, is reaching stores on 3/10.  Chris has been keeping busy rehearsing with his new band and talking with his fans on his blog to gear up for the release.  The front man hasn’t picked up an electric guitar since the break-up of his legendary group Soundgarden back in the late 90’s, but according to his latest blog entry on ChrisCornell.com, he’s thinking of busting them out for his upcoming tour:

“Hi people. Here is an open question. Since I got my guitars back I have been considering playing guitar live again. Who thinks I should pick it up again? I play guitar all day every day as I am always working on new songs. Let me know if you think I should hit it live. The king is dead. God save the king.”

Chris Cornell will be performing on Jimmy Kimmel live tonight, Friday, January 23rd – and free tickets are up for grabs. If you’re in the Los Angeles area, come along and see his outdoor mini-concert – tickets and all other details are available HERE. It’s a great chance to catch Chris and his band live before they head out to Europe for four exclusive shows next month.

Scream hits stores on March 10

With the economy going down the drain, the holiday season is a bad time to screw someone out of money. Apparently, Timbaland just doesn’t care. The musician had his Miami mansion decorated for the holidays with lots of flowers and lights from The White Tulip Florist. He still owes them thousands of dollars on his bill. The company is claiming that the rapper owes them over $10,000 and they’re suing for it. They have filed legal papers to put a lien on Timbaland’s mansion since they claim that he bought $22,850 worth of decorations and he still owes them $11,450. According to reports, Timbaland was upset when he saw the bill and demanded to see the wholesale cost of the items he purchased but still didn’t pay up after he was shown the costs.

Throughout his storied career, Chris Cornell has clearly never been an artist that is content sitting in one creative comfort spot for too long. The versatile rocker who became a household name from his success in Soundgarden and Audioslave has teamed up with perhaps the most celebrated producer of this era: Timbaland. Scream is the result of their genre-defying sessions.

Cornell and Timbaland are set to kick off a string of eight live shows on October 17th to support the project. Scream will be performed in its entirety to mimic the experience of listening to the LP from start to finish.

The new album features infectious tracks like “Ground Zero,” “Part of Me,” and the exhilarating title track and lead single, “Scream.” Fans can expect a unique blend of hip-hop and rock from this release that will no doubt venture into new territory for both Cornell and Timbaland.

A 17-second clip of the upcoming Madonna and Justin Timberlake song has been released. It’s the same song for which the two filmed a video for. The new track is called ‘4 Seconds to Save the World’. It was produced by hit maker Timbaland and Justin himself.

It looks like it’s all systems go for the promotion of the song. I personally haven’t heard it and am quite curious as to what it’s about. The title is catchy though. I wonder if Madonna is preaching something about Raising Malawi anywhere on it. And I wonder if all her new songs would sound like anything JT and Timbaland have done before.

Celebrity blogger Perez Hilton was the first to report that Timbaland leaked Madonna’s rumored new single ‘4 Minutes to Save the World’ and also even posted the track on the website. But it seems that the move has infuriated Madonna’s current record label Warner Bros. because Perez was told to take down the recording. They obliged of course. What’s one simple click of a mouse compared to millions due to a lawsuit?

Timbaland played the song in concert on Sunday night and now, audio and video recordings of the song are all over the internet. Someone may just get a stern talking to.

It seems that Justin Timberlake and Timbaland are inseparable. They make hit records, put on killer live shows, and now they even entertain the Las Vegas clubgoers!

The SexyBack singer has been making his rounds in Vegas as of late. He was spotted Friday night at a Kid Rock concert, and has been seen living it up at the clubs and casinos. He even took his mom out for a night on the town.
