Timbaland - E! True Hollywood Story [Full Episode]


Growing up in South Carolina and North Carolina, Pharrell and Timbaland were my two favorite musicians.  I was obsessed with Timbalands beats and I would buy his Timbaland & Magoo albums along with all of the Missy, Aaliyah, Ginuwine, Playa, and Nicole Wray singles that he produced.

Along the years, my admiration for Timbaland faded away due to many substantial allegations that he was  stealing beats from overseas, and it made me question how much of his legacy is truly his.  Now, I realize that whatever his involvement, he's still a genius who has impacted music in multiple genres for the better.  In the latest episode of E!'s True Hollywood Story, he doesn't hold anything back.
