And another one! But this time Timbo and J Roc took the beat to a more oriental direction. But it doesn't seem that they sampled the melody.
Check it out:
Jay-Z - Reminder (prod. by Timbaland & J Roc):

So what do you think of this one? I know the opinions of "Off That" are pretty divided. How is it with this one?
BIG props the guys who hit us up with it (H2DaMan & DATIMBO).

hmmmm what happened to Jay & Tim bangers of yesteryears! .... this is avg at best if i'm being generous..
Only one Timbo track left to save the calabo....
H2DaMan was faster, he posted the link 14 min before DATIMBO, but whatever lol
Timbaland sucks. This beat could have been done by any producer.
Seriously ^ shit like that is nonsense. If you want to get mad at anybody, get mad at Jay for picking these beats. Tim made more than 3 tracks for Jay and these are the ones he picked for HIS album.
It's not that bad but as Buddha says any producer would have made that beat. I've heard Timbaland beats that are kept simple in the past but this doesn't sound fresh enough. It may grow on me after a few more listens.
i agree this is crap.... :(
I was soooo disappointed when H2DaMan posted up the link i was so excited.... but then it was shit..
this song is rather annoyin.... can't listen to it anymore.... proper cringe.....
Has very little going for it, soz for negativity. :D
2 strikes for Jay and Tim.
hip hop really is a young mans game...
whoever is leaking these tracks is dumb as hell because this is not helping the BP3 buzz at all....
i think someone has the cd and is probz leaking them one everyday... or some twat has hacked into someones email account and ripped them off?
sry but both tracks are wack. if this going to be the "new" sound for sv2...than...please nooooo...
yep, this track isn't anything special, just OK.
*face palm*
mother fuggen
*face palm*
@Introduction: Has it ever occurred to you that maybe all the other beats sucked too? Let's face it, Tim has had a lot of duds recently.
All the tracks on the PCD album are recycled, "I Don't Need It" by Jamie Foxx is average and "Get Involved" by Ginuwine sure as hell doesn't compare to their old stuff.
The only recent beat that I've liked from Timbaland is "Intuition" by Keri Hilson and who knows when that was produced.
its safe to say that timbaland did about 8% of this track, give J-Roc 92% of what he's due. You're witnessing the aftermath of the absence of danja..
I agree with anonymous type 1203.
this sounds like one of Unrealz beats LOL
Danja wins
no no, this track is wack...the little violins get repetetive..and annoying after a while..no hook or nething. the off that track is waaaaayyy better
lol @ danja wins... he did rip it on that Biggie track, and Jay-Z felt at home on that track. wonder why he didn't call on Danja ever since.
you guys sure this is a timbaland track? lol blueprint 3 my ass. this CD is going to be the fire... fire extinguisher, that is.
this isn't great at all
what a letdown
O.o ftww??? this is odd...like seriously...this is like..not that good..good is really stretching the definition of the word..like with all timbo songs it will grow on me but seriously?? Off That is way better than this and even so half of all I have read on other blogs has been like 50/50...and that suckss...this song is like ...theres nothing special about it!! basically!! and then who the hell is singingg?? cuz if yooh ask meeh it kinda sounds like low autotunee...and wouldnt that be agenstt Jay?? dfjaeijaerae idkk I dont think I like this track...
Damnn J-Roc!! I was givin yooh a chance but yooh keep lettin meeh downn!!!! fakdjfiawejfaieja! FJADFKJ!
this is clearly not a timbaland beat...
this must've been fawking JRoc... that nuhka needs to step his game up 10000% this can't be timbo.. if this is timbo i'm hanging myself... REALLY WACK!
LOL @ Dots!!LOL J-Roc produced this because he is assssss. Tim & Danja can do hip-hop listen to Get A Light- Snoop, Stay Fly- Lloyd Banks...
wow...ive always wanted to know how jay would sound over my wannabe tim beats lol
thanks j roc
j roc is the ish when it comes to r&b music tho
tank- come back to me
ice box
anonymous
kirk franklin(Gods Property Nu Nation) classic my church people know how ill that cd is
also isnt j roc part of royal court cus i think there was 3 of them....
3 heads are better than one mannn
J-Roc isn't part of the Royal Court, and he did not produce any of the songs you listed.
whats worse Tim putting his name on the credits for these tracks or jay-z paying "250 for these beats" LOL
oh jesus help Timbo...he isnt bringing it anymore since a loooong time
i blame jay, all the beats we've heard so far from blueprint 3 have been very short of spectacular, memorable, repeat-all-day-worthy, etc. as i type this i've forgotten how "off that" sounds and think of how shitty and out of place the D.O.A. beat was. i'm mad hot 97 stays playing that joint
@ Buddha
I fail to see how the PCD tracks were recycled. Out of all the recent tracks Tim has done (it's not many) you like Intuition best? Your taste in Tim beats are severely lacking my friend. The man does not suck because of two beats jay picked for HIS album. Each to their own though. Reminder is hard to listen to I agree.
@Introduction: How long have you been a Timbaland fan for? I ask this because a lot of newer fans find a lot of his old stuff boring. Intuition reminds me of his older beats.
You probably also think "One In A Million" by Aaliyah is boring huh? "Cheers 2 U" by Playa too? "I'll Do Anything/I'm Sorry" by Ginuwine?
It's not that my tastes are lacking, but that I can appreciate the simplicity of an old Tim track, which you clearly can't. Some of us listeners don't have to hear clicks and clacks left and right to enjoy the beat. Do you think "Two Sides Of A Story" by Ginuwine is wack too? I pity you if you do.
As for the PCD tracks...
Halo = Deliverance/What Goes Around/Rehab/Devil Wouldn't Recognize You
And the other ones just seemed like they've been heard a thousand times before.
Sigh....WHY!!!!?????!!!!???!!!???! :(
intuition was my favorite track on keris album too. it reminds me of Trizz Moneys "Got Money" beat on his myspace with that crazy spaghetti western sample. i promise ive listened to that track for an hour straight doing homework lol
i promise i can sing every riff she did on that joker lol i luv that jawn to death
when i listen back to missys "this is not a test" album probably my favorite tim album production wise he is really a simple dude production wise unlike danja who is a total arrangement/crazy transitions/genius melody line and countermelody/aww man i have that vsti but didnt think of using it that way/ how in the hell does he play his drum sequences type of producer LOL.
But he is F%$@#% KING at picking the PERFECT sounds everytime but even moreso of knowing how far to take it. His thought process of creating is one in a million like Dilla or Black Milk (cough cough). He's like the modern day J. J. Jeczalik from Art of Noise.
o by the way Brian Kidd is going to be at the guitar center in atlanta sep 30th for a cubase tutorial!!! someone go down there and get a pic of this BEAT GOD!!! i really think he is a myth sometimes lol
I dunno.
Reminder ain't for me.
The beat sounds a little like Daydreamin by Mobb Deep - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oyi_tfjwNQo
@Big-A just curious as to know which was last the Timbo track u liked?
I honestly feel this beat isn't actually that bad and "Off That" too because the beat alone is still sick without the annoyin Jay Z. I've got almost the entire Timbo collection and I can relate to his simple oldies to this one in a way. Even a few beats he done for Missy sounded like this.
It's not amazing I agree though. PCD tracks are actually very well produced but they're not as memorable as other Tim tunes ofcourse.
I must stress this wasn't the album Freestyle Steve was raving about. It was the beats Tim did for The Game so keep a look out for that and I expect him to be 100% on his game for Shock Value 2. 60 tracks Tim did and DemolitionCrew stated on Twitter they're all FIRE!!! Timbo has NOT lost it so stop the negativity!
..and so did Danja
@Buddha
I am in no way a new fan of Tim's. I'm sure I've been around the forums and blogs and whatnot's longer than alot of these people. Just ask Mr. J-Boogie.
With that being said, your assumption of me disliking Tim's older work is also false. I wouldn't be as much as a Tim fan today if I didn't appreciate and love his older work.
I definitely don't need every beat from him to be some sort of masterpiece in order for me to enjoy it either. The PCD tracks we just wont agree on...it's subjective, but I enjoyed them.
All I was saying was that saying that he sucks isn't far, especially when he really doesn't suck.
