No Danja on Shock Value 2 (+confirmed features)

Yes, you are reading right. Danja won't be present as a producer or co-producer on the Shock Value 2 track listing.
But instead of him, there are other producers on the album. Of course (besides Timbaland) there is Jim Beanz on it...a lot. As a producer and songwriter. He basically replaced Danja.
The other one...well, I know a few people don't like that...is J Roc. But he isn't really a producer. If he's on a beat, then he is mostly on the keyboards.
Last but not least, another producer on SV2 is Polow Da Don.

Well, and about Tim's first single. It is not sure yet that it will be featuring SoShy. Still may be changed.
But we know that the release date of the single is the end of october!

Confirmed features on Shock Value 2:
Justin Timberlake
Amar
Shakira
Nelly Furtado
D.O.E.
Kings Of Leon
SoShy
Katy Perry
Keri Hilson

don't me mad at me, but I don't think that the album release will be the end of october because it hasn't been a single released jet.
So if the single will come in the next two weeks, then the album wiil be released at the beginn of November or in the middle of that month

N.L.O said...

J Roc...ew... =((
oh well..atleast Jim Beanz is in..

So now that we know Shakira is confirmed..The track with Wyclef could have been a demo by tim ?

Black Arrow said...

@Owosu-Abeyie: The SINGLE release date is end of october.
The album release date should be November 23.

@N.L.O.: Nah, that track with Wyclef is 100000% no Timbo production. Has nothin to do with SV2.

epic said...

sounds like it might be a letdown like bp3 was

Swandito said...

Wait....what??? seriously????
J-Roc over Danja? Not even Hannon Lane??

Black Arrow said...

With all the hype, I think BP3 could NEVER live up to it. Doesn't matter how great these track were.
The same CAN happen to SV2. But I trust Timbo and his camp that they picked the right tracks for it.

I'm lookin forward to the Kings Of Leon-, Shakira-, Katy Perry- and SoShy collaborations the most for now because we never heard something with Timbo from them.

i don't like very well this news

Chris said...

finally a track with tim & polow!that's gonna be craaazy!:)

Anonymous said...

so..nelly furtado is on this album??? <333

Venture said...

This is a huge turn off.

J-Roc did good very well on Scream... but thats it so far.

Jim Beanz is dope, he and Polow may be the saving grace for this album if J-Roc is on all the tracks.

I'm sorry... I don't play the piano as well as I would like to, I'm a couple of months strong, and I JUST started learning the guitar, and I've produced better melody than J-Roc... point to say... why does Tim need him? Just for melody? Melody can be mundane, same as any other force in a musical piece. But come on... when it waters your existing sound down...

Anyways, can't wait to hear this album...

I hope Tim produced some track solely by himself. Everyone knows that Tim in is prime is a king.

Venture said...

Black Arrow, see but Jay-Z has hype over all of his albums... dude is considered GOAT.

I think the reason why it was such a let down because a) it was very "soft" toned, not rugged dance-laced, head-shaking, unique stuff he usually does and b) a LOT of people were looking to Tim to redeem the album... but he two came soft, because... well you all know who...

Why isn't my dude Hannon on here? Wow... J -Roc over Hannon Lane... wow...

Anonymous said...

yeah your right, timbaland should do away with j roc all together and keep jim beanz on as his music collaborator. what ever theyve done together is always dope.
i heard the katy perry song is written and produced by jim solo so wanna peep that to see how good jims production skills are. we know the guy is a dope writer and vocal producer but other then pocketbook (jenifer hudson) which was a killer tune, havent heard much of his music

epic said...

not a huge fan of beanz produced stuff, his vocal production is great, but the tracks that he's made the beat for i haven't been a huge fan of

They're alright for listening a couple times, but nothing memorable imo

First listen to the album and then talk. Tim is not stupid. He knows if a track is good enough, it will go on the album. If not, he wont put it on there simple. Some of the J-Roc stuff co-produced recently might not even be his best either. As much as I would have liked Danja on there, everyone from Timbo camp to Venture have said it's gonna sound crazy.

baby_music_oo said...

Noooo... that is not Tim's best decision.
No Danja on the album will be the reason why its gonna flop, don't get me wrong but the best songs Tim made were the ones with Danja (except from 'Dirt Off ya Shoulder', he did that one alone i think).

epic said...

bubba sparxx's album deliverance didn't have danja, that album was rediculously dope, same with kiley dean's album, danja wasnt around for pony, or any of aaliyah or missy either

get educated...

Beatf1ya said...

I hate the fact that danja isnt on it...so fuckin disapointing...I was really lookin foward to DANJAS incredible shit...but now...

Haze said...

I have got to be really honest i don't mind Danja not on this one, i think what he has done with Timbo before have been sikkk, but i think there is a time where you need to do your own thing. I would've liked Danja on it as much as the next person, but SV2 isn't destined to be crap cuz he's not on on it....

Black Arrow said...

Agreed!! to the Anonymous 09:03. (please get names lol)
I trust Timbaland. He doesn't decide which track to pick by the co-producer. He just takes the best tracks for SV2. And as it seems, the Timbo/Danja tracks just aren't as good as the other ones.

Hannon Lane >>>> J Roc

Tim will do this shit :D

Sir Thulsa BOOM said...

Last I checked Pharrell had something to do with SV 2, unless he's been cut off.
To be honest, I'm not as psyched for this project.
Why can't Tim realise the Tim/J Roc combo ain't producing results. If his single blows up its gonna be based on the strength of his name as an artist alone, not because the production will be up to par..I really want to believe this shit will be mind blowing but so far..hmmmmm. We'll see.

Venture said...

Hannon > J-Roc Beanz > J-Roc

Danja > J-Roc

You > J-Roc


lol

Tim, you don't need his melodies. You've never been known to be a melody type of producer, not saying they aren't good. You just been a drum/synth orientated known producer.

I wanna hear B. Cox and Tim do something... B. Cox, although known... is a melody dude... J-Roc waters Tim's sound DOWN, I ain't saying J-Roc suxs... but Peanut Butter and Ketchup, ain't Peanut Butter and Jelly...

Ya digg?

Where is Wizz Dumb? All those videos online, yappin on forums, n no tracks on SV2? What ya spending your time on Wizz?

No hannon, no danja?... one word dirty....

big ups to beanz tho, he's the truth...

miguel said...

Looking forward to the album Danja or not

Looking forward to the album Danja or not

Frederick said...

Well, that sucks. Danja needs to get his presence up or he'll become irrelevant. He needs another Duran Duran, an album in which he straight up appears on every track. I heard That's tha Homie on the radio, shit bangs but it's not gonna get him any awards. KC album needs to release already!

Anonymous said...

yo i wish everybody wuld stop hating on j-roc! scream was the absolute sickest shit everrrrr! and "Reminder" and "Venus vs. Mars" were hot as fukkkkkkkkk! I like j-roc.. =]

oh and hopefully they finnaly put "Crowd Control" on this shit! Ive been waiting for that song since 06! lol!

Venture said...

Scream has two tracks I really like ON THAT ALBUM... Never Far Away, and Enemy... those two are the dopest to me.

The other work I heard from J-Roc... water... rock/pop might be his lane. He needs to stick with it.

I'm not hating on the dude, I simply don't like dudes material mostly. Thats my opinion. We all have them, and art is subjective.

Anonymous said...

I was waiting for some new Danja/Timbo collabo, but know I'm really sad. I think danja and tim will not work together anymore because it's already a long time ago

Anonymous said...

^ @anonymous 05:07 lol Tim and Danja were recently in the studio together in Miami and LA. They'll be back!

The way I see it is if the tracks already picked for the album are so sik why would u need Danja?

@Frederick. Finally someone who thinks "That's tha Homie" is bangin! I agree Danja should put himself out there more by producing entire albums. As for K.C album, I'm looking forward to it as much as anyone but KC may be just doin some promoting before it can be released. He's still relatively new as a solo artist. He wants as much people to hear his PreAlbum, his sound and his new single "Relax" whilst featuring on a number of tracks so he can get plenty of new people on board to buy his album.

Moe said...

No surprise if theres no Danja in SVS2. Timbo is def trying to showcase other producers on SV2.

B-Listed said...

what about Brandy???
