No Timbo on "Lifestyle"

On a recent interview with the Brazilian magazine Estadão, Nelly Furtado says that Timbaland won't be present on her upcoming album "Lifestyle" which is set for a summer release.

Here a small exerpt of the interview:


Estadão
: And what about Timbaland? What was like to have the biggest pop producer?

Nelly: We're friends for over ten years, we have that type of cosmic connection. I don't have him on my new album, but we'll surely work together again.

Estadão: How would you define your new album, Lifestyle?

Nelly: I don't know, its a bit hard... What I can say is that its a combination of my other four albums. It has hip-hop, reggae, love songs. The funny thing is, after recording and making tours in spanish, my vocals are stronger. People will see it in brazilian concerts. I have fantastic memories of my first concerts in Brazil, in 2002. The crowd moved and danced with such joy. I've always had a strong relation with Brazil, not only because my parents are azorian, which its cultural fundation is made by brazilian artistic movements, but also because I feel part of brazilian land, I feel at home. And its not exclusive of mine: the world knows and apreciates brazilian music. And when the brazilian soccer team is on field, we're all green-yellow.

Estadão: Your musical aprouch after Timbaland put your in a place where singers like Beyoncé, Christina Aguilera and Lady Gaga are. Do you feel close to these artists or do you consider yourself and exception?

Nelly We're all musical causins. We dance and try to make joy. And we have mutual respect for each other. I really admire Beyoncé, she's a complete artist, fighter, inovative. Of course, even because of our different formation, we're not the same. But we like similar things, the mix of it is what makes us apart.


So no Timstar & Nelstar for "Lifestyle"?
What do you think about that?

Nelly is not signed to Timbaland. Never was. She just had a production deal with him so MMG got credit on her album.

Too bad and I'll guess it will most likely be the same with the next Justin album. Timbaland will have 3 songs tops and most of the production will be by Justin himself and The Y's.

^That is SO stupid. Why would you wish bad upon an artist just for not working with a certain person? You don't even know what the circumstances are. lol
