Corporate America Meets Timbaland's Roid Rage
First "Verizon Honors Super Producer Timbaland as the First Ever 'Mobile Producer in Residence' For V CAST":
"Timbaland plans to start production of his mobile album at the beginning of March, collaborating with a new guest artist on one track each month and creating the track from the fully-equipped Verizon Mobile Recording Studio Bus. As the bus stops in various cities, fans will get access to recording sessions and get a glimpse into Timbaland's creative process -- in person or through their mobile phones."
Then Timbaland melts down at the Verizon/People magazine party:
"With a blinged-out cross dangling from his neck, a sweaty Timbaland addressed the crowd at Los Angeles' Avalon Club just after finishing a high energy set with longtime muse Missy Elliott...
"Next time I have one of my homeboys in line, let that (expletive) in!" Timbaland shouted as the event winded down after 2 a.m., adding that he was a "peoples person." "I don't like to see my people turned around for some (expletive) magazine ... (expletive) y'all!"
After his tirade ended, he walked off stage with music blasting. The party was effectively over."
Leading to Miss Info's lesson for Corporate America:
"But that’s the problem, corporate suits. You want to be cool in the red carpet photos, but hip hop stars aren’t like wedding singers. You’re not just booking them...you throwing a party with them...or even for them. So, if you don’t want their people at your party...then better just find some socialite deejaying-son-of-an actor to play their hit hip hop songs instead."
ProHipHop's Take:
Can you say 'roid rage? Hey, anybody heard the latest on Britney?
