Timbaland plans to follow in Kanye and 50's footsteps, and challenge Dr. Dre with a chart battle.
Timbaland, who looks up to Dre and even told sources that he calls Dre his daddy, said this would be big and believes it would drive people to the music stores. Timbaland recently decided against producing the Missy Elliot record so that he could focus on his own indie label, Mosely Music Group.
He will only work on selected tracks for her album. Timbo told sources that Missy is his sister and it's nothing personal, but he has a family to focus on and if he can't function then they can't get their own careers off, referring to Nelly Furtado, Keri Hilson, and One Republic.

"Tim told MTV.com: "I gotta go against my daddy," he said Friday from the ABC studios in New York, where the super-producer is filming a guest spot for the soap opera "One Life to Live." "I call [Dr.] Dre my daddy. To make it be some talk, I gotta go against my big brother. He's my big brother. [Who are] the two quarterbacks? Peyton Manning and Eli? When they have to go against each other, it's like, 'Do I really wanna go against my big brother?' Dre is my mentor. That would drive people to the stores. Like, 'Oh snap, Tim and Dre!' That would be big. I asked Jay-Z who he would go against. He said, 'The only person I would go against is my other homeboy: my friend Eminem.' "
Both TIM and Dre got the same boss (JIMMY). If they go head on Tim got Justin and Dre got Eminem. Tim will lose hard sales wise but the music will be good
-
lol
-
I guess seein Kanye the underdog own 50 really amped Timbo up. Don't go against Dre dickhead - it never works!
-
David prevailed against Goliath... but more David wannabe's have died trying to do the same.
-
Looks like Timbo wants to drop his shit around summer of 08 aswell. But unless Timbo comes out with some unreal crazy ass shit, Dre would destroy him lol!!!
-
he seen how the kanye and 50 organised hype worked and now he wants a piece of it, but it wont work, he will get dominated by dre. not hatin on timba, he is a talented nigga.

I love it how when a marketing plan works, it becomes the cookie cutter plan till its flogged to death and then some.

Tim trying to use Detox as a marketing gimmick for his own upcoming album ::)
-
Timbaland would outsell Dre any day in the UK, if he comes with beats like "The Way I Are" and "Ayo Technology". It wouldn't surprise me if Dre turned down the challenged and used "Detox" as an excuse
-
"Daddy". Gay.
-
^ that does sound fruitish... but I think that he was trying to be carefully respectful. Underdog's usually require the sympathy vote and saying something disrespectful would take that away from him.
-
as much as i would hate to say it but tim might win this.. only cuz tim really got the pop crowd going right now. just about everything being played got tims name all over it!!

Tim's "Ayo" wasn't able to propel 50 over Kanye....
-

Completely pointless, DR. DRE's fanbase constitutes the WORLD over. I really don't need to stress how big of a mismatch that would be, but I'ma just reiterate that People of All Ages, and all walks of life, from every country will forever Purchase a DR. DRE CD, based on the past 2 records he's dropped and his involvement with N.W.A, and Death Row Records.
THE END
1 love to Timbaland, but it's almost an insulting.

I understand why Lil Wayne calls Birdman his daddy and why Kanye calls Jay his big brother, but Timbo calling Dre his daddy and big brother? Are Dre and Timbo really that close? What I have understood they have worked together only once? That's quite gay and awkward.
Timbaland makes occasionally fancy hip-hop beats, but he's no legend unlike Dre is. If Timbo was given two months to promote his next album and Detox would drop in silence, as same day as Timbo's, he wouldn't out sell Dre at the end.
-
both make pretty lousy beats right now
-
Dr. Dre > Timbaland
the obvious 8)
-
Even doe Timbaland will probably have a lot of tracks with corny pop stars on his album, Dre will still beat him with raw hip hop.

No [Timbo the king] reply WOW!
