TIMBALAND SIGNS WITH SONY\ATV FOR 75 SONG DEAL

Legendary producer Timbaland has partnered with Extreme Music -- Sony/ATV Music Publishing's production house -- to produce 75 exclusive tracks for use in television shows, films and video games.

According to AllHipHop.com, Timbaland and Mike "Daddy" Evans will collaborate to create 75 "Urban Pop songs with a stunning lineup of new talent from Timbaland Productions" for Extreme Music, which has provided library music to music supervisors for shows like '30 Rock,' 'Glee,' 'Entourage' and films 'Avatar' and 'Inception.'

"I'm looking forward to unleashing the Timbaland Productions crew on this exciting new project," Timbaland said of the collaboration. "The songs we're producing for Extreme are gonna blow people's minds."

Last week, Sony's music production house revealed a similar collaboration with rapper Xzibit, who has been signed on to craft 40 original compositions for a compilation entitled 'Urban Ammo 2.'

Founded in 1997, the self-described "bad boys of production music" have also signed deals with Snoop Dogg, Quincy Jones, composer Hans Zimmer and dance producers Paul Oakenfold and Junkie XL.

Timbaland is currently working on his fourth solo album, 'Shock Value III,' which will likely feature longtime collaborators Missy Elliott and Keri Hilson, alongside Chris Brown and many more. (The Boom Box)

SNOOP DOGG AND R KELLY ARE "PLATINUM"

Snoop Dogg goes “Platinum” with R. Kelly on the latest release from his Puff Puff Pass Tuesdays series and upcoming album Doggumentary. With its splotchy beat and slow-rolling drums, the Lex Luger production sets off with a club-geared verse from Kellz, who throws it to Snoop for a fast-paced rhyme about living a lavish life. “My rap is that/ My Cadillac is drippin’ wet/ You can bet, turn it up, roll it up, burn it up,” he spits.
