...hesitant to alienate the gun lobby in key battleground states. In the wake of the Virginia Tech massacre none other than former President Bill Clinton, who in the past has blamed some national Democratic party losses on the gun control debate, has added his voice to a chorus of others this week calling for a different approach.

Its continuous synth bassline, combined with the sick flows of Missy and Dre, as well as JT’s conspicuously sexed-up chorus, make for a fairly good time. The latter half of the album pairs Timbaland with some rock heavyweights. Although it seems like he’s experimenting for pure fun, the results are often novel, and they provide the only venues where his lyrical ability is showcased to positive effect...
