Timbaland is someone we know for making the beats of our favorite songs. He’s always been the strong silent type. Even in music videos, half the time, Timbaland is doing his trademark raised eyebrow and that’s it. Moreover, Timbo is making efforts to change that. In a recent interview with Variety, the super producer shared that he has spent time working on his public persona.
Additionally, Timbaland mentioned that he needed to do this due to his being naturally introverted. “I’ve never felt great in my speaking,” the platinum producer told the publication. “And [in interviews], the old Tim used to be real short with my answers, a little grumpy, never elaborate,” Timbaland continued. Not only that, the “Try Again” producer further explained he’s an introvert at his core and expresses himself through his music. Secondly, Tim continued sharing with Variety that he’s realizing people want to hear him speak.

Even the interview he was doing with Variety he wasn’t all the way comfortable he admitted. Moreover, the hitmaker also expressed that he was entertaining the idea of getting a public speaking coach. He said he wanted to learn even more about public speaking. “So, for me, it’s been like therapy,” Timbaland told the outlet.
“I ain’t there yet – I’m not gonna get up and be giving speeches, but now it’s an uncomfortable-comfortable position,” the 51-year-old noted. Along with improving his public speaking, Tim’s been busy working on new music. He mentioned in the interview that he was currently working on some new stuff with Justin Timberlake and Missy Elliot (classics loading). When asked what the new JT collab was going to sound like, the super producer said “It’s fun Justin.” Furthermore, he elaborated that the album wouldn’t be too heavy and have a lot of FutureSex/LoveSounds (their blockbuster collaboration).
