Producer heavyweight Timbaland recently took shots at Miami-based
super producer Scott Storch on his first single ‘Give It
to Me’ featuring Nelly Furtado and Justin Timberlake,
off of his anticipated album ‘Shock Value’, calling him “just
a piano man.” Several weeks later, Storch, non-rapper, mainly producer,
vindictively returns with his own diss track aiming directly at Timbaland respectively
titled ‘Built Like Dat’ claiming that “I’m a piano man.
Yes, I’m the piano man, two hundred million and headed for a billion, man.”

Apparently, Timbaland was scorned about slanderous comments made by Storch
about the production credit of Justin Timberlake’s 2004 Grammy winning
‘Cry Me a River.’

Storch recently commented to MTV News, stating that “Timbaland approached
him with a 50/50 collaboration deal for two album tracks.” Upon release
of Justified, production credits put Timbaland as the producer and Storch as
keyboardist. Storch felt disrespected and stated that he “composed
the melody and the bridge, while Timbaland programmed the kicks and the snares.”
Storch distraught and angered about the situation said, “It would
have been more respectable if both had received the credit due.”

In the past, Timbaland has also taken shots that Jermaine Dupri of
So So Def, after Dupri claimed in a magazine interview that he was undoubted
the best producer in the music today. Timbaland and fellow veteran producer
Dr. Dre took offense to Dupri claims. Dre lashed out with Eminem
alongside, blazing a diss track feed off Dupri’s comments, on the song
“Say What You Say.” on the “The Eminem Show.”
At the end of the song, Timbaland adds his own remarks by so forth mentioning,
“Yo this is Timbaland, tell him he can suck my dick.”

We are witnessing the prequel to an introduction of a situation about to really
get out of a hand, this is only the beginning. Much props to both super producers.
