Apparently, the streets couldn’t wait until the official release date, as Timbaland’s
latest LP, Shock Value, recently leaked to the Internet. The album is
scheduled to officially hit shelves on April 3. It was original scheduled for
a March release, but the super producer held the record to make some last minute
tweaks. "I wanted to make sure this thing was ready to drop, and pushing
it back a week gave me time to do some last minute polishing," Timbaland
said previously.

The album, which boasts a long list of guest appearances, including Justin
Timberlake, Nelly Furtado, 50 Cent, Dr. Dre, Elton John, Missy Elliot,
and Fall Out Boy, among others, is being fueled by Timbo’s
lead single "Give It To Me." The song is currently enjoying considerable
radio and video play, as well as becoming a fixture on the Billboard Top 40
and Top 100 charts.
