JAY-Z SIGNS TIMBALAND TO ROC NATION RECORD LABEL

The pair have worked together throughout their respective careers. In 1998, Timbo produced Jay’s hit “Nigga What, Nigga Who,” while he returned the favor for the following year’s “Lobster & Scrimp.” Collaborative hits also include “Big Pimpin,” “Dirt Off Your Shoulder” and “Off That” featuring Drake. Most recently, the Virginia native produced Justin Timberlake’s new single “Suit & Tie” featuring Jay-Z, and he expressed interest in recording a full-length LP with Hov.

Roc Nation signed M.I.A., Meek Mill, Elijah Blake and Jahlil Beats to subsets of the company including the label and management.

I say congratulations Timbaland. Now give me those hits you are so good at making.
