Hova’s Next Album Will Surprise

Posted by KPope

 

Jigga’s forthcoming album will shock his hard-core hip-hop fans - because Timbaland plans to feature bagpipes on the disc’s tracks. The hip-hop heavyweights are teaming up in the studio to record Hova’s new LP, and Timbaland insists using the Scottish instrument will lend the songs global appeal. He says, “We want to go to the world. Some of the songs are gonna sound like (world music artist) M.I.A.  You’re gonna be like, ‘Whoa!’ But it’s Jay on them. That means it reaches everywhere.  I’m gonna have songs with bagpipes too. The music is gonna be so worldwide, he’ll be able to tour the rest of his life, maybe, off just this one album.”

    Hopefully, they don’t cross the thin line that separates creative from weird. Many times what people consider creative expression is just plain goofy!

    This may actually attract some people that usually would turn a deaf ear to Jigga man. Timbaland’s style is gonna add a whole new dimension to it anyway. The thing is whether it’s gonna by fly or a flop.
