Summary: CD
Comment: The CD itself is good enough, but no cover for the CD, which is very bad and looks poor.
Customer Rating:
Summary: I was surprised I liked some of the songs!
Comment: Last year I thought Timbaland was one of the most overrated producers in the game. I liked some of the singles from "Shock Value" so I decided to get it at the used cd store. Wow was I in for a surprised! Some of the tracks are actually listenable! Timbaland actually experimented with new sounds on this album and it's not just the same cookie cutter beats that we're used to hearing from him. There are even rock songs on here featuring bands like The Hives and Fall Out Boy. I think "The Way I Are" despite its bad grammar, is one of the best singles of 2007. Keri Hilson's voice may be a little average, but the song is down-right addictive. I have to say my favrorite song is the 2007 single "Scream" featuring Keri Hilson and Nicole Scherzinger (of the Pussycat Dolls fame). While this album isn't perfect it is still very listenabls so I give it 3 and a half stars. If only they worked with U2 or Green Day on this album. Oh well it's still good!

Comment: I ordered this 34 days ago, and still do not have it. Very disappointing!

Summary: Put it on shuffle and leave it on all day!
Comment: I first listened to this album late at night doing a 2 hour drive home. It was probably one of the best times to listen to it. What an amazing album. I was already a Timbaland fan since hearing his work with Justin Timberlake, Nelly Furtado. I love this album for partying or driving or whatever. It's the most fun CD I've ever heard, great for anyone who's into hip-hop, r&b, pop, and even some rock.
Favorite Tracks:
2. Give It To Me - This is Timbaland at his best. This is still one of my favorite songs and the verses from Nelly Furtado, Timbaland, and Justin Timberlake were all cool. Everyone should know this one since it was a #1 hit on the charts. Whenever this song comes on, I bob my head and people just have to dance.
5. Bounce - Some people think this song is dumb, but I think this was just another really fun song. It sounds like they had a lot of fun recording it. Missy Elliott's verse was funny and cool. The beat was hard and very club-ish with a cool hook from Justin Timberlake. It also features a verse from Dr. Dre.
9. Fantasy - Arguably the best song on the album in my opinion, and it wasn't even produced by Timbaland! If you're into r&b/pop, you will want to hear this one. All the vocals are done by a relatively unknown female singer named Money. She does a very good job and I hope to hear more from her. The beat and the hook are simply addictive.
10. Miscommunication - Another r&b/hip-hop hit with some rap thrown in. Up-and-coming singer Keri Hilson does an amazing job here with a very cool Danja beat. Rapper Sebastian does a good job finishing up the song, although I wish the overall song was a little longer.
Other good songs are the the HUGE Top 5 hits "The Way I Are" and "Apologize." The liked the previous songs I mentioned a little better personally, but those two are amazing as well. Also don't miss "Release" and "Scream." There's also a lot of good artists and bands like Nicole Scherzinger of The Pussycat Dolls, 50 Cent, The Hives, and Fall Out Boy. Definitely go get this one.
Customer Rating:
Summary: most of the songs were so-so
Comment: The songs "The way I Are" and "Apologize" are the best songs on the cd and the rest were kinda boring, I thought.

Editorial Reviews:

Timbaland is already acknowledged as one of music's most inventive and distinctive creators. Yet the artist/producer's forthcoming album, just his second solo album, promises to shock the world. Timbaland Presents Shock Value (Mosley Music Group/Blackground/Interscope) is set for release April 3, 2007. The first single, 'Give It To Me,' featuring Justin Timberlake and Nelly Furtado. 'My mission is to blow up the boundaries and tear down the limits,' says Timbaland. I'm taking my music outside of the box. I'm not getting away from what I'm known for; I'm just going to a place where it's all about the music, not about the labels on the music. That's why I call it Shock Value--from the artists to the production, it will shock the system. Guests include Justin Timberlake, Nelly Furtadio, Jay-Z, Fall Out Boy, Nicole Scherzinger (PCD), Snoop Dogg, Lil' Wayne, Twista, She Wants Revenge, The Hives, Keri Hilson, Elton John and more. This is the explict version.
