It’s finally here!
Timbaland is set to release his much awaited new album Opera Noir later this year (he has scrapped Shock Value 3) and today, the first single ‘Smile’ is here for our listening. The feel good song features singer V Bozeman from the TV series Empire and shows us Timbo’s growth and maturity as an artist and producer.
Opera Noir is set to feature collaborations with some of his famous friends like Justin Timberlake and Missy Elliott. After super producers Pharrell and Dr. Dre’s successful outings (G I R L and Compton, respectively), can Timbo follow the trend and deliver a masterpiece? We think he will. Stream ‘Smile’ below.
UPDATE: Here is the final, CDQ version of the song which is impacting radio stations nationwide right now.
