It's really not the fact that you didn't TRY to download it that's the issue here.

The Chinaman is also not the issue here.

I read his take on Chris Cornell's Scream. I know EXACTLY where this is going.
4?R!1 F0075!!!

But I do get his concern that some of the best artists, even in rock and roll tend to turn to someone who is a hip-hop producer, though. Never turns out well, does it?

MPP was produced by the same guy who produced St. Elsewhere... And I like that album.

agreed. not sure Danger Mouse improved Beck's or Black Keys' sound. Don't get me wrong, the albums were good but not great.

no dangermouse didn't do a great job with either beck or black keys. it's okay but the music doesn't really have any life to it. it sounds flat and 1 dimensional. neither of those artists need him.

@Black Sunshine: Don't forget that Reznor worked with Dre on Even Deeper from The Fragile back in '99. See "Flyentology" by El-P for another non-disasterous example, although it's arguably a rock producer working with a hip-hop artist... Really though, it doesn't have to end badly. It only ends badly when it's, uh, executed poorly. ;)

Sorry Chris, but I think it's really funny. I'm a big fan of Chris' work but I have to agree that his collaboration with Timbaland wasn't really successful. But I have high hopes he will hit back with killer music in the future.

I just wonder if Fergie from The Black Eyed Peas was in the same room, or same studio, or even same state as Al Jorgensen when doing their vocals. I'd worry for her safety, the poor thing. Haha. Oh Trent.

"Even Closer" featuring Justin Timberlake and Maynard James Keenan sounds freaking amazing. Hows that album cover, Trent Reznor+shutter shades=the masterpiece that is "Strobe Light"

I think Bjork is the only artist who was able to pull off a successful artistic collaboration with Timbaland.

lol, that's cause it sounds pretty much the same as her other stuff. there was no real sonic evolution. it was as close as bjork got to doing an album on autopilot. she doesn't need timberland, timbalake.
