Timbaland is preparing his swan song, at least in regards to music.
Pitchfork reports that Timbaland‘s final album, Opera Noir, is in the works. The mega-producer is also working on a corresponding musical of the same name.
The play “will follow a young musician’s rise to the top and hardships along the way–including struggles with poverty, substance abuse and crime.”
Timbaland will executive produce the musical with Leftfield Pictures, the production company responsible for Pawn Stars that has also done work with ESPN and NFL Network.
This will come in addition to Timbo’s work on Empire as he writes and produces the music for the FOX show.
He released his King Stays King mixtape in December. The project included features from Migos, Tink and previously unreleased material from Aaliyah.
This nigga thought he was going to get back on with that King Stays King garbage and that Tink trash. Feel bad for him. Now niggas forcing him into retirement because his shit is straight garbage.
Keep swiggin’ that hate juice bro, Timbo is a legend and the man is respected from California way down to Japan.
Timbo is a legend. He just isnt finding that new “it” artist and it made his last album pretty much suck. I remember the timbo who was putting cats out like Luda on albums before most people knew who they were.
