References

Can someone please fix the references section? I'm not even sure it should be allowed since it's a direct link to the podcast itself? Guylikeu 17:40, 1 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

F.R.E.A.K.S. was confirmed as a track on "Shock Value" the song features Nelly Furtado.

Danja

do we know for sure Tim's still producing the bulk of his tracks with Danjahandz here? i'd assume so, but i haven't read anything mentioning it. 134.69.166.175 03:04, 28 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

production credits from the booklet added ;) --NeptunianDroid 14:20, 30 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Information table

It seems to happen that if your solution is below 1024x768 the side table with the singles information overlay the wiki text. is it just my problem or is there way to change it?

The Best Album Ever

Did someone subtly vandalize this article? The bottom table lists a 2010 album by Timbaland called "The Best Album Ever." --Circasix 05:58, 14 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Release

Was Release (featuring Justin Timberlake) ever a single? In the Timbaland discography, it stated that it was the single after Give it To Me (featuring Nelly Furtado & Justin Timberlake). Is there any truth to that? Yellowstone County Girl 03:22, 5 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Timbaland Presents Shock Value → Shock Value (album) — Official name; general consensus to move.—Adabow (talk) 09:06, 19 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I'm beginning to wonder if the title of the album is wrong. Isn't it funny to read a title as "Timbaland Presents: Shock Value"? If you visit Timbaland's official website at www.timbalandmusic.com, it states "SHOCK VALUE - album in stores now". Moreover, the words "SHOCK VALUE" are bold, bigger and coloured on the album cover - A sign of saying that's the album's title. There's an official video on YouTube that shows Timbaland being interviewed about his album "SHOCK VALUE" as well.

"Timbaland Presents: Shock Value" is a way of saying Timbaland is presenting you the album, "SHOCK VALUE".

Yeah, I think the actual album title is just "Shock Value". I don't think the "...presents" part is part of the album name, it's just an introduction. So if there's no objection in a few days, I'll move the page to just "Shock Value". Spellcast 17:40, 18 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

And the album cover for 'Give It To Me' says 'Timbaland Presents: Give It To Me' too. It's just 'Shock Value'. Please change it.

Its called "Timbaland Presents: Shock Value" because people would be shocked at how far he would go to get artists featured on his album. For a very "small" example, Elton John ramming good ol' Timbo up the ass, in order to get Elton to be featured. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.78.127.194 (talk) 05:20, 3 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Next singles

When was it decided that One and Only and Apologize were the next singles? Yellowstone County Girl 15:21, 23 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It's a rumored single, heard people say the 6th is either "One and Only", "Come and Get Me", or "Kill Yourself" Hartebeest 22:10, 30 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I think Apologize is the next single as it is currently #2 on the charts. Doc Strange 16:09, 4 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

"Apologize" is the current single. But I still see no sources if "Scream" is the next single. --Esanchez_{(Talk 2 me or Sign here)} 02:29, 10 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Deleted bad text

The album has so had the a higher charting position on UK chart since 'The Way I Are' was released the album has now reached number 1 on UK Album Chart and number 1 on the UK R&B Album Chart.

Deleted the above due to a) lack of grammar and b) lack of sources. Please feel free to rewrite and source, then reinsert.JiMternet 21:15, 31 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Throw it on Me

Was this song ever released as a US single? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Yellowstone County Girl (talk • contribs) 20:20, 5 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

No, but I live in Australia and it was released only in Australia. In plays on MTV all the time. I have the single at home. BatterBean 11:23, 6 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It was a radio single, released only to Modern Rock stations. Doc Strange 16:09, 4 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Scream?

When was it decided that "Scream" was the next single? Last time I checked, "One and Only" was winning? Yellowstone County Girl (talk) 16:59, 14 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Move

Timbaland Presents Shock Value -> Shock Value (album)
It does not matter if the cover or Amazon says "Timbaland Presents Shock Value". It says "Timbaland Presents Give it to Me" on the cover for "Give it to Me", but is that the real title? No. Same thing here. 71.233.232.196 (talk) 23:50, 14 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

No, its not the same thing. No move. --Soetermans | is listening | what he'd do now? 12:31, 6 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

actually i think it should be named only shock value... according to both last.fm and musicbrainz, the album title is only Shock Value. so not only it should be moved, but also properly rewritten according to the correct album title --Soul Eater (talk) 16:23, 14 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Release

Why Isn't Release under the singles list? It has a page where it is identified as a single. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 174.89.237.46 (talk) 20:55, 4 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Shock Value (Timbaland album) → Shock Value (album) – The other album was deleted. Or it could even be just "Shock Value", since it's the only other article. Unreal7 (talk) 14:41, 13 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - deleting the other album from the Shock Value dab wasn't called for, I've reverted it, as it's still mentioned in another article, and certainly oppose a move of the Timbaland album to primary topic; Shock Value should remain a dab, if anything the primary topic is probably the book by John Waters which according to Allmusic also has a spoken word album, though I can't see it on Amazon.com. In ictu oculi (talk) 01:32, 14 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Support as Unreal7. Disambiguation entries could read:

Shock Value (album), Timbaland 2007
- Shock Value II, Timbaland's 2010 follow-up
- Textbook Timbo (originally titled Shock Value III)

Merger proposal

I propose merging Bounce (Timbaland song) into Shock Value (Timbaland album). The former is only a few sentences long and minimally sourced, and seems like it would fit better within the context of the larger album. — Moriwen (talk) 18:13, 10 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Support, not notable.

>> Lil-unique1 (talk) — 12:19, 11 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Merger complete. Klbrain (talk) 10:36, 5 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
