Timbaland Hails Kanye West as a Visionary

stayc main image

In a series of recent interviews, legendary music producer Timbaland has expressed profound admiration for fellow artist Kanye West, likening him to a "Greek god" and lauding him as a visionary in the realm of music production.

During a conversation with DJ Whoo Kid, Timbaland, known for his groundbreaking contributions to music, acknowledged West's innovative approach and his ability to foresee musical trends. "I look at Kanye as a teacher. I love that man,” Timbaland said, referencing West's dynamic personality and impactful insights. "He’s giving you so much information... he’s like a prophet," he added, highlighting West's influence on him and the music industry at large.

This praise is not isolated but part of a consistent pattern of recognition that Timbaland has shown towards West's work. Earlier in the year, Timbaland suggested that Kanye West would be an ideal performer for the Super Bowl halftime show. He expressed this sentiment on his Instagram story, stating, "Yo, I was thinking, if Kanye was to do the Super Bowl, that almost would be like watching Motown 25 ’cause that boy is serious. Don’t you ever forget it."

Timbaland's admiration is rooted in personal experience and professional respect. He recounted how West's journey in music production, from soul-sampling beginnings to genre-defying albums, has consistently pushed the boundaries of music. Specifically, Timbaland reflected on their collaboration on the hit track "Stronger," where Kanye's visionary approach combined with Timbaland's rhythmic expertise to create a resonating masterpiece.

Moreover, Timbaland shared insights into Kanye's role in shaping his own perspectives. "I ain’t gon’ say a God but he’s like a Zeus or one of those…Poseidon. Like a Greek god. He’s that. Then to hear one of those guys say I’m doing great – it kind of gives you affirmation that I gotta turn my stuff up. It’s like confirmation," Timbaland expressed, underscoring the mutual respect between these two titans of the music industry.

As Kanye West continues to innovate and inspire, his influence on the music scene remains undeniable. With Timbaland's high praise, it's clear that West's contributions to music production and hip-hop culture will resonate for years to come. Fans and critics alike are left to anticipate what groundbreaking work these two music icons will produce next, as they continue to shape the future of the music industry. Will we see a collaboration between the two giants on Kanye’s new album “Vultures”?
