For years people have erroneously stated that Danja was "ghost producing" for Timbaland. Well, today Danja cleared up those rumors:
Early on people mislabeled you as his ghost producer but your name was on the records. Were you ever a ghost producer for Tim?
I can say from Im so Fly On my name was on the records. I didnt do anything I didnt get credit for. I got my publishing and everything. Tim is active in the studio. He makes the beats, he doesnt need me to make a beat for him. Never that. I think people do sometimes mistake when I got with him and get credit for things I had NOTHING to do with it. Ive heard people mistake me being around for Dirt Off Your Shoulders but I wasnt anywhere around Tim back then. Our era begins in 2004.

Another myth is that Danja was doing the bulk of the work. Well, he cleared up that too just last week:
Danja Tells All: The Stories Behind His Biggest Hits | Complex
Highlights:
Justin Timberlake's "Lovestoned/I Think She Knows"- Danja: "Tim really went in on that. He had beatboxing, drums, guitar and all kinds of things going on. By the time I got to the studio, that thing was rocking already. I added some stuff here and there but it was a masterpiece by the time I walked in, he was in the zone with that one.
The Game's "Put You On The Game"- Danja: The beat was definitely done by him, I was just in there but it was a competitive thing. It was always a competitive thing with us in the studio, that carried through the projects we worked on.
