Timbaland and this should not be close AT ALL. And I'll give you the reasons why:
- Albums: Aaliyah's One In A Million, Ginuwine's The Bachelor and 100%, Missy's first four, Justin Timberlake's Futuresex/LoveSounds and 20/20 Experience, and Nelly Furtado's Loose
-He could make hits with established artists and unknowns. The Neptunes struggled with new artists
- More often then not, if Timbaland and The Neptunes were on the same album, Timbaland had the bigger, better songs.
Timbaland >>>>>> The Neptunes. Both are in my Top 10.
