Timbaland, the producer most responsible for the sound of hip-hop circa the late ’90s, finally released his proper solo debut (after a 1997 LP recorded as Timbaland & Magoo) in late 1998. It’s not quite the personal statement implied in the title, but it is full of excellent productions. He spoofs the hip-hop fad of sampling ’80s pop by rewiring familiar themes, like those of Spiderman and I Dream of Jeanie, into barely recognizable forms. Timbaland regulars like Missy Elliott and Magoo contribute tracks, though the best songs here feature multi-platinum rappers like Nas (“To My”) and Jay-Z (“Lobster & Scrimp”). Though his trademark style of stuttered beats and obtuse samples is probably best witnessed on singles by Missy Elliott and Aaliyah, Tim’s Bio is a solid introduction to the talents of hip-hop’s best young producer of the late ’90s.
