Shock Value 2 -- It's All FAKE!

Timbaland Responds To False Shock Value 2 Reports
'That's just bogus,' Timbaland says of erroneous reports that Timberlake, Stefani will appear on LP.
In a curious turn of events, someone has been spreading false information about MTV and Timbaland.
Responding to multiple erroneous online reports about his forthcoming Shock Value 2 album — which claimed that Justin Timberlake, Gwen Stefani, Usher and others will appear on the album, and which were incorrectly attributed to MTV.com — Timbaland got on the phone with us to set the record straight on Tuesday afternoon (January 6).
"It's funny," Timbo said about the surprisingly detailed report, which claimed it was based on an advance preview of five tracks from the album. "I'm surprised people are watching me like that. I am recording the album, but I don't know none of them joints, none of them songs. That's just bogus."
As for an official track listing, the production wizard was mum — and he didn't confirm or deny whether any of the artists listed in the report will appear on the album. He did speak generally about the album's direction, however.
"I'm just revamping. I'm not even at a stage to say where I'm at. I'm not at a beginning, I'm not at a middle. I'm just zoning out trying to find a new sound I wanna attack, and I think I got it. It's something you never heard, something I never tried.
"It might be something you might have heard, I don't know," Timbaland added. "I'm trying to figure it out myself. I'm just having a bunch of fun right now. I don't wanna go too left, but I wanna give them something different."
Tim did say the album is coming in 2009.
During his last MTV News interview, Timbaland said he didn't want to use artists that were featured on the first Shock Value for its sequel. However, he did hint that he may have changed his mind while recording the new album.
"As you see, it's not a lot of artists out here," he said. "I'm going back to whoever fits the song. If this person fits the song, I'mma use him. I gotta do what my gut feeling is telling me to do."
The Virginia native refused to reveal any guests, but did say to look for one or two records where it is just him performing by himself.

I'm pissed off now! This is my most anticipated album of the year, and he doesn't even know where he is on the album? Is he ****ing mentally stupid? How can you not know where you are on an album? He better this album out the bag in 2009 and no later.

He did confirm names back in July though:
Quote:
Right now, I have a song with Madonna that I didn't put on her album. I saved [it] in case I wanna do one for me," he revealed. "Of course I'mma do one with Beyoncé. Of course I'mma do one with Jordin Sparks, Rihanna. It's a lot of people. I'mma do one with Jonas Brothers. I'mma try to have 10 major ones."

The Madonna song, "La La", is 99% making it.

But if he's scrapping all the speculation, then will Madonna, Beyonce and Jonas Brothers' tracks be on the final album, or was he just picking these names out a hat. I can see the Madonna one being true though. The fact he produced "Hard Candy", there's a 99% chance (as you said) it'll be on the album. I can also see a Sugababes featurette happening. Is he not producing their new album for this year?

It always happens. An artist may kill the buzz then BOOM! and out of nowhere they announce the first single and the album release info. Britney said the album [Circus] won't come in 6 months from August 08' or something. One month later, we had a single and album release date.
Anyway,

True, it is inevitable for another artist to let it slip about a collaboration or someone producing on their album. It happens all the time, and seems to happen quite frequentley to Timbaland.
