Timbaland ascended to the top of the rap industry in the late 90s, impressively balancing his in-demand hitmaking abilities with his outlandish production style. Few rap producers were capable of such a balance between commerce and craft. Timbaland produced an endless list of hits, primarily for a select group of affiliates (Missy Elliott, Aaliyah, Jay-Z, Ginuwine) though also for a number of other A-list artists (Ludacris, Snoop Dogg, Nas, Justin Timberlake). Even so, he always infused a remarkable sense of individuality and creativity into his productions. When you hear a Timbaland production generally there is no mistaking it for anyone elses work: stuttering bass-heavy bounce beats offset resounding high-end synth stabs, all of this often complemented by his own signature-like quiet murmuring beneath the track; and no sampling. However, over time Timbaland began taking an increasingly assembly-line approach to production, working with a team of co-producers and songwriters including Nathaniel Danjahandz Hills, the Clutch, and Justin Timberlake. Plus, he began producing an increasingly wide array of acts, ranging from alternative icons Björk and M.I.A. to MOR pop/rockers the Fray and Ashlee Simpson.
In the late 90s, when Timbaland was still relatively new on the scene, the Virginia native worked extensively with Missy (The Rain), Aaliyah (If Your Girl Only Knew), and Ginuwine (Pony). Later, once hed established himself with these three, he began working with the top rappers in the industry, namely Jay-Z (Big Pimpin), Nas (You Wont See Me Tonight), Snoop Dogg (Snoop Dogg [Whats My Name, Pt. 2]), and Ludacris (Rollout [My Business]). He also worked occasionally with lesser-known regional artists such as Petey Pablo (Raise Up), Pastor Troy (Are We Cuttin), and Tweet (Oops (Oh My)). As a result of his exceptional success as a producer, Timbaland eventually established his own record label, Beat Club, and began unveiling his own stable of artists (Bubba Sparxxx, Ms. Jade). His records, most co-billed with rapping friend Magoo, spotlighted his access to the top rappers in the business: Missy Elliott, Jay-Z, Ludacris, Wyclef Jean. From 1997 through 2003, he released three Timbaland & Magoo albums, while 1998s Tims Bio and 2007s Timbaland Presents Shock Value — the latter featuring a restless mixture of vocalists, rappers, and rock bands — were solo albums in name.
