From Timbaland?s ?The Emperor Of Sound? Memoir
QuoteHis Favorite Record That He Produced Is ?Running Mate?
After Aaliyah?s death, Timbaland had a hard time getting back into the flow of music. Yet, he was able to rejuvenate his passion by working Jay Z, Brandy, and Ms. Jade. Yet, surprisingly, his favorite record that he produced was Kelis called ?Running Mate?.
?The next track I worked on remains one of all-time favorites.My song with Kelis was called ?Running Mate? and it was bass-heavy, electronica influenced jam about wanting someone who would always be by your side, who would hold you down and lift you up. Writing that song made me realize how much I missed having a running mate. I started to feel social for the first time in months.? -p. 164-165
Even though ?Running Mate? was never officially released, it did help Timbaland heal and get back to his true self.

:udontlookok:
i loved this song..i was kinda fuming it didn't make the Tasty record...and that beat was so hard hitting
The beat was so ahead of it's time.
:stressed:
It truly was and those lyrics>>>> and the way she sang it :stressed:
Wow
I loved that song though
'Tasty'
The final version features Nas, but being that it didn't make Tasty we will never hear it.
Horrible song

I heard about that I fumed so much and I'm sure the final mix sounded way better! Kelis has so many unreleased gems and I'm still mad we will never hear the HQ version of Distance either :loose2when:
i was such a fan of kelis at that time..

this is terrible
First time hearing this, I kinda use.
The same angry fags lol.
Sounds like Sirens and Hush.
Sounds nothing like Sirens lol.
They both have a repetitive sample though.

this is terrible
n I didn't even bother to click it
His best work is with Brandy , Jay and Aaliyah .
I used to FUME that this song and Freak Me Slow was not added to Tasty
But I'm highly surprised that this song was chosen over all the gems he did for Afrodisiac and shit even Kiley Dean's album
Timbo said what he said!
Deal with it.
:cheerup:

Sound wise no but the way the sample repeats over and over.
That's basically it.
This was cute.
Squid, bvy. Where u at?
I love this omg
Sometimes I forget how much I love Queen
She's everything
Food still books me in ways I cannot explain

And Kelis was here omffff
I just
Her music and artistry is everything
My favorite song of hers tho is Get Along With You
Oh I enjoyed that. Def sounds like both Hush and Sirens.
His best work..... Missy and Li of course but his music wth Jay wasnt all that. Id put Afro above that
So someone has Runnin Mate in HQ?
I'm a bit surprised that this is his favorite.
I like the song though. I wish the HQ would leak. :stressed:
Don't like this
