Justin Timberlake and Timbaland are just like brothers, but they're not actual brothers

  • February 13, 2013
  • Sam Hine

Justin Timberlake newSo basically Justin Timberlake and Timbaland get on reas­on­ably well.

"We're like brothers. You have friends like that, friends you don't have to say much to, but you know they just get who you are."

Say no more Justin, say no more.

"We go in the studio and kind of don't even speak to each other. He'll start tinkering around or I'll start playing some chords and start tinkering around with some loop of something and that'll give him an idea and then we'll start looping it and then I'll start humming a melody and then we just ping-pong an idea back and forth."

I think we get it now 'JT'.

''We share the same per­spect­ive that we always want to make something that reminds us of music that we love, but at the same time is something we've never heard before."

Cheers for that Justin.
