<p>When discussing the great hip-hop producers of all time, <a href="/profile/Timbaland" class="text-word" target="_blank" >Timbaland</a> cannot go without mention. The ultra-talented artist known best for his hip-hop and R&amp;B production has made countless hits, including Justin Timberlake’s 2006 album “FutureSex/LoveSounds”. The album sold more than 10 million copies and featured hugely popular songs in “SexyBack”, “My Love”, and “What Goes Around… Comes Around”. Since beginning his career in 1990, the Norfolk, Virginia-native has collaborated with almost every artist imaginable. The long list of artists for which Timbaland has produced for includes the late Aaliyah, whom he had a close relationship with, Missy Elliot, Boyz II Men, Janet Jackson, <a href="/profile/Usher" class="text-word" target="_blank" >Usher</a>, Jay-Z, Method Man, Nas, The LOX, Eminem, Ludacris, Snoop Dogg, Jadakiss, Nelly Furtado, Fabolous, Bubba Sparxxx, Destiny’s Child, Lil’ Kim, Game, <a href="/profile/FatJoe" class="text-word" target="_blank" >Fat Joe</a>, <a href="/profile/RayJ" class="text-word" target="_blank" >Ray J</a>, Jennifer Lopez, Jamie Foxx, Diddy, Busta Rhymes, Rihanna, 50 Cent, Kanye West, Mariah Carey, <a href="/profile/Twista" class="text-word" target="_blank" >Twista</a>, T.I., Drake, Lil Wayne, DJ Khaled, and many, many more big-name artists.
