Timbaland is getting candid on the making of Aaliyah’s ‘Are You That Somebody’ and sharing new insight as to what inspired the song.
Full story below…
“I actually was trying to make the ‘Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory’ beat from the ‘Oompa Loompa’ song,” he said via Pitchfork.
“I took that rhythm and I listened back to it and I was like, ‘Man. that’s a dope addition.’ That’s what I was trying to attempt but in a hip-hop way. … I gotta thank Willy Wonka for that,” he continued.
Elsewhere the conversation, he shared that the baby sound in ‘Are You That Somebody’ was actually from a 60s compilation of sound effects.
However, Timbaland is not the only producer to take inspiration from a movie. Take A Daytrip shared how a scene from ‘Shrek 2’ inspired ‘Industry Baby.’
