The Neptunes vs. Timbaland

Who would have guessed that a pop music revolution would begin with three guys from Virginia Beach? Timbaland pulls out skittering, futuristic funk to give tracks like Missy Elliott's uncanny "Get Ur Freak On" a little syncopated muscle, while The Neptunes turbocharge Noreaga's apocalyptic "SuperThug" with their own combination of distorted synths and samples. This is a match-up between giants.
