Overview

• On the Rory & Mal podcast, Bryson Tiller said Timbaland told him to quit his job after hearing “Don’t” and to come to Miami to work.
• Tiller recounted that the producer dismissed additional songs that later appeared on T R A P S O U L and, as an advance dwindled, denied telling him to quit.
• Timbaland told The Shade Room he did encourage Tiller to leave his job but says he was concentrating on developing other acts and holds no animosity.
• Tiller criticized the online recaps of his interview as misleading, and Timbaland said Tiller alerted him that the podcast edit was sensationalized.
• Tiller completed T R A P S O U L independently, with the album later certified triple platinum and multiple tracks surpassing 100 million Spotify streams, and no legal dispute has been reported.
