Nelly Furtado has suggested a Las Vegas residency with her collaborator Timbaland.
The 'I'm Like A Bird' hitmaker, 45, would love to team up with the 52-year-old record producer on a show focused on their iconic noughties LP, 'Loose', which topped the charts in 10 countries upon its release in 2006.
Speaking to NME, Nelly said: “I think it would be really fun for Timbaland and I to do a Vegas residency of ‘Loose’. We could play the album from beginning to end, because I do think it captures the world we were in at the time.”
Nelly believes the "real sound" of the record and the combination of their signature styles gave it mass appeal.
She explained: “We didn’t want it to sound perfect. We wanted it to sound real. The idea was [to lay] my trippy, melancholic, bittersweet melodies and lyrics over Tim’s heavy beats and make a dreamy type of mix within that.”
The record included the hit singles ‘Maneater’, ‘Promiscuous’, ‘Say It Right’, ‘In God’s Hands’ and ‘All Good Things (Come To An End)’.
The pair have since worked together on the 2007 hit ‘Give It To Me’ with Justin Timberlake, 43, and the trio reunited on 2023's ‘Keep Going Up’.
Nelly described being back in the studio with Timbaland and Justin as a "healing" experience.
Speaking on Emily Ratajkowski’s ‘High Low’ podcast about a phone call she had with her two former collaborators: “We connected. There was a real healing thing that happened.
“Between the three of us – me, Timbaland and JT – we’ve all had long careers with ups and downs and to me personally, doing this song together feels very authentic and is a mini-miracle.
“It started with Tim and JT. Tim texted me like, ‘Yo, I’ve got a track for you, it’s a dance vibe, for a trio,’ and I was like, ‘You mean with JT?’ And he was like, ‘Yes’.
“Him and JT have been working on music for like a year already, separately from me, so they just had an idea and they wanted me to woman the ship a little in my direction so they could feed off that.
“We just cooked it up.
“I think energetically it’s very positive. For me, the lyrics and everything are very real to me right now.”
