To mark Black History Month we are celebrating the amazing artists who inspired our tutors to become professional musicians.

From RSF Youth Trustee Shamime:

Timbaland is my favourite producer because his music is unmistakably him. From Hip Hop to RnB and even pop, Timbo has put his signature sound on each of these genres and people continue to be inspired by his 90s and 2000s sonic legacy. Timbo x Aaliyah x missy E?!? Come onnn - not to mention the master works of the 2000s when he took on Nelly Furtado and Justin Timberlake. From ‘Big pimpin’ to ‘put you on the game’, ‘get your freak on’ to ‘drop’ — there isn’t a beat Timbaland hasn’t made a household banger. Synths, kicks, beatboxing, ‘ugly singing’ - you name it! Timbaland has made it magical.
