Music: Timbaland is heading to SA for concert

Grammy Award winning rapper and music producer Timbaland is coming to South Africa for what promises to be an “extraordinary musical experience”.

The number one producer in the world, Timbaland was acclaimed as Billboard Magazine's Song Writer of the Decade in 2011. Castle Lite could not have obtained a better collaborator to exclusively produce a stage music experience like no other - the Extra Cold Music Concert Edition.

Scheduled to take place on 7 June 2014, the concert will showcase the next generation in music experiences, featuring the hottest international acts alongside a host of South African artists.

In a TV interview with Castle Lite General Manager, Andrea Quaye, two weeks ago, Timbaland said: “I am going to show the hottest South African artists. You can’t just tell the artists what to do. You need to show them how it’s done.”

On why South Africa, he said: “I like to venture outside where I come from (Virginia, NY). For me going to South Africa is a big statement, not just for the country but even for me personally.”
