The song experienced successful commercial outcomes in the United States as well as internationally.

The song was also produced by Timbaland and Danja, who performed on the keyboard and bass while Timbaland played the drums.〔〔 Cuban sound engineer Demacio "Demo" Castellon recorded and programmed the song at Thomas Crown Studios in Virginia Beach, Virginia and Chalice Recording Studios in Los Angeles.〔 Matty Green assisted Castellon in the mixing process for the song, which took place at Thomas Crown Studios in Virginia Beach, Virginia and The Village in Los Angeles.〔 "Give It to Me" is the first single released from ''Shock Value'' (2007). Mosley Music Group, in association with Blackground Records and Interscope Records, serviced the song to urban radios on contemporary hit and rhythmic radios on 4 February 2007 in the United States. It was later serviced to urban radios on 10 March 2007 in the United States. The song was released to the internet in November 2006 in a demo version and it was speculated as a possible single from Timbaland's new studio album.〔 In late January 2007, it was confirmed as the first single from Timbaland's new album, which was confirmed to be released in March. Following the release of the single, a rivalry between Timbaland and record producer Scott Storch began to intensify. In the lyrics, Timbaland anonymously backlashes Storch: "I'm a real producer and you() just the piano man". In an interview, Timbaland confirmed that he was talking about Storch. The dispute partly stemmed from controversy regarding writing credits for Justin Timberlake's "Cry Me a River" (2003). Following the reported diss, Storch culminated a response song of his own called "Built Like That", where he addresses Timbaland for stealing credit from Danja and claims to be the true producer of "Cry Me a River". 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Give It to Me (Timbaland song)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
