Super-producer Timbaland whisked through Baltimore last night like a streak of lightning for a quick performance at Ram’s Head Live in the Power Plant complex. While I didn’t personally attend, radio personality Kelson from Baltimore’s 92Q was on hand and furiously updating his Twitter/Facebook accounts as the action was going down. What I learned from Kelson was the following:

1. Timbaland has a touch of an attitude (no elaboration, but something must have happened on stage).
2. Timbaland’s brother opened for him (Was Timbaland only performing to help out his brother’s career? Inquiring minds want to know).
3. Timbaland was using Auto-Tune during the performance (This has become a taboo practice ever since Jay-Z starting calling out the industry on it).

On a positive note, Timbaland was improvising and creating beats on stage, something Kelson implied he had never seen. What’s next for Baltimore? Stay tuned…
