Other works[edit]

Don't know how to work it into the article but I feel a mention of the game/software Beaterator that Timbaland lends his likeness to as well as collaborated on deserves a mention; I had no idea that he existed until using the software on a PSP. Norlesh (talk) 02:46, 22 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Pharrell Williams cousin connection dubious[edit]

I just watched that video clip, and in it he says

"We like family...I call him cousin 'cuz his Grandma..." and then she cuts him off--I think it's pretty clear from the clip that they aren't biologically related, just that they grew up together and consider each other family. As far as I'm aware from the Wikipedia guidelines, it shouldn't be listed as such. 31.221.86.254 (talk) 09:53, 6 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
