Nelly Furtado chats to I Like Music

ILM: I heard the speaker caught fire during one full on jamming session! But, of all the tracks on your Loose album, which one track did you have the most fun making in the studio?

NELLY: That’s a good question. All the songs were extremely fun to record and write. One in particular was Promiscuous, because it was the first time I gave up lyrical writing credit, and just kind of co-wrote the song with Timbaland and this other rapper named Attitude from Alabama, who’s this guy who was hanging out in the studio, and Tim works with him a lot. And Tim was like, ‘You know, I think you should write this track with Attitude, because he’s a really good rapper and I think he’ll bring out something different in the rap.

And so we sat down on the couch and I said, ‘ok fine I’ll meet you here at eight’ which is all new to me right, sitting down writing lyrics with somebody. And we sat down and we were almost flirting while we wrote the song, it was a very fun experience and I think that’s why it translated on the song, where it’s this really playful interaction between a guy and a girl. The third verse was totally off the top of our heads while we’re cutting the demo in the studio. The other funny thing was, Tim was challenging me and saying I wouldn’t be able to do it and that my rapping would suck, and then, I got it on the first take. So, it was just a really fun playful time and I think that’s why the song connected in a big way, because it’s so playful and fun.
