Harmonix requests licensing from Timbaland, other non-rock stars
The rhythm-based games developer has apparently filed for several hip-hop and rap song licenses, indicating something a bit funkier and perhaps a bit fresher is in the works. Scripts may be flipped. We really don't know. Here are the requested tracks (via Royalty Network): "Ante Up" by M.O.P. "Evacuate the Dancefloor" by Cascada "Say Aah" by Trey Songz "The Way I Are" by Timbaland feat D.O.E. As you can tell, these tracks aren't really known for their rocking and/or rolling, so it's not the usual Rock Band fare. Wanton speculation would suggest that Harmonix is working on an extension of its franchise into the hip-hop, R&B and rap segments -- a possible answer to Activision's DJ Hero? [Via Destructoid]
