Timbaland has reportedly hinted that his new material is inspired by Twilight.

According to Angry Ape, the star is currently working on the first single for his forthcoming Timbaland Presents Shock Value 2 album, while he revealed that some of the tracks have a "vampire theme".

"This record, it's interesting," the producer explained. "It's very interesting - this new artist on my label called SoShy from Paris [stars on the song].

"We're both rapping. The song, I can't describe it, it's so different. It's not different for me, but I can tell you this - it fits everything going on with the vampire theme. It fits everything with Twilight."

Guests lined up to feature on the record also include Lady GaGa, Chris Brown, Jonas Brothers, Paramore, Kings of Leon, Shakira, Jay-Z and Keri Hilson.

Timbaland recently apologised to Jay-Z for his part in the accidental online leak of several songs from his new album.
