Timbaland’s First Look At ‘The Pop Game’, Grant Landis - Off Limits (Snippet) (17’)
“Being a pop star is more than singing,” Timbaland explains. “It’s style, swag, and confidence.” One of the five young artists is Grant Landis, a 17-year-old from Joplin, Missouri, who takes a crack at performing in front of Timbaland and other producers in the exclusive preview below.
Grant has completed two tours, written with country superstars Sugarland, and racked up millions of views on YouTube, but he still needs to prove he has chops in the studio. “I’m feeling pretty good without my guitar — kind of, a little bit,” the singer stammers. “It’s just really uncomfortable for me.” "The Pop Game" will premiere at 9 p.m. Tuesday, Feb. 21, on the Lifetime channel.

Timbaland x Billboard.com Interview, Talks New Series 'The Pop Game' Due (Feb. 21st)
After helping Aaliyah, Missy Elliott and Justin Timberlake top the charts, Timbaland is looking for music’s next big star. He’s hoping to find that future phenom in The Pop Game, a new, unscripted series, set to premiere next month on Lifetime. The upcoming show, from executive producers Queen Latifah and Jermaine Dupri, will follow the producer (born Timothy Mosley) as he guides aspiring vocalists and their parent-managers through challenges to test their skills.
Each contestant will be vying for a spot on the super-producer’s imprint, Mosley Music Group. "Being a mentor is what’s missing in music," Timbaland recently told Billboard of his motivation to get involved. "It’s really artist development, and this is part of owning a record label. Now, everything is on the phone and everything is visual so I think this is the new way of showcasing artists. If I show you how the process is done, I think you’ll respect it more."
