Justin Timberlake, Nelly Furtado, Timbaland reunite on 'Keep Going Up'
Updated | By Tamlyn Canham
We'll be playing this new Timbaland, Justin Timberlake, and Nelly Furtado track all weekend long...
Sixteen years after giving the world one of the biggest hits of the 2000s, Timbaland, Justin Timberlake, and Nelly Furtado are back with another head-bopping song.
'Keep Going Up' was officially released as a single this week. "It’s here. Keep Going Up! Now available everywhere @timbaland @justintimberlake," Nelly captioned a clip of the song's video visualiser.
Timbaland wrote: "Let me be your DJ Labor Day Weekend. SONG OUT NOW. We finally here!"
The musicians first hinted about their music collaboration in July. Their busy schedule meant that they couldn't all be in the studio at the same time, but they made it work.
"Da dream team," Timbaland captioned a screenshot of them all on a FaceTime call.
The trio first worked together on 2007's 'Give It To Me'. The song appeared on Timbaland's 'Shock Value' album. It shot to number one on the Billboard Hot 100 - earning the rapper and producer his first #1 in America as a lead musician.
Timbaland has also produced several songs for Justin and Nelly's albums, including 'Cry Me A River' and 'Maneater'.

The trio's latest song is an upbeat tune that will make you want to get up, dance, and celebrate your life.
"I been working on my gains lately / I been loving myself on the daily / Had to cut some people off, they were draining / I'm no longer settling, I'm upgrading," Nelly sings in verse one.
She sings in the song's chorus: "My new life's much better than the old one/ I look around, you're not around /Now I'm laughing, remember I was broken."
