Madonna, Justin Timberlake and “Verizon Mobile Producer In Residence” Timbaland have teamed up to make a remix of “4 Minutes” by… Madonna, Justin Timberlake and Timbaland. Evidently the trio went into Verizon Wireless’ mobile recording studio after the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame induction ceremony and created this “Underground Remix” of their Top 10 hit for the mobile-phone company. If you take the effort to buy this remix, you’ll also get footage of the trio holding hands and dancing around a mic while chanting “Can you hear me now?”

Available exclusively in the U.S. to Verizon Wireless’ V CAST Music customers and internationally to Vodafone customers, 4 Minutes is the first single from Madonna’s 11th studio album for Warner Bros. Records. HARD CANDY is scheduled for international release on April 28, 2008, with the U.S. release the following day.

In addition to Madonna’s original “4 Minutes” track, co-produced by Timbaland and Justin Timberlake and Nate “Danja” Hills, and the underground mobile remix available on Verizon Wireless’ V CAST Music and Vodafone, exclusive video footage of Madonna, Timbaland and Justin Timberlake’s “mobile remix” recording session is now available on Verizon Wireless’ V CAST Video service.

I miss when pop stars would just dance in front of Pepsi logos in Super Bowl ads and leave it at that.
