Well-known rapper and record producer Timbaland -- also known as Tim Mosley (to the IRS and to his mom) -- is making his prime time TV debut.

Though the prolific artist has had his music showcased on several series -- including "The Wire," "Gilmore Girls," "Entourage" and "So You Think You Can Dance" -- he hasn't done much acting. But that could be changing as reliable sources tell me Timbaland will cameo in the second "FlashForward" episode to air this year.

Word is, the cameo is very quick. Like Seth MacFarlane quick. But you will see Timbaland... if you're watching out for him.

So what do you think? Should Timbaland try his hand at a new career?

"FlashForward" returns Thursday, Mar. 18th at 8 p.m. on ABC
