Okay so I’m going to jibber jabber for a second…
I love Aaliyah with all my heart. She was amazing and still has a strong influence on hip hop and R&B today.
But she is dead. She is gone. And her unreleased music should stay that way. I hate it when other artist’s use dead artist’s vocals for…
Preach, please!!! I don’t know why artists “collaborate” with deceased artists. In no way is it the same as having the person actually lay down their voice unique to the song. I don’t agree with it. I only think Chris is using Aaliyah’s voice because Drake did so first. Therefore, it’s very distasteful. Drake dissed Chris Brown in his Aaliyah sampled song, so what, is Chris gonna do the same? To use a fallen artist’s music as a way to disrespect someone one is disgusting.
The only people I would approve of reworking unfinished songs would be Timberland and Missy Elliot. If they aren’t attempting to bring her music to light, no one should be. Why do these two have access to her music anyway? Her family needs to get that on lock, real quick.
