What's Hot

Drake recently unveiled his redux of Aaliyah’s “Enough Said,” and rumors of his involvement with a posthumous album from the singer have been buzzing. However, Aaliyah’s family claims they are not involved or supportive of such a project. The late singer’s brother, Rashad Haughton, told The Guardian, “There is no official album being released and supported by the Haughton family.”

“Enough Said” is built from one of Aaliyah’s previously unreleased vocal tracks and produced by Noah “40″ Shebib. Drake added his own verse to the track, in which he brags about his watch, which seems really appropriate. So far the number has drawn a lot of criticism and not too much praise. Aaliyah, who died in 2001, was known for her work with Missy Elliott and Timbaland, but neither artist was approached to work on this track — or any future ones. Timbaland said, “I don’t know what’s going on. The proper way to do [a collaboration] would be for me, [Drake] and Missy to be all on the record.”
.

It sounds like Drake has since made contact with the producer, however. Timbaland will reportedly produce two songs on this rumored Aaliyah album, with Shebib helming the other numbers. The singer’s family has not been contacted, though, much to their dismay. The family wrote on Facebook, “Do you want a [new] Aaliyah album? If so, who should executive produce it or be featured on it? The Haughton family would love to hear what her FANS have to say.”
.

Unfortunately, Drake doesn’t need the family support exactly. According to The Guardian, Aaliyah’s uncle and manager, Barry Hankerson, issued all of her previous records and is likely to own the rights to her unreleased recordings. Hankerson runs a company called Blackground, which co-released “Enough Said” with Drake’s October’s Very Own. So it looks like this album is happening no matter what.
