I don?t know. None of her songs debuted at #1 (Hot 100). She did debut at #1 (in the UK) with ?More than a Woman?, tho. Maybe that?s it?
Did Kelly price's friend of mine debut at #1 (r&b chart)?

Missy and Tim weren?t going to appear on it because of money disputes with Barry. Tim eventually folded at the last minute and did a few tracks. ALL contained stolen samples. :plzstop:

Right.I knew about More Than A Woman being a sample but not this.Tim and Missy dig deep in the crates.
Sample? He just straight stole it. :ummwhat:
Surprised he and Missy never got sued for it. The writers must be dead or something.
My theory is that it wasn?t ready for OIAM because they couldn?t clear the sample (maybe they had trouble tracking the writers down). By the Red album, they just said f it.
But yeah, my whole opinion changed on Tim as a producer when I heard the original.

1:27. Although, I must concede it was very creative to take that short few seconds and make greatness. :plzstop:
Was "Are you that somebody" sampled?
I heard the story of how he "created" it... but who knows...
I don?t think so. I don?t think he started stealing until 1999-2000 with Big Pimpin and the foreign sounds.
Like I said, he was under a time crunch on Aaliyah?s third album. He probably threw the songs together quickly just to make the deadline out of love for her, because he was beefin with Barry at the time.
Missy said she ain?t doin it. :overit:

So you mean even with how iconic One in A Million is, it never charted?
not on the hot 100, no
same for TOP OF THE WORLD (Brandy) -- it was airplay only.
Both songs charted on the AIRPLAY charts, tho. Top 10s (for R&B).
One in a Million went #1, even.
This was BEFORE airplay-only songs were allowed to chart, which began in late 1998.

Both songs would have easily hit Top 10 (Hot 100) at the very least.
They were smashes.
But labels wanted album sales... I understand it.
It worked out well for both.
If the airplay-only rules never changed, TRY AGAIN would have never charted either...
And ARE YOU THAT SOMEBODY is airplay-only too.
It only managed to chart on the Hot 100 (#21) because it was at its highest peak during the airplay-only change.

Fall 1998 was lit as fuck.

Airplay-only songs weren't terrible. "ANGEL" was another airplay-only song.
