I always felt like Tim abandoned the old crew (Magoo, Ginuwine, Missy, etc) once he got pop success with Justin and the whites.  :fuming:

Something definitely happened with Timbaland and the old crew, but I don't think it was Justin.

When Timbaland's own label that he started didn't work out is when he cut ties with everyone.

I think some people in the business told him that he needed to switch up his style, that his "classic" sound was getting old.

Or he is just full of shit. Let's not forgot even Aaliyah was mad at him before her death. Maggie, Missy, Gin, everyone was upset with Tim. Idk what he did to those people.

Li wasn't fooling with him because she wanted the Keybeats songs to lead the album and he was full of himself and probably said something like "do you think you'll be successful with that?" Wnar wasn't supposed to be the single but, the label.

Wow.

No shade, but I think King got it right. Loose Rap doesn't even sound like a single, much less a comeback single.

MTAM was the obvious choice though.

Lolz, I don't think that's why she was mad at him because the label wanted Tim to have the first single and Liyah pushed for More Than a Women on her own remember. So if she was mad, it was because they choose Resolution over Women for first single.

Tim ain't get shit right. If he said anything like that, it was out of pure jealousy, not strategy. I think Quee was serving a warmup mess with Loose OR WNAR. A slow burner album. They knew MTAW was a BOP bop that's why that amazing ass video was already filmed and in the stash. But RTB said wayment, on the radio, and intercepted.

Queen was really out here not performing WNAR and just strictly doing MTAW. Her rehearsing WNAR in her Diary episode was such a tease b/c it never came to life.  :'(

MTAW would've been a cute lead though and I guess a proper follow up to the Try Again success but she wouldn't be Li if she ain't go with the too left choice w/ WNAR

I would love for someone who worked on that campaign to really give BTS insight

Tim said he wasn't getting paid by Blackground, which makes since due to Barry.  Missy also refused to work on Aaliyah's red album.  Tim did as well, but relented at the last minute. 

Not sure why everyone else was mad.

She really should have that time, tbh.

I think the album and Barry were putting needless pressure on her because they panicked once WNAR didn't pop like they wanted.  They rushed her to film the RTB video, didn't book flights properly to accommodate the entire crew, and tragedy was the result.  I don't think there would have been all that pressure had MTAW been dominating the airwaves at the time.  :stressed:

I do think she wanted to avoid being too predictable and formulaic as an artist.  A run to Tim for a hot bop mess would have been expected.  And safe.

She already struck gold when she gave relative unknowns a chance to take the helm of her previous album.  She wanted to do the same thing with Keybeats.  Sis was a risk-taker.  :oof:

Filming for Queen of the Damned played a major part on why Missy and Tim didn't work on the Red album in its core stages... Their schedules didn't allow it and I'm sure the pay wasn't enough to force them to be in Australia for a while... I remember Tim saying he wasn't going to send her beats either during that period

I don't know. Ever since the special where he said "if it wasn't an accident, may God have mercy on their (those responsible) souls."

Why is that even a thought, a possibility? He knows something and that never sat well with me. It wasn't an accident though. And for them to send her to Bahamas after a lot of scenes were already shot in the states. You have to go to the Bahamas for beach scenes? And provide them poor accommodations while there too? oh girl. the whole thing was bullshit

I never thought her death was an accident. I think it was just her time to go. It was too much money on the table for Barry and her at that time to have her killed. He was struggling afterwards to find artists.

The label wanted the tried and true formula but Aaliyah wanted what she wanted, regardless of whether it would "flop" or not. Aaliyah wasn't a "gotta have a hit :fuming: "  type artist.


She really should have that time, tbh.

I think the album and Barry were putting needless pressure on her because they panicked once WNAR didn't pop like they wanted.  They rushed her to film the RTB video, didn't book flights properly to accommodate the entire crew, and tragedy was the result.  I don't think there would have been all that pressure had MTAW been dominating the airwaves at the time.  :stressed:

Sadly I don't believe proper bookings of flights was the cause. I don't think her death was accidental. Never have.


Whatchu mean, love?   :omgwatshappening: :omgwatshappening: :omgwatshappening: :mmyulost:

Lolz, I don't think that's why she was mad at him because the label wanted Tim to have the first single and Liyah pushed for More Than a Women on her own remember. So if she was mad, it was because they choose Resolution over Women for first single.

Queen was really out here not performing WNAR and just strictly doing MTAW. Her rehearsing WNAR in her Diary episode was such a tease b/c it never came to life.  :'(

MTAW would've been a cute lead though and I guess a proper follow up to the Try Again success but she wouldn't be Li if she ain't go with the too left choice w/ WNAR

I would love for someone who worked on that campaign to really give BTS insight

I do think she wanted to avoid being too predictable and formulaic as an artist.  A run to Tim for a hot bop mess would have been expected.  And safe.

She already struck gold when she gave relative unknowns a chance to take the helm of her previous album.  She wanted to do the same thing with Keybeats.  Sis was a risk-taker.  :oof:

Keybeats didn't make anything on that album single worthy. The label knew that.


Rock the Boat begs to differ.

It's so funny because I forgot they did that. It sounds nothing like Loose Rap, Extra, Between the Lines, U Got Nerve and stuff. I guess because it was recorded years prior. Boat and Kane was their only single worthy mess.

RTB
MTAW

Eons ago, I remember typing up video treatments on AaliyahOnline.   nnmmmmmkkkkkm

I Refuse would have been a dope single as well.  I think the whites would've liked it.

ummm

I LOVE WNAR.

I've stanned on here countless times n

But for a first single? No. It was too dark for spring time and a reintroduction back into music after not putting an album out in 5 years

Post by: CREAM. on January 08, 2020, 07:51:40 AM
But I appreciate the fact that Aaliyah wasn't chasing trends or charts

A true artist.

:oof:

WNAR is a gem. It almost pained me to type my previous post :stressed:

Yeah. I remember first hearing the song and seeing the video when she premiered it in 106 and Park. It was so next level and she had crinkly hair and tight clothes on. I was so freaking amazed.

Layzie Bone married the girl singing.  Her vocals are Li-ish there.

They should have just gave it to Aaliyah but I understand cause it was a family album.
