During the OIAM Aaliyah, like Brandy, was signed to Atlantic. I remember reading an article that at the time Atlantic purposely avoided releasing too many commercial singles due to fear that it would detract from record sales (I.e. people would buy the song they like but not actually buy the album). Some would argue their hypothesis was true. Nearly every single from Monica's second album was released as a physical single, which counted toward chart positions. Two of those (not including TBIM) went on to become #1 hits on BB Hot 100. But her actual (even to this date) hasn't sold nearly as much as NSN. I guarantee that if Atlantic released more physical singles commercially, she would have more chart hits from NSN. Regardless, I don't think anyone (at least at Atlantic) was trying to sabotage her career by not releasing more physical singles. They simply wanted people to buy the album.
