I know the Li fans Tryna petition a lipstick line for her thru MAC, but has there been a petition yet to get her music on these iTunes and all these streaming sites, it's kinda crazy u can't purchase her albums digitally?! Luckily I got a copy of all her albums while they were still in print
now that'd be a petition I'd sign tbh

Annie

The MAC thing is cute but I need some music or a nice taschen style photobook

im really pissed all her stuff isnt available online on like itunes or Tidal

so annoying

whos fault is it?
QuoteSo the reason why Aaliyah?s music isn?t available for you to buy or stream is, you guessed it, is because of some messy music industry business involving Aaliyah?s former music label Blackground Records. The record sold hundred?s of the hit songs that were under their label (including most of Aaliyah?s music) to Reservoir Media Management. Reservoir Media Management now has full rights to her music after acquiring it in 2012 and are not releasing it to iTunes, apple music, spotify or any of the other beloved streaming services (any time soon at least).

Here?s a list of other songs that are in the same chokehold as Aaliyah?s catalogue

    Aaliyah ? Aaliyah
    Aaliyah ? One in a Million
    Romeo Must Die Original Soundtrack
    Ashley Parker Angel  ? Soundtrack to you Life
    Toni Braxton ? Libra
    Tank ? Force of Nature
    Tank ? One Man
    Tank ? Sex, Love & Pain
    Timbaland & Magoo ? Welcome to Our World
    Timbaland & Magoo ? Indecent Proposal
    Timbaland & Magoo ? Under Construction Pt. II

Reservoir joins the millions of fans marking the fifteen year anniversary of Aaliyah?s passing this week. Since 2001, lovers of Aaliyah?s music have followed the whereabouts of her top-selling albums like One In A Million and Aaliyah, plus enduring hit singles like ?If Your Girl Only Knew?, ?Are You That Somebody??, and ?Try Again?.
As the music publisher of many titles performed by Aaliyah, our role is to represent her catalog?s songs, songwriters, and copyrights through careful administration and licensing, as it is our privilege to do. Our representation allows us to make this music available for licensing in films, TV, and advertisements; clear it for sampling in new recordings; celebrate its creative reinterpretations on sites like YouTube; uphold its rights in legal disputes; and support any new releases that may be made available to the public by record labels. While Reservoir is honored to work with songs written for Aaliyah in this capacity, we do not represent any songs written by Aaliyah herself, nor can we act as a distributor of any of her recorded music as a record label would.
We appreciate the public?s keen interest in Aaliyah's music, and remain committed as ever to protecting and respecting this beloved artist?s musical legacy.
