Fourteen years ago this month, Aaliyah was killed in a plane crash in the Bahamas while filming a music video for "Rock the Boat." A posthumous album titled I Care 4 U was released a year later, but Aaliyah fans have been waiting ever since to hear the R&B singer's voice again.
Yesterday, Timbaland — Aaliyah's close friend, collaborator and producer — announced that he has unreleased songs that he plans to release, according to Billboard.
"Attention!!!!! People ask me all the time do I have any babegirl music we haven't heard !!!!!well the answer is YES!!!!!!!! TIMBO x BABEGIRL !!!!!," he wrote in a post on Instagram. "Sneak peak coming !!!!!!!"
In 2012, Drake announced that he was contacted by Blackground Records to produce an album of unreleased Aaliyah material with his producer Noah "40" Shebib. Aaliyah's family even gave Drake their blessing to work on the project. In 2013, he revealed in an interview with Elliot Wilson that he was cut from the project, stating, "I think the press got out of hand and they maybe had a different vision for it or something. It was sounding great to me. Whatever they end up doing with it, I wish them the best of luck."
