    Drake To Reportedly Executive Produce Aaliyah's Next Album, Features Her On New Single | Get The Latest Hip Hop News, Rap News & Hip Hop Album Sales | HipHop DX

    Drake is reportedly set to executive produce Aaliyah’s upcoming posthumous album. He is also slated to feature the late singer on his new single.
    A reliable source with inside knowledge of the situation told HipHopDX that the Young Money rapper, who has a tattoo of the songstress on his back, will sit at the helm for her new LP. Details surrounding the album are scarce, but in March, producer Jeffrey “J. Dub” Walker said that an unreleased song titled “Steady Ground” will appear on the project. Aaliyah’s brother, Rashad Haughton, later said that no such album was in the works.
    In late March, Drake hinted to Tim Westwood that he had some “special things” related to Aaliyah in motion. “I have some great Aaliyah news coming soon,” he said. “Just some special things. Just gave you that, just a little. Because I said, I’m with Westwood, so I can’t not. But great things, great things for music, period.”
    Additionally, Drake, who sampled Aaliyah’s “At Your Best (You Are Love)” for his track “Unforgettable,” is reportedly set to feature her vocals on his upcoming single. He is set to debut the song at the OVO Festival, taking place this Sunday (August 5th) at Toronto, Canada’s Molson Amphitheatre.

        I don't set out to be different. I set out to be me, and people think that's different.

              How can you produce beats to a dead woman?

              I mean if the album was about unrealesed songs that's cool, but how will she sing in a new beat when she ain't even alive?

                The same way 2Pac rapped on Eminem beats.

                  yeah but, tupac was a rapper so his verses are easy to put on another song like a blend.....but its hard to put a singer on another beat...

                    We'll see just how things go... It's not like it's impossible to build an instrumental around an acapella verse right?
                    BTW, it looks like Timbaland wants in on this project as well.
