Because Jive owns the rights. The others are held by her uncle. Bunch of timbaland's shyt ain't streaming for the same reasons.

her other albums as well as some the timbaland & co compilations were on blackground records which went through a series of sales and their music is now owned by some overseas company that won't release it. no new prints, not on streaming, can't buy on digitally, etc. one of the WOAT moves in music history
shyt is crazy :mindblown: I just finished watching this video breaking it down



How much is all her stuff worth? And how much would it cost to buy back? Surprised Tim, Puff or Jay or something hasn’t
At least pooled their money together to buy it back.

It don’t make any sense on the companies’ parts, like how do they not wanna take advantage of the financial incentives from releasing the rest of her music on streaming services? Maybe I’m missing something here :mindblown:

It legit a whole new generation of young people who are curious about Aaliyah because they like some of her samples that their fav artist used or because of how beautiful and swagged out she looked from the shirts of her in Spencer’s, FYE, etc. to online images of her on social media.

why do yall act like both can't happen? i downloaded her albums awhile ago after my cd collection was stolen and after seeing it wasn't available as a digital download or on streaming. for the things that aren't on streaming services, it's not hard to go download or cop the physical yet still use streaming for the vast majority of your listening

Someone physically stole your cd collection?
