How come Aaliyah first album is the only one on streaming services???

[Kingshango]

Blackground Records are full of shyt, that's why.

Yeah I had a similiar question in one of my older threads and breh put me on to the aaliyah situation.
Jojo was apparently on the same label so she had to re-record all her shyt to stream.

Damn shame because thats a GOAT series of albums that we don't have access to. Tim's Bio is a personal classic tbh

Prodigy's shyt got taken down a few months after his death.

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

Why wouldn't Background or the new label not want to release the music though? They'd make millions off streams per year - why not let it sit for years?

This is from the thread I posted above

There was a Complex article about Blackground. The gist of it was the dude who owns the label (Aaliyah's uncle Barry Hankerson) owes a ton of money from lawsuit a woman filed against him for stalking her, and the label royalties are how he is supposed to pay her, and he's such a weirdo that he would rather just not generate any money through the label than have to pay the woman anything
