Missy Elliot & Timberland On Aaliyah Album

Shortly after releasing "Enough Said" featuring the late singer Aaliyah, rapper Drake made it public that he would be producing an Aaliyah album. Immediately red flags went up, especially after it was made known that Aaliyah's closest friends and engineers Missy Elliot and Timberland would not be included in the project. However, the main question has been "How do Missy and Timberland feel about this?" Timberland himself spoke to 97.9 and said ["I don't even know if it's an album, I don't think that's in the works. I don't know, I think it's blown out of proportion. I haven't spoken to Drake yet. I have a hard time just hearing her music," Tim said when asked about the reported LP. "[His obsession?] To me.....the tattoo part, did that man come in here and show ya'll. Like lift up his shirt, I mean they said pictures are online." (Miss Info TV)"]  

Then Missy enlightened us on how she feels about doing an Aaliyah album, as well as what she thinks about Drake's awkward crush or "obsession" towards Aaliyah ["No call has been made to me. I have to respect her family, and until they come and say they're ready to do an Aaliyah album then I don't really want to get into that because it's very sensitive. It's not records that already done came out, we're talking about unfinished music. And we don't know what her reasoning for not putting those records out," Missy said in reference to the LP. "Maybe she didn't feel like they were her best work. We just don't want to tap into that, just spiritually something else you know.....very very touchy. Unless her parents came in and conducted that. ... think that the tattoo is real, I did see a picture of it. You know what, let me be quiet....you know what it is, because he's a human being too. A lot of people may not have met Michael Jackson, but feel they have a connection with him." (Miss Info TV)]
