Tracks have over 12 million streams after a little more than an hour! Those are all past streams from when non-authorized uploads of the album and its songs were on Spotify. The playcount does not update after less than a day.

I think the album should be able to re-peak on Billboard 200 tbqh.
If the Vinyl/Casette/Special CDs had pre-orders and promotion months in advance and all shipped this week I'd even go as far as to say it possibly could've been a #1 album contender this week. But I'm much more fine with the rollout of announcing everything this month and getting right to it. This isn't even new music, it would've been painful to have this teased for months straight before getting it when we should'v already had it so long ago.

God I could cry, finally having this gem of an album and just having finished listening to it in full for the first time in years was divine.
The album still is fantastic and hasn't aged, whatever chart success this attracts is just a cherry on top but just having the album on streaming is enough of a gift.

25 years later an only "The One I Gave My Heart To" and "A Girl Like You" sound tied to the 90s. The rest is pure fire!!
EDIT: Oooh! The video for "The One I Gave My Heart To" has the single mix with the key change!!

The album has been discounted to $6.99 on iTunes Store...I'm tempted.

Now we just need "Death of a Playa," "No Days Go By," and "Are You Ready?" to make this era complete.
I guess "Journey To The Past" too.

The video for "The One I Gave My Heart To" has the single mix with the key change!! I really wish the single mix would be available for stream/purchase. It's far superior. I always had the video rip just to have that. I'm thrilled this is finally on streaming. IYGOK and HLF(Timba version) are still tops for me.

The "radio mix" version on the Maxi-single is just an edit of the single mix. Am I the only person who never knew there were more singles after OIAM until after her death? I mean I was a kid when it was out but I do remember the video from IYGOK being on MTV/BET a lot of and OIAM being on the radio every F*CKING 5 minutes (I ended up hating the song because the radio played it TOO much)

No I was in 2/3rd grade during the OIAM era. I remember Monica, Toni Braxton Tupac, Bigge etc singles all over the radio but nothing Aaliyah after OIAM until AYTS. I do remember her briefly promoting Anastasia and seeing the video for โJourney to the Pastโ. I donโt think my parents had cable at our house in 97โ so that may have been why lmao

I decided to purchase the album. I also got excited to see it at #1 on iTunes. I hope it sells enough to be top 5 next week or even challenge for #1. The years of fans waiting for the release should definitely push it to #1, I'm hoping. I know the situation; however, she deserves. Its a good celebration for her 20th passing if we put it that way.

I vividly remember some kind of flyer/postcard/print advert coming with the Sunday paper that advertised her debut album and nobody in my house knowing how to pronounce her name. She stayed in heavy rotation on BET and The BOX once OIAM dropped.
