I found this out when I played This is Timbaland playlist. This usually happens once or twice a year. Once Barry finds out it gets pulled.

I am so grateful I bought the One In A Million CD, Dr. Doolitle soundtrack, and burned the leaked copy of Aaliyah (given how much I played that album out, one of my biggest regrets in life is not buying a legit copy). Imagine having to rely on streaming to listen to one of the greats and not being able to. I have Age Ain't Nothing But A Number on cassette but I haven't had any desire to listen to that in ages. Actually, thanks to I Care For You compilation, I have Back & Forth and At Your Best, which are the only two things I care about from her debut anyway. I also have her contributions from Romeo Must Die.

Why don't they want to put her stuff on streaming sites?? Wouldn't everyone involved around her estate make money if they were? I own all of her cd's and a few of her singles so I don't care but it stinks in this streaming world if someone yanks there stuff off of it.

I feel like Aaliyah would want her fans to be able to listen to her music... she was all about connecting with them.

Wait! How did I miss the memo? “More Than a Woman” and “Are You That Somebody?” are on Spotify! In addition to the 3 PGriffin mentioned: Don't Worry and Rock the Boat! I just need Extra Smooth, Try Again and IC4 and I won't complain about the other stuff.

So did the statute of limitations finally expire on all his outstanding debts or did he just finally find himself broke enough to outweigh his need to be petty and not pay what he owes?
I hope it's true but I'll believe it when I see it [2]. It's forever middle fingers up to Barry.

WTF ?! DID HELL JUST FREEZE OVER?!
I guess Barry is tired of holding out (and is probably damn near broke at this point).
They should put all of her singles on there too

I just read that the supposed Barry Hankerson twitter account might be fake :(
Still holding out hope tho.

That Barry Hankerson tweet is fake by the way. Here's the full interview from the one previously posted which was done a month before her death: I have been following this account for years now, you can watch all Aaliyah interviews and reach out to all music related stuff (BTS/Remixes etc etc)

20 of who's years?!?!? Wow. I'm still sad over her passing but I'm happy to see her influence on so many artists (especially the younger ones).
Can we get her up on streaming now? Thanks!

Im just really confused as to why her music isn’t getting the proper handling it deserves. Can someone fill me in - I already understand her uncle, Blackground drama etc but as her family, do they not want to do ANYTHING to commemorate her? Even if they didn’t want to put her music on streaming...re-releases? VINYL? They would make profit off of vinyl, I can tell you that. It’s such a shame.
