You Know what I find odd?

The company that had it on iTunes, Craze Productions, They had her "one in a million" And "Aaliyah" albums on amazon mp3 and iTunes back in 2008 and they were pulled in 2013 after Aaliyah's uncle sued

Apparently, this plays a part in why they're unavailable for purchase - a legal battle over ownership

But if there is a battle over ownership Then how is T.I. able to sample "rock the boat"?

The company that had "ultimate" On iTunes, Craze,

they had her last 2 albums on iTunes and amazon digital several years ago

but they got taken down when Aaliyah's uncle filed a lawsuit since Aaliyah's music isn't theirs to distribute.

Also, it's probably a good idea at this point that her music's not out there

I see Timbaland being sued for "more than a woman" And "Don't know what to tell ya"

Since they have uncredited Arabic Samples

I mean he got sued for what he used on Big Pimpin' by Jay-z
