It's no argument how much Aaliyah's 2001 single "Rock The Boat" ranks as sensual R&B perfection. One of the maturest offerings from the late great Baby Girl's relatively small, yet very iconic catalog, the track seeped late-night pleasure from its every crevice, coming inches close, if not directly matching, Marvin Gaye's sexiest soul titillations not only from the silken, serpentine way Aaliyah detailed her romantic devotion to a lover while directing his every move between the sheets but also via the summer-splashed production, a throwback to 802s grooves that ebbed and flowed with such eased, liquid-like seduction, it [...]

No te preocupes! I'm not going to write this entire post in Spanish. It's just that last night I was visited by the other Jeremy -- the one who brought over the six pack that changed the course of my life last year, the one who is now in Bangkok on holiday -- and he got me thinking in Spanish. While he told me all about his life working as a miner in Perth (much to my surprise, there's no digging underground involved, and he says he only spends about six hours out of [...]
After hearing the cool R&B spin Lloyd has put on Future's "Turn On The Lights" and Kendrick Lamar's "Swimming Pools" (heard below) in recent months, if the entirety of the crooner's forthcoming mixtape The Playboy Diaries involved nothing more than him applying his featherweight tenor and original lyrics onto beats familiar, there would honestly be no complaining from this corner of the Interwebz. Latest Diaries preview "Sexcapade" puts a pause on the tour through hip hop's Greatest Recent Hits for a sample swipe from Aaliyah's One In A Million [...]

More Than A Women: Aaliyah’s music stands the test of time In the predominately male-driven hip-hop industry, successful female performers are and far between compared to their ultra-macho peers. The late Aaliyah Haughton, however, was an anomaly. She inspired a unique brand of hip-hop and R&B for her own generation as well as future ones. More than ten years have passed since Aaliyah died in a plane crash in the Bahamas at the age of 22, but a recent reintroduction of her music through sampling has motivated contingents of male hip-hop artists to finally open up [...]
Ciara - Goodies Laface: 2004 The deification of Aaliyah in recent years is uncomfortable for a number of reasons. As you may well have heard, the frontman of indie-rock band Yeasayer recently invoked the late singer’s name in his rejection of R. Kelly’s work, implying that Kelly represented a crass style of R&B music that Aaliyah somehow transcended. Ignoring the fact that the two musicians worked together and were rumored at one point to be married, the statement describes a larger trend in the singer’s popularity. Now lifted from the [...]

I know, I know. At 15, Aaliyah said it best (if a tad ungrammatically) in the title of her 1994 debut album: Age ain't nothing but a number. Normally, I'd be inclined to agree -- anything to ease the slight fear and loathing being brought on by my rapidly approaching mid 40s -- except ain't that so not the total truth. I'm reminded of this every time I see someone of a certain age (in general, 50ish and above) trying to look like it's 20 years ago. The reality of age being a lot more than just [...]

DMX continues to blast Drake over his involvement with Aaliyah's posthumous album. X sat down with AllHipHop to promote his latest project Undisputed but was asked once again to share [...] The post DMX: "Drake's A F*ckin' Piece Of Sh*t" appeared first on The Smoking Section .
Une fois encore, Satin Jackets revient avec un tout nouveau morceau complètement fou. Il s'agit en quelque sorte d'un rework du morceau Rock The Boat de la chanteuse Aaliyah qui a été renommé Aaliyah's Boat pour l'occasion. Remix ou original, le résultat reste le même : magnifique. Des sons tropicaux mélangés à des voix R'N'B de Aaliyah est la formule qui a fonctionné tout l'été, surtout avec le label French Express , et qui va continuer à faire des ravages pendant encore quelques temps je pense. Vous pouvez télécharger ce morceau [...]

Ah, two new remixes of Aaliyah 's 'Rock The Boat' came out this year. Isn't this a wonderful world we live in? They're both fantastic, not sure which one to choose. All Summer, I've loved ColeCo 's version, off their deliciously free 'El Verano' EP . Unfortunately I missed the boat on sharing it with you all. Shame! The next one comes via Germany's onwn Satin Jackets , and it's dubbed ' Aaliyah 's [...]
I don't know if we've ever posted anything from Satin Jacket's on this site. But if we haven't, I sincerely apologize. Something like that is totally inexcusable. We've been following Satin Jackets for a while now, so I honestly don't know how none of his tracks have made it onto this site. To make up for this abomination, I've decided to share with you his latest rework of Aaliyah's single "Rock The Boat," which is aptly renamed "Aaliyah's Boat." Actually, I'd probably classify this song as more of an original, because like the lads over at French Express, he only really [...]

Si chiacchiera da mesi dell'album postumo di Aaliyah . Sono nate polemiche a non finire sulla scelta di pubblicare brani demo della cantante, scomparsa a soli 22 anni il 25 agosto 2001. Il fratello della cantante si è da sempre opposto e dichiarato contrario al rilascio di ulteriori tracce ma il tutto è stato inutile poichè il progetto è al già avviato. E lo zio -nonchè ex manager della star scomparsa- Barry Hankerson, ha reso pubblico sul suo Twitter la cover del nuovo album. Un'immagine che mostra Aaliyah in una scena del suo ultimo video "Rock the [...]
