Previously Unreleased Aaliyah Song "Quit Hatin" Hits The Net
posted in: Music News • Pop • Urban
There has been talk for months about the release of a posthumous album from Aaliyah that will be executive produced by Drake and released through Blackground Records. Though that particular release may or may not feature the song that follows, I feel it’s important to note that this is not a one-off leak. There is more Aaliyah material on the way in 2013, and this post is only the beginning.
Wednesday (January 16) marked what would have been Aaliyah’s thirty-fourth birthday. A few members of the press highlighted the date, but most disregarded the day altogether until a never-before-released song entitled “Quit Hatin” began popping up on blogs. The song is a smooth and soulful jam that fits perfectly with the aesthetic of music the songstress had been writing at the time of her death, and to be honest I found it hard to fight off goosebumps while it played. No one ever questioned the great loss felt when news of Aaliyah’s death broke, and after hearing this song it is easy to understand why. Click below to stream “Quit Hatin.”
