Title: Dr. Dre sampling Aaliyah for new song
Post by: woof on August 12, 2012, 11:39:26 AM
Reservoir Media Management EVP Rell Lafargue estimates that there is enough leftover material for two posthumous Aaliyah albums, while Hankerson says that approximation might be "a little premature." Talks between Blackground and Reservoir began roughly 15 months ago for the latter to acquire the 500-song catalog that includes Aaliyah's archives, music from Static Major and albums from JoJo, Timbaland, Magoo and Tank. As part of the deal, Reservoir, a boutique publishing company with top 40 hits from 50 Cent, Madonna and Justin Timberlake, will market Aaliyah's music to television and film, as well as release songs to online services like iTunes and Spotify where much of her music cannot be currently found. Additionally, the company will assist with licensing of songs for covers and sampling (Lafargue notes that there are talks of Dr. Dre sampling "Rock the Boat" for a new song).

we've been hearing about this song for months. it was titled "dope" and it features game. i assume its been complete but legal shiznit prevented it from being on the red album. remember the rumor at one point was that "dope" and "dead people" got moved to detox??

If that's the case, then they're probably working with the first few lines of the song.

Boy, you know you make me float
Boy, you really get me high
I feel like I'm on dope
'Cause you serve me on a regular


It would be nice if they flipped the instrumental too.

I am disappointed with that I've heard of Detox so far, I thought it was going to be some far out, surround sound, concept album similar to Pink Floyd's Dark Side of The Moon. So far I've heard nothing but sloppy turds
