Aaliyah


Being inside a studio always felt like home to me. Those familiar feelings all came rushing back and I felt the same excitement I did while recording "One in a Million." We were actually meeting a new artist on the record label that Tim, Rashad and I decided to launch over a year ago. Her name is Tink and she wants to remix "One in a Million." It amazes me when younger generations fall in love with music so many years later.


I turned my head because I heard Rashad and Kidada arguing.


R: You were supposed to call me last night anyway. What happened?

K: I was drunk boy and I fell asleep

R: See how you do me? You could have been in my arms

K: (pops lips) Rashad, do not start with me. The damn phone works both ways

R: It does but-

A: Well damn, heeeyyy Rashad

R: (looks my way) Heyyy sis! (picks Liyah up and spins her around)

A: Oh my God, put me down Rashad!

R: (kisses her cheek) What's going on sis?!

A: Nothing much (blows a rasberry on his cheek)

R: What they do Timbo??!

T: What's good bro?! (daps him up/half hugs his shoulder)

R: So where's this artist at?


We got a chance to sit down with Tink and listen to her vision. She's really talented and I felt good about the direction of her career. Tim even came up with the baseline of the beat for the song. We all decided to call it a day and go get something to eat. On the way out the studio, we bumped into Drake and Noah. I couldn't help but stare. He was gorgeous. When I said I was a fan of his, I truly meant it. There isn't a drake song that I do not know. He smiled at me.


D: I hope this is a good sign that you're in the lab making more music?

A: (smiles) Naw, just scoping out the scene for future talent

D: What a shame

Noah: Yeah Liyah, it is a shame. I've been trying to get in touch with you for a collaboration with my mans here

A: Oh really?

Noah: Yeah, I got some fire for ya

A: Hmm, well. We'll definitely be in touch Noah.

T: Matter of fact, yall want to join us for something to eat?

Noah: Shit, I can use some food

D: I'm down

T: aight, let's be out!

D: (holds the door for Aaliyah) After you

A: (smiles) Thank you

Some guy: Damn, hey Kidada!

K: (looks back/waves) Hey boo!

R: Boo?! (looks at the guy)

K: ugghh, boy move (pushes Rashad out the door)

R: who the f-

K: Kiss me or diss me

R: ugh! (kisses her cheek)
