So what we know so far besides the couple of singles released is the forever #winning The-Dream has collaborated for The Iron Way project due out later this week. And while the multi-talented producer and auto-tune innovator in T-Pain has kept most of the details under wraps, he revealed a serious insider tip at SXSW. Looks like the Upcoming T-Pain Mixtape Will Feature Unreleased Aaliyah Vocals!!!
Though we’ve heard “Did It Anyway,” “Wait A Minute,” and “Let Your Hair Down” which features The-Dream, the buzz going around is a lot of surprises are waiting for us with this project. Now we’re definitely getting somewhere knowing the Upcoming T-Pain Mixtape Will Feature Unreleased Aaliyah Vocals. Vibe reports on their SXSW interview with him that a previously “unheard” feature by the original “Baby Girl” will make it to our ears.
The Upcoming T-Pain Mixtape Will Feature Unreleased Aaliyah Vocals following what he says were two songs he did for her posthumous album a couple of years back. Her vocals found their way to his possession for that project and obviously he held on. But relax y’all!!!–he’s reported to have been officially allowed to keep them for his personal use, and so here we are:
“I think on this mixtape I really just enjoyed doing it so much,” T-Pain tells VIBE. “I made all brand new songs. I didn’t put a bunch of throwaways on there and make a mixtape.” The upcoming project features guest appearances from the likes of Bun B, Big K.R.I.T., Big Cash from Nappy Boy, Shawn J from Field Mob and one very special feature. “I actually have Aaliyah on a song,” T-Pain reveals to VIBE. “These are vocals people never heard before. They were actually doing an Aaliyah album a few years ago. They told me do two songs and I could pick one to keep.” Pain says the song is titled “Girlfriends” and is a slower track, but definitely not a ballad.
Well alright, alright, alright!!! Does the sound of that the Upcoming T-Pain Mixtape Will Feature Unreleased Aaliyah Vocals excite you or weird you out??? Is hearing Aaliyah vocals always good or does it depend on the song? Guess we’ll stay tuned on this one!

I think it is so great to hear that T-Pain will be using Aaliyah’s vocals. The “Princess” is getting so much love from many artists that include, Chris Brown, Drake, and now T-Pain. I am sure she is looking down seeing what these artists are doing for her by keeping her legacy alive. She had the most beautiful and unique voice there was and I will be looking forward to hearing the unheard lyrics by Aaliyah.
The amount of respect these artists give to her, allow he to stay close to everyone’s hearts that loved her so much. There is a lot of hype that Aaliyah would be the biggest female artist today. I think that hype is true. No one can say that just because she passed is the reason for the respect being there.
I think she would have the equal amount of respect because she would have accomplished so much by now. I believe she would have had 15 albums at least by now. She would be a world-wide entertainer. Beyonce would be where she is now, but Aaliyah would be above her in popularity.
I like Beyonce too, don’t get me wrong. I just think that Aaliyah would have had more time than her by now and that is why.
