Timbaland Dismisses Chris Brown And Drake Aaliyah Duets: 'Her Music Only Works With Me'

Timbaland has spoken out about Drake and Chris Brown’s recent posthumous duets with late R&B singer Aaliyah - claiming that he’s the only one who can truly produce music with her, as he is her ‘soulmate’.
The warring rappers have each recorded a track with the star using vocals recorded prior to her tragic 2001 death, but superstar producer Timbaland reckons he’s the only one who can make music with her that will ‘work’. He told Revolt:
“It ain't gonna work because Aaliyah music only works with her soulmate, which is me.”
Despite his claims, though, he did take time to praise Drake - saying:
“When Drake did 'Started From The Bottom' it was a totally different sound and Drake told me, he said, 'I had to really battle with myself. I want to be the first to change'. That's when I knew he was going to be around for a long time.”
