Rejoice Aaliyah fans! A new track from the late R&B songstress titled "Shakin" came out on Christmas as part of Timbaland's mixtape "King Stays King". "Aaliyah.. This is for you baby," so Timbaland tweeted along with a link to the mixtape.
Produced by Timbaland, the track boasts Aaliyah's lilting and laid-back vocals. It also features Timbaland himself and emcee Strado. The song marks another collaboration by Aaliyah and Timbaland who had worked together on "Try Again", "Are You That Somebody?" and "I Am Music".
Aaliyah.. This is for you baby.
