Riff: Aaliyah – “We Need a Resolution”

Jun 18, 2013

Did you sleep on the wrong side?/I’m catching a bad vibe/And it’s contagious, What’s the latest?

from We Need A Resolution lyrics by Aaliyah

Still sounding as eerily futuristic as it did in 2001, this almighty passive-aggressive battle of the sexes sees Aaliyah tries in vain to discover why a detached Timbaland came rolling in at four in the morning. His signature ‘freaky freaky’ ad-lib is the most coherent answer she gets; [LISTEN].
