"Drake has suggested that he could be working on a posthumous collaboration with Aaliyah. The rapper and actor has been busy promoting his sophomore album Take Care, released last November.   &amp;quot;I have some great Aaliyah news coming soon,&amp;quot; Drake told Tim Westwood in an interview. &amp;quot;Some special things.&amp;quot; On August 25, 2001, Aaliyah boarded a plane along with members of her record label after she finished filming her &amp;#039;Rock the Boat&amp;#039; music video. The plane crashed shortly after takeoff at The Bahamas. Last month, her former producer hinted that a posthumous album of unreleased material may be out in the future. Drake, however, refused to elaborate when Westwood asked him if his news had anything do with the rumored record. &amp;quot;Just some special things, you know,&amp;quot; Drake teased. &amp;quot;Great things for music, period.&amp;quot; Drake previously wrote a letter to Aaliyah on the ninth anniversary of her death, in which he shared that he was &amp;quot;truly in love&amp;quot; with her.  Back in 2009, he posted on Twitter: &amp;#039;I miss Aaliyah... I hope you hear the words in my music and smile knowing you inspired them all.&amp;quot; &amp;quot;I think more than anything Aaliyah always made music that was never uncomfortable for me to listen to,&amp;quot; he told Westwood. &amp;quot;You know it&amp;#039;s hard for me to ride around to a female singer because at the end of the day, you&amp;#039;re a man, but she always kept it so G with the writing and the melodies. It was something to ride to, especially when it was chopped and crewed. That&amp;#039;s when I used to love Aaliyah the most.&amp;quot; Watch the music video for Drake&amp;#039;s &amp;#039;The Motto&amp;#039; below:      "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
