While Hankerson took the estate’s first statement on Twitter -- that it had begun communicating with labels about releasing the music -- as a sign of a new willingness to engage, he has not personally spoken to his sister about the matter. Instead, Blackground and the estate have communicated through representatives. “I’m prayerful that she supports what we’re doing, but at the end of the day we’ll all find out [whether she supports the deal] probably at the same time,” says Hankerson.

Interviews with Missy Elliott and Timbaland were canceled, and the status of Timbaland’s work on the new Aaliyah recordings is currently unclear.
