Timbaland will be gifting timelines with new tunes this Christmas. The Grammy-winning producer and Empire‘s resident beat smith announced his Kings Stay Kings mixtape, featuring a slew of note-worthy collaborators.
The 16-track mixtape will feature collaborations with Mila J (“Get No Betta”), Young Thug (“Didn’t Do It”), Blaze, Rich Homie Quan (“Servin’) and — wait for it — Aaliyah. According to a press release, there will be an unheard track from the late songstress, who teamed with Timbaland for some of her biggest hits including “Are You That Somebody?” and “Try Again.”
