The first single from the album was intended to be "Loose Rap", with a dance-oriented video to accompany. However, in the last week before picking songs, Timbaland started to work on material for the project. With Timbaland involved, the team decided the first single should be a Timbaland record and "We Need a Resolution" was released as the lead single.

The sixth track, titled "I Care 4 U", was initially recorded in 1996 for the album One in a Million, but had not been completed in time for mastering. Aaliyah approached Trent Reznor to produce a song for the album.

Famous quotes containing the word content:

    For believe me!—the secret to harvesting the greatest abundance and the greatest enjoyment from existence is this—living dangerously! Build your cities on the slopes of Vesuvius! Send your ships into uncharted seas! Live at war with your peers and yourselves! Be robbers and conquerors, so long as you cannot be rulers and possessors, you knowing ones! The time will soon be past when you could be content to live hidden in the forests like timid deer.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    In America the taint of sectarianism lies broad upon the land. Not content with acknowledging the supremacy as the Diety, and with erecting temples in his honor, where all can bow down with reverence, the pride and vanity of human reason enter into and pollute our worship, and the houses that should be of God and for God, alone, where he is to be honored with submissive faith, are too often merely schools of metaphysical and useless distinctions. The nation is sectarian, rather than Christian.
    James Fenimore Cooper (1789–1851)

    Societies have always been shaped more by the nature of the media by which men communicate than by the content of the communication.
    Marshall McLuhan (1911–1980)
