Are You That Somebody?
"Are You That Somebody?" is a Grammy nominated single performed by American singer Aaliyah, recorded for the ''Dr. Dolittle'' soundtrack. The song was written and composed by Static Major, who also sang backing vocals, and Timbaland, who, in addition to writing the song, produced and performed a guest rap for it. The song was sent to U.S. Pop radio stations on September 29, 1998 (see 1998 in music). The song samples the sound of a baby cooing from Perrey and Kingsley's 1966 hit "Countdown at 6" and D. Train's 1982 dance classic "You're the One for Me".
The song was listed 387th on ''The 500 Greatest Songs Since You Were Born'', a list of songs compiled by ''Blender'' magazine.〔(The 500 Greatest Songs Since You Were Born: 351–400 )〕 It was also ranked 18th on ''Spin'' magazine's Top 20 Singles of the 90's, and 5th on ''The Village Voice'''s 1998 Pazz & Jop critics' poll. Pitchfork Media included the song at number 8 on their ''Top 200 Tracks of the 90s''.〔(Pitchfork Top 200 Tracks of the 90s )〕 Slant Magazine ranked the song at number 19 on their 100 best singles of the 1990s list. 〔http://www.slantmagazine.com/features/article/best-singles-of-the-1990s/P17〕 This song earned Aaliyah a Grammy Award nomination for Best Female R&B Vocal Performance.
==Writing and recording==
According to a Static Major article in ''Vibe'' magazine, when he first presented the song to Aaliyah, she initially showed disdain for it.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.songfacts.com/detail.php?id=600 )〕 However, she eventually agreed to record it. In a behind the scenes video featuring Timbaland, he reveals that the record was recorded in a couple of hours after a show and that the record almost didn't happen.〔http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5AJR6R-drCI〕 Many of the unusual beats and loops used on the song were cut at the now defunct Hit Factory in New York City by Timbaland, NYLA and Danger Jay.
