NiNi Causes MAJOR Controversy With A Family On New Song.......

NiNi must be a huge fan of controversy, we say that because she's always in it, in fact she said once in an interview "my middle name is controversy" Well today she is involved in her middle name once again. Not too long after this lawsuit thing popped all over the Internet, a song dropped by NiNi Ft KeKe Palmer called "Goin Down" It has a similar Vibe to Young Joc's song of the same name and in one line she says "Its goin down when I see ya, goin down when I meet ya, goin down like Aaliyah" And right after she says that, some swear they hear a "BOOM" in the background, although many say that they don't hear it. Aaliyah was tragically killed in 2001 after her plane crashed shortly after takeoff while she was coming from Brazil finishing her last video which was "Rock The Boat" The first thing that witnesses reported was seeing her plane "Going Down" from the front before crashing into a ditch and semi exploding. Aaliyah and 20 others died on impact with Aaliyah suffering severe head trauma and numerous broken bones. The line in the song has been taken extremely to the head by members of Aaliyah's family who say that NiNi has showed nothing but disrespect just to get a line to rhyme and it was no reason to add her name especially in that kind of way in her song. They say that they have no problem with people putting her name in songs, many people have already did it,  but they say that the way NiNi did it was disrespectful to her memory. They legally cant do anything about it like sue her but they are asking for an apology from her since they feel it was out of line and unnecessary. Furthermore, the family says that not only did the line offend them, but in certain parts of the song, her voice is sampled in a chopped and screwed voice which makes it seems like maybe she is subliminally dissing her. Mostly her family is the loud talkers in this, fans, including Aaliyah's fans do not feel that NiNi did anything wrong or that she meant anything harm by the line. Click here to listen to "Goin Down" by NiNi Ft NiNi and KeKe and Judge for yourself. *UPDATE* NiNi has responded to Aaliyah's family over Insta and she posted a pic of Aaliyah which is her last photo and she captioned it as "My Girl" She posted "I never got the privilege to meet her, we were in two different worlds, when she left, I was only 11 years old, but I have always been a fan of her and I still am, she changed R&B forever and its still many artists who are trying to top what she accomplished and set forth including me, I would never disrespect her. To her family, I apologize for the misunderstanding, I actually was referring to her song "Going Down" and I said her name because that is the name of her song, the same way someone might say for example "I get it popping like NiNi" since "Get It Poppin" is the name of my song. Not once did her tragic accident cross my mind when I wrote the song but I do see where you guys are coming from and I guess I just wasn't thinking all the way how that might sound. Once again I apologize and that wasn't a plane crash sound in the back, I said "What Up Girl" I have no idea how people interpret that as a boom sound. Once again I apologize, I always looked up to her and she is and always will be one of my fav singers Mwah! R.I.P LI-LI 1979-2001" Her family has accepted the apology so no more issues there, just a case of mistaken identity and after listening to the song carefully, we do hear her say "what up girl" in the back but its low and muffled which is why people might've heard a boom noise because if you don't listen close, you just hear noise which sounds like something crashing, its best to listen to it with headphones, then you'll clearly hear the real deal.
