I want to hear that again!’ We played it for her and she was like, ‘I want to cut this record,’ and we were like ‘Well this is Ginuwine’s record.’ She was like, ‘Wait a minute, back that up. We played her a couple of tracks and that particular track happened to kind of pass by. She wanted to hear some of the records Johnta and I had written at the time. We were in the studio and we were playing Aaliyah records. That was an interesting session because that song was originally written for Ginuwine. In an interview with You Know I Got Soul, Teddy gave an insight into the story behind the track: The song was originally written by Johnta Austin, Ginuwine and Teddy Bishop in 1998, and later recorded by Aaliyah in 1999. Rapper Jay-Z made a tribute to Aaliyah using the “Miss You” instrumental and chorus for its official remix version in Summer 2003. It received a nomination for Best R&B Video at the 2003 MTV Video Music Awards. The music video for the song was directed by Darren Grant and featured tributes by Aaliyah’s friends and collaborators, including DMX, Missy Elliott, and Static Major. On the US Billboard charts, the song peaked on top of the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart and reached number three on the Hot 100, becoming Aaliyah’s highest-charting single after her 2000 number-one hit “Try Again” featuring Timbaland. The ballad received positive reviews from contemporary music critics and achieved a strong charting throughout Europe and other worldwide regions, reaching the top twenty in Belgium, Canada, Denmark, Germany, the Netherlands, and Switzerland. Instead, it was later included on the posthumously released compilation album, I Care 4 U (2002), serving as its leading single during the last quarter of 2002. Written by Johnta Austin, Ginuwine and Teddy Bishop in 1998 and initially recorded in the fall of 1999 for her self-titled third studio album (2001), the track remained unreleased. “Miss You” is a song by American recording artist Aaliyah.
