About
One in a Million is the second studio album by American R&B singer Aaliyah, released by Blackground Records and Atlantic Records on August 27, 1996. Missy Elliott and Timbaland wrote and produced the bulk of the album. Other producers included Rodney Jerkins, Jermaine Dupri, and Kay Gee. The album was executive produced by Barry Hankerson and Jomo Hankerson. Selling over two million copies in the United States and 8 million copies worldwide within a few months, the album was Aaliyah's breakout album and a major milestone in the careers of Missy Elliott and Timbaland. It produced six singles, "If Your Girl Only Knew", "One in a Million", "Got to Give It Up", "4 Page Letter", "Hot Like Fire", and "The One I Gave My Heart To". The album was certified 2x Platinum on June 16, 1997. It is currently out of print in the United States; however, copies of the 2006 reissues (which was released in Germany), can possibly be found in some stores as an import, or can easily be imported upon request.
