"Don't Know What to Tell Ya" is a song by American singer Aaliyah. It was initially written by Static Major and Timbaland for the singer's third studio album Aaliyah (2001). While it failed to make the final cut, it was eventually included on the singer's first posthumous compilation album, I Care 4 U (2002).

Released in mid-2003, the song was the second and final single from I Care 4 U in the European and Asian markets. In North America and Asia, the final single off the album was "Come Over".

Composition

"Don't Know What to Tell Ya" has a "noir-funk feel that evokes Blade Runner" and the song contains a sample from the song "Batwannis Beek" performed by Algerian singer Warda Al-Jazairia.[2] [3] [4] On the song Aaliyah is telling a story about a failing relationship.[5]

Critical Reception

Arion Berger from Rolling Stone praised Aaliyah's vocals on the song saying, "Her sweet, strong voice whips around the ambivalence in Don't Know What to Tell Ya and melts the ends off the lines in the title song."[6]
