Aaliyah

Queen of Urban Pop 👑 Princess of R&B🕊️

[잼 @p1anethaobin]

When she started doing movies while promoting music you could really tell but she never complained. She greeted fans on her most exhausting days and always remained grateful. We were so lucky to have her 🥺

ESSENCE will honor Aaliyah at their ESSENCE Festival Sunday (July 5th) 🥹

the only black artist on the list, this girl was a teenager and one of the biggest stars of her time 🤧

Aaliyah’s voice is one of one. Her tone, her phrasing, inflections, agility.

She was so gifted.

[Aaliyah @ExtraFly4U]

Her performance outfits ate this era. I know the tour fits would’ve devoured!

[Young Nation /•\ @Aaliyah_Fanatic]

the way she moves is so hypnotizing. tore the whole mf set!

[Thee Mystic Nomad🫶🏾 @IAmKingScoota_]

Brandy came out with I wanna be down , have you ever, full moon

Aaliyah had back & fourth , one In a million, at your best

Monica had don’t take it personal, why I love you so much l, for you I will

Mya had it’s all about me , case of the ex, my love is like who.

These new girls music isn’t all that. Like it’s okay but no instant classics.

At point the concept of making songs under 2 mins was for replay value in streaming. But it’s very hard to connect with a song in a min, yes I may like it but I’m more than likely not gonna play it again because it lacks a true journey. It’s basically just a hook and a verse.

[Young Nation /•\ @Aaliyah_Fanatic]

both on the side of the bed but only one of them was getting play 😭

[Aaliyah @ExtraFly4U]

She ate this role up. She would’ve devoured the soundtrack omggggg

[Young Nation /•\ @Aaliyah_Fanatic]

@bmm972 @G4LMUSIC11AK @aaliyahs_flower @DeeMarccThoo @cowboy_hive We dont leave it in lies.

Timbaland worked with both aaliyah and ginuwine but Aaliyah was the one doing the experimental left field beats.

And Ginuwine split from tim in 2002 and couldnt replicate that timbo sound. Aaliyah did it and even elevated it.

[☥ @DEATHOFAPLAYA]

@perlaspuss @ChloeGarden_ how am i reducing her? it’s a known fact that Aaliyah gave Timbaland & Missy a platform and they’ve said that many times. She gave them a chance and wanted an experimental sound and they all collaborated to create the popular mysterious R&B sound from OIAM. like what.

[Big Bint @mabinti6]

@Laserz2025 U Got Nerve, I Can Be, What If were sonically more innovative and edgy than the Timbaland stuff

[NUMBER 40?! @Laserz2025]

Self titled barely had timbaland on there and Aaliyah retained that same sound and even elevated it lmao.

Self titled is one of the most critically acclaimed r&b albums of the 2000’s.

[Aaliyah @ExtraFly4U]

She doesn’t have a bad music video . Not one.

[AALIYAH LEGION @AaliyahLegion]

Aaliyah absolutely floated on “Come Back In One Piece” 😩
