Yes, Aaliyah’s impact is something serious. She only had seven years in the spotlight, yet her influence is still unmatched. That’s legendary.!! Miss my gurll
Has @MissyElliott ever said why “Where Could He Be?” with her & Tweet never got officially released and when it was recorded?
I would love to know the backstory. I assume it was recorded for the Aaliyah self-titled album.
This song could drop today and be a hit.

“Words alone will never come close to describing what this beautiful and sacred moment meant to me. Growing up, Aaliyah completely shaped my perception of music, grace, style, and performance. So much of the blueprint she left behind is woven into my own artistry. To stand on that stage and honor her is a moment that will forever echo in my heart. Aaliyah, your spirit continues to transcend through generations, and your legacy is truly untouchable. I hope we made you proud baby girl 🕊️🤍”

Today, we celebrate 25 years of Aaliyah, the self-titled album that helped shape the future of R&B.
A quarter-century later, the sound is still ahead of its time, the influence is everywhere & we are 100% still rocking the boat.
