Aaliyah – Miss You

Six years ago today, Aaliyah Dana Haughton, Anthony Dodd, Eric Foreman, Scott Gallin, Keeth Wallace, Gina Smith, Douglas Kratz, Christopher Maldonado, and Luis Morales died tragically in a plane crash that shocked everyone. At the time of the tragic accident, Aaliyah had just released her 3rd album, Aaliyah and was at the top of her career. I can’t remember anyone who would say that they didn’t like her or anyone that’s met her who didn’t say she had a beautiful spirit and personality. So today, CL remembers the beautiful actress, dancer, and singer by posting some of your favorite Aaliyah tracks and videos. Rest in peace, Babygirl.

Loosing Aaliyah was so sad she was such a beautiful person on the inside and outside, i never met her but listening to her music all these years made me feel like i knew her, things happen for a reason but it feels like it was not her time yet, she was about to take her career to the next level, so sad we lost another one R.I.P Baby Girl.

    I just saw the first video, and have not even listen to any songs yet or watched any videos, but it brought the memories flooding back… the “flamenco” scene at the end priceless.

    thank you Angel La, Brian and Tianna.

    You are what a true edutainment blog site should be.

    Thanks again for being my go to destination when I log on……..

    I hope Aaliyah found peace. GOD bless her family and help them through this difficult period.

  34. dctrinigyal

    RIP OUR BEAUTIFUL ANGEL… I KNOW YOU IN HEAVEN PUTTING ON A SHOW. I LOVE YOU AALIYAH…MUAH

  35. I miss Aaliyah….loved her music and personality.
    thanks CL.

  36. La Shun

    That was my girl! My sis called me at around midnight in August ’01 because she saw the story of Aaliyah’s death on Headline News. I seriously thought she was joking. That was a shocker! ‘One in a Million’ was definately my jam, back in the day. Rest in Peace!

  37. southernmello

    R.I.P beautiful angel….we miss u

  38. sxcighanamamii

    aaliyah’s music used to AND still does get the party going.
    i love hearing Back & Forth and reminscing on the 90s and
    her big affect on culture. The hairstyles to her spirit. She was
    herself and always taught to be yourself.

  39. JR

    To the queen..we miss you…we love you…rest in peace.

  40. Brian made valid point…I don’t remember anyone disliking Aaliyah. Everyone was always happy for her success and was always excited about her growth as a artist. Her spirit seemed very positive and loving….says ALOT for someone that alot of people didn’t know. The female artists now will never compare to Aaliyah, but it was a different time then. There will never be another like her…no matter how hard they try. And no one compares in spirit and talent…she was loved by many…never hated on and her sweetness never seemed fake like a certain singers out now.

    MUCH LOVE TO HER FAMILY RIP Baby Girl

  41. I love her songs, I truly miss her & her beautiful songs…

    I care for you and Heartbroken were also my jams…

    R.I.P Liyah’ :(

  42. coolierasta

    She is still and probably will always be my favourite r&b artist. At her best she was love!
    R.I.P babygurl!!

  43. Erica

    Wow, When i first hear about her death i was thinking it can’t be real. We all miss her and i know she is in a better place. There will never be another like her.

  44. John

    I miss Aaliyah. She always made my favorite songs. I still play her music every once in awhile.

  45. yes, CL thanx for the post sometimes you just need a reminder of what real artist/music was she will always be rememberd as both.

  46. R.I.P. Aaliyah!
    My favorites are One in a Million & Miss You. Nice tribute Brian.

  47. unique

    ccx

  48. The Cheerleader 22

    I miss you and love you Aaliyah.

  49. BigDaddyReg

    She will be missed, I think the video rock the boat said it all. She looked like a angel is the water. I wont forget that day, it was tragic and very sad, but God only takes the good ones, RIP

  50. I’m glad you did a post for Babygirl Brian! This was really nice.

    She was and still is my favorite singer and will always be one of my top idols. It doesn’t seem like it’s been 6 years since she departed from this earth. I can’t imagine how the Haughton’s are doing on this day…it must be really painful for not only them, but the others who lost loved ones on the Cessna. Everyone, today if you can please go visit aaliyah.com and give your thoughts and things. There are some really good things on there today, including a beautiful poem by Aaliyah’s brother, Rashad intitled “Forever Young”. But I must go now, because I could write a book about today. R.I.P Aaliyah and all others whose lives were taken on this day 6 years ago!! Forever in our hearts!

  51. Mrs. AKA

    She was unlike any other artist. Her personality was genuine. She never hid from her fans. She spoke with such eloquence and she alsways kept it real. RIP My Friend!!!

  52. NANi

    *R.I.P* BABYGiRL STiLL CAN’T BELiEVE THAT YOU’RE GONE…YOU WiLL ALWAYS BE ONE iN A MiLLiON!

  54. Da Adept

    R.I.P Baby Girl
    xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

  55. Rita

    RIP Aaliyah,. She was a big inspiration to a lot of these young female r&b artists today but none of them can live up to what she was. Her songs, beauty, and spirit will continue to live on for a long time

  56. kmniles

    LOL…I see the CL editors edited my other post about not having anything Aaliyah related in the John Singleton/Mike Vick thread….

    Thank you so much for giving this woman some love. I know people think us Aaliyah fans are obsessed with her but you must realize that she was part of the “original blueprint” for futuristic R&B. Her success not only brought two upstarts (Tim & Missy)into an already crowded marketplace of producers, but helped laid the foundation for the current versions of some of the most popular pop acts out at the moment (Justin Timberlake, Nelly Furtado). When you see all these poptarts coming out with albums, you cannot deny you see a lil bit of /.\ in them.

    Thank you /.\ for your contribution to music, and thanks to her family who’s shared some of their most intimate and private moments over the past six years. I know it hasn’t been easy for them, but hopefully we’ve helped them to cope with their loss as they have helped the world deal with her absence in today’s music. When I blow out the candle tonight the smoke that rises up to the heavens is a personal message of love from one of your many adoring fans to you.

    Thanks CL…you’re the BEST!
