    IT’S STILL CRAZY THAT IT’S BEEN ALMOST A DECADE. I STILL REMEMBER WHEN IT WAS THE FIRST YEAR. I THINK WE AS MUSIC LOVERS AND FANS COULD DO ALOT BETTER WITH THE “TRIBUTES” AND I USE THAT TERM LOOSELY. SHE HAD NATURAL BEAUTY AND NATURAL TALENT AND LET THE SEXY JUST COME NATURALLY. NOTHING ABOUT THIS ANGEL WAS FORCED LIKE IT IS NOW IN THE INDUSTRY. SHE WAS REAL MUSIC, REAL R&B, AND REAL TALENT. I THINK THAT IF PEOPLE GO BACK THEY’LL SEE THAT AALIYAH, MONICA, AND BRANDY PRETTY MUCH RAN IT BACK IN THE DAY. SHE ALWAYS HAD HER OWN LANE IN MY EYES. HER LAST ALBUM WAS SO AHEAD OF IT’S TIME AND THE VIDEOS FROM IT ARE STILL BEING RECREATED TODAY IF YOU LOOK AT LADY GAGA, RIHANNA, AND BEYONCE. YEAH THOSE ARE THE BIGGEST NAMES OF TODAY BUT JUST THINK OF HOW AALIYAH HAD TO DO NOTHING TO GET TO WHERE THEY ARE BUT BE HERSELF. IMAGINE THE GAME TODAY IF SHE WAS STILL HERE….HALF OF THESE GIRLS WOULDN’T BE KNOWN. BY THE WAY CIARA IS NOT THE NEXT AALIYAH BECAUSE AALIYAH COULD SING. CIARA CAN DO A LITTLE SOMETHING BUT SHE’S A DANCER AND PERFORMER. SHE’S THE NEXT JANET. REST IN PEACE AALIYAH. YOU WILL ALWAYS LIVE ON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    9 years..it just doesn’t seem like it’s been that long. I always get depressed when I see her MTV: Diary episode. She’s still is one of my favorite R&B artists. No one can ever compare to the incomparable Aaliyah Dana Haughton..a beautiful sould indeed =)

    I would have to say my favorite artist EVER…such a sweet and talented woman….She was definitely in a league on her own! No one will ever amount to her…just a true angel! I remember when I first seen the video “Are You That Somebody”…I memorized the dance and used to do it with the video! I love and miss you Aailyah….may she rest in peace!!!

    Thanks CL for this post. I always remember her on this day & its great to see others doing it as well. It’s crazy that it has been 9 years already. I can remember the exact moment I heard about the crash, I could not believe it. Just thinking about how great she would be right now kinda makes me sad. GOD bless her family & loved ones & the fam of the other victims, on this sad day.

  49. AshleeBee

    Oh Aaliyah how I miss you and music. You are truely truely missed :-(

    I am a true fan of Aaliyah, I named my babygirl after her. As I’m sure many other people did. She had such a wonderful spirit about her. And I know if she was around today, she would still be putting out hits. Its still hard or me to watch footage of her.

    R.I.P Aaliyah

  50. strawberry

    RIP TO AALIYAH AND ALSO TO THE OTHERS WHO WERE ON THEPLANE WITH HER.

  51. FusioLA

    RIP…..
    Can’t wait to see the movie.
    They made a good choice with the girl they picked to play her ( sorry Meagan Good, I know you wanted ) looks a lot like here and actually sings and dances also.
    *Angel thanks for the post, noticed that new MELANIE FIONA post now plays on the iPad, please go forward with that format so it’s playable on more device. Thanks!

  52. thrasher

    Dat’ crazy!! I was just watchin her videos yesterday! TRULY LOVE HER!!

  53. CHULO

    Feels like yesterday, Damn, ………………..

  54. Nikki

    I am from the Detroit area and I was a big fan of Aaliyah, but I can remember people in Detroit hating her because of the whole R. Kelly thing and I think a lot of people were just jealous of her beauty and talent, but she will always be my favorite singer, I pray that her family is doing well

  55. STFU

    #7 – STFU!! I KNEW some dumb azz would get on her starting comparisons where there aren’t any. To straighten yo azz out:

    LiLi TOTALLY had help from Missy, Timb and the bulk from Kellz (and then some) – stop it

    CiCi wouldn’t exist if LiLi was around – they’re the same singers and dancers

    BeyBey was doing her THANG with DC and on top of the charts – really stop it

    Riri wouldn’t exist if BeyBey didn’t exist

    RIP to AALIYAH

  56. STFU

    P.S.

    And Gaga wouldn’t exist if Madonna didn’t

    ALL of these artists have nothing to do with Aaliyah

  57. B ~2010~ WE~IN~HERE

    i pronouced her name wrong its pronouce ah-liey-ah
    however i like her then then and now

  58. Classy!

    I miss you so much Babygirl!
