We can never really celebrate enough the legendary talent of Aaliyah. The singer’s life was cut way too short twenty years ago. Her boyfriend, discoverer, groomer and abuser was R. Kelly which seems to make her story even more tragic.

The music of Aaliyah will live on. It certainly should be heard and embraced now more than ever. She was way ahead of her time in so many ways. It’s time to meet or reintroduce yourself to her music and recognize her contribution and talent.

Aaliyah had actually redefined pop, R&B and hip hop in her short time on this earth and created music that swims around in your head, heart and soul in a sublime way. Her music and most videos have been remastered and are available on streaming services.
