Aaliyah's Bio
Her first LP, Age Ain't Nothing But A Number, went PLATINUM (closer to 2X Platinum) and then her second LP, One In A Million, went 2X PLATINUM (Closer to 3X Platinum if ya asked me). Can ya guess who it is? It's A-A-L-I-Y-A-H! Aaliyah! She started out in the music scene with her 1st HIT single "Back and Forth" and then switching it up to "At Your Best (You Are Love)," an Isley Brothers remake. She got all the record company executives askin' who is that hot, new, young artist? So since they knew that they couldn't have her on their label, they went to launch some new, fresh, female artists of their own like Brandy and Monica for example. But still...none of them can compare to the talented, Aaliyah.
R.Kelly produced all the tracks on her first album that were all original, except for "At Your Best (You Are Love)." Rumors began flying all over the music seen that there was an alledged marriage between young Aaliyah who was 15 (a minor) at the time, and R.Kelly who was I think 27 at the time. BUT ALL OF THOSE RUMORS ARE FALSE. Aaliyah responds to poeple asking questions about her being married to R.Kelly by saying,"I am not married." She hates being asked questions about him too.
Then...her second LP came out with HIT singles like,"If Your Girl Only Knew,"One In A Million," and "4 Page Letter" just to name a few. Timbaland produced 7 tracks on the album which were also the ones I just named. That year has been quite a big year for her with the success of the album and everything. Another rumor fled up during that time that her and g (Ginuwine) were dating. No ladies, this ain't true. He said that they are just good buddies. Besides, G knows who she likes because she told him. I wonder who it is...hhhmmmmmm....
Now last summer she got majorly recognized with the release of "Are You That Somebody" which was the most played song all over the world during the summer!!! Now you can't tell me that that song didn't make you just wanna get up and dance along with the beat. Everybody is now waiting like CRAZY for her 3rd album which she said will be in stores late spring, early summer. I can't wait 'cause I know that this album will be wayyyyy better than her 1st and 2nd. We'll just have to wait and see.....
