#aaliyah #Musicvideo #ReactionVideo
It seems like everybody forgets about If Your Girl Only Knew. That song is 🔥🔥🔥
Yaaassss 🔥🔥🔥
The bassline alone makes it top 5.
Yes! It’s one of my top 3 singles of her’s (the others being We Need A Resolution and One In A Million).
I have a home karaoke set up, and by now I know my neighbors must be sick of this song bc I'm singing that shit as soon as I'm a few beers in🤣
@@nataki8776 😂😂😂
One of the most played videos on MTV in 1998. Aaliyah's 1st Grammy & VMA nomination. From the Dr. Dolittle soundtrack. Lol Aaliyah was cautious of that bird🤣 Her hair was held together by actual nuts (as in nuts & bolts)🔥 This was her first time wearing a skirt/dress in a video. They had to beg her to do it for the flamenco choreo. Aaliyah (vocals), Timbaland (producer), & Static Major (writer) made this song in just 4 HOURS. From 4-8am & had to be turned in by 10am. They heard it on the radio at like 11am🔥 This was shot in the same cave they filmed Batman in.
I just want to add: They did the song RIGHT after a performance. They literally went to the studio after getting off the stage. Then worked until 10am with a deadline at 11am. Insane.
Her nickname was baby girl so Tim used the baby sample for that reason. Also Aaliyah, Timbaland, Ginuwine and Missy Elliot had a very strong music relationship and friendship. Tim
And Missy produced her biggest album which was One In A Million. Nice reaction fellas.
Don't forget Static Major :)
The only song Missy has ever produced for Aaliyah (at least that the public has heard) was “Where Could He Be”. Tim produced (most of) One In A Million (Jermaine Dupri, Guy Roche, Rodney Jerkins, and Vincent Herbert, among others, also produced songs on the album). Missy wrote.
@@JessieDubois8 that’s just not true I’m sorry. Missy and Timbaland both produced that album and literally both have talked about their producing contributions. Tim and Missy were a producing team at the time. It was also acknowledged by Aaliyah herself in numerous interviews.
@@antonyware Look at the credits on the album, on spotify/itunes, on ascap, etc. Missy wrote the lyrics, Tim wrote the music (arrangement) and produced. It was only after Missy was producing for big artists that they were being called a production duo. But she was never credited with producing ANYTHING by Aaliyah. She was only credited as a songwriter for the songs she worked on for Aaliyah.
“Where Could He Be” is the only song that was produced by Missy, and even THAT is an assumption because it was never officially released by Blackground, so the songwriting and production credits were never officially released.
Pretty sure that baby sample is in a Prince song! I can't remember which one though.
Aaliyah's videos were always unique...she was so beautiful and creative.
TLC week please‼️
(1) No Scrubs
(2) Waterfalls
(3) Creep
(4) Unpretty
(5) Red Light Special
Add one from the first album to and this is solid!
@@tmxgurl I think on week 2 is better
Perfect
Toni Braxton Week 1!
#5. He Wasn’t Man Enough
#4. Breathe Again
#3. You’re Makin’ Me High
#2. Just Be A Man About It
#1. Unbreak My Heart
Please do Toni Braxton. She is one of the best selling female artists of all time, has several Grammys and other awards, was one of the leading acts of the 90s, and she is known for her numerous hits and her very distinct and unique voice, trust me you guys would love it. I couldn’t fit all of her hits in this list, but I think these may be some of her best and most important songs. A week dedicated to this legend would be amazing.
U are so on point with this. 😊 Toni is my favorite 💜🙏🏽
I agree with this. Love me some Toni.
Glad u got many likes. I think they'll finally listen to u.
yessss
Damn! Can it be Top 6??? I need How Many Ways too!!!! Love that song and the video is too cute❤️
Aaliyah Week 2
5) Back and Forth
4) If Your Girl Only Knew
3) Miss You
2) 4 Page Letter
1) We Need a Resolution
4 page letter will for ever be a masterpiece in my heart. ❤
Good list food list 😢😮😊
They still need to hear her do a ballad because they haven’t heard that sound of her voice. How Could The One I Gave My Heart To or Journey To The Past!
Oh yes PLEASE
Justice for We Need A Resolution. Im sure Rock The Boat is #1, and while the video is cute, I mean.... WNAR is WAY better. Ugh, I would have liked to see them react to the snakes.
Agreed. Maybe we'll be surprised.
WNAR is criminally slept on!❤
I love that song so much!!!
My vote here👍🏽
1 of them is probably number 1. Also justice for hot like fire (video remix), if your girl only knew, 4 page letter, back in one piece. If non of those are number 1, definitely a week week 2 top 5 of Aaliyah
Keyshia Cole week:
- Let It Go
- I Remember
- Love
- Last Night
- I Should've Cheated
I think the people in the comments so PRESSSSED about Rock The Boat being #1 need to chill. There’s always Aaliyah week 2. Start requesting week 2 instead of complaining. Rock The Boat IS that girl and she deserves #1. 💅💅
honestly they not really gonna have a crazy reaction to any of aaliyah's songs so whats the big deal.
I love Aaliyah but I never liked rock the boat. I also don’t care that it’s number 1. Everyone’s taste isn’t going to be the same.
@@carriel9954Well the facts are that Rock The Boat is more loved among her fans even if I personally love We Need A Resolution more so it makes sense why it's number 1.
I hope If you Girl Only Knew is #1 ...my fav video
Well said 😂
Hearing men tryna describe women's jewelry/ clothing is hilarious 😭😭😭 it's a belly chain guys 🤣
It’s from the Doctor Doolittle soundtrack, hence the animals. Beat by Timbaland. And, this is the first time we got to see Aaliyah in a more mature outfit. The dancing at the end in the flamenco style. Fatima Robinson choreographed this sequence and made Aaliyah wear that, Fatima can be seen on the right of the singer.
Timbaland and Missy Elliot were instrumental finding Aaliyah’s sound during her second album. It was that VA sound. And yes they were a crew along with Ginuwine, Magoo & some other artists. They were devastated upon her passing.
Didn't someone make an in memory song for her? Like DMX or somebody?
@@tonialston1968 there’s the music video for her song “Miss You” that many late 90’s artists lip synched too and paid tribute to her. And there’s a track that Missy had on her album that she dedicated to Lisa “Left Eye”, Aaliyah and Jam Master Jay. It’s called “Can You Hear Me) feat TLC.
Hi Joe and Mike! Great reaction once again. Can we please have a Mary J. Blige week? Please!?
1. Just Fine
2. You are Everything
3. Be Happy
4. No Drama
5. Enough Crying
More power to u. I've seen u trying for months. ❤
This week has been amazing so far. Thank you Mike & Joe for listening to us all.
Mary J Blige week is heavily desired
- No More Drama
- Family Affair
- Be Without You
- Enough Cryin,
- One (with U2)
Justice for the “Hot Like Fire” music video!
Yeh they should do a week 2. Cos hot like fire, if your girl only knew, we need a resolution, 4 page letter,…need to be
I second that wholeheartedly!
The baby sample is a nod to the nickname given to her by her dad, “baby-girl.” Timbaland also referred to her as baby-girl in the lyrics to his verse. He said, when Aaliyah heard it on the track, she loved it.
Edit: I also really appreciate Mike’s attention to visual detail considering her makeup/ hair/ outfits. It’s unexpected, yet appreciated.
I know the baby sample freaked out some people but I thought it was so so cool lol. It’s creative and pretty different.
This song was on the radio non-stop during my childhood🙌🏼
Keyshia Cole week request
1- Love
2- Let It Go ft Missy
3- (I Just Want It) To Be Over
4- I Changed My Mind
5- I Should've Cheated
The baby sample is what makes this song so iconic tbh!
They are called Waist Beads 😅
Waist beads are different Aaliyah has on a belly chain
@@mzzthang3912 okay maybe Im looking at it wrong
@@mzzthang3912but can we all start calling them 'hiplaces' from now on?😂 These boys are nuts & I love them for it.
@@nicoleobrien5987 😂😂😂😂 I'm here for it lool
Belly chain
Bro, y'all gotta get more legends on the channel frfr. I have a few in mind but for right now, you definitely should give the Queen of Hip Hop & Soul, Mary J. Blige her flowers. So I have some songs/videos you should check out in particular. All That I Can Say, Deep Inside, No More Drama, Enough Cryin, Take Me As I Am, The One, We Got Hood Love, Someone To Love Me, Mr Wrong, Right Now, Whole Damn Year, Come See About Me. All dope frfr..
I laughed way too hard for 'hiplace' 😂😂
They're natural comedians where they don't even have to think to come up with something funny.
Not Mike saying he looks "twinky". I lost it. 😆
Nah Mike u look fine lol.
The jewelry on her stomach are called waste beads. It’s so crazy how ahead of her time her style was. Soooo many women wear them now. Love your reactions to these classics❤
Belly chain
*waist not waste, lol.
Lmaoooo not “It’s Diaper Time”. 💀
Back and Forth should be number 1 for sure.
Brandy week 2
Right here departed
Wildest Dreams
Who is she to you
Almost doesn’t count
Talk about our love
I second this!!!!!
@WeeklyTop5 lol the jewelry around her stomach is called a belly chain… It’s still popular today!
Mariah rocked it in '97.
THIS song was an anthem when I was a kid. Muscle memory kicks in when I hear it. 😂
One of my favorite videos of Aaliyah ❤ The baby sample isn't weird. It's brilliant 👏🏽 👌🏽 😀
4 Page Letter by Aaliyah is the first and only video to mesmerize me the way it did. 🥰🥰
So, Fun fact: Aaliyah is the person who put Timbaland (and Missy) on the map! Timbaland and Missy were unknown producers/writers, and she took a chance on them after hearing a demo of some song called “Sugar and Spice” or something. She got them to write/produce most of her album One In A Million. They changed the sound of the radio in 1996 when it came out. EVERYONE wanted to work with Tim & Missy and always asked for “The Aaliyah sound”.
Actually Missy was already an artist way before that and after the song she did with Gina Thompson she was offered a deal but she didn’t want to be JUST an artist Mona Scott got her the deal she wanted and that’s when Tim and Aaliyah Ginuwine Nicole Wray and magoo came and they formed a crew!!
Next should be TLC
Fun fact: the baby you hear was aaliyah as a baby and Timbaland used it and made a beat
- the song was recorded for the Dr. Dolittle soundtrack
(there's another version with scenes from a movie on a silver backdrop)
- she was instructed to not look the hawk in the eye, as it might attack
- her choreographer Fatima Robinson pushed her style (heels & dress) for the flamenco scene,
as Aaliyah never done anything like this
- in 1999 Are You That Somebody got a Grammy nomination for the Best Female R&B Vocal Performance
Please do We Need a Resolution next!
Are You that Somebody was many people's introduction to Aaliyah. Perhaps even more so than One in a Million. A huge, top 10 single in support of the hit Dr. Doolittle remake with Eddie Murphy. Flamenco dance coda in the black dress made her a star.
You know what it reminds me of? I don’t know when this stopped being a thing, but in the late 90’s and early 00’s, a lot of movie theaters played music before the trailers would start. And that was the first time I heard this song, in my local theater.
Fatima Roberson is the iconic choreographer and was liyah right hand woMAN. She’s also in this video on the left!
Rock the Boat gottttta be #1 .. she passed shortly after the production wrapped, that final day of filming
Mike & Joe. Joe & Mike. Yall made me sooooooo damn happy this week! Thank you!
- Sincerely, The Biggest WT5 Stan in History.
All of her songs captured the essence of the 90s😭
You are so in love with fashion you should start trying everything you want to! We only live once chile
If social media was a thing summer '98 this would be all over IG and Tik Toc!!! And she would have gotten so many awards. Man what a time to be alive. RIP babygirl we miss you. 😘
Can you do ''We Need A Resolution'' in #1 ? I think it will be ''Rock The Boat'' idk why lol
TLC request. Please 🙂
Baby baby baby
Creep
Red light special
Waterfalls
No scrubs
I love the format of this channel. Watch a different video from the same artist for each day of the work week.
lol loved hiplace but they're called belly chains. :)
Aaliyah was one of Timbaland and Missy Elliott’s “muses”. So they produced a ton of her music
Ahh I love her so much. I grew up all through her career. I was the same age as her. From her first single, I related to her. Being a tomboy. Singing. Loving to dance. I remember this being one of the first times she really started getting into her feminine side. Idk but I just remember being surprised at the last dance scene when she’s in a dress and such.
Yall are so cute @6:48 😆
Not one video goes by without them doing least something cute or saying something funny. 😂
This is from the Dr Dolittle (1998) soundtrack
The baby sound is a sample from Prince. Peaceful rest to both of them.
Timbaland also did one in a million that you reacted to at #5. Great beat as well. A lot of people say it’s one of the best r&b beats.
Week 2 suggestions:
#1 We Need a Resolution
#2 4 Page Letter
#3 Hot Like Fire
#4 The One I Gave My Heart To
#5 If Your Girl Only Knew
Hi there, I wore one at the time, It's called a belly chain. Very basic.
Man Rock the Boat shouldn’t be number one just because it was her last video. Her most iconic look is in We Need a Resolution music video
Yes please do we need a resolution for number 1 maybe in Aaliyah week #2
I was actually expecting Try again on number 1
Sorry but Rock The Boat is #1 material. It deserves its spot.
I was just saying that, RTB video is cute but no.

It doesn’t matter the week, but make sure you react to her “Giving Up” cover. It’ll show you why Whitney Houston said she was Sparkle.

I'm not sure if anyone mentioned it, but this song was on the Dr. Doolittle Soundtrack
What aaliyah was wearing around her abdomen is called either a bellychain or waist beads.
So so happy you did Aaliyah week ❤️❤️❤️ I hope #1 is We Need a Resolution or 4 Page Letter but have a feeling it’s going to be Rock the Boat. If it is Rock the Boat, please please please do Aaliyah Week 2 soon 🙏🏽
1. We Need a Resolution

3. If Your Girl Only Knew
4. At Your Best (You Are Love)
5. Back and Forth
This song was from the movie Dr. Dolittle soundtrack. The movie is about a veterinarian who discovers he has the ability to talk to animals hence why Aaliyah has the hawk in the video and the song subject matter.
