She was only 17??? Wow. I was 9yo at the time when this song came out. I looked up to her so much when i was kid. I still miss her and wish she was still here. I wonder what her career would’ve been like and what she would be like now if she was still alive. Because i know she also was doing some acting like right before she passed away as well.
@@finefeatheredfriend9240 I loved Aaliyah.. but this isn't completely true. Janet is the considered the "blueprint" for young female performers (especially if they were black). Aaliyah modeled herself after Janet Jackson which is the reason I loved her. Janet doesn't get the respect she deserves for how many young girls during that generation (including myself that she influenced). Like alot of people...the Jacksons were an an influence. It's also how Janet's oldest nephew was able to get in this video. He's the one driving the motorcycle.
@@lisacox5405 For my generation of the time, Aaliyah popularized that swoop bang hairstyle. And just her whole aesthetic was a vibe back then so much that any light skin girl with straightened hair was compared to her. That’s what I meant by her being an original and influencer particularly in black pop culture.
This song changed the sound of R&B💯 Aaliyah took a chance on a then relatively unknown Timbaland & Missy Elliott and their careers took off after this. Everyone wanted/still wants this sound. Everyone from JayZ, Normani & Cardi B, Nipsey Hussel, etc.. have sampled this song. However, some radio stations wouldn't play this song because of the crickets and the fact that this song didn't sound like anything back then because its so ahead of its time (1996). It had a completely fresh sound. Atlantic records wanted to remove the crickets from the background but they hid the masters so they couldn't😂 The guy throughout the video is "Pony" singer, Ginuwine. The guy on the motorcycle in the end is Mike Jackson's nephew. Keep reacting to Aaliyah 🔥 RIP
You guys described Aaliyah perfectly. "Cool". She was the girl every guy wanted to be with and every girl wanted to hang with. She was cool without trying. She was already a mega star at the time of her death but I am remised to think what R&B and Hollywood would be like if she were still alive. Angel.
Monica week?!?! 1. Angel of Mine 2. So Gone 3. For You I Will 4. Why I Love You So Much 5. Love All Over Me Aaliyah, Brandy, and Monica came out around the same time. Complete the trinity PLEEEEEASE!
I hope this means a Missy week is coming because this sound was all Missy and Tim... 1. Hot Boys 2. Minute Man 3. She's a B*tch 4. Beep Me 911 5. The Rain
Yeah she filmed some but not all of her scenes prior but unfortunately the role was recasted to Nona Gaye. You can see glimpses of scenes they were filming in the special features of the DVD. Matrix Reloaded I believe
I think this one is coming soon. Don’t quote me, but I’m pretty sure they teased it a few videos ago when sharing that they’d already recorded the next 5 weeks. So, hang in there! 😊
Why am I screaming?!?!?!😂 Oh, I miss Babygirl!🤦🏾♀️😭 I can't believe she's been gone from the physical world longer than she was here. Ugh! Anyhoo, time to mop these tears away & get ready to go down memory lane with u boys. Let's go Aaliyah! Also hopefully my fave video 'Are You That Somebody' makes the list.🤞🏾💃🏾🎤💽📻
Aaliyah week finally! Yas! ❤ Can we please finally get a Lil Kim week... 5. Not Tonight (Ladies Night) 4. No Matter What They Say 3. The Jumpoff 2. Crush On You 1. How Many Licks?
Yes! One of my favorite videos from her along with We Need A Resolution. And the man you see in the security camera footage is Ginuwine, another R&B icon.
This song I appreciate more when I got older. This song is a masterpiece, genius musically melodically lyrically, just so pleasing to to ear, her voice with stacatic beat
The guy who has Aaliyah tatted on his arm is Ginuwine he's a big time artist from the 90s/00s yall should do his song Pony, Differences, In those Jeans, So anxious, ain't none of your friends business, Same ol G
The guy in the TV before it gets to the all white scene is named Ginuwine and he is a great singer as well. You guys should do a week with him. Him and her were friends with missy and timberland. His top 5 would be: None of your friends business, differences, So anxious, in those jeans, & pony
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..
Those are crickets, the radio station back then didn’t approve of the use of crickets and it turned out to be a sensation!! And the man you see is Genuine the singer!!!
It's ironic you made a "Matrix" reference...she was filming "The Matrix Reloaded" as the character Zee when she passed away. They replaced her with actress Nona Gaye.
Oh wow thank you guys Aaliyah is my favorite she’s the best the r&b princess 👑 she inspired me so much to pursue my dreams and my career at the age of 10 💗💗💗💗🥹
This was such a new sound when it first came out. Production was avant-garde and everyone was into it. So catchy. The fast/slow beat was such a departure from the standard R&B rhythm. This changed everything in the R&B game. Let's not even get into her style, way of movement and natural charisma. She was THAT GIRL. I miss her so much. 😭
Timberland and Missy Elliot did their thing with this song! 👏🏾 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥yall really need to do a Missy week Hot Boys, Can't stand the rain, sock it to me, she's a b*tch, gossip folks, lose control, get yo freak on, one minute man, work it it's so much to pick from
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.
I grew up listening to aaliyah. So hearing her music brings me back to childhood. This song came out when i was 9yo. And my mom had this song on repeat blaring in the car and at home on the home stereo when it first came out. I miss her so much. I was devastated when i saw she passed back in 2001. RIP to babygirl and R&B princess Aaliyah 🕊️
If your girl only knew, are u that somebody, more than a woman, hot like fire (video remix), try again, we need a resolution, 4 page letter…Aaliyah needs 2 wks tbh
Plz plz plz plz plzz Christina Aguilera Week 2 (playlist link): th-cam.com/play/PLcvHCc_c8NZ4sIUDHZ1Jh06Jouny9JHEd.html&si=MKguhbfMMS07zqeT 5. Your Body 4. Candyman 3. Hurt 2. Can't Hold Us Down ft Lil Kim 1. Lady Marmalade ft Mya, Pink, & Lil Kim
It's funny that you guys mention that she looks like a villain with the eye patch because she starred as the head villain in the 2002 movie “Queen of the Damned.” She was “Akasha” the queen of the vampires, which totally fit her cool, mysterious and sultry aesthetic!
"who's this guy?" that's Ginuwine - do a week for him. he's got some bangers and he got some jams! and he can dance his tail off. Janet Jackson has called Aaliyah the most beautiful person she has ever seen!
The princess of R&B. She was a young icon.💕💕
Don’t forget Queen of Urban Pop
@@girl.thatsdorian def the queen of urban pop, gotta be ol skoo fan to know that!

Aaliyah was 17 years old here. She was so young with absolute killer swagger about her ❤

It was a great time to be a music fan.

she wore the eye patch cause people started a rumor about her having a glass eye when in reality she just liked to cover her eye with her hair 😂
She was actually supposed to star in the Matrix guys, rest up to my favorite artist of all time. I was crushed when she passed, I was 6 years old 😢
Yayyyyy!
"who's this guy?" that's Ginuwine - do a week for him. he's got some bangers and he got some jams! and he can dance his tail off. Janet Jackson has called Aaliyah the most beautiful person she has ever seen!
