Aaliyah

How Aaliyah Music career evolved?

Aaliyah uncle was in the Entertainment industry and was married to Gladys knight.This was clearly a chance for Aaliyah to use her Uncle Barry Hankerson connections to become successful.She was going to auditions with Gladys knight she didn’t become successful .However , when she was just 10 yeas old she appeared on Star search a Singing show.Aaliyah was signed to Blackgound records at the age of 12 years old.Her uncle was the one that actually got her the deal.It’s interesting to see how much connections can help you out.Aaliyah didn’t have to grind to get in does doors.And that just shows that this was something that she is destined to do.

Hankerson introduced R kelly to Aaliyah. He wss the one producing and writing Aaliyah album.During does times a man working with a young girl didn’t cause anybody to question anything.And R kelly survivors didn’t come forward to expose him.So everything was fine unfurtumately.Age ain’t nothing by a number was released in 1994.Aaliyah exude cooolnes in her Music video.She was wearing baggy clothes.And showing who she is.What was refreshing this was someone being themselves.And not someone who was doing it because she had to sell a fake image of themselves.

1996 she signed to Atlantic records.And at that time she was 17 years old. Aaliyah career began at a very young age.The truth is that these Industry like younger people.Because they feel like they are easier to market them. Then older Artist.Her second album One in a million was involved with Missy elliot and Timbaland.The album sold 8 million copies worldwide.This was before the era of social media .Google wasn’t even invented so you had less access to the personal lives of Artist and maybe that could be the reason why Music in the 1990 didn’t sound the same.And they all had their own unique spin.

Aaliayh graduated with a 4.0 GPA.You hear stories about people not doing well.And they sometimes brag about the fact that they dropped out and didn’t do well.Because they have become very successful.However , it wasn’t the case with Aaliyah she never took pride with that.She wanted something to fall back on.Because at the end of the day.The music industry isn’t the most reliable career.To be into.Some people would argue that is not even a real career.Because your salary is never stable like a 9-5 were you know exactly how much your going to make every month.1997 at the age of 18 she wrote a  soundtrack movie called Anastasia which is in the box office for 140 million.

1998 she was featured in another soundtrack for a movie called Dr Dolittle.This was all accomplished in her teens.This was during the time she earned her first grammy nomination.1999 at the age of 20 years old she was featured in a movie called Romeon Must die.The movie was ranked number 2 at the box office .Aaliyah was also the executive producer of the movie. At a young age she was a successful singer , Dancer , Actress.And she even tried he hand on Producing. The movie during does times was a box office success.

Aaliyah was featured on another film called Queen of the Damned.Aaliyah was balancing Acting and singing.And it was both working for her very well.Artist are encouraged to pursue many different things just in case certain industries start to become very competitive Aaliyah was released on july 17 of 2001.Rock the boat was appreciated by a lot of people when it comes to the creation of the music video.And the Music.It was around the time that Aaliyah would loose her life in a plane crash.The plane crash was shocking to so many people.They couldn’t believe that something like this could happen. 7 other people dies us well.

It was reported that Aaliyah didn’t even want to get on the plane.And her boyfriend at the time Dame dash didn’t even want her to get on that plane.That circumstances that were happening.And she needed to get on the plane.Aaliyah was suppose to be featured in so many different type of films like Sparkle , Some kind of Blue.She was only 22 years old when she died.Aaliyah achieved all this at 22 years old.And imagine right now in her 40s what she would have accomplished if she was still alive.Unfurtunately we will never know.However , the next generation will get to know Aaliyah and who she was.

Aaliyah became the youngest to perform at the oscars at 19 years old.Oscars are not the same anymore.Actually award shows are not the same.Is it the lack of exciting Artist that are coming up it could be. However , nowadays we are getting so much access to the Artist.Aaliyah time was more like MTV . If artist wanted to feature their lives Mtv had to pay them big money to these Atist because they knew what they could bring.Artist lives were a lot more secretive people were not going to the Internet like that . Magazines and watching televion was more of the wave.

What would Aaliyah be doing right now?.We at valenzio believe that she would be doing more Acting then singing.Becaue we feel like she would flourish there even more.And she would still be doing Music.However not frequently. she would also be doing beauty and fashion partnerships.When you look at the way Aaliyah lookes.She is very marketable so many people would love to work with her because the way she looks can help sell a lot of their products.Aaliyah would probably start beauty and a fashion line and even drop perfume. Aaliyah could be doing so many different things .

One of our favourite Aaliyah lyrics is this [

Pre-Chorus: Aaliyah]
So Mr. DJ, keep the music grooving (Keep on grooving)
Don’t stop moving (Don’t stop moving)
Let me see you, let me see you go

This part of the lyrics if the part we enjoy the most.Sometimes when you liten to certain lyrics.The verse is not always the best part.They are other parts of the song.That are very enjoyable to listen to.Aaaliway will be remembered as someone who was not afraid to try diffeent things.And also someone who put her heart and sould when it came to her craft.When you watch the movies or even listen to the music.She wanted to make sure that it was done very well.
