Back pedaling like a muh fukka. :mjlol:

It wasn’t a slow burn if it was gold after only two months, ya dumb fukk.


THATS A SLOW BURN YOU DUMB F*CK. she was an established act and her song was all over TV & radio. she should've went gold quicker than that.

Ginuwine was a new artist with less promotion on a lesser label.
Aaliyah had a hype machine and was coming off a multi-plat album.
also, you cant judge impact off of just sales. we didnt even follow sales like yall do nowadays. Ginuwine was indeed the bigger act once he got his footing. it was especially apparent when they were out on the same tour.

AGAIN YOU WERENT AROUND.
YOU PROLLY WERENT EVEN ALIVE.
STOP BEING A DIKKHEAD ALL YOUR LIFE. YOURE NEVER GONNA GET LAID AT THIS RATE.

It is not a slow burn, ya dumb fukk. You went from “it took five months to go gold.” To “it took two months to go gold but it was still a slow burn.” Tf. Was she suppose to go gold the first week out? One In A Million was actually her fasting selling album out of all three her albums, idiot.

And how the fukk was Ginuwine a bigger act when Aaliyah’s album went gold, platinum, and double platinum faster than his album did??? You are a fukkin liar. Period. All you do is lie and make up shyt.

I don’t even like coming at you like this but you stay plucking my nerves nikka. You know when a parent has to beat they kid and they be like “it hurts me more than it hurts you.” That’s how I feel having to constantly son you. Why are you even in here? You clearly don’t like Aaliyah and you clearly don’t know the facts. Get the fukk out of this thread and let those of us that know the facts argue about this because you look like a moron arguing about it.

R.Kelly has tainted this album for me


r.kelly IS the album.

you cant taint whats yours.

1. she was a debut artist on her 1st album, like I just said.
and her 3rd album was flopping until she died.
YOU WERENT AROUND

2. like I said, u cant base everything on sales. YOU WERENT AROUND TO MEASURE IMPACT.

3. u cant come at me at all. U WERENT AROUND.
and if you really feel some sort of way, you can pull up and get handled by one of my young buls.
talembout "get the f*ck outta here".:laugh: yea aird.

4. I made one comment, but you kept tagging me back, after I warned you to stop buggin me.

Why are you lying??? This is what I’m saying. Like, you stay making up shyt and trying to pass it off as factual. You are a liar. Plain and simple. None of what you’re saying actually happened. Where are you getting this shyt? You clearly were not around to witness any of this because none of what you’re saying actually happened. Like, tf.

1. Aaliyah’s third album was NOT a flop. That shyt was nearly gold after only ONE single that had come out months prior. She was working only with “We Need A Resolution” by the time she died. That one song pushed the album past 400k in a month’s time. So wtf are you talking about? And again, how fast was her second album suppose to go gold? Doesn’t matter either way because it got there faster than Ginuwine’s album, which shyts on your whole point about him being “bigger” than her.

I don’t think you understand how terrible you look. Your lies are ridiculous. Where are you getting your information? You definitely weren’t there to witness any of this.

Maybe if you could stop lying for once, you could actually learn something.

Dude is a liar. Period. He’s posting shyt that didn’t even happen. Like, all his posts are legitimately made up conjectures. None of his shyt is right.

The Booth really is a garbage subforum.


He is such a old ass weirdo. Aaliyah was huge her first three albums. She already had the cult following in the 90's. Hoes were wearing the comb over with the sunglasses and all that shyt. I remember I was there.

I never said she wasn't successful or didn't have a cult following. if you were really around, you would know what I was getting at but instead, theres a clear communication gap here. we're clearly not peers. nor do I ever see you in the real threads concerning that era. you only gravitate towards the kiddie revisionist threads like these. and your screen name is embarrassing if youre in your 30s like you claim.

she was dope for what she was, but after she died, they made her into way more that. in reality, she was a popular kid/teen novelty act. and had a fun run with the 1st two albums.
third album was a flop before she died. if you were around like you claim, you would know that. or you would at least try to dress it up like her real-time stans do. one of them is in this thread. I'm sure that hermaphrodite is lurking and will jump in and help you out pretty soon. YOU clearly weren't around tho. you may have been alive, but you weren't cognizant about r&b.

lol @ the bolded. you think I can actually learn something FROM YOU????:laugh: the guy who tried to tell me janet Jackson was a new jack swing pioneer???:laff:

you keep claiming that I'm lying but you can never say what I'm supposedly lying about.:laugh: just vague claims.

1. again YOU WERENT AROUND to know the sales climates. the big r&b stars were going gold rather quickly during that timeframe. and new acts were coming out, blowing past her.
the sales for her 3rd album were considered disappointing, even by her own label, which is the reason why they rushed out and shot the next two videos. we're talking about an artist coming off of two platinum albums & a movie. and you in here thinking those are good numbers. YOU STUPID. not to mention, the critical reception was poor. like I said, you have no clue what youre talking about. you think you can just piece together history thru what you find on google/Wikipedia and boss up on people who were actually there.

and youre going in circles about the Ginuwine thing. I already broke it down twice for you, and you ignored it.
Aaliyah was moreso a kid/teen thing. and she was never even tops in that lane. she was no superstar kid/teen act like a kriss kross or brandy, nor was she held in high-regard getting adult spins like a monica or Tevin.
meanwhile, Ginuwine was the top male r&b entertainer of his time. that alone should tell you all you need to know, even if you weren't there. but you clearly lack common sense. also, if you knew how to do research on what you missed out on, I wouldn't have to tell you this either. but youre clueless.

Again, more lies and more made up shyt. You clearly weren’t around back then because NONE of what you’re saying actually happened. Do you not realize this? Tf. Your creative writing is sick. You really should be a story teller because you genuinely do have a gift for story telling.

First off of all, how were the sales of self titled disappointing when ONE single pushed the album to nearly gold status? Again, you don’t know what the hell youre talking about. And you look terrible trying to argue. We Need A Resolution came out in April. The album was released in July. By the time she died a month later in August, the album was damn near gold off of ONE single that had come out four months prior to the album being released. You’re the one that needs to be on Wikipedia so you can get your facts and numbers straight and stop making up shyt.

And your argument about Ginuwine is terrible and you’re flip flopping all over the place. First you said, he was going gold faster than Aaliyah. That was proven to be a lie. Then you said Aaliyah’s album was a slow burner that took 5 months to go gold. Also a lie. Then you said Ginuwine was the true star of that crew. Also a lie, when Aaliyah’s album was gold, platinum, and double platinum quicker than his was certified. Then it went to “well, it may not have been five months but it was still a slow burner.” Now it’s at “Aaliyah was a teen/kiddie thing.” Like, wtf does that have to do with her outselling Ginuwine? What are you even arguing? You can’t even stick to your damn arguments because you know they’re bullshyt. You’re just all over the place and contradicting yourself in the process. It doesn’t matter how fast other artists were going platinum and gold. The argument here is about Aaliyah and Ginuwine. And the fact is - Aaliyah was doing it faster than he was. You need to stick to your argument.

Believe me. I’m the wrong person to argue with about Aaliyah. I got nothing but time today.

so basically, you don't know what a lie is.
I already said I was wrong about who went gold first. and that was a week ago. yet youre still following me around, claiming that I lied. you need me to buy you a dictionary? or are you just retarded?
and I said it was a slow burner from the beginning, and I'm correct. I was wrong about the 5 months thing, but 2 months is still a slow-burn for an established act with crazy promotion behind them.

I didn't say Ginuwine was the true star. so if anybody is lying, the liar is you constantly putting words in my mouth.
I said Ginuwine was the biggest star out the crew.
there is no argument between Aaliyah & Ginuwine. Aaliyah was kid chit. you don't realize this because you weren't around. you just google numbers.

I know you got nothing but time. you clearly don't have a life.

the rest of your post, was just you going in circles. I'm not playing that game.

give me somebody else to argue with before I sign off. you don't have nothing for me.

True star, biggest star - you reaching for semantics because you know your argument is shyt. The implication was that Ginuwine was bigger than Aaliyah at the time, and that was proven to be a LIE.

You don’t need to be arguing with anyone until you get your facts straight. As much as you flip flop and have to go back and change what you originally said, you need to fall back.

I ain’t never seen somebody flip flop but yet supposedly knows so fukkin much. You’re a sad human being.
