At first Aaliyah wanted to be a young MJB now she was okay with being the princess. I see where this going
If Aaliyah was still here, do you think she would be the best female artist in R&B/Pop right now?
- Thread starter I love Latina women
- Start date

heres a fun fact:
2001: Jay Z Unplugged:
beyonce gets mad that Jay called mary "the queen" on the album.
mary thanks jay and is humbled to be asked to perform on that TV SHOW by him that was turned into an album. with a secret song
true story....

The DC albums also sold more than any Beyonce album. Those albums didn't sell solely because of Beyonce especially because Beyonce wasn't leading all of the songs. Its still a package deal no matter how you cut it. If that was the case, there would've been no need to ever put out a DC album and Beyonce would've come out the gate solo.
Furthermore, her success as a lead singer of DC would've been enough for her label to have faith in her debut. Evidently it wasn't and she had to prove her worth as a solo act outside of the group.
You even acknowledge the rest of the group, so it begs the question of what are you arguing.

How did Beyonce reach a higher peak? Aaliyah was in a movie that played in theaters while Beyonce was in a MTV remake of Carmen. Beyonce did a few features while Aaliyah had a #1 hit solo.
Yeah, we all know Beyonce went on to be one of the biggest stars ever, but to make it like Beyonce was a factor as a solo artist in '01 is rewriting history.
somebody needs to tell @phantom 4 lyfe that shes on the wrong message board.
since when did we start accepting these stan-zine postsers on sites like these?
LOL. you weren't around.
BET was rockin with destinys child way harder than Aaliyah by '99.
they got more play on urban radio than Aaliyah as well.
and they were show-stealers at things like the soul train awards - which brings me back to an earlier question, of where are Aaliyah's memorable performances at award shows & such?
doesn't matter if DMX was in the movie for 5 seconds. he was promoted as having a lead role.
we already knew jay & beyonce were an item before that song.
"work it out" is clearly a soundtrack concept record. I'm not going back-n-forth about it anymore.
Ive been asking you for YEARS if you have a mental disorder. theres a clear communication gap, buddy.

Since when do they not put stars such as DMX in the top billing of a movie? His face appears nowhere on the promo for the movie
It doesn't matter when the speculation started, "Bonnie & Clyde" pretty much confirmed everything.
In regard to "Work It Out":
Knowles' "Work It Out," produced by the Neptunes, is the first single from both the soundtrack and her own Dangerously in Love, due in October.
Dr. Evil, Dr. Dre Both Lend Remixes To 'Goldmember' Album
^^^ "bu, bu, but, "Work It Out" wasn't part of the roll-out for the album"
Last, next time you wanna erroneously diagnose someone with a mental disorder, you might wanna lay off using plural pronouns such as "we" to refer to yourself.
She would've been past her prime just like everybody eventually gets past their prime. And keep it real she was not as huge as y'all make her out to be.
By the way it's funny how people in this thread had to discredit Beyonce in order to big Aaliyah up.

Aaliyah was big over here in the UK during 00 and 01 her track Try again was played more than DC songs during that time.

She made great music, but with the way music turned out, she made have been done by 2005. Everything went real pop, and you don't hear that true R&B sound like that anymore.
But idk, I'm just speculating.

your average person didn't see the movie case & promotional posters. DMX was strategically given heavy placement in movie clips for the videos and iirc, the commercials as well, as this movie was promoted heavily to the urban music crowd.
as for "work it out", it sounds like they were gonna put out the real lead single before the album dropped. cuz "work it out" was out long before October breh.
you've already been diagnosed. take your medicine.

So Aaliyah wasn't in any of the commercials or promo?
No matter how you try to spin it, "Work It Out" was the first single. It was the real single until it flopped. And you should know singles came out months before the album in that era.
Breh, if anyone on this forum has a disorder, it's clearly you. You even admit to being wacky and post with aliases and often use plural pronouns when you really mean to refer to yourself. On top of that uou have an unhealthy obsession with downplaying artists you claim not to care much about, yet you be all up in the threads.
