You post "Dog" from the B2K days? :rudy:

Its good music, nothing spectacular. Not everyone is going to like the same music. If you don't like it don't listen to it :what:

She's been around for years in different failed groups, so props to her for finally getting a chance to shine.


Her sister is hotter and a better singer tho. :wow::shaq:




I just found out she has a new song:

I don't listen to her, that's why it's an unappreciation thread my nikka. I'm just saying people tried to put me on by saying that she's some amazing singer or something and she sounds straight autotune :umad:

North Jersey but I miss Cali :sadcam:
I like her :manny:

I think she just as if not sexier than cassie and she can sing better.

Very average artist.

Her voice is dope on hooks in a sexy kinda way, but it pretty much ends there. I dig her hooks more than I do her actual songs.

Sailing Souls is one of my favorite mixtapes and I keep it in rotation. I cant say I have listened to anything else of hers. Nothing special about her but the tape was cool.

Not sure how over the years this became the received wisdom but it simply isn't true. Nobody's putting her amongst the all time greats but she was a million times better than people give her credit for. She had much more than a "little range" going for her.

I love Aaliyah's music, but you're gonna tell me Street Thing was good? Let's not pretend she didn't have her struggle songs. Regardless I agree with you, people mistook her lack of power as her being a mediocre singer.
