Would we have wack ass Beyonce if Aaliyah didnt die?

[DANJ!]

Of course...

Aaliyah was doin' her thing... but Beyonce was already a big deal before she died. Ain't like Aaliyah was about to record all the songs Beyonce did, and then Beyonce got 'em passed down to her.

I don't believe in the whole "one person's death makes another person able to be successful" shyt anyway. Music will never revolve around one person THAT much.

Yep. Shes got a great voice but the emotion factor is missing. Shes not a legendary soul act who had a life of drama and struggle that bled into her voice and her tracks and drew you into her reality. Shes a spoiled child whos life and career has been micromanaged to a subatomic level. Everything about her is calculated and manufactured

Those two songs alone prove Beyonce has some soul. Nikka, Luther Vandross, a R & B/Soul legend did a song with her, you think he would do a song with a talent less pop singer? I'm not even a Beyonce fan but even I'm like at your post.

Also Halo was VERY soulful as well.

Please.. Aaliyahs career were just about to take off while Beyonce is the Britney Spears of RnB

 

[The_Third_Man]

Beyonce would be here regardless. No rapper/singer can stop other rappers/singers from blowing up.

would people praise Aaliyah this much if she didn't die?

 

[Mike Otherz]

its a tie, 2 of them are the best young women of their time in the r&b game. I prefer aaliyahs songs though.

Really.....

So that's why Beyonce needed to put Jay-Z, Sean Paul, Usher & Slim Thug on her first 4 singles? You young dudes shouldn't speak on shyt you don't remember. At the time, Destiny's Child was hella successful but, there's was a question if Beyonce could do it solo & Columbia put every hot artist at the time on her shyt to make sure she did.

It was almost like people let out a sigh of relief once "Crazy In Love" took off....

 

[YBE]

nikka please

Aaliyah couldnt sing better than beyonce

couldnt dance better than beyonce

and definitely didnt look better than Beyonce

Aaliyah was hyped after death

Yet Aaliyah made better music.....go figure

 

[Immortalized Outlaw]

I will never like a weave wearing, shutting down a whole floor in hospital just to give birth to a baby that was never in her stomach broad. How do i know? My girl told me and showed me online. As for Aaliyah, i miss her music from back and forth to rock the boat. I will say rap and r n b is in on life support. Just my opinion though...

I don't think there was a "need" to put Jay Z and Sean Paul on the first two singles. With Jay, it was a smart move coming off of "Bonnie and Clyde '03" to have him on the first single. The relationship between them didn't hurt either. Sean Paul seemed to be more strategic because he was popular at the time. "Me, Myself and I" and "Naughty Boy" had no features though.

Columbia had every right to be hesitant though, because they tried to launch Kelly Rowland first by piggybacking off of the success of "Dilemma". She came with "Can't Nobody", but it didn't take off. With Beyonce, they tried to launch her with the Neptunes produced lead single, "Work It" for that Austin Powers' movie soundtrack didn't really take off either.

Either way, Beyonce was going to be huge regardless. She had the name and the look. She was actually doing solo appearances in the early Destiny's Child days. Once I saw her featured solo on Missy's Da Real World, I figured the solo thing was next. The same year she was featured as the love interest in Case's "Happily Ever After" video. Then came the movies

Aaliyah would be where Ri Ri is right now without all the drama surrounding her. Beyonce is way to talented to not have broke through on here on after Destiny Child.
It would be Aaliyah and Beyonce neck and neck with Aaliyah being the bigger star Imho.

at Aaliyah not being able to sing Can I Come Over >>>>



. puts my mind at ease everytime I hear it her voice
