@@theomays1382 yes, and when I said to crowd, it looks unsympatic, when they recording everything around, they attacked me on one video with johny depp. It looks so unsympatic when half of people pull out smartphones and recording everything. I dont like this age.
@@simple.1829 You are loud and WRONG. And maybe even deaf, as you can see from this video Aaliyah had a wide range, and great control of her voice + perfect falsetto and effortless chest to head voice transition. Just because she sang a certain way (softer and more chill, because it was her style) doesn't mean she couldn't sing, or "she didn't have a voice" like you say, because she DID. SHE COULD SANG. So pls do your research next time.
But people don’t even acknowledge the evolution in such a short time. Check the old interviews with Missy and Tim. For example Missy wrote I care for you in 95/96 and Aaliyah had been recorded it. They then re recorded that record for the A album. Which was also originally supposed to come out on late 98/99 . However they chose to wait and capitalize off of Romeo must die and what she was doing acting wise, as it was helping grow her fan base. But again she really chose to evolve her sound and with Static major coming in the picture they started to create more of what she wanted, and people still think Timbaland was behind that whole album when he only did like 3 songs, the rest was her static , Missy etc . Even the praise from the critics was that she finally evolved her sound into womanhood with the last album and the experiment was paying off.
Unfortunately some uneducated people think that range equals a superior singer. Someone can have power, but not range. Others can have melisma (vocal runs) without power. Some can just have a golden tone. Then there are some people who have it all. Although it’s a matter of opinion, others who can’t discern the differences will automatically jump to the belief that belting and intonation are the most important factors to a singer’s voice. That is unfortunate because Aaliyah was literally one in a million and had it all. We don’t know what kind of success or progress she would have had, but I’m sure we can all see she had the vocal chops and major potential…
On each one of her albums she would give her fans a song that showcased her vocal range. I think it was part of the industry keeping her mysterious as she wanted to be. Beginning with star search, although she didn’t win, but at 10 years old, the poise and voice comtrol. "Age ain't nothing but a number" she gave us street thing, on "One in A Million" she gave us this song, On "AALIYAH " she gave us "I refuse". All along she was telling y'all, stop saying I can't sing, cause I can! 😂
She holding back vocals. You can hear it in her voice. I think it’s the setting of the show. She knows how to make her voice calm on certain stage settings. Compared to her performance from The Oscars, when her voice was way more powerful on that setting.
@blooop I think they mean that since Aaliyah was gonna start working with Whitney on Sparkle before she passed, Whitney would've brought her out of her shell. So what they mean is "Knowing she was going to work with Whitney, she would've blew."
Navanod27 I believe she and Beyoncé would’ve been dominating the industry together they’re totally different types of R&B/Pop, she’d be the beloved Princess of R&B 🥺
Aaliyah had a beautiful tone with a lot of potential. If she kept at it she would’ve gotten better and better. It happens with a lot of singers just starting out. She was still a young girl, she didn’t have enough time :(
Yessss. Life didn't give her a chance to show us how amazing her vocals could've gotten (they were already good but yk what i mean lol). I hate that she died b4 she got a chance to perfect her craft man.
Why am I crying..this randomy popped up on my RUclips ..IM A 90S BABY IM OVER HERE GUSHINH TEARS STILL LIKE THIS WOMAN DIED YESTERDAY...OHHH HOW I MISS AAYLIAH 💔
How can I miss someone whom I never met? She was taken too soon from us. She just seems like the sweetest person and beautiful as ever. Man why she get on that plane 😢.
That's what were supposed to do, uplift each other "I hope you're album goes triple platinum" then she gives Aaliyah a hug. Aaliyah was a jewel taken soon. This clip makes me feel good inside and shows us that there are and were great people in the world.
Looking at this makes me appreciate (EVEN MORE) growing up during her time in the spotlight. I was the (self proclaimed) biggest Aaliyah fan in history. I’m so glad I got to be around and witness her career. ❤️❤️❤️
.....she sounded so precious and effortless in this performance..and the PRETTY GIRL SWAG was just so her....nobody rocked the baggy urban look better than her...
I really love this song, it's definitely one of my top favorites of Aaliyah's, this my first time seeing Her doing live in person, Her talking about kids of Her own brings tears to my eyes😢 singing with her Mother for Christmas, I want to wish Baby Girl Aaliyah Happy Birthday 🎉 today would have been Her 45th B-DAY, January 16, 2024, I cherish U and truly appreciate Miss U so much Aaliyah with much 💞
So sad when the interviewer asked her about her future with Aaliyah having children around the Christmas tree singing. Not knowing...she'll never have that.
Wow!!! She sounds just as good as the record. It seldom you see singer's who sound just like their records. What a beautiful soul and a beautiful voice. RIP PRINCESS. You are surely missed 😢 😔 💔 ❤ 😌 😞 😢
Awww adorable she was beautiful and was Taken away from us way to soon at just 22 years old God only knows why her & 8 other beautiful souls had to leave us .
It really is so annoying seeing comments saying she couldn't sing or she sings deeper live than on her records. She was 18 here, singing live even through all the bullshit the media was putting her through. No one was asking R. Kelly why he was married to a minor in interviews, they were only asking her. I can only imagine that caused an insane amount of anxiety for her. She died young and didn't have time to hone and perfect her craft. Obviously if she was here with us, she would've developed and grown vocally and the comment section would be different. The comments would look like "wow she was so young here" "omg her baby tone 😍" "her younger voice was so pretty now its deeper and fuller 🥹😍" like y'all do for every other singer, its just that she died young and all the live performances we have of Aaliyah is her singing as a TEENAGER in training not as a fully realized grown ADULT with a developed technique. Aaliyah could sing but she was also a young teen still finding her way. Think about when you were 18. Would you have felt singing live on stage? People judging you for being groomed and exploited, people calling her fast or blaming her for a predator manipulating her. She utilized her gifts the best way she could while she was here. Maturing is realizing that. Anyways she ate 😭😍 the chest to head voice and head to chest voice combo with the angelic tone WAS/IS still sickening! That's why I'm still a kept stan because I never get bored listening to her. It's like listening two artists in one. The deep sultry tone and then her signature angelic tone! ❤
I literally go back to this video just to hear 4:45 So angelic, every time I just cannot fathom how soft and soothing like a warm hug that part is. Amazing every time
OMG!!! I don’t know why I’m just discovering this (20 years after her transition), but she did an AMAZING job in this performance! I am in love with her all over again, and EVEN MORE. ❤️ #WeMissYouBabyGirl
I appreciated Aaliyah so much as a kid. It's much more gratitude to know she carried herself with such grace and left a lasting impact. Fully able to acknowledge that as an adult.
In her hair magazine coverage part she says she adds pieces of hair in for a certain look like a sew in or something ... but most of it is her hair only the back has sew in .
@@Rasheedshepard2 yes but this is her real hair here .... and why people always discussing black woman or rather if their hair real or fake y’all don’t do that with white woman or any other race woman .....
Aaliyah she can sing I remember went I first I meet her back in the mid 90's back in 1996 she was my favorite, I used to crazy about her, my whole family gave me surprised birthday party back in "97'' I was 12 years old December 9th my sister say Vanessa I got your birthday present Aaliyah came surprised me she was performed she sing and I was crying Aaliyah she came surprised me I never forget in 1997 she sing Happy birthday to me.
Wish she was still here with us today she was a down to earth person 😇🙏 but she will always be with us through her music and she will always be remember and her legacy will live on forever ♥️
Awee this makes me sad she was so beautiful I actually think she's one of the prettiest r&b singers in history! I remember as a teenager my whole room was decorated with Aaliyah posters ❤ I love her voice I love her vibe she wasn't stuck up not one bit just a sweet girl
It just hurts my heart to hear them talking about her having kids knowing that it'll never happen 💔 She is sooo missed and so loved 😍
Ikr? It really hurts.
She was a teenager here! Unbelievable!! 🥺
I grew up with her and am still missing her till this day.
I see why Whitney loved her!!!
💜💜💜She was her Sparkle originally not Jordan Sparks
Not a cell phone in sight . Just everyone living and enjoying the moment . I miss times like this
It’s inside of a tv studio. Don’t think it would be aloud
Omggggg yessss
OMG.....I didn't notice that, but your so right! Just enjoying the moment! 💯

Boy shut up y’all so corny saying stuff like that
Her vocals are just so pleasing to the ears, r.i.p angel🕊
This is one of the only celebrities who passed away that hurt me deeply. I really liked her so much.
The vocalist jumped out! Aaliyah could SING! And had RANGE.
RIGHTTTT
That’s why I hate when people say she can’t sing. She was no Whitney but she could definitely hold her own
She could sing, but she was lip syncing here. Ever heard her sing that song live, way better than CD version.
@@Adonisbrown21 I don’t think she was lip syncing
@@jorindavidson7811 she wasn't. My bad
I love her tone. It’s so smooth and effortless. I miss her
I love Aaliyah from my heart, but Monica and Brandy can sing better. Aaliyah don’t have a VOICE. I love her though.

@@simple.1829Aaliyah sings better than Brandy. Brandy can’t even belt like Aaliyah and Monica.
She sings great. She improved from the first album. This girl showed growth in each album. We still miss you Aaliyah. You were very special

@@kiddeath1302You are right
it was not just all about her voice - it was her personality - the 90s were so much better,.. especially with her
People were not afraid to be themselves and just live.
Definitely with her. I agree
Monica always says Aaliyah’s Vocal Tone is unmatched
She said that about Brandy
I don’t get why people say Aaliyah can’t sing? Like what is singing to you? Because she not yelling at the top of her lungs? That’s crazy
Yes that’s why but she’s clearly singing
Cause they stupid and know nothing about music! I often don't lend my hears to their BS and hate
@@nakiabrown994 It's called opinions
@Shawnice Purcell You have to know the difference first between facts and opinions. You're an idiot you don't. It's a personality.

I miss these artists. Those that have no autotune, and wear clothes…
❤😂🎉
so true now everyones showing cheeks
Those men that's standing right in front of her has to be the luckiest people on this planet R.I.P. baby girl
Words can’t explain how much I miss her😔 ( let’s continue to keep her legacy alive since we don’t have her music )
It’s still unbelievable that she’s gone. So unfair. She had so much going for her and worked so hard to get there too. Smh
Barb she really did , there’s not a day I don’t think about huge she could’ve been , I listen to her everyday to honor her legacy
Caron Craig Right.. she was taken from us to soon💔
No words in the world can describe the joy she had brung to us. What an angel.😔🙏🙏🙏💕💕💕💕
Denise Gill they definitely don’t make em like her , she was such a good humble person i honestly can’t wait to meet her 🥺
Aaliyah 2024 and beyond,
On each one of her albums she would give her fans a song that showcased her vocal range. I think it was part of the industry keeping her mysterious as she wanted to be.

What a beautiful voice!!
Barb she had the voice like Whitney
@@Cmar102 okayyyy I love both but let’s not put Aaliyah’s vocals alone near Whitney’s lmao
@@Cryabtit_Rightt cause that was definitely a Reaaach 😂😂
Still listening in 2024❤❤
She holding back vocals. You can hear it in her voice. I think it’s the setting of the show. She knows how to make her voice calm on certain stage settings. Compared to her performance from The Oscars, when her voice was way more powerful on that setting.
There are many moments where she displays power
Knowing Whitney she would’ve BLEW those notes out no matter what-
@@Rasheedshepard2 who tf asked about whitney
@blooop I think they mean that since Aaliyah was gonna start working with Whitney on Sparkle before she passed, Whitney would've brought her out of her shell. So what they mean is "Knowing she was going to work with Whitney, she would've blew."
She is actually lip syncing...
Aaliyah had the most perfect face. AND she could sing? I'm always wondering what could have been.
Navanod27 I believe she and Beyoncé would’ve been dominating the industry together they’re totally different types of R&B/Pop, she’d be the beloved Princess of R&B 🥺
King Bey Right, I don’t listen to Beyoncé but she is the queen and her Aaliyah would’ve dominated!
She was already very successful let’s not overlook that. Of course more acting roles and pop success.
Tht is wht i find so captivating about her she was perfect
@@BETillman most definitely. I just feel she didnt hit her prime yet. She was only 22 when she passed
This was sung so beautifully and gracefully 🥺
People saying all things, but her vocals are powerful no one can't beat her voice i don't care who it is no one can't beat her, RIP baby girl
Such a beautiful voice and a stunning young lady! It breaks my heart that she was taken far too soon it’s just cruel!
I never really thought that Aaliyah had much of a voice but this video here, baybeeee when I tell you my butt was all wrong. Just beautiful
Aaliyah had a beautiful tone with a lot of potential. If she kept at it she would’ve gotten better and better. It happens with a lot of singers just starting out. She was still a young girl, she didn’t have enough time :(

Why am I crying..this randomy popped up on my RUclips ..IM A 90S BABY IM OVER HERE GUSHINH TEARS STILL LIKE THIS WOMAN DIED YESTERDAY...OHHH HOW I MISS AAYLIAH 💔
I was in High School when she passed. It shocked my entire family. Such a tremendous loss 😢
How can I miss someone whom I never met? She was taken too soon from us. She just seems like the sweetest person and beautiful as ever. Man why she get on that plane 😢.
Unfortunately she was forced cuz she didn't want to

"Were"
_1990_babyface We’re
And then her album went double platinum 🙏🏾 !!
She sings so beautifully. Wish she was still around.
Her headvoice is the most beautiful I have ever heard.
She was SANGING all her backgrounds vocals and harmonies on the track. Heller get that right for the record y’all !!!!
Looking at this makes me appreciate (EVEN MORE) growing up during her time in the spotlight. I was the (self proclaimed) biggest Aaliyah fan in history. I’m so glad I got to be around and witness her career. ❤️❤️❤️

This was totally ALL her real vocals before fake autotune..she could sing high and low beautifully RIP😇😪
Her voice was beautiful, strong, and angelic. ❤
Her transitions from falsetto are quick
The way she hugs her once the interview is over says it all. She would radiate anytime. Gotta love her so so much... ❤️🔥
Damn She Was My Crush Crush Growing up in the 90s and Early 2000s
Rachel was so beautiful!
She owned this performance...she was indeed a beautiful soul... forever missed🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
So sad when the lady asked her what kind of traditions she was going to continue with her kids and family. 💔
I wish everybody could see this who said she couldn’t sing
They can and have but only want to focus on the negative 🤷♂️
The people who say that are so blind and ignorant... it’s crazy
Holding back tears 😭 as I write this she was really our angel 👼🏾 on earth 🌍 so angelic, beautiful and delicate beautiful voice💜 rip Aaliyah 🕊
So sad when the interviewer asked her about her future with Aaliyah having children around the Christmas tree singing. Not knowing...she'll never have that.
Simply Aaliyah. Beautiful, pure, effortlessly, and shows her vocals greatly.
She was shy during this performance. What an angel.
Beautiful voice. Gone way to soon.
I still love Aaliyah and listen to her music in 2024. Her music is timeless 🕊️💜✨✨✨✨
Damn BET really lost its flavor, it's not the same anymore
When the star was black now it white 🤦🏽♀️
Wow!!! She sounds just as good as the record. It seldom you see singer's who sound just like their records.
What a beautiful soul and a beautiful voice.
RIP PRINCESS.
You are surely missed 😢 😔 💔 ❤ 😌 😞 😢

Yess the full video I remember when I was in six grade and I wrote down all the ingredients to her marshmallow yams

She had so much potential. 😁💪
I never heard her sing like this 😁🙌.

She blows the roof off the place with her song, with the strong tones of an angel, and then is able to sit down and chat about memories and stuff.
She was so talented😢
В этом году я узнала о певице Алие. Потрясающая певица Алия
Wow she has such a beautiful timeless voice, unique one of a kind.
The vocals on this PERFORMANCE Went CRAZY😣🤦🏽♂️🔥🔥🔥
Damn Aaliyah, pure voice of an angel! Rest in heaven baby girl.
I appreciated Aaliyah so much as a kid. It's much more gratitude to know she carried herself with such grace and left a lasting impact. Fully able to acknowledge that as an adult.
My heart will forever break over the death of this baby girl. She was so talented. RIP Princess 😢😢😢😢😢

Her voice is so so so pretty and unique.
