@@skywalker6648 She said her STORY isn't being told, not her MUSIC isn't being played. Artists perform all over the world so it's not surprising to know she still have fans elsewhere. However, her contribution to the culture is a different conversation that isn't explored often by others beyond our country, black platforms, and community. Artists in the industry are still inserting her into their interviews. Her face is still being being plastered on all kinds of merch, birthday celebrated, documentaries, vigils to gather and share memories etc. I just know that's not occurring in Iraq, Jordan, Egypt, Iran, Yemen, or Bahrain🥺. They aren't bumping her heavy on on her death anniversary or copying her style. Yep the way people dress is apart of hip hop as well. Kim Kardashian dressed as her one halloween and folks knew exactly who she was supposed to be. You won't see Steven Tyler from aerosmith sagging his jeans wearing unlaced Timbs and a wife beater on Larry King live talking about what the culture means to him and the impact Aaliyah had on his music.🥺 How he can relate? That's like Rod Wave wearing tight leather pants, fingernails painted, tons eyeliner and a pair of boots by Mary J. Blige. I may not be saying it how I understand it in my head. However it applies to many such as DMX who always spoke about her and he'd usually be on a black platform. Missy Elliot, Genuine, Timbaland, etc. It's not a racial thing that only black people keep their memories alive or listen to them. It's more of a cultural thing which in this instance is R&B and hip hop. It originated within a community that just happened to be black. Rappers tell their stories from a distinct pov expeirences. The grammys were created in the 50's and hip hop didn't have a category until the very late 80's. Will Smith's weird azz and DJ Jazzy Jeff won the very first one. However, rap existed more than a decade before that before that it just wasnt really being acknowleged until Kurtis Blow came along. It's deeper than music it's kind of a lifestyle also. Aaliyah bodied all of it just like Selena did for Tejanos. We listen to her, but it hits different within her culture. Back in the days ou wouldn't have seen women in Kuwait driving around with the burka off blasting Pac's Hit'em Up, wearing ruby red lipstick like Selena and the belly out like Aaliyah.🤣🤣 Sadaam Hussein would've had her head chopped off and hung up at the goat market before the song was over. I'm too fkn high for this right now. But yeah
It was not just R Kelly seems like her uncle was more involved in it to. All of them involved and you don't have to abuse a 16 year old girl special when she was determine determinant .
@@scorpiocara6798I believe that too. I think if she lived to be older she would’ve eventually realized she was a victim and became the leading drive against r Kelly now. He would’ve been in jail
To have her then boyfriend practically fiance Damon dash have him rise above it when Jay z insisted on working with The predator Showed how much of a kind-hearted, Real Love inside her heart type of truly phenomenal woman we lost at such a young age. People probably don't realize that Aliyah was only 22 when she passed away and she had already had so many number one albums and so many number one singles it is astonishing that Aaliyah was only 22 when she passed away. Was Aaliyah's death preventable? Without a doubt 100% YES this case should be reopened without a doubt and certain people should be looked into. She was an up and coming movie star. She was the princess of R&B music. I believe she was little drunk ass because she was so young still and had so much more to do as a recording artist. Romeo must Die was Aaliyah's break out role. She nailed it!! Queen of the Damned brilliant performance. Hype Williams took the private jet that Lenny Kravitz sent for Aaliyah to the Bahamas because she was uncomfortable on that small plane and never said anything to anyone about it. That should have been looked into in 2002. Jay-Z I believe was somewhat involved in something it may have just been bringing down Aailyah and rising up. She could not we all saw Austin Powers goldfinger that was Beyonce's breakout movie. She did finally book dreamgirls. Her performance was good her lyrical writing for Listen is what she should have won an academy award for. The acting is mediocre at best. The fact that Hank Williams was never ever investigated blows my mind because the following Year Lisa Left eye lopes died in a car accident and Honduras and guess who she was connected to HYPE WILLIAMS
I am 40 years old and I loved Aaliyah and her music so much as a teenager. She was a beautiful singer and soul. Such a tragedy. I still think about her ans listen to her music to this day
I thought he was being pretty rude and exploitative by continuing to reference the moment of her death. He could’ve asked in a different way rather than make the father live through that moment and his mind.
Aaliyah favors her uncle a lot. Her uncle BROKE my heart 💔 when he started crying. Man I miss Aaliyah so much and I also miss my friend Kenny who died in the crash with Aaliyah. Kenny was a best friend to Aaliyah’s mother and she asked him to go with Aaliyah to the Bahamas. She couldn’t attend and she trusted that Kenny would watch over her. He was happy to do it and the day before they left he was so excited, but he shared with me that his wife begged him not to go because she had a dream that something terrible was going to happen. I wish he had told Aaliyah and they both would probably be alive here in California today. R.I.H.P Aaliyah and Kenny ❤️🌹❤️🌹❤️🌹❤️🌹❤️🌹❤️ BTW, I named my daughter AALIYAH after her beautiful soul.
Oh plz her uncle gave her to r.kelly then blackmailed r.kelly for his master's to his 1st album #2 her uncle got 90 million off her wrongful death #3 her uncle saw her as a golden goose..a work horse or a pawn for business deals. That Barry henkerson is the devil smh.
And he is still eating off the beautiful talented young woman family doesn’t mean ish, I feel like Berry and the rest of the family other than her brother was in on her death. Ain’t no way it was just a random accident… it’s just sad asf all the way RIP baby girl we love & miss you Aaliyah
I have always been suspicious of Aaliyah's family, including her uncle. He seems genuine now and probably has developed a conscience over the years as he has gotten older, especially since his stroke. But I always thought that Aaliyah's image and musical themes were too mature for her age, which none of them seemed to mind at the time. With everything that has emerged, I think her mother in particular encouraged certain behaviours and activities of Aaliyah in exchange for her fame. I understand that the mother also had an inappropriate relationship with R Kelly, and took his publishing in return for not reporting him to the police after what he did to Aaliyah. A decent mother should be more concerned about her daughter's well-being than cash, surely 🤔. It's shocking to learn that Aaliyah's uncle has fallen out with his sister. But this sadly confirms to me that her mother is a questionable character who was always prepared to exploit her daughter. If her family spent more time protecting her rather than capitalising on her talent, she may still be alive today.
Yeah the uncle may be that way now ..I think it's the fact when u are living with that for so long itnreally takes a toll on you. The mother is the prime and main suspect. She is the executor of her estate. She never released a book or movie, etc...only because she will eventually have to answer some questions.
She was murdered! She did not want to fly. She was drugged and put on the plane against her will. At the time of her death, she had long moved on from R Kelly. She was having fun, working on her clothing line and her music. RIP Aaliyah 🌹🕯️We love you, and really wish you were here. My deepest condolences to her family and true friends.
Absolutely Killed to make way for a certain someone Hype Williams took her private jet that Lenny Kravitz specifically sent for Aaliyah that day Her uncle too is involved Jay Z is also involved
BTW he lying his azz off. The reason him and his sister(Aaliyahs mom) aren't on speaking terms until this day is because she found out about her brothers involvement in Aaliyahs death! Also that 92 million payout he got that should've went to her mom and brother! He knew what R Kelly was doing to her but didn't care as long as he was still getting paid from Kelly since he was not only aaliyahs uncle but her manager!
Aaliyah’s mother has a lot to answer for. Her not being forthcoming to put the rumours to rest are very telling. I’d say the guilt of the role she played in Aaliyah’s work and personal life strained their relationship. She exposed her to R Kelly and I reckon she was involved with him herself.
The only people who were against Aaliyah being near Kelly & wanting to keep her away from him was her uncle & bf. But I could be wrong about her uncle he says one thing but other people are saying something different about him everyone around her with the exception of her bf Damon were trying to keep her down & under their control. But when an artist matures & knows what they want they're more determined than ever to break free & take control of their own life. Aaliyah isn't the first or last person to do this.
Aaliyah & her mom were extremely close. I don't think her mom had any clue what was going on. Once they found out about Rkellys involvement, the family cut him off completely. She loved her parents & always spoke highly of her family
The music and entertainment industry are full of demons. To become famous you have to sell your soul to the Devil. If you see someone famous, assume they've sold their soul to get there. Guaranteed.
Pretty strong premonitions in that one. Didn't know about R. Kelly which makes everything very slimy. It's an interesting year. R.Kelly, P. Diddler are bust. Strong rumors about Jay Z. What happened with Michael Jackson and Aaliyah? It's just getting the popcorn and enjoying the show.
I was completely devastated when she was killed! I mean I was playing her cd all Saturday night and to wake up that Sunday morning and learn that she was dead I was crushed! She’s still missed! May she rest in peace! ❤
I'll never forget the day I heard of Aaliyah's passing I was in the hospital in labor with my son when I heard that she had passed away August 26th 2001.... I was happy about the birth of my son but my heart ached at the same time for Aaliyah that was my girl! 😪
They should've had R Kelly arrested. She was failed by everyone. Her parents and those closest to her only wanted to protect her reputation and her career. Nobody cared for her well-being. It's kinda eyebrow raising that her parents don't want people to mention Aaliyah when they exposing R Kelly. It's weird because Aaliyah was also a victim. RIP Aaliyah🙏❤️👑
Whoever had her killed will have there day of reaping justice the truth will come out jealousy is a terrible thing just because she was elegant pretty and talented poor Aaliyah
@@terayshiadrake6319 see the ENEMY HAD MY COMMENTS DELETED!! Like I SAID IF AALIYAH WAS ALIVE, THIS WOMAN WOULD NOT BE AS SUCCESSFUL! “B” and “J!!!” Period!!
Nobody had her killed. Maybe some of those that were killed with her by forcing her to get on a plane that was loaded incorrectly. Weight and balance when flying is a real thing. 700lbs overweight and distributed incorrectly will result in what tragically happened to them!!
For those who know about this Uncle and his history concerning Aaliyah I'm sure you'll get what I'm about to say. He was asked point-blank after his brush with death what did he think Aaliyah experienced and this guy says he thought about her music. He seems remorseful now, but this is not the man Aaliyah was dealing with 20+ years ago. I pray he finds peace.
@@EDITZ119I agree. I think it’s a weird question to begin with. Like how would anyone know. He can only speak about his NDE and perhaps Oz should have asked about that.
When ever the radio station plays her music, it still sounds good and up to date, as if time hasn’t passed by at all. We lost such a great and kind person with so much talent.
This still hurts knowing she is no longer here. I can only imagine the level of stardom she would have achieved if she would have lived. But thanks God for the little time we had her for. Forever in our hearts ❤❤❤❤!
Taking out insurance on artists is not uncommon, but that doesn’t mean he is on the up and up! Hype insisted they go to Bahamas and took her private plane that Lenny kravitz sent her, noone questions that fact!
I had a dream about her shortly after she passed. I never met her in my life. But somehow she came to me and asked me to tell her mom she is fine and is with her grandmother. Hearing her uncle say this I believe she is with my mom wow!!!! I’m shocked!! I will never forget that dream. I was wondering why I had that dream of a total stranger. But that’s what she said to me. Interesting! I used to dream often of strangers coming to me with messages
Berry her uncle had a 90 million dollar life insurance policy on her if she died he’d get it ALL also has ALL her music rights too while her parents & brother get nothing wake up world the music industry is shady and money hungry full of Devils it was a set up for berry to be rich she was sacrificed even hype the video director took Lenny plane when it was supposed to be Aaliyah plane so she was set up and left with that small plane to crash in 😢 so tragic so young so much potential I hope she gets the justice she deserves even if it’s been 22 years later
Girl!!!! Aaliyah mom allowed that sick man R Kelly to do whatever he wanted to with her baby. In the industry life insurance is a must. Everyone has them.
And you think her uncle didnt know. He was in on it too. Barry used to manage R. kelly. Plus he didnt even have the decency to even pay for his niece’s funeral Maxwell help paid for her expenses. So he cant even tell me anything .
I’m literally sitting here trying to figure out what did R. Kelly still have to do with her life when she was in her 20s, she had distanced herself from him. This is weird.
No she was having an affair with a well-known rap artist who was married and who she became pregnant by who was not willing to leave his wife at for her.
1. The pilot joined the company few days prior 2. He had cocain and alcohol in his system 3. He didn’t want to fly the plane and argued with her team about it 4. She didn’t want to get on 5. She was given a pill that put her to sleep and carried on …..Strange!!!
I didn’t know a whole lot about Aaliyah but a lot of people lump her and Selena together as very talented women gone to soon. Sounds like she had a kind of a messed up life that ended in a terrible plane crash. That sounds like could’ve been avoided since it was deemed unsafe. Selena was murdered by someone she considered family. This is just a fucked up world. To talented people that would’ve brought us so much more joy with their music.
@Elusive19 because it was before social media...people didn't put their private lives in the media. That's your generation. Plus how it that honor? Again in your generation it is.
A beautiful young lady gone too soon. I had my daughter a few months after she died and her music was so impactful on my daughter as she was growing up that she named my one year old granddaughter after her ❤
I was so devastated when this happened. She was the most beautiful woman ever. I can’t imagine what she would of grew to be. Forever hip hops/ R & B princess ❤
I don’t care where anyone has to be! If I’m a pilot, I’m not jeopardizing my life so that a person makes it to work on time. And if someone told her Damon was in an accident, there was nothing she could’ve done about it. The safety of the passengers comes first with any airline, commercial or private. May she continue to soar🕊️🕊️🕊️
Exactly. Shows he was not a professional pilot with much experience under his belt and on drugs. Seeing how Dash is broke, I think he was careless in who he hired.
@@yehudahbenisaiah1934 But she did not insist according to witness and the pilot was on drugs with cocaine and alcohol in his system and acted irresponsibly. FACTS.
@@skywalker6648so the toxicology “REPORT” stated that but was it really true or did they just want to make all of us believe that Luis the pilot was negligent 🤷🏽♀️ when ppl have 💰 they can make certain things “go away” and make “certain things happen” 🙌🏼
@@mizzfourtunate3062 Well, we now know Damon Dash had very little money and he's the one who arranged the transportation. So, pretty sure he couldn't make anything go away. But it's more likely he hired poorly. That said, it makes more sense that maybe Aliyah didn't know what was going on because I could never believe she acted a diva and demanded her equipment and lots of luggage makes onto the plane. Not her personality.
I miss her so much..she had a huge influence on me when I was a teen..I get really sad and angry thinking about this damn crash..she was supposed to go so far make so much more of an impact with her music her acting her kind and sweet character..I hope the ppl responsible for this don’t get rest, peace or any true happiness in their lives and afterlives!
It's always shocking when someone so young dies. I wonder what she would have thought of all the R.Kelly drama and if she would have spoke up about it or kept quiet. Probably, the latter.
I believe Aaliyah was sacrificed spiritually...her family took advantage of her and i believe her soul was tired. Even though she died tragically, Aaliyah was ready to finally rest. God allowed her to come here temporarily, to have her beautiful music as well as to shed light on the industry and their demons. Aaliyah's soul was willing to take this sacrifice because she knew there was a higher purpose for her being. Aaliyah is at peace. RIP Beautiful ❤
Why would a 22 yr old want to finally rest at the peak of her career thats bs! we all go through trials and tribulation doesnt mean were ready to die smh
Love ❤ Aaliyah's music 🎶 her music is a cure for my insomnia. Aaliyah and her voice helps me to get through life. I hope Mr Barry and his Sister make up because life 🙏❤ is very short. RIP Aaliyah you are truly 💔 missed.
Not sure if the story about the pill is true because that would contradict how they said they found Aaliyah’s body.They said she was found in a position where she was sort of tucked with her head in her lap like she was bracing for impact, if she was asleep she probably wouldn’t have been found in that position.
A pill is common for people scared of flights, a valium it is called, doctors will give it to you if you ask...however, it's not something that knocks you out, it rids the edge off of anxiety, however, during a plane crash it's not going to stop the reality of death coming. Aaliyah's heart went into shock and they said it was weakened
I don't understand why Aaliyah's uncle keeps gatekeeping the rest of her music he has control of all these years. I wish Dr. Oz would have asked him that.
Uncle got me crying. Aaliyah was truly a queen. She was a class act, full of love. She was taken too soon. May she always soar high! May Justice prevail! Aaliyah’s legacy will reign! 💜💕❤️🙏🌈
Other than her accolades she was someone's daughter, sister, niece, friend, colleague, a human whose life like many was cut short...it's never fair on anyone to lose life in such a young age.🙇🏾♀️😏
From what i've heard so far from not only this interview it seems like her mother was living her dreams through her daughter. That could have a parent make alot of dumb decisions and unfortunately aaliyah payed the price. Her mother's actions after her death screams guilt. There is guilt because she went through all of that trauma and died young so it was all for nothing.
@@cwright5076 I heard that too and I believe it. I remember seeing this picture of Damon Dash and Aaliyah's mother that I always felt was weird. The energy I was getting from her mother in the picture was like she was his woman. Damon looked appropriate to me but there was just something about her mother that made the photo look a bit odd. Back then I brushed it off but hearing all the stuff that has come out I believe I was spot on. She was definitely flirtatious with Damon.
Aaliyah’s mother still was in communication with rkelly and he still had his hands on her career y’all don’t find it odd that Aaliyah’s funeral was the same date of her marriage to rkelly Aaliyah was sacrificed
That’s spooky. He obviously controlled the whole family with money and even her funeral and god knows the trial of P diddy will have us find the whole truth that’s been covered up.
Ohhh my goodness my mind has been on this for a long time… when I learned she had taken a sleeping aid before the plane ride , I was puzzled..that sounds odd.. unless she experimented with drugs😬… I wish they could review her autopsy because they need to determine her health overall. Smh I love Aaliyah she is my favorite.
It was said she was drugged because she didn't want to get on the plane her reps wanted her to corporation so they slipped it in her drink without her knowing. So when she was knocked out they carried her to the plane that later crashed & killed her even her bf Damon didn't want her getting on the plane Aaliyah never did drugs. I just learned Lenny Kravitz heard about her issue about the plane & sent one of his for her to use but instead her rep took the jet instead rather than letting Aaliyah take the jet she would still be alive today had he not been the asshole & took Lenny's jet back to the states.
They said it was bcuz she had a fear of flying but on the doc. I recently watched it said her toxicology was clean there was no presence of sleepin pills or drug of any kind, I thought tht was strange🤔
@@catspaw3092 I've never heard this story nor Lenny mention this. If it's true, that's terrible. Also, maybe she had a vision of something bad happening to her.
I was on that video shoot and I hold a very dear Personal picture that I never post it of Aaliyah The very last picture she took. before she headed to the airport. I keep it. Close to my heart. And no one else has this picture. I miss her, she'll never be forgotten.❤
I cannot listen to Barry Hankerson if that is the uncle who’s talking. I remember r Kelly saying Hankerson was the one behind her meeting Kelly and encouraged the relationship. That plane should have never left the ground. Just so many questions and we will never know the truth. May God rest Aaliyah’s soul and all the souls who perished that day on that plane.
Just because he introduced them doesn't mean he wanted rkelly to sleep with her. He could have wanted him to be her mentor that's why he approved of her interacting with him. Maybe they thought some of his musical talents would rub off on her. If you don't believe him don't believe rkelly either because rkelly isn't innocent too.
@@leaaaaah78890 Not just because, but he did and he witnessed the interactions, he was there. I never said r Kelly was innocent. He wasn’t. I said I can’t listen to Hankerson.
Aaliyah was meant to be timeless.. ALL her pictures are to this day as fashionable and chick as if they were taken today, she had a unique charm and style beyond even her massive talent.
Barry is so shady. I believe Aaliyah's other Diane knew about her relationship with R. Kelly. According to one of R. Kelly's ex-girlfriends, he was also sleeping with Diane, but Barry as some nerve to throw her under the bus and tell a bold-faced lie. He is trying to dissociate himself now but in reality, he continued to manage R. Kelly for years after the marriage was revealed.
i feel like er not wanting the music released was hurting aaliyah legacy. this is stuff her fans still want to hear if she appreciated how gifted her daughter was then she wouldn't be selfish
This man seems genuine to me. The uncle. He also seems like a man in touch with his conscience and spirituality. You can see his link with R Kelly originally pains him also. He seems like he had Aaliyah’s best interests at heart by keeping her well away from R Kelly.
Aaliyah looks so much like her Uncle its crazy! I hope she was sleep when this happend atleast she died in peace! RIP BABY GIRL MISS U ALWAYS! UR FAN FROM BERMUDA! ILL NEVER FORGET THIS DAY I WAS YOUNGER NOW IM 39! XX
Barry over here fibbing He still was executive producer on R Kelly albums up to 1998 R Kelly had nothing to do with Hype. Aaliyah was close friends with him that's most likely how he ended up doing the video Diane does kind of have to realize Barry is the rightful owner of Aaliyah work. He made an investment and still should be able to capitalize off it it especially if that's what the fans want. Aaliyah legacy is literally dying out
I absolutely loved her! She was right in the prime of her career. Such an amazing talent. I wish this wasn’t her legacy. Her talent and singing should be her legacy. She was gorgeous as well and so humble. Wish we could’ve seen what else she would’ve done in this world.
Justice will be done. Shame to those who found their ego’s & money more important, that valued themselves higher than the life of someone else. The law of Karma will unexpectedly set them on their paths to be judged & paid back in full for their behavior. RIP Aaliyah ❤ you’re greatly missed.
Barry is a literal snake! Missy, Timbaland, Toni Braxton, JoJo can attest to that. He also was paid for her death releasing liability 2 days before her death.
A life gone way to soon. 😢 I believe that Aaliyah's family turned a blind eye to what was going on with her and R. Kelly, but ultimately, it was his fault. Her story is probably very similar to all the other young girls. I think the uncle has a lot of regrets and her mother as well. There are so many bad decisions that were made in the moment. I believe that after the R. Kelly situation, the family tried to regroup, be supportive, and get her back on track because she wanted to continue her career. The uncle wants to keep her music alive, and her mother probably can't bear to hear it. I hope all of them will find peace, and I wish we all would have had more time with Aaliyah.
Poor Aaliyah...so sad she was sedated and sleeping while she died on that plane crash so she didn't even know that it was happening to her and her poor uncle how brave was this man to do this interview of how broken he is over the loss of his beautiful niece❤😇
her uncle put in paper work to a court a few days before the crash saying, if anyone gets hurt on the set, it Would NOT be his fault, he was covering himself from blame, so sad for him to use her and possibly kill her wow
@@DanceDaily He didnt agree with the shoot in the first place from my understanding... He's a lawyer so thats just what lawyers do to cover their A** I honestly dont think he would do that to her..
I absolutely loved her and still do! I remember when I first heard about her death. It was on my radio alarm clock and that’s what woke me up. I shot straight out of bed and was just so heartbroken! I still feel so sad every time I hear one of her songs. To think about what she could have been. She was so successful right out of the gate! Who knows what kind of success she could have had. She truly was an Angel. May she text in peace forever. Love you Aliyah! ❤
I’m a bit disappointed that the uncle says all that and then at the end it turns out it’s all just a plug for this music app of his and he is still trying to cash in on Aaliyah’s death all these years later….
Why would Hype Williams take the private jet that was for Aaliyah…. And instead she had to use a smaller plane ✈️ …😒 she would still be here if it was the other way around..👀🤦🏽♂️
RIP Luis Morales III (1971-2001) Aaliyah Haughton (1979-2001) Scott Gallin (1960-2001) Anthony Dodd (1966-2001) Douglas Kratz (1973-2001) Gina Smith (1971-2001) Christopher Maldonado (1969-2001) Eric Foreman (1971-2001) and Keith Wallace (1952-2001)
Aaliyah was the most beautiful African American celebrity during her time. There were many other beautiful celebrities, but her graceful and humble personality made her stood out from the rest. It's no surprise if many people were intimidated and envious of her.
To know that she may not have been aware of the crash is somewhat comforting. We all still cry for Aaliyah. hype was the illest music director at the time. It would have been a no brainer to use him.
Tragic beyond words. People need to keep speaking on this so that all the people who have been abused and groomed have the space and courage to come out. As society we need to hold space for victims.
It is really a shame how money can be the root to evil🐦 and how Aaliyah's life was cut so short Aaliyah please rest in peace because you are truly truly missed 😢🌹💃
DJ 😺I was critiquing Phil Collins however it's time for me to go home 🏡 and would you like for me to come back tomorrow 🥀🥀 and if so I will be able to complete then, 🥀🥀 Im I'm almost finished 🍂 however it's no problem for me to come in 🍁 after church tomorrow ✨ thank you and I will see you then 🍁 💤😴
I remember that day. I was at high-school when a friend told me and we just bursted out in tears then got home to watch the sad news on TV. Then not so long after that WTC fell far from grace as far as it could possibly go.
Today Aaliyah would have been 45 years old. It's very hard to believe that she is not here anymore. She is loved and missed so much.
Everyday🙏❣️

That's like Rod Wave wearing tight leather pants, fingernails painted, tons eyeliner and a pair of boots by Mary J. Blige. I may not be saying it how I understand it in my head. However it applies to many such as DMX who always spoke about her and he'd usually be on a black platform. Missy Elliot, Genuine, Timbaland, etc. It's not a racial thing that only black people keep their memories alive or listen to them.

Yes. It's like news about her was kept away from other medias
@missym877 .. it's always been mainstream.. she is an important figure in music 🎶 .. she was a gift to her family & the world 🌎 ❤️
I'm so angry how the people around Aaliyah failed to protect her from her involvement with R. Kelly to her tragic death. So sad & infuriating.
Her uncle knew as well dont let him sit up there and fool you with his bs…
It was not just R Kelly seems like her uncle was more involved in it to. All of them involved and you don't have to abuse a 16 year old girl special when she was determine determinant .
And don't forget JayZ!!!

They couldn’t protect because they was getting led on it was all a set up in my opinion someone with money did something to them
The fact that she was able to rise above her child sexual abuse and still be a kind and genuine person is a testament to her poise and character.
She didn't know she was being abused and manipulated
Shame on man and women kind😢
@@scorpiocara6798I believe that too. I think if she lived to be older she would’ve eventually realized she was a victim and became the leading drive against r Kelly now. He would’ve been in jail
To have her then boyfriend practically fiance Damon dash have him rise above it when Jay z insisted on working with The predator Showed how much of a kind-hearted, Real Love inside her heart type of truly phenomenal woman we lost at such a young age. People probably don't realize that Aliyah was only 22 when she passed away and she had already had so many number one albums and so many number one singles it is astonishing that Aaliyah was only 22 when she passed away. Was Aaliyah's death preventable? Without a doubt 100% YES this case should be reopened without a doubt and certain people should be looked into. She was an up and coming movie star. She was the princess of R&B music. I believe she was little drunk ass because she was so young still and had so much more to do as a recording artist. Romeo must Die was Aaliyah's break out role. She nailed it!! Queen of the Damned brilliant performance. Hype Williams took the private jet that Lenny Kravitz sent for Aaliyah to the Bahamas because she was uncomfortable on that small plane and never said anything to anyone about it. That should have been looked into in 2002. Jay-Z I believe was somewhat involved in something it may have just been bringing down Aailyah and rising up. She could not we all saw Austin Powers goldfinger that was Beyonce's breakout movie. She did finally book dreamgirls. Her performance was good her lyrical writing for Listen is what she should have won an academy award for. The acting is mediocre at best. The fact that Hank Williams was never ever investigated blows my mind because the following Year Lisa Left eye lopes died in a car accident and Honduras and guess who she was connected to HYPE WILLIAMS
And what about being estranged with her brother now? And why?????
I am 40 years old and I loved Aaliyah and her music so much as a teenager. She was a beautiful singer and soul. Such a tragedy. I still think about her ans listen to her music to this day
Same 💗🙏🏾
I cried so bad when she died 😢
Same here 😢❤
Same
Yes we do❤
I love Dr Oz even more for covering this. No other talk show would do this
I thought he was being pretty rude and exploitative by continuing to reference the moment of her death. He could’ve asked in a different way rather than make the father live through that moment and his mind.
Exactly
Thx
Don't love Dr Oz he is a fraud
Exploitative? The real question is whether time heals all wounds? Sadly, even after more than 20 years, you just heard it.
Aaliyah favors her uncle a lot. Her uncle BROKE my heart 💔 when he started crying. Man I miss Aaliyah so much and I also miss my friend Kenny who died in the crash with Aaliyah. Kenny was a best friend to Aaliyah’s mother and she asked him to go with Aaliyah to the Bahamas. She couldn’t attend and she trusted that Kenny would watch over her. He was happy to do it and the day before they left he was so excited, but he shared with me that his wife begged him not to go because she had a dream that something terrible was going to happen. I wish he had told Aaliyah and they both would probably be alive here in California today. R.I.H.P Aaliyah and Kenny ❤️🌹❤️🌹❤️🌹❤️🌹❤️🌹❤️ BTW, I named my daughter AALIYAH after her beautiful soul.
I wish he would have paid attention to commonsense safety protocols and kept her off the plane. Now, they are both gone along with others.
Her uncle stole everything
Oh plz her uncle gave her to r.kelly then blackmailed r.kelly for his master's to his 1st album
#2 her uncle got 90 million off her wrongful death
#3 her uncle saw her as a golden goose..a work horse or a pawn for business deals. That Barry henkerson is the devil smh.
Her uncle knew RKelley was horrible, & still introduced his niece to him. Had he not done so, this may not have happened at all.
And he is still eating off the beautiful talented young woman family doesn’t mean ish, I feel like Berry and the rest of the family other than her brother was in on her death. Ain’t no way it was just a random accident… it’s just sad asf all the way RIP baby girl we love & miss you Aaliyah
she was so beautiful and *authentic*. Her style was so unique. They don’t make em like that anymore.
I don’t trust her family at all. They just seem like money hungry people and never protected Aaliyah.
I agree
They had money well they uncle n her they started off rkelly career so how?
Only one protected Aaliyah was her brother
@@arielwilliamss4638having money is not the basis, it’s ppl wanting more and more even when they have it.
Exactly
I have always been suspicious of Aaliyah's family, including her uncle. He seems genuine now and probably has developed a conscience over the years as he has gotten older, especially since his stroke. But I always thought that Aaliyah's image and musical themes were too mature for her age, which none of them seemed to mind at the time. With everything that has emerged, I think her mother in particular encouraged certain behaviours and activities of Aaliyah in exchange for her fame. I understand that the mother also had an inappropriate relationship with R Kelly, and took his publishing in return for not reporting him to the police after what he did to Aaliyah. A decent mother should be more concerned about her daughter's well-being than cash, surely 🤔.
It's shocking to learn that Aaliyah's uncle has fallen out with his sister. But this sadly confirms to me that her mother is a questionable character who was always prepared to exploit her daughter. If her family spent more time protecting her rather than capitalising on her talent, she may still be alive today.
Where are people getting the story about her mother and R Kelly having a relationship/fling from? This keeps popping up.
You better preach!! Nothing but facts... they failed her. Rip Aaliyah.
Lordddd have mercy her uncle is sooooooo guilty did y'all jus see his fake tears not rolling smh dats a red flag ain't lyin dat guilt dne ate him up
I fell right I to his lies. I was completely bamboozled! Ugh! How much was the life insurance policy that he took out worth?
Yeah the uncle may be that way now ..I think it's the fact when u are living with that for so long itnreally takes a toll on you. The mother is the prime and main suspect. She is the executor of her estate. She never released a book or movie, etc...only because she will eventually have to answer some questions.
She was murdered! She did not want to fly. She was drugged and put on the plane against her will. At the time of her death, she had long moved on from R Kelly. She was having fun, working on her clothing line and her music.
RIP Aaliyah 🌹🕯️We love you, and really wish you were here.
My deepest condolences to her family and true friends.
Absolutely
Killed to make way for a certain someone
Hype Williams took her private jet that Lenny Kravitz specifically sent for Aaliyah that day
Her uncle too is involved
Jay Z is also involved
In my opinion j and b are trying to channel her through blue
I believe she was sacrificed by the illuminati to launch Beyonce. Back then Aaliyah was on top no one really knew about beyonce. She was ok back then.
To make way for Beyonce Knowles
Well said 😢❤ we love u always and forever baby girl
Aaliyah was beautiful and an amazing artist rip ❤
I honestly believe this was a set up I just can’t believe she’s gone! She doesn’t have NO BUSINESS being away from us😢😢😢😢
Yup set up !!!
I also believe it was a set up! Beyonce got just what she wanted and Jz!
It was. That has already been proven. Look it up!
BTW he lying his azz off. The reason him and his sister(Aaliyahs mom) aren't on speaking terms until this day is because she found out about her brothers involvement in Aaliyahs death! Also that 92 million payout he got that should've went to her mom and brother! He knew what R Kelly was doing to her but didn't care as long as he was still getting paid from Kelly since he was not only aaliyahs uncle but her manager!
Just cause you can’t believe it that don’t believe she didn’t die in a plane crash that was very preventable
Aaliyah’s mother has a lot to answer for. Her not being forthcoming to put the rumours to rest are very telling. I’d say the guilt of the role she played in Aaliyah’s work and personal life strained their relationship. She exposed her to R Kelly and I reckon she was involved with him herself.
Honestly she doesn’t owe the world any explanation.. I understand why she staying quiet.. because yal going to gossip whether she talks or not.
Her mother will have to answer for what she allowed to happen to her daughter.
The only people who were against Aaliyah being near Kelly & wanting to keep her away from him was her uncle & bf. But I could be wrong about her uncle he says one thing but other people are saying something different about him everyone around her with the exception of her bf Damon were trying to keep her down & under their control. But when an artist matures & knows what they want they're more determined than ever to break free & take control of their own life. Aaliyah isn't the first or last person to do this.
@@catspaw3092 You're wrong! Her uncle was R. Kelly's manager as well. He knew about his history with young girls.
Aaliyah & her mom were extremely close. I don't think her mom had any clue what was going on. Once they found out about Rkellys involvement, the family cut him off completely. She loved her parents & always spoke highly of her family
"Age ain nothing but a number" is
a slap in the face , how could adults support such a project?
Money isn't evil, humans are.
The music and entertainment industry are full of demons. To become famous you have to sell your soul to the Devil. If you see someone famous, assume they've sold their soul to get there. Guaranteed.
It's sad how often ethics are sacrificed for money and power. If only that young woman had been better protected.
Pretty strong premonitions in that one. Didn't know about R. Kelly which makes everything very slimy. It's an interesting year.
R.Kelly, P. Diddler are bust. Strong rumors about Jay Z. What happened with Michael Jackson and Aaliyah? It's just getting the popcorn and enjoying the show.
A lot of people thought it was weird even back then. One of the reasons people were looking at R Kelly sideways before his court cases.
I was completely devastated when she was killed! I mean I was playing her cd all Saturday night and to wake up that Sunday morning and learn that she was dead I was crushed! She’s still missed! May she rest in peace! ❤
Me too. I'm still sad about her death
I'll never forget the day I heard of Aaliyah's passing I was in the hospital in labor with my son when I heard that she had passed away August 26th 2001.... I was happy about the birth of my son but my heart ached at the same time for Aaliyah that was my girl! 😪
They should've had R Kelly arrested. She was failed by everyone. Her parents and those closest to her only wanted to protect her reputation and her career. Nobody cared for her well-being. It's kinda eyebrow raising that her parents don't want people to mention Aaliyah when they exposing R Kelly. It's weird because Aaliyah was also a victim. RIP Aaliyah🙏❤️👑
But was it possible that Aaliyah was in love with R.Kelly? Not excusing the age difference. She never publicly spoke on her feelings towards him.

Nobody had her killed. Maybe some of those that were killed with her by forcing her to get on a plane that was loaded incorrectly. Weight and balance when flying is a real thing. 700lbs overweight and distributed incorrectly will result in what tragically happened to them!!

For those who know about this Uncle and his history concerning Aaliyah I'm sure you'll get what I'm about to say. He was asked point-blank after his brush with death what did he think Aaliyah experienced and this guy says he thought about her music. He seems remorseful now, but this is not the man Aaliyah was dealing with 20+ years ago. I pray he finds peace.
What I was 🤔 thinking. ❤
😮😮😮
I think he was confused about the question!!
I'm confused about what you mean/what you're saying?
@@EDITZ119I agree. I think it’s a weird question to begin with. Like how would anyone know. He can only speak about his NDE and perhaps Oz should have asked about that.
When ever the radio station plays her music, it still sounds good and up to date, as if time hasn’t passed by at all. We lost such a great and kind person with so much talent.
This still hurts knowing she is no longer here. I can only imagine the level of stardom she would have achieved if she would have lived. But thanks God for the little time we had her for. Forever in our hearts ❤❤❤❤!

Taking out insurance on artists is not uncommon, but that doesn’t mean he is on the up and up! Hype insisted they go to Bahamas and took her private plane that Lenny kravitz sent her, noone questions that fact!
I had a dream about her shortly after she passed. I never met her in my life. But somehow she came to me and asked me to tell her mom she is fine and is with her grandmother. Hearing her uncle say this I believe she is with my mom wow!!!! I’m shocked!! I will never forget that dream. I was wondering why I had that dream of a total stranger. But that’s what she said to me.

Girl!!!! Aaliyah mom allowed that sick man R Kelly to do whatever he wanted to with her baby. In the industry life insurance is a must. Everyone has them.

I didn’t know a whole lot about Aaliyah but a lot of people lump her and Selena together as very talented women gone to soon. Sounds like she had a kind of a messed up life that ended in a terrible plane crash. That sounds like could’ve been avoided since it was deemed unsafe. Selena was murdered by someone she considered family. This is just a fucked up world. To talented people that would’ve brought us so much more joy with their music.
Usually, they lump her with Lisa Lopes as they died within months of each other.
She was young and nieve and beautiful and talented and needed a lot more protection in every aspect of her life.
"naive"
Why haven't her Mom ever spoke out about her daughter nor the brother??
Right! Like why can’t she honour her deceased daughters legacy. Why does she never speak of her or promote the life she created in her short time…
@Elusive19 because it was before social media...people didn't put their private lives in the media. That's your generation. Plus how it that honor? Again in your generation it is.
She’s guilty and doesn’t want to bring up anything because she doesn’t want to get hurt and wants to move on the grief
I love Dr Oz for revealing this story! Dr Oz you are the best along with your other work!
Wish he was asked about the 90 mil he received when she died an "accidental" death
Sounds like the mom made an agreement with the devil!
The devil being her brother? 🤔
It always starts with the parents.
A beautiful young lady gone too soon. I had my daughter a few months after she died and her music was so impactful on my daughter as she was growing up that she named my one year old granddaughter after her ❤
Wow does she favor her
Everyone named the kid after her it’s very creepy and obsessive
Aaliyah forever loved 🥰 and forever the ORIGINAL QUEEN 💗 of MUSIC 🎶
She is the queen of r and b… her and Selena would of destroyed these female singers of this generation
I was so devastated when this happened. She was the most beautiful woman ever. I can’t imagine what she would of grew to be. Forever hip hops/ R & B princess ❤
I don’t care where anyone has to be! If I’m a pilot, I’m not jeopardizing my life so that a person makes it to work on time. And if someone told her Damon was in an accident, there was nothing she could’ve done about it. The safety of the passengers comes first with any airline, commercial or private. May she continue to soar🕊️🕊️🕊️
Her crew forced that pilot to take off, FACTS. I seen interviews of others who was there.
Exactly. Shows he was not a professional pilot with much experience under his belt and on drugs. Seeing how Dash is broke, I think he was careless in who he hired.
@@yehudahbenisaiah1934 But she did not insist according to witness and the pilot was on drugs with cocaine and alcohol in his system and acted irresponsibly. FACTS.
@@skywalker6648so the toxicology “REPORT” stated that but was it really true or did they just want to make all of us believe that Luis the pilot was negligent 🤷🏽♀️ when ppl have 💰 they can make certain things “go away” and make “certain things happen” 🙌🏼
@@mizzfourtunate3062 Well, we now know Damon Dash had very little money and he's the one who arranged the transportation. So, pretty sure he couldn't make anything go away. But it's more likely he hired poorly. That said, it makes more sense that maybe Aliyah didn't know what was going on because I could never believe she acted a diva and demanded her equipment and lots of luggage makes onto the plane. Not her personality.
I miss her so much..she had a huge influence on me when I was a teen..I get really sad and angry thinking about this damn crash..she was supposed to go so far make so much more of an impact with her music her acting her kind and sweet character..I hope the ppl responsible for this don’t get rest, peace or any true happiness in their lives and afterlives!
It's always shocking when someone so young dies. I wonder what she would have thought of all the R.Kelly drama and if she would have spoke up about it or kept quiet. Probably, the latter.
I still have questions about the mom..ain't no way they still wanted to work with r kelly after the marriage and alleged baby..smh
They didn't.
What Barry isn’t saying is that he continued to manage R Kelly until they split in 2000.
She didn’t. Once she left from under his wing she met Missy and Timberland
Music is a hard life, not worth it
I believe Aaliyah was sacrificed spiritually...her family took advantage of her and i believe her soul was tired. Even though she died tragically, Aaliyah was ready to finally rest. God allowed her to come here temporarily, to have her beautiful music as well as to shed light on the industry and their demons. Aaliyah's soul was willing to take this sacrifice because she knew there was a higher purpose for her being. Aaliyah is at peace. RIP Beautiful ❤
This was really well said

She was such a rising star. God bless Aaliyah ❤
She did things the correct way she would have been huge the hugest
She was definitely on her way 😢
Not sure if the story about the pill is true because that would contradict how they said they found Aaliyah’s body.They said she was found in a position where she was sort of tucked with her head in her lap like she was bracing for impact, if she was asleep she probably wouldn’t have been found in that position.
the autopsy even said that she was in a extreme state of shock while the plane was going downhill
@@zeenon_smI heard that too. That she had a heart attack. My guess, the shock of knowing your plane is going down
A pill is common for people scared of flights, a valium it is called, doctors will give it to you if you ask...however, it's not something that knocks you out, it rids the edge off of anxiety, however, during a plane crash it's not going to stop the reality of death coming. Aaliyah's heart went into shock and they said it was weakened
Ummm. People curl in fetal position when they sleep.
@@LeeDfined Her head was basically in her lap as if she was bracing for impact in a downward position, I don’t think people sleep like that
I don't understand why Aaliyah's uncle keeps gatekeeping the rest of her music he has control of all these years. I wish Dr. Oz would have asked him that.

From what i've heard so far from not only this interview it seems like her mother was living her dreams through her daughter. That could have a parent make alot of dumb decisions and unfortunately aaliyah payed the price. Her mother's actions after her death screams guilt. There is guilt because she went through all of that trauma and died young so it was all for nothing.
Yea she was sleeping with r. Kelly too. Some mothers really envy their daughter. It’s sad.
@@cwright5076 I heard that too and I believe it. I remember seeing this picture of Damon Dash and Aaliyah's mother that I always felt was weird. The energy I was getting from her mother in the picture was like she was his woman. Damon looked appropriate to me but there was just something about her mother that made the photo look a bit odd. Back then I brushed it off but hearing all the stuff that has come out I believe I was spot on. She was definitely flirtatious with Damon.
Aaliyah’s mother still was in communication with rkelly and he still had his hands on her career y’all don’t find it odd that Aaliyah’s funeral was the same date of her marriage to rkelly Aaliyah was sacrificed
wow
It looks like a few parents sold their children to R Kelly 🙄
That’s spooky. He obviously controlled the whole family with money and even her funeral and god knows the trial of P diddy will have us find the whole truth that’s been covered up.

Ohhh my goodness my mind has been on this for a long time… when I learned she had taken a sleeping aid before the plane ride , I was puzzled..that sounds odd.. unless she experimented with drugs😬… I wish they could review her autopsy because they need to determine her health overall. Smh I love Aaliyah she is my favorite.
Because she had a fear of flying. That's why , according to Damon Dash .
It was said she was drugged because she didn't want to get on the plane her reps wanted her to corporation so they slipped it in her drink without her knowing. So when she was knocked out they carried her to the plane that later crashed & killed her even her bf Damon didn't want her getting on the plane Aaliyah never did drugs. I just learned Lenny Kravitz heard about her issue about the plane & sent one of his for her to use but instead her rep took the jet instead rather than letting Aaliyah take the jet she would still be alive today had he not been the asshole & took Lenny's jet back to the states.
@@catspaw3092 oh okay thank you And RIGHT. The whole story is just so weird…

I cannot listen to Barry Hankerson if that is the uncle who’s talking. I remember r Kelly saying Hankerson was the one behind her meeting Kelly and encouraged the relationship. That plane should have never left the ground. Just so many questions and we will never know the truth. May God rest Aaliyah’s soul and all the souls who perished that day on that plane.
Just because he introduced them doesn't mean he wanted rkelly to sleep with her. He could have wanted him to be her mentor that's why he approved of her interacting with him. Maybe they thought some of his musical talents would rub off on her. If you don't believe him don't believe rkelly either because rkelly isn't innocent too.
@@leaaaaah78890 Not just because, but he did and he witnessed the interactions, he was there. I never said r Kelly was innocent. He wasn’t. I said I can’t listen to Hankerson.

Aaliyah was meant to be timeless.. ALL her pictures are to this day as fashionable and chick as if they were taken today, she had a unique charm and style beyond even her massive talent.
True story
She was beautiful 😍
Barry is so shady. I believe Aaliyah's other Diane knew about her relationship with R. Kelly. According to one of R. Kelly's ex-girlfriends, he was also sleeping with Diane, but Barry as some nerve to throw her under the bus and tell a bold-faced lie. He is trying to dissociate himself now but in reality, he continued to manage R. Kelly for years after the marriage was revealed.
The name of her first album was disturbing for me. It was a red flag with R Kelly in the background. He put it right in the public faces.
And she sang it to kids on nickelodeon
i feel like er not wanting the music released was hurting aaliyah legacy. this is stuff her fans still want to hear if she appreciated how gifted her daughter was then she wouldn't be selfish
They need to reopen the case and give everybody a polygraph test
Polygraph tests are not admissible in court, because they're not accurate.
Facts
Pseudoscience
This man seems genuine to me. The uncle. He also seems like a man in touch with his conscience and spirituality. You can see his link with R Kelly originally pains him also. He seems like he had Aaliyah’s best interests at heart by keeping her well away from R Kelly.
Baby girl was everything and deserved the best 😢❤❤❤❤

Looks nothing like her uncle. Smh
It sounds like a murder to me.
Either that or R. Kelly was incredibly lucky that his highest profile victim died before exposing the truth about him.
This is a great interview/ Show. I miss Aaliyah so much and her music. 😢❤ Rest in Heaven Queen 🙏🏻
Barry over here fibbing
He still was executive producer on R Kelly albums up to 1998
R Kelly had nothing to do with Hype. Aaliyah was close friends with him that's most likely how he ended up doing the video
Diane does kind of have to realize Barry is the rightful owner of Aaliyah work. He made an investment and still should be able to capitalize off it it especially if that's what the fans want.
Aaliyah legacy is literally dying out
Good baby girl, rest in heaven 🙏 ❤️
I absolutely loved her! She was right in the prime of her career. Such an amazing talent. I wish this wasn’t her legacy. Her talent and singing should be her legacy. She was gorgeous as well and so humble. Wish we could’ve seen what else she would’ve done in this world.

-There should be more Thumbs up 👍 for Dr. OZ and Aaliyah.
Justice will be done. Shame to those who found their ego’s & money more important, that valued themselves higher than the life of someone else.
The law of Karma will unexpectedly set them on their paths to be judged & paid back in full for their behavior.
RIP Aaliyah ❤ you’re greatly missed.
Beyoncé?
He really had been consistent with his story. I hope he finds solace.
Barry is a literal snake! Missy, Timbaland, Toni Braxton, JoJo can attest to that.
He also was paid for her death releasing liability 2 days before her death.
A life gone way to soon. 😢 I believe that Aaliyah's family turned a blind eye to what was going on with her and R. Kelly, but ultimately, it was his fault. Her story is probably very similar to all the other young girls. I think the uncle has a lot of regrets and her mother as well. There are so many bad decisions that were made in the moment. I believe that after the R. Kelly situation, the family tried to regroup, be supportive, and get her back on track because she wanted to continue her career. The uncle wants to keep her music alive, and her mother probably can't bear to hear it. I hope all of them will find peace, and I wish we all would have had more time with Aaliyah.
Poor Aaliyah...so sad she was sedated and sleeping while she died on that plane crash so she didn't even know that it was happening to her and her poor uncle how brave was this man to do this interview of how broken he is over the loss of his beautiful niece❤😇
😢😢🙈
her uncle put in paper work to a court a few days before the crash saying, if anyone gets hurt on the set, it Would NOT be his fault, he was covering himself from blame, so sad for him to use her and possibly kill her wow
@@DanceDaily he didnt mention that in the interview why would he kill his own niece whom he loved dearly..what you are saying makes no sense
Her poor uncle got paid 90 Million dollars after she died....poor uncle....
@@DanceDaily He didnt agree with the shoot in the first place from my understanding... He's a lawyer so thats just what lawyers do to cover their A**
I honestly dont think he would do that to her..
I absolutely loved her and still do! I remember when I first heard about her death. It was on my radio alarm clock and that’s what woke me up. I shot straight out of bed and was just so heartbroken! I still feel so sad every time I hear one of her songs. To think about what she could have been. She was so successful right out of the gate! Who knows what kind of success she could have had. She truly was an Angel. May she text in peace forever. Love you Aliyah! ❤
I’m a bit disappointed that the uncle says all that and then at the end it turns out it’s all just a plug for this music app of his and he is still trying to cash in on Aaliyah’s death all these years later….
He was part of killing her. Who made money off her death. He did.
Dsm, sad
DOCTOR IS READING HIS BODY LANGUAGE VERY WELL.. I DON'T THINK THE AUDIENCE BELIEVEED HIM ONE BIT..
Sure is
I Always felt "She's gone from here, but in much better place resting". The people that were around her are just evil souls. We miss you Aaliyah
Why would Hype Williams take the private jet that was for Aaliyah…. And instead she had to use a smaller plane ✈️ …😒 she would still be here if it was the other way around..👀🤦🏽♂️
R Kelly I believe he and hype set Aaliyah up to hurt her Family
I can't understand why the pilot would take the plane up with all the restrictions.
He gambled with his own life as well as everyone else's.

That dark place he went to when he lost consciousness was Hell! I hope he repented.
And the fact he said he seen his mother there 😬
@@catmcmillian8366I was thinking the same thing!
Hell?
Aaliyah was the most beautiful African American celebrity during her time. There were many other beautiful celebrities, but her graceful and humble personality made her stood out from the rest. It's no surprise if many people were intimidated and envious of her.
God will take any person with a good heart away from this world than a bad person will still here to this day 😢
Everyone is blaming her uncle but we haven’t heard from Aaliyah’s mom. It was her choice to use Hype Williams as the director.
To know that she may not have been aware of the crash is somewhat comforting. We all still cry for Aaliyah. hype was the illest music director at the time. It would have been a no brainer to use him.
Let's talk about the 90 million Barry made off Aaliyah after her death!
Tragic beyond words. People need to keep speaking on this so that all the people who have been abused and groomed have the space and courage to come out. As society we need to hold space for victims.
I think her uncle is implicated . He got nice money after her death
Rip beautiful girl and soul
We miss u Aaliyah 💕
It is really a shame how money can be the root to evil🐦 and how Aaliyah's life was cut so short Aaliyah please rest in peace because you are truly truly missed 😢🌹💃

Never thought the Doc would get in on this
This breaks my heart all over again RIP Aaliyah 😔☹️❤️
Can't walk with God and love the world!!😢
Right, don't be of the world are love the world......
I remember that day. I was at high-school when a friend told me and we just bursted out in tears then got home to watch the sad news on TV. Then not so long after that WTC fell far from grace as far as it could possibly go.
She’s on rotation on my playlist for long drives. When she comes on my spirit lifts! ❤
Her death will always sting… I will always cry with every interview they do speaking of her may she rest in peace and soul be with the good Lord.
I missed her so much. I love her music she had a beautiful voice
