That time Jet Li used Aaliyah as a weapon to fight back 😭

This album paved the way for modern alternative-R&B.

Rare snippet of Aaliyah and Jet Li filming the jump in 'Try Again', 2000

Aaliyah has been named the #40 'Best R&B Singer of All-Time' by Billboard staff.

She’s not a legend because she died young. She’s a legend because 25 years later she’s the blueprint for your favorites. Yall need to accept that Aaliyah is loved in real life, no matter how much yall try to slander her online. Her legacy isnt going anywhere.

Aaliyah was so ahead of her time! Forever an alternative R&B Icon

Black twitter collectively ignoring that this song alone retrospectively shifted the entire genre of R&B and birthed so many of today's R&B artists. There's a reason why her work is so influenctial 24 years after her death. Put some respect on her name.

She looks f*cking sickening here. R&B Queen.

I will mos def not tolerate any Aaliyah disrespect 🥱 goodnight

25 years ago this week, Aaliyah's "Try Again" reached #1 on the Hot 100.

Rare of Aaliyah with a fan (2000)

Aaliyah’s voice was pure serenity. She was effortlessly mysterious and carved out a lane that was all her own in the 90s. NOBODY sounded like her then. NOBODY sounds like her now.
