...One in a Million*

"If at first you don't succeed... dust yourself off and try again..."
~ Aaliyah



Today marks the 10th anniversary of Aaliyah Dana Haughton’s death. The multi-talented star died in a plane crash after filming the video for her song Rock The Boat.


Aaliyah was known for her tender vocals and laid back vibe. She influenced a generation by singing sweetly over heavy Timbaland-produced beats. Bandana’s, shades, crop tops and side-swept bangs were signature to Aaliyah’s tomboy style... one of my style icons growing up.



Aaliyah’s songs are still as relevant today as they were the day they were released. Though its been ten years, Aaliyah still lives on in our hearts and on our iPods.


In her memory, Aaliyah's Top 10 Billboard Hits.

10. More Than A Woman


9. At Your Best (You Are Love)


8. If Your Girl Only Knew


7. I Don't Wanna Be


6. Try Again


5. Rock The Boat


4. I Miss You


3.  Back and Forth


2. One In A Million


1. Are You That Somebody

There will never be another quite like Aaliyah... She was truely one in a million.
January 16, 1979 – August 25, 2001
