But again, all the underage speculation is irrelevant b/c Ghost & her hooked up around 99-00 during The W sessions. It's why RZA made Gravel Pit w/ her in mind b/c she was around Ghost for a minute. It's why Meth is doing the "back & forth" line over the hook.
shyt I never knew this. It all adds up.

This is a wack take. nikkas acting like her music wasn’t dope. Brandy came in idolizing Aaliyah. Girls wanted to be like her and nikkas wanted to be with her. Plus she made dope music. Plenty of yellow chicks back then that went nowhere or had 1 hit and was finito. Brandy was the darkest of all of them and was the most successful.

You see posts like that and the dude he quoted, it's best to just ignore them.

It's not even on some "I just wasn't a fan" shyt, they say things so nonsensical, it makes you question if they were of age when that person was hot

Nah DMX def hit. No question.
See r.I.p to Aaliyah n all ….. but I heard these stories back in the day that she got around with a fair few big name rappers / r n b singers n big wig music heads … let’s see r Kelly , ghostface , most likely dmx hit , jay , dame god knows who else …. This sweet innocent baby girl image was a clever marketing tool that worked for her since she had a cute face n pleasant nature to her but I also
Heard she was fairly manipulative n would do anything for big fame n attention… but who knows …:yeshrug:….. again r.i.p to her it’s sad that her death was big in the news and literally 2 weeks later was somewhat forgotten about due to 9/11 happening ….. I remember that clown starr making light of her death on the radio with that stupid skit in a weird way 9/11 saved him from been fired since they brought him back to cover it …..miss Jones tells the story of dame prior to 9/11 happening trying to get Starr black ballled for that dumb shyt ….

But colorism is indeed fact. If she looked like Angie Stone, or even Brandy, no one would be :sadbron: like that.

U don’t think if Brandy died in a horrific plane crash young af after she was just making promo rounds and was getting ready to close up 2 box office movies, one being a Matrix sequel people wouldn’t feel a way bruh? U DO know a lightskin chick by the name of Left Eye passed away not even a year later in a car crash right and she was in a bigger group but still didn’t get the reaction Aaliyah got. U don’t think that just MAYBE it was something about shorty and the way she carried herself that people loved? Yes. Attractive people and especially beautiful women are popular. That isn’t some revelation. But u making like colorism is the only reason people cared is mad off base. Nothing really supports it.

Did I say anything bad about Aaliyah? Like, she untalented? She was a bad person? Nope. Not Even close.

I said a lot of brehs are color strucked and she was their image of what the s/o should be. Its true, and people in their feelings because a couple of posters pointed that out. Colorism runs deep, and it catches people off guard.

Nah. YALL tried to make like the only reason people care is because she’s lightskin. And I literally ran down proof that that’s false. Why people ain’t treating Left Eye the same way they treating Aaliyah. Regardless of who she was with in the industry it’s pretty much a known fact at this point that she was a really nice girl and mad cool and down to earth. Had good energy and people liked to be around her. That shyt takes u a long way especially if ur beautiful and don’t have to be any of those things.
