About Aaliyah
Aaliyah Dana Haughton , better known as Aaliyah , was an American R&B singer and actress. Introduced to audiences by R&B-pop singer R. Kelly, Aaliyah became famous during the mid-1990s with several hit records from the songwriting/production team of Missy Elliott and Timbaland. She found success with her debut album Age Ain't Nothing but a Number, while introducing a "street but sweet" look which would become her trademark throughout her career. Followed by two more albums, One in a Million and the self-titled Aaliyah, she has sold a total of 32 million albums worldwide. The success has also earned her five Grammy nominations.
In addition to her commercial success, her collaborations with Timbaland helped shape the sound of R&B in the latter half of the 1990s. She also modeled for Tommy Hilfiger and starred in two motion pictures, Romeo Must Die and Queen of the Damned, before her death in a plane crash in the Bahamas on August 25, 2001. Since then, Aaliyah has received much commercial success with hit singles like Miss You, and I Care 4 U. She also had 10 Top 25 hit singles on the Billboard Hot 100 including the worldwide #1 hit "Try Again", which became the first song in history to top the Billboard Hot 100 only on airplay.
