https://audiomack.com/nifemi-david/song/14882601

Oluwatibamise is a true expression of what I felt and how I walked my journey here. I walked my path (still walking tho)in pain and I'm grateful for this light I'm seeing on my path already
Which I know anyone can have too
I know you're ready for a turn around, know this God is still in the business of answering prayers
Pray, trust and Obey.

DEATH

On August 25, 2001, at 6:50 p.m. (EDT), Aaliyah and the of the record company boarded a twin-engine Cessna 402 light aircraft at the Marsh Harbour Airport in Abaco Islands, the Bahamas, to travel to the Opa-Locka Airport in Florida, after they completed filming the music video for "Rock the Boat".

The plane crashed and caught fire shortly after takeoff, about 200 feet (60 m) from the end of the runway.

Aaliyah and the eight others on board—pilot Luis Morales III, hair stylist Eric Forman, Anthony Dodd, security guard Scott Gallin, family friend Keith Wallace, make-up stylist Christopher Maldonado, and Blackground Records employees Douglas Kratz and Gina Smith—were all killed.

The engers had grown impatient because the Cessna was supposed to arrive at 4:30 p.m. EDT, but did not arrive until 6:15 p.m. ED,

The aircraft designated for the return flight was smaller than the one on which they had originally arrived, but it still had room to take on the whole party and all of their equipment. Charter pilot Lewis Key claimed to have overheard engers arguing with the pilot, Luis Morales III, prior to take off, adding that Morales warned them that there was too much weight for a "safe flight". The Pilot tried to convince them the plane was overloaded, but they insisted they had chartered the plane and they had to be in Miami Saturday night.

ACCIDENT (CRASH)

The aircraft crashed shortly after takeoff, about 200 feet (60 m) from the runway.Aaliyah and seven of the eight others on board were killed instantly. The other enger, a security guard, died shortly afterwards and, according to paramedics, spent his last moments worrying about Aaliyah's condition.

Music Legacy

Aaliyah has been credited for helping redefine R&B, pop and hip hop in the 1990s, "leaving an indelible imprint on the music industry as a whole."According to Billboard, she revolutionized R&B with her sultry mix of pop, soul and hip hop. In a 2001 review of her eponymous album, Rolling Stone professed that Aaliyah's impact on R&B and pop has been enormous.

On People's Mind

On August 24, 2017 MAC Cosmetics announced that an Aaliyah collection will be made available in the summer of 2018. The Aaliyah for Mac collection was released on June 20 online and June 21 in stores, along with the MAC collection, MAC and i-D Magazine partnered up to release a short film titled "A-Z of Aaliyah" which coincided with the launch.The short film highlighted and celebrated the legacy of Aaliyah with the help of select fans who were selected to be a part of the film through a casting call competition held by Mac and i–d magazin The Aaliyah for Mac collectors box was sold at $250 and it sold out within minutes during the first day of its initial release.

On August 21, 2019, the Madame Tussauds museum revealed a wax figure of Aaliyah at their Las Vegas location. The lifesize figure was modelled on Aaliyah's iconic "Try Again" outfit and makeup.

20 Years Rembrance

Today marks her 20th anniversary of tragic death with over 40,000 #Aaliyah post on Facebook Alone and a WIKIPEDIA front-page post.

Though today marks 20 years since her ing, we’re reminded - by the unfading resonance of her music, and her continued influence on today’s artists - just how much Aaliyah gave to the culture even in such a short time.

Iconic style and one of the most promising young voices on the scene - #Babygirl brought something to the stage that was, dare we say, One in a Million. - APOLLO THEATER

R.I.P to Aaliyah and all other lives that were lost exactly 20 years Ago.

FILMOGRAGPHY



At the time of her death, Aaliyah was working on several film appearances to be released back-to-back. One of these was a remake of the 1976 film Sparkle, produced by Whitney Houston. Houston would later say that Aaliyah was interested in being in the film to the point of being "enthusiastic". After she died, Houston shelved the project because her lead had "gone to a better place." The film was later completed in 2011, with Jordin Sparks replacing Aaliyah. Aaliyah had filmed part of her role in 2003's The Matrix Reloaded and was scheduled to appear in its sequel The Matrix Revolutions. Nona Gaye was recast in the role.

Throughout the intro, Elliott repeatedly calls Aaliyah's name and tells her to wake up. She also mentions that "You’ve just now entered into the next level the new world of funk" while various sounds such as echoing amid bells, blippy synths, and heavy bass are playing in the background.

The second track "Hot Like Fire" is described as a "panting minimalist controlled-blaze baby-maker" with suggestive lyricsOn "Hot Like Fire" Aaliyah "hums and moans promises to her new bae that his patience will be rewarded".

The sixth and seventh tracks "Choosey Lover" and "Got to Give It Up" are both remake covers to songs performed by The Isley Brothers and Marvin Gaye, respectively, with the latter featuring a guest appearance from rapper Slick Rick On "Got to Give It Up" Aaliyah places her falsetto "toe to toe against the liquid overlapping rhyme scheme of hip hop's ultimate storyteller Slick Rick".
