I liked that Aaliyah seemed to have a quiet confidence. It was balanced from what I saw. That balance is ideal imo. Not too overstated but not understated either.
Aaliyah was a tomboy but her personality was very feminine and mysterious and that's what makes people especially men interested in a woman it also helps that she was gorgeous too! When she passed I remember it very well and it's amazing how her legacy still lives on ❤
She really never tried to be anyone else by herself, she wasn’t in competition with anyone but herself. And she was quite mysterious towards the public. She was confident enough to be private and not give too much away. A lot of her looks maybe considered simple or popular at the time, but they only became trendy when she wore it because she always wore what she was comfortable with. She didn’t have to do the most to have sex appeal which is why she wore everything with confidence. You can tell her style was a real expression of her, not her trying to be someone else.
To me personally the best confidence is the type that Aaliyah had like quiet, mysterious, cool, but confident and self assured. Idk just something about it! I enjoyed your video friend ❤
quiet confidence is so real. just the other day, i had a girl literally try to insult me. it was giving pick me. i just met her, and it was such a let down. she wouldn't talk to me in conversation, because she was too focused on the guy who was with us. she doesn't ask me questions when we talk in a group. she tries to undermine me as best she can. for her sake, and for mine, i choose to let her see the error of her ways. i want her to realize it, and then, when the time is right, confront her confidently and purely. she is not being very demure and mindful 😭 it upsets me the most when many women like this try to put down other women. i thought this girlw as beautiful. i looked up to her, and even took inspiration from her. but there is darkness in her. a darkness that needs to see the light.
girllll, lemme take notes. I know I have the potential to be so, however insecurity sometimes creeps in uggghhh. This was a great video man. Also, I love your style ; )
This was really good! You should continue this series. This is helping me. Aaliyah was really good in being kind but having wisdom in the public eyes of everyone. I look up to her in that area.
I will! i genuinely enjoyed making this video & it’s something i haven’t felt for a little while now 🥲 & i agree she had such grace about her and she was wise beyond her years. thank you for watching 🩷
I love how gracious she was about everything. It's a type of gratitude that is so rare, too. I watched one interview where she talked about how she loves what she does and even if it gets hard on some days, she realizes that she is living her dream. She is grateful always because sulking about it or not seeing whatever she has to do through would be ungrateful of her. Much like you I was born a little later lol but her energy is something that one doesn't need to know or see her personally to feel. She had a way about her that I had been trying to figure out and this video made me realize that it was her quiet confidence. Oh and 4 page letter and I Care 4 You are amazing honestly her whole discography lmao.
She was one of my favorite female artists still to this day❤️ she seemed so down to earth , sweet and humble but we were very robbed of what she would’ve done if she’s hadn’t passed
I heard her voice at the beginning of the video and immediately though of MJ and i appreciate confidence being quiet and i think that applies to our life as chtistian women because growing up in chruch as girls whenever they wanna shut u up theyll whip out 1 peter 3 and say women should be meek and quiet but being meek isn't being weak and easily imposed on. being meek is strength under control and being quiet isnt being silent its a calm stillness within yourself and inner peace. Not taking ish from people and being silent. Confidence isnt loud because it doesn't need to be Ego is loud because its value is in being seen and wanting people to think you're confident even though you only like youself when you have their attention. Anyways tysm for this videooo i loved itttt AND I SEE THE BANGS HAVE MADE A COMEBACKKK and the og pfp is here toooo. Luv u bookieeee💗
this was a sweet video, u made a lot of great points that totally clicked for me on why I always loved aaliyah so much. i used to work with a girl who would pick on me a lot, everyone noticed it. One day she admitted to me that it really gets under her skin how "laid back" i am, like nothing bothers me, so she'd try to ragebait me, just like you said in this video lol! definitely gotta watch out for that but if you're really earnestly self-assured it won't phase you. "She knows she's a that girl but she doesn't need to make you feel like you're not that girl for her to know she's that girl" you nailed it with that statement!
I also was too young to have met Aaliyah and her music during her active time but was heavily influenced by my parents (more my mothers) music taste to the point where I kinda grew up with her music. Been playing her discogrophy on repeat ever since. Can't imagine how far she would've come if she hadn't passed away, she truely was a pure soul and from what I've seen in interview very much down to earth. Fav track is so hard to choose but some top five runners (not in order) would be: More than a woman, At your best (You Are Love), Back & Forth, One In A Million and Try Again
New subscriber here ! First and foremost thank you for this video that you did on Aaliyah. As a millennial due to her quiet confidence I have always loved her and connected so much with her but mostly respected that she always was herself.❤ My favorite Aaliyah song is : - Street Thing ( Age Ain't Nothing But A Number album) - A Girl Like You( One In A Million ablum) - I Care 4 U ( Aaliyah ablum)
I love this video! She has definitely made me love myself and carry such values it’s so nice to see a video explaining her character and how her perseverance and strength speaks! my favorite song is “The One I Gave My Heart To” and lyrically definitely gotta say “Loose Rap” because she let the fakers and real life haters know!!
Ty for just bringing up Aaliyah and just recognizing her as not only an artist but as a young woman and just what she was like. Shes inspired me so much and she was wayy ahead of her time 🥺. My favorite songg also is It’s Whatever.
I love Aaliyah (rest in peace), inspired me so much as well, and the music is outstanding (darn u r kelly for tainting some of it)-- A girl like you and heartbroken are my faves
I love you hair , you are sooo beautiful!! & LOVE your channel . I’m 44. I saw her IRL‼️🥰🥰🥰 Aaliyah was beautiful & graceful. She is truly missed. New subscriber.
I love this video! She has definitely made me love myself and carry such values it’s so nice to see a video explaining her character and how her perseverance and strength speaks!
I'm a 90s baby and lemme tell you, I've loved that woman my WHOLE life. I'm so pleased to know that a young woman of your age admires and loves Aaliyah as much as us who were here when she was here. You picked the PERFECT role model! ❤❤❤❤
This is 4 Sure Gonna b Excellent Sonya…. Yesss cause Everyone loves Aaliyah💐n I can’t Believe it’s Been 23 Years that She’s Been gone🥲🙏n Thanks🔥🔥🔥👍n Happy Wednesday😀!!!….
People don't know what they like. They'll be like "you're too quiet" then when you become more extroverted they'll say "why are black people so loud". This never ends.
Fun fact the original third album had a bonus track called messed up. Idk why they put try again on that album if it wasn’t part of that album. One of my favorites
@@rayeparis7016 I haven’t seen anyone compare her tbh, just rihanna. It’s like she can’t decide who to market herself after so she changes every few months
@@Essence-v4c I’ve seen her be compared to Rih, Bey, Aaliyah, & Christina Milian. I agrée it does change cause it seems like her team pulls from a lot of different people.

i feel like her and kali uchis are very much alike in this aspect. they’re both very soft spoken, confident, kind women
Kali uchis mentionned 🩷🎀
Amen there's a verse 1 Peter 3:4 that talks about how the gentle and quiet spirit is precious to God and how our beauty should come from within🦋
such a beautiful verse 🥹

Amen 😂 when they start doing too much, you cant stoop and do too much with them............., let them look foolish and keep shining 🌟😊
She’s was so beautiful and delicate ❤
She made it cool to be gentle and kind but also fierce and ambitious. You rarely see that balance in people nowadays. I really miss her ❤️
girllll, lemme take notes. I know I have the potential to be so, however insecurity sometimes creeps in uggghhh. This was a great video man. Also, I love your style ; )
I remember the day she passed smh. I love Aaliyah.
we were robbed! i would’ve loved to see how her music & fashion would’ve evolved over time 🥺
@@sonya.danielle she would've forever been a fashion icon. A trendsetter indeed.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts.

I just wanna say you look stunning 😍💕
AALIYAH- STREET THING will always be my favorite.
❤
FACTs Sonya your accomplishments are not your identity 💯, that is so powerful.
Aaliyah was getting ready to dominate the early 2000s it’s sad she was taken too soon
People don't know what they like. They'll be like "you're too quiet" then when you become more extroverted they'll say "why are black people so loud". This never ends.
Lara from Katseye embodies this vibe.
Sooo good! My favorite song by her is I don’t wanna 🥰
Aint none celeb on this planet who gon reach her level.. #queenAaliyah4L
love this video 💕
Aaliyah is my Roman Empire
Loved this video !
