    Her beauty and tone is something to behold.
    The symbolic nature of the snake is his behaviour traits. Cold energy, moving in twists and turns, coming in late, manipulating if she should be the one to change, even though she's seeking them to have a resolution to the issues.

    If you guys have seen the movie “Queen of The Damned”, Aaliyah played the role of Akasha. She did phenomenal in that too. I think had she still been alive, she would’ve been in so many movies and tv shows. Another acting credit she was in was Trish from the movie, “Romeo Must Die”. She was taken way too soon. 😔

    My earliest memory of Aaliyah was watching this video on 106&Park. I was so mesmerized by her and the way she handled the snakes. I was obsessed with snakes cause of her. Aaliyah 1st worked with snakes for the photoshoot for her 2001 album. Her uncle bought her 1 of the smaller ones in the video and made his TV debut on MTV TRL when she scared Carson Daly with it🤣 you can find that and the bts of this music video on youtube. React to both. Aaliyah recorded many of the songs from her 2001 album in Australia. The snakes on her hips are real and she is wearing a snake skin outfit.

    I’m pretty sure it was her idea to wear that first black outfit backwards. It’s normally worn as an open back I believe. I’m thinking it was Gucci by Tom Ford.

    • @JessieDubois8
      @JessieDubois8 Місяць тому +3

      I believe it was a Roberto Cavalli dress. He was one of her favourite designers, and one of the ones she had a working relationship with (as in, he sent her stuff and she didn’t have to go buy or ask).
      I can’t remember why, but there was a reason why it was work backwards (I wanna say there was a sizing issue, might have been too big the other way). I can’t remember if it was her idea or her stylist’s idea for her to wear it backwards, but I do remember they contacted Cavalli to let him know that they had to have it on backwards lol.

    The look y’all gave each other as soon as Aaliyah popped up in that black outfit! Love it. 😂.
    Also! Aaliyah LOVED snakes! She owned one!
    This is my favourite single by her. Vocally, it’s deceptively hard to sing. Lyrically, it’s SO good. It leaves the situation/problems in the relationship unresolved, which I find interesting. And musically, it’s so cool and ahead of the time. And that violin bit was sampled from John Ottman’s “Tricks of the trade” from the soundtrack to the movie Incognito.
    And Aaliyah looks SO cool here. She was heavily into the goth look and was very into metal and different genres of rock music during this time, which influenced her look.
    I also really love the blue outfit. She doesn’t normally have her hair wavy, so that was cool too.
    Additionally: This was the last song recorded for her last album (due to issues Timbaland was having with the label. He actually did this, and his other songs on the album, as a favour to Aaliyah, in the midst of his disputes with the label).
    It was recorded in March of 2001 and released in April of 2001. It almost didn’t make the album, that’s how close to the deadline it was! lol.
    Vocally, this is the most “recent” single we’ve gotten from her (a lot of her unreleased stuff that we later heard was recorded between 1998 and 2000, I believe).

    I think some of Aaliyah's best songs are the lesser known ones, like Choosey Lover, I Don't Wanna etc. I love her but I get a bad taste in my mouth when I see her work with R Kelly and Timbaland, which is basically the majority of her music catalogue. They both worked with her when she was really young; we know the rumours about R Kelly and Timbaland revealed publicly that he was in love with her which is not cool considering he's married and she was a teen, he was in his 20s.

    Please tell me you guys have seen Queen of the damned with Aaliyah as a vampire. She had an epic seductive dance scene still famous today. You should watch
