The 9th anniversary of Aaliyah‘s tragic death is today and her friend Missy Elliot had some lovely words to say about the late singer.
“There’s not a day that goes by that I don’t think of (Aaliyah) or watch a video or play her music. I miss her every day. I think it’s hard for Aaliyah to be duplicated, because she had her own lane.
“But Ciara is an R&B singer who loves to dance, and Aaliyah was that same kinda artist. We knew when she dropped a record, we couldn’t wait for the video. I think Aaliyah has influenced artists like Ciara.”
So sad.
RIP, Aaliyah.
