We Still Miss You Aaliyah

Aaliyah Dana Haughton
 January 16, 1979- August 25, 2001
 
It's been 8 years since we've lost this beautiful, talented, sweet spirit. Aaliyah blessed us with an innovative style that had most girls baring their midriffs and rockin' that infamous down-to-there wrap with the heavy swoop bangs. Her musical talent was both sweet and edgy, her beats were futuristic with lyrics ahead of their time and her dancing was phenomenal. She started out with "Back and Forth" and ended up being "More Than a Woman".
 
WE STILL MISS YOU & WILL NEVER FORGET YOU!!!

Gone Too Soon...R.I.P. MJ 1958-2009

Yesterday, June 25, 2009, we lost THE greatest performer/entertainer of our time. MJ was a multi-generational icon. A legend. His music touched so many hearts and souls across the globe. Michael Jackson was THE innovator of pop music and music videos as we know them today. It's been unfortunate in recent years that his "eccentricities" and scandals have outshone his accomplishments and talents, but in this time of mourning, I pray that we all can focus on the positive. We've all made our jokes about him--the innumerable plastic surgeries, the child molestation allegations--but nonetheless, Michael Jackson was, and is, one of a kind. There will never be another star of his tremendous talent and influence. From Michael Jackson's influence we have the stars of today...Usher, Justin Timberlake, Chris Brown, Neyo, Rihanna, Beyonce, to name a few. In some way, shape or form, he has touched a part of all of our lives. My heart goes out to his family, his children, his fans and all those who were blessed enough to know him. Michael's legacy will forever live in the hearts and souls of the old, the young, Blacks, Whites, everyone. Thank you MJ for giving us so many amazing moments to remember you by.
 
R.I.P. for eternity.
