I just want my money....
Omg in that last photo SHE LOOKS LIKE AN ANGEL
Exactly the part that angers me In the most 2021 people can’t use they’re common sense to see what these show biz parents do to their innocent kids because they want to get payed or have a certain lifestyle it’s so sickI think it’s pretty clear what happened. They sold her to the industry and I believe that happens to a lot of children in entertainment. More than people realize
Do you mean by someone else other than R. Kelly? Because it was confirmed in the documentary that he raped her when she was 14.The person from her family who talks the most is her brother, I don’t hear from anyone else.
I also think it’s possible she experienced xesual abuse growing up.
Barry Hankerson. Her mother's brother. I still can't believe he was married to Gladys Knight.Aaliyah's parents failed her. Not to mention her disgusting uncle who introduced her to R Kelly and continues to fµck with her legacy by keeping her music off streaming platforms. She deserved so much better.
I think Mya was 18.Girl I was listening to mya’s All About Me and I got uncomfortable remembering she was 16 and sisqo grown ass singing about let me come inside !!! Disgusting. A teenage girl doing a lap dance for a grown man
Mya and Aaliyah were born the same year 1979. Mya was 18/19 when all about me was released (1998) idk where that font got age 24 from. a simple google search can easily clear up a lot of confusion in this thread lolI think Mya was 18.
Yeah I don't know either. And I can remember at that time either she said or an article said she was 18.Mya and Aaliyah were born the same year 1979. Mya was 18/19 when all about me was released (1998) idk where that font got age 24 from. a simple google search can easily clear up a lot of confusion in this thread lol
This might be an unpopular opinion but I feel like we need to stop bashing her mom. We honestly don't know the full details of Aaliyah and R.Kelly's relationship.
I mean even Jim Derogatis who interviewed all his managers or people close to him said that they had genuine feelings about each other. R.Kelly is still a disgusting predator and pedophile but him and Aaliyah might have actually been in love and it didn't work out I guess.
Who? Her mother or Aaliyah, I mean the latter is kinda a no brainer given the R Kelly connection.The person from her family who talks the most is her brother, I don’t hear from anyone else.
I also think it’s possible she experienced xesual abuse growing up.
I think had her family done that, Hank would have had no choice but to make Aaliyah’s music available because the interest would have been that strong. That’s in part why I think he’s made a deal now...there’s a lot of “new” buzz around Aaliyah in the media—unfortunately due to R Kelly and the confirmation that they were married while she was still a child.I know, it's her uncle! I'm saying, with her later music not being on streaming services, it's left a hole in her legacy and with her family being so quiet, it hasn't helped. So what unfortunately gets the most attention lately has been the R. Kelly connection. It's unfortunate because that period of her life shouldn't be what people focus on the most.
They could do more with her image outside of music like Better makeup collections, merchandise, releasing BTS docs, etc.
It’s sad, cuz it makes me think back to the shady ass comment Brady made another Aaliyah being basically fast with men.Just shows you that there’s “parents” that will sell their child. What mother says her 10 year old has xes appeal? What parents selfishly desire their child’s success at any cost? That’s sick. RK’s disgusting ass mentioning her in the “Vibe” song. I never knew what he said back then so to hear it now I am disgusted. Then she would be in a studio alone with a bunch of men? Terrible and trifling.
Aaliyah was groomed around the age of 11-12 to be proud of having a sexuality, before she even hit PUBERTY, her mom was talking to her about xes appeal.People need to stop, her mom choice of words was wrong but if you have a brain you would know she was referring v to the it factor and being g a triple threat. If Aaliyah thought people would take her mom innocent comment out of context, I'm sure she would not have mention it. Aaliyah mom has been battling her own illness and still grieving her child. Everyone knew what Rkelly was DLI g back in the day, so no need to try to play Judge to her parents. All of your favorite celebrities still worked with him and I do not see anyone calling them out so leave get family alone. If they had no problems with Aaliyah being with him, they would not have shut that sh!t down when they first found out. It sounds like Rkelly people trying to spin this Blame on everyone except the man who was sleeping with other minors as well. If they are going to call out Aaliyah sick msna, they better bring in Sonya, Usher mom as well as Monica mom. Those parents welling let their kids publicly date a grown as man, while Aaliyah parents ended it once they found out. No one has sh!t to say about Jay Z hanging with a 15 year old Foxy as well as Lil Kim old ass. To little to late, all of this should have been dealt with back in 1996. So I guess Marvin Gaye and Johnny Taylor up next.
The end is my same thoughts !I think had her family done that, Hank would have had no choice but to make Aaliyah’s music available because the interest would have been that strong. That’s in part why I think he’s made a deal now...there’s a lot of “new” buzz around Aaliyah in the media—unfortunately due to R Kelly and the confirmation that they were married while she was still a child.
But I think what it all comes down to, is the mother not wanting a spotlight shined on her—with people questioning why or how she could have allowed her child to be in the circumstances she was in with R Kelly. I’ve heard a few people try to blame Aaliyah for being hard headed, stubborn and fast when she was 15–choosing to be with R Kelly, but even if that were true, she still was a damn child. You can’t be a present and responsible parent if your 15 year old is able to fly all the way to Hawaii to get married/have a honeymoon with a 31 year old. Furthermore, this whole situation with R Kelly, and his harem of young, underage girls smells like a lot of parents choosing to sell their children in hopes of fame—including Aaliyah’s mom.
My question with all of this is wtf was her dad in all of this? They never mention her dad, yet her parents were married.
Aaliyah was groomed around the age of 11-12 to be proud of having a sexuality, before she even hit PUBERTY, her mom was talking to her about xes appeal.
As someone who was xesually abused, imma make this very clear, cuz I’m tired of people running their mouths about xesual abuse victims like they get the mentality when they DO NOT. A lot of victims of abuse will speak on it and have no idea how even little opinions like “you have xes appeal at 10” is harmful. Aaliyah, probably did innocently reveal that comment, it doesn’t negate the fact that her mother was inappropriate in planting that seed in her child’s mind and making it acceptable for her child to be sexualized at mfing 10!
Her mother is also a grown ass woman—she was either in her 40s or pushing it when she made that comment about her child. There was no slip of tongue, or misunderstanding, or taking things out of context. Saying you have the “IT FACTOR” vs “you’ve been sexy since 10” hold TWO VERY DIFFERENT implications.
And had she not been so focused on sexualizing her child, Aaliyah wouldn’t have ended up married to a child predator at 15. Like you can’t dismiss words and subsequent actions and act like all of this was plain misfortune and coincidence!

So disturbing, I recently was listening to Chris Brown’s Gimme Gimme and Run it and in both songs Chris emphasises being only 16 and being able to seduce and fµck older women better. Chris was also a teen living with a grown manager who slept with him. Hollywood is a disgusting place with a pedo problem and obsession with teenage xes. A lot of sh!t happened in the past that would never fly today in the public eyeGirl I was listening to mya’s All About Me and I got uncomfortable remembering she was 16 and sisqo grown ass singing about let me come inside !!! Disgusting. A teenage girl doing a lap dance for a grown man
I remember when i was a kid i was listening to a tape by lil bow wow and he said something like "i got grown women trying to teach me about xes." I was like wth, he's only a kid. Yeah, there were a lot of kids singing about xes back thenSo disturbing, I recently was listening to Chris Brown’s Gimme Gimme and Run it and both songs Chris emphasises being only 16 and being able to seduce and fµck older women better. Chris was also a teen living with a grown manager who slept with him. Hollywood is disgusting and clearly has a pedo problem and obsession with teenage xes. A lot of sh!t happened in the past that would never fly today in the public eye
His old manager that his mom let live with when he first got in the industry, the streets said she was having s3x with him.Chris Brown's 'booty call' in Rihanna beating blamed on manager Tina DavisSo disturbing, I recently was listening to Chris Brown’s Gimme Gimme and Run it and in both songs Chris emphasises being only 16 and being able to seduce and fµck older women better.

To keep them from suing RK he gave them her Masters and I believe they own some of his.I think her mother is quiet because some nasty sh!t she doesn't want to get out went down...
Remember tasha k said on her show that Aaliyah's mother had a threesome with her daughter and r Kelly...and she has never gone after tasha k she never even denounced it or sued her for defamation and slander... she's kept quiet which leads me to believe this is true...
To keep them from suing RK he gave them her Masters and I believe they own some of his.
Wait, what?!!!Do you mean by someone else other than R. Kelly? Because it was confirmed in the documentary that he raped her when she was 14.
I know people who worked in that camp and close to Rashad so unless you and I sat at the same table and broke bread you can’t tell me anything! You as part of the masses don’t know everything only what they want you to know. You do know 95% of the industry is an illusion hence the front of all things not pure!Her parents don't own her masters, her Uncle owns them. That's why they couldn't release her music and also why they have an issue with her uncle releasing her music because they don't get any money from the streams/sales.
I HIGHLY doubt her parents own any of R Kelly's masters either. Usually the record labels owns them until the artist buys them out.
