@tazzy198525 4 octaves?!LOL I guess she can whistle then huh! Idk 1 singer who's been out as long as her and havent shown their range convincingly! You admit that you can't find anything with her singing soprano but still make the argument that she was. No disrespect to her but 4 octaves?LOL NOT!!! Maybe 2.5 or 3. Lets change the subject. I have videos so where or yours? You like to tell ppl she's the singer not them but do you sing?You go to school but where are your videso?
@tazzy198525 Not really!Even if you run all over the place and you use your vibrato or not use your vibrato what you're classified as will still be determined! For example Brian Mcknight is a 1st tenor. It doesnt matter what he sings on i can hear. Regardless of the style at some point of the song he'll show his range without struggle!! I keep respondin cause im addicted to debating with you!!LOL Since you say she was soprano then name me a list of ppl you consider to be soprano?
@tazzy198525 Tramayne Ross.look it up!I can only go by what i heard.I can say ima tenor but ima baritone nd have range in my false but if i say ima tenor i'd have to prove it!She was out from mid 90's til she died nd u cant find 1 clip of her singing soprano cuz it vanished?LOL I heard all her albums nd seen her live nd still don't see it.Mezzo soprano is between soprano and contralto nd 1 can lean more toward contralto but you're makn it seem like she had minnie ripperton range or somethin.
@tazzy198525 Im done! You sound like a fool! Having a style has nothing to do with range! She has never done anything to lead me to believe that she was a soprano! Okay you've had training so where are your videos since all you do is talk! You go through all these comments and when ppl say she wasnt a soprano you start a debate about it as if you'll change theri mind!LOL Okay since you couldnt do what i asked you then send me a video showing me you experience in music.
I've been singing for 29yrs but i'll take your advice and i'll double back and do my research!LOL Been singing in choir for years and i've never heard a soprano who does the bridge and rangy parts of the song in their falsetto! If she was comfortable she would be able to hit some of those notes in her natural voice but okay...
@tazzy198525 Take nothin away from her cause i love aaliyah but i never heard her sing soprano. yea she did have a beautiful voice but point out to me where she hits any soprano notes. Ima try not to respond to this non-sense! In conclusion if somebody's opinion is that she is a contralto or alto due to the work she put out before her death all we can go by is what we've heard! You can't have an opinion on youtube?LOL I like you you're fun to debate with! RIP babygirl!!!
@EdTV20 Youtube ppl or fuuny!!!LOL Who asked you? I don't have to prove that i liked her music to you!!! Fake fan!!!LOL Theirs no such thing as a fan in the music industry! Hot one minute not the next do to ppl who claim to be fans... Because she wasnt a soprano to me im a fake fan!LOL Im not a fan of anyone! I love her music and she was a beautiful young lady but i still can state my opinion on her vocal range!LOL Youtube!!!!
@tazzy198525 A person is a dummy because you're wrong!!!LOL I know music also. been singing in church all my life! ppl on youtube!!LOL Never heard a soprano sound like her but to each its on. She's a soprano okay!Lol If that makes you feel better. You're on all these videos contesting it even when the ppl who stated their opinion didnt ask you for yours! Like i said you have a page post up a video where you heard her sing soprano!Anybody can whistle? LOL Are you stupid? Who can?
@tazzy198525 LOL your favorite thing is to say this person said this and this person said that!!!LOL How is Aaliyah a soprano but Mariah carey who has way more range and can do the whistle note an alto? LOL You clearly know nothing about music but you're right im like the rest case closed!!!LOL Send us these clips that you're talkin about...
@tazzy198525 LOL What else can we go by!LOL Thats just like if Barry White said he's a tenor and all we've heard him sing is baritone or bass but we'd say awww you can't tell him what he is!!!LOL Singers will at some point show off there range.. Put up a video with Aaliyah coming anywhere close to the vocal range of Mariah carey or denise williams, lisa fisher.ect! I love aaliyah but she was nobody's soprano!
@tazzy198525 Listen to Denise Williams, Ericka Badu, Patti Labelle,Shante Moore, Shanice, Keke Wyatt. etc. Look up the definition of a soprano 1st off. Her voice wasnt the highest of female voices. In her natural voice when have you ever heard her sing soprano? Falsetto doesnt make you a soprano because if that the case prince is a soprano because his falsetto range is ridiculous!! You have to be able to hit notes full voice comfortably to be considered a soprano or whatever the vocal range is.
@tazzy198525 LOL Aaliyah was no soprano... Do you sing personally? If not then your opinion is pointless! If you do and your opinion is that she's a soprano then slap yourself! Do this... Go to a choir rehearsal and listen to the soprano's, alto's and tenors and tell me when each song makes it to the bridge she can hit those notes. Anybody can say anything! That doesnt make it true! Once again falsetto notes doesnt make you a soprano!
@tazzy198525, it's apparent that you have your opinion and I have mine. Feel free to show me ANY place where Aaliyah herself said that she was a soprano. The upper limits of her range aren't even fully supported by her breathing, and what soprano (or other singer for that matter) doesn't need to breathe? I don't know what you're talking about as far as her style, as I'm only going by her voice. Please respond with something factual; until then, I'll take you less seriously than I did before.
@tazzy198525, as you can already see, I already don't believe that. There is not a single reputable voice teacher, musical director, performance student, or pianist that will ever say that Aaliyah is a soprano. Just that simple. People are naming all these random notes (B2 and F7) that I have NEVER heard her hit.
@Mist8314, I'm just sitting here shaking my head at those who live in delirium. I'm just not understanding why those who can barely form complete thoughts feel the need to debate on something they obviously have no knowledge.
@JayCroix hilarious huh? most of these ppl debating are teenagers that werent even old enough when she died!LOL I know this aaliyah video but RIP to the queen Whitney Houston and the beautiful aaliyah!!
@tazzy198525 Damn!!! Can yall get over that!!!LOL That was sooo long ago! Ppl or entitled to their opinion. Some say she's a soprano but i disagree!! Not to say that i don't like her cuz i love me some aaliyah!!! As far as Mariah goes her voice is destroyed but she use to be a soprano.. Just because some one can sing a soprano note doesnt make them a soprano! R.I.P Aaliyah!!! Damn ppl let it go!!!
Aaliyah was always adorable but I don't know what she was doing in 1997-98 that made her drop dead gorgeous those years. Just look at the Justin Timberlake photo-shoot! Absolutely flawless
it gets no better then this she is still our baby still growing here i remember her being on star search i though she was10 but she was12.that show was a rip off she should of won.ed macmahn and that bullshit.i didnt know it was aaliyah but i was pissed she didnt win.she sang my funny valetine by rodgers and hart who are two of my favorite composers.hart was a wordsmith a very good lyricist .she will be in my heart forever.GOD LOVES YOU MORE we werent sent here to stay ive got to remember that.
Tank sang back up for Aaliyah?? Wow, didn't know that....This is one of Aaliyah's best vocal displays...Dare I say, better than her Oscar performance?
I think she should have sang it all in her chest and not tried to do the first voice in falsetto. I always love when she sang in her full voice live.. 2:41 gave me a slight WHitney vibe...
Go girl i love her voice i listen to AALIYAH everyday beautiful i just love her i aprecieate the time she was here it was a blessing from God and i aint gonna cry no more cuz i know ill see her again and she is in a better place:)
how come beyonce is mentioned in like every video on youtube? lol this is Aaliyah ppl, if yall wanna comment on beyonce, then go to HER videos and show her love then
and for people to keep saying beyonce sold 100 million records is crazy its not all beyonce she was in a group how many people where in the group four girls right people like different people sum like others and plus they had catchy songs as well thats how beyonce became so famous u think she would have done all this be herself hell no
aaliyah did say acting is what she liked best she just got big in music so she could be able to switch over cause she did major in drama and she is an amazing actress i love her amazing acting skills
instead of arguing about if she would be succesful remeber Aaliyah was moving towards more acting and mist8314 seems to forget that Timbaland was behind Aaliyah the same guy who has produced some of the biggest songs of the decade Aaliyah had signed on for Matrix 2 and 3 who is to say she would not of done songs on the soundtrack and release an album thereafter most critics agree she was on the cusp of superstardom
@bajeboi Timbaland is an asshole now! YOu gotta read every comment i ever wrote to see where im coming from. I never said she woulnt sell i said how do yall know she would! Timbaland has stopped doin R&B music and is very arrogant now. Look up Ginuwine dissin him...
@chelsea120788 Her last album was failing until she died! As i've stated and never said she would fail i said how do yall know what she woulda did if she's dead? Yall dont even know if yall would still like her music..I never said Usher isnt popular i said he's not what he use to be. When was the last time you really seen him dance? I mean dance dance?Yall are speakin of billboards im speakin of presence and sales..
@Mist8314 lets be honest the album went gold before she died the album was out for a month it was her best sales debut with an album on billboard all before she died Aaliyah never moved huge numbers in the states most of her sales were international to say the album was failing is not true for an artist who was so poorly marketed she did well lets not forget she was on blackground records and she did not crossover yet
@Mist8314 I think she would have become an amazing actress. she had just started doing movies. And whos to say that she would have done bad on the ablum? she only had one song out and it was a hit. rock the boat and More then a woman came out after she died. The album was a hit. where are you getting your info from. and on top of it all, my opinion is my own i dont need you telling me what i think is wrong because your veiws are different. and i would have always lover her music. i dont like....
@Mist8314 ... mariah carey now. but i still love all the music she did do in the past. Aaliyah had pure talent and singing and acting came natural to her. if she would have changed i think it would have been for the better. and why are you talking about usher to me. i didnt bring up anything about him! I love aaliyah and always will. and i will always express my veiws of how absolutly amazing she was.
@chelsea120788 I love her music also!! Just saying the music industry is goin down nd its not all because of bootleggin but terrible music! Imma huge Aaliyah fan. She sold 478,379 units from the time her album dropped til the sixth week died the 7th week then sold 300,000 something copies in the 7th week which is the week she died but b4 that her album sales were droppin..
@Mist8314 no bitch it was not falling it gold in a month just like drake did and it was going to keep on selling and her album was promoted well her career got huge in the 2000 until she died and if she would have never died she would have been so huge and do you have albums out no did you achevie what she did in 22 years hell no
@TheAaliyah4everboy More ignorance and disrespect!!!LOL Leave that clown Drake out of this!!! If she did what he's able to do b4 the bootlegging era started what does that say? Not a diss but who's to say she woulda been willing to sell out like the rest of these clowns have to be successful which i dont believe she wouldve! She was a very classy young lady...
@Mist8314 He's right tho. She went gold off of one single released back in early April of that year. Released July 17 2001, Aaliyah hit gold 2 weeks before her death and before the other singles were released. Instead of talking bout what coulda/woulda let's look at the past:
She was 2x Platinum with her Debut album
3x with One in a Million.
Boosted Anastasia, Dr. Doolittle, and Romeo Must Die sndtrks
2 blockbuster movies
She didn't need to sell out cuz we bought in more and more each year
@Jsoulchild I agree but i think her sells woulda dropped slightly bcuz of the not selling out.. People like India Arie who refuse to sell out and stick to their roots and what they believe in as far as their music tend to fall off. Not sayin its me bashin the artist but the fans and the radio stations are the blame for playin this bullshit!Not to mention rap music is takin over...
@Mist8314 Yeah sad truth huh.. Ppl like India & Musiq are Neo-Soul--finding it very hard to extend their fanbases. I believe they will be buzz worthy again.
Aaliyah differs--her Urban Pop style shocked the radio every time! Plus, she was real cool with Jay Z 'nem and the Hip Hop scene...she woulda kept with the innovative tunes that turn heads (with or with out Timberland), I truly believe. Good music is good music and if you stay true (Like A Keys, Mariah, Mary J,) sales will continue.
@TheAaliyah4everboy Another kid!!!LOL How old were you when Aaliyah died 11!LOL Im not responding to anymore of these ignorant messages! I stated my opinion and respect for that beautiful young lady rest her soul! Yall are haters! I gave her credit at saying she can sing but that wasnt good enough! Someone on here said she was better than Patti Labelle i replied and i've been gettin these stupid ass messages ever since!!
@TheAaliyah4everboy Ppl kill me sayn sum1 hatn! Yall are sayn retarded shit bout Beyonce who is the mst successful artist out. Im not a B fan bt she deserves her credit also. Its nt her fault Aaliyah died!She was in 1 of the top selln groups of all time also solid as a solo artist! Thats like me sayn if Pac was alive Drake wouldnt be successful! That ignorance. Cnt yall gve others their just do cuz baby girl is dead and noone know what woulda happened period!!!
@BrokenSilence08 A flop to the record labels and to the srtist is if they dont reach better sales on their last album. Like if you sale 10m on your 1st album then sale 1m on the 2nd then to the label thats good for the average artist but for Usher its a flop. He wants to be the greatest nd is the closest thing to MJ other CB so you think he's satisfied with 1. wateva units?
@BrokenSilence08 Dummy can you read!!! I said the same thing! She's dead so how can any of you say that if she was alive then Beyonce wouldnt be doin anything? 2nd Confessions was his biggest selling album but he's since then not had the same success! Of course people like it but it doesnt have the same buzz as his earlier material.. Can you read? I never said his 90's music sold more i said form the 90's.. Do you read or what?
@BrokenSilence08 Why do you think the record labels are tryna to get the people to pay for radio play? Cause they're not makin sales like they use to. Not that its the artists fault but people need to stop buying bootleggs!
@BrokenSilence08 If you go from selling over 20m on confessions to selling over 1million records 1m records on raymond vs raymond then you consider that to be climbing the ladder.. Its not his fault but the fans arent buying records anymore. Downloading,buying them from bootlegg people,and buying ringtones on their phones...
@Dboy4100X3 To u it's a big accomplishment!! I bet if you ask Usher if he's satisfied he will say no...This isnt even his style of music nd i know he's not satisfied cuz once again he wants to be the greatest!!! The only way to sell records is to cross over and thats what he's tryna do and i aint mad at him for getting his money!
you are stupid dude. This is 2010. Nobody is fucking going diamond anymore. No one is having albums that sells 5x platinum. As I said before, the best selling albums of 2009 Only sold THREE MILLION COPIES. That wouldnt be that much in the 90's maybe, but in this time age it's huge. Hell, even going Gold is an accomplishment.
@BrokenSilence08 Rhiana isnt relevant to this convo!! She hasnt even been out that long.. I never said past 2000 that was last millennium! Trey Songz has takin over as the top male R&B artist. Im not a big fan but Usher doesnt dance, perform, or bring the quality of music that he use to.. Sometimes producers can revitalize the artist! Their the ones who come up with the idea's! What are yall talkin about?LOL Name someone who's record sales went up that was out then is what im sayin..
@BrokenSilence08 Not her biggest charting album. Oiam sold more. It was out for 7wks b4 she died.. Her album sales didnt pick up til she died. How are yall gon say who wud be around if she was alive? Monica, Brandy, and Aaliyah were the girls of the 90's but who's still successful? Fans are always lookn 4 some1 new.. Look at all the artist that were over her on the billb charts b4 she died when she shot from 19 2 1. Yall are hatin on Beyonce then right?
OIAM sold more but her last album CHARTED better.. selling nearly 200k it's first week. The biggest first week sales of her career. Yes, her album was slightly falling down the charts, but when Rock The Boat impacted radio, the album jumped up a massive ten spots. after she died, the album jumped to # 1. So basically the album was climbing before she even died.
also, aaliyah was different from her 90's peers. Unlike Monica, Brandy, etc, Aaliyah was the FULL performer out of the 3. She was also a dancer, which could of helped her stay relevant. Not to mention acting. Your logic doesnt make the least bit of sense. In the early 2000's Mariah had 2 flop albums and then she made a huge comeback with the "emancipation". Rihanna's first two albums flopped and her 3rd was huge. I mean, what is your main point here?
@Mist8314 sweetie, havent u heard of Monica's ''Still Standing'' that was released this year? It peaked #1 on the U.S. Billboard Top R&B/HipHop Albums and #2 on the U.S. Billboard 200. So don't you judge Monica cause she is STILL succesful. And also she's also gonna work with R.Kelly for her upcoming album ; the king of R&B.
@xGOSSIPGIRL95 Monica has fell off from what she use to sell is what im sayin!! Yall are idiots.. Nobody is selling records forreal. No to diss but people arent buying them.. Are yall stupid are what?
@Mist8314 are you fucking stupid or what? did you even read what i wrote? Monica's last album ''Still Standing'' peaked #1 at the Hot R&B/HipHop Albums, and #2 at the US BillBoard 200. So shut the fuck up, please cuz obviously people are buying :) i did and millions of others 2.
@BrokenSilence08 Yall are getting mad! But once again im not hating im a Aaliyah fan! Just not gonna sugarcoat what i feel. Did you read? I said Ginuwine, Missy,Aaliyah, Timbaland..ect are nothing without each other but i feel like Tim was the captain of the squad. Just like a basketball team each player needs each other and that what i think they were. What has either of them really did since she passed and they split?
@AaliyahDawnTEAM She isnt a soprano! She's actually more of a contralto. She drops into her falsetto on most of the upper-registry notes.Thats like sayin Prince is a soprano just cause he belts highnotes in his falsetto.. Her regular voice is kinda low. Listen to her live singing one in a million or even Are you that somebody.
@Mist8314 she was classically trained so of course her lower range is amazing..but her head voice is just as amazing Studio/Live if not better her natural range is soprano not contralto hun..thats like saying Mariah can hit a E2 so shes an Contralto or alto when in fact her range is FULL SOPRANO
@AaliyahDawnTEAM Name 1 song that Aaliyah sang Soprano on? She's not singing Soprano on this song.. I sing in the church choir and she cant hit none of the notes that i've heard soprano's hit!No disrespect to her but i dont hear where she's singing soprano.
@Mist8314 Aaliyah has hit A5,Bb5,B5,C6,C#6,Eb6 all Soprano notes ALL OF THEM and she has hit all of them live..im not the only one who has said so she has said the same thing as well as other ppl who have don vocal range videos for Aaliyah..
@AaliyahDawnTEAM What songz? I dont get into that youtube stuff.. Name a song where she sings soprano on? Listen to her sing the national anthem and tell that she is a soprano. I know male singers who have higher voices than hers..
@Mist8314 i dont think u understand i study music majored in vocals myself..i know all about voices and Notes and how to meaure someones voice..At your best,I care 4 u,are you ready [BRIDGE] she has sund soprano on several tracks..a church choir has nohing to do with actually range hun..Aaliayh has 2 octaves more than letoya but she is also a Soprano..its all in the head voice and chest register..
@AaliyahDawnTEAM Why do people on youtube talk to others like they know nothing anout music!LOL If you really studied music you would know that Alliyah is no soprano! She cant hit any of the notes that Mariah Carey use to hit..
@Mist8314 ur missing loud belting with High Notes LMAO..are u crazy none of the men u listed has reached a Eb6 LMAO u are silly..Belts have nothing to do with what im talkin about..Ima need for you to get that highschool diploma LMAO..u are slow
@AaliyahDawnTEAM Also just because you can hit a soprano note does mean you're a soprano! The voice that you're the most comfortable with is what you are. Denise Williams is a soprano,Minnie Riperton, Patti Labelle.You're tryin to tell me that Aaliyah hits those notes through a whole song with no problem and that she's a natural soprano?
@Mist8314 her natural and comfortable range is SOPRANO her head voice from the vibrato,timbre,control,agility is soprano her natural tone on most tracks is soprano..if she was contralto her voice would be more husky like fellow contralto's Brandy and toni braxton..u cant compare minnie and others to reflect Aaliyahs voice type..they have nothing to do with her singing ability nothing..and besides Aaliyah has only reached whistle Once but head voice and super head voice she has don
@Mist8314 she is Soprano iDK why ppl assume bcuz she had or sung low on certain tracks or certain live performances that she was a contralto or Alto she has a 4 octave range ppl..she sings mostly in her Falsetto which most sopranos do..go what her The one i gave my heart to performance live on TNT she was singing full soprano notes on there..Aaliyah head voice was farr more agile and swift than her lower register especially live..she also hit a B5/C6 on the are you that somebody live version
@Jovonnie19 As i've stated before.. The notes you hit in your falsetto are not natural... Also like saying Prince is a soprano because in his falsetto he can get up there. Also like saying Eddie Kendricks is a soprano just cause he can get up there in his falsetto voice. Im talkin about her natural voice!
@Mist8314 pat's vocal range is B2-E6..Aaliyahs is F2-F7 WAYYYYYYYYYYYYy higher than Pat's if your tyrna go by octaves and range ..Aaliayh showed more range @ 22 than Pat has at her current age
B2 is second octave low notes F2 is wayy lower just liek F7[Whistle] is WAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYyy higher than a E6 which is just super head voice//its obvious im talking to a musically illiterate person..SAD..and Lol Mariah voice type is Alto her range is soprano
@AaliyahDawnTEAM So now you're saying that Aaliyah has more range than Mariah Carey in her prime! Im not illiterate you're just saying stuff that make no sense!! I've just been singing my whole life what do i know!
@Mist8314 DEAD LMAO...i said Mariahs voice type is alto but her full range is soprano LMAO..just bcuz u are a soprano doesnt mean u have the highest vocal range..look at letoya who is a Soprano then look at Beyonce who is a Mezzo but has wayy more range than her thats my point silly girl..u are a mess..just bcuz u been singing ur whole life doesnt mean u understand range,octaves,unison's and ETC..my range is wayy higher than all the ppl u listed besides Mariah and im a Mezzo..
@AaliyahDawnTEAM Silly girl!!!LOL Imma grown ass man.. Listen to the begging of this song when it first comes on and listen to when she has problems hittin soprano notes in her natural voice and goes to her falsetto..
@Mist8314 EVEN WORSE LMAO...She is not even hitting soprano notes in this video LMAO she simply transitioned to head voice..poor thing u are clueless..now like i said Aaliyah has been hittin them soprano notes since she was a child i have video proof..take it how it is
@Mist8314 its pointless for u to sit up here and go back and forth u obviously dont know anything about musical notes..SMh but commenting on men being Sopranos LMAO a mess
@Jovonnie19 I never said these men where soprano's im saying they can sing higher than her! Its no use in arguing cause you'll continue to say she is a soprano! She hasnt sang soprano on one song.. The one i gave my heart to is Soprano!!LOL I love me some Aaliyah and no disrespect but she wasnt a soprano!
@Mist8314 The one i gave my heart to..LMAO have u not heard Giving up,Ave maria,Street thing..i fing it funni that u pick the one i gave my heart to, when in fact that is not a soprano song LOl..soprano>>High notes C6 and above..LMAO all the men u listed none of them have hit past a C6 Aaliyah has several times...and im done..learn your notes first and then come back..the church choir has nothing to do with a singers TRUE range
@Mist8314 lolz man im not arguing with you but were have ya been she was sang soprano on quite a few songs learn ur ranges just because she does not do it all the time does not mean shes not
@akablaze27 Creating shit of your own just like the other facebookers!!! Streetlife shows absolutely no soprano range but as i stated im not on that anymore! I loved Aaliyah to death and its no disrespect to her but she was nobody's soprano!! When have you ever heard JD say that? Post it!!!
@akablaze27 Streetthing rather... As far as giving up is concerned she shouldve left it alone cuz noone can touch Donnie and she wasnt singing soprano on that either! The closet i've heard was in her falsetto not her natural which was on Let me know..
@Mist8314 W/E DUDE SHE WAS AN SOPRANO HAVE U NOT HEARD THE BRIDGE IN I CARE 4 U WATT ABOUT 1 IN A MILLION OR I REFUSE BUT ITS EVEN STATED IN HER BIO SO IDK WERE U JUST UR RANGES FRM JUST LET IT GO IN DONNIE IS A WHOLE MAN ANY WAY...
@akablaze27 You're an idiot!! She didnt hit soprano 1 time in one in a million!! Her bio can say wateva but i've never heard her sing soprano!! In one in a million when she starts off " I GIVE YOU LOVE AND EVERYTHING YOU WANT FROM ME" Isnt soprano!! Go on youtube and listen to the different soprano's and tell me she was a soprano.. Then you had the nerve to say Donnie is a whole man.. The range and power in his voice cant be matched by her period!!!
@Dboy4100X3 No disrespect but i loved Aaliyah but she was not all that impressive vocally but with the combination of her, Timbaland,Ginuwine,Missy Elliot, and static major was what made them hot hot hot in the 90's.. Dnt take this as a diss but she's no Whitney Houston but i love her and im gone name my daughter Aaliyah...
Not everybody has to have a powerful voice. Listen to this video. She did a great job here and the comments and the crowd reaction proves it. She had a pretty decent range, great interpretation, and not to mention a beautiful tone. Not to mention she was only a teenager the majority of her career, we dont know how advanced she would have became vocally.
@Dboy4100X3 Thats your opinion but what im saying is she was not 1 of the elite singers such as Patti Labelle, Whitney Houston, Aretha Franklin... etc If she was still alive people wouldnt be trippin off her bcuz before she died they werent. Just like Timbaland stop messing with Ginuwine he woulda stop doin her music also...Timbaland made their careers and yall know it.. What has G did without a Tim track?
Your listing all of these power houe singers. since when do you have to be a powerhouse to be great? what about Sade? Michael jackson? Stevie Wonder? Prince? Minnie Riperton? al have soft voices and have been respected.
I cant describe how amazing she was and how unique and beautiful her voice is <3

You admit that you can't find anything with her singing soprano but still make the argument that she was. No disrespect to her but 4 octaves?LOL NOT!!! Maybe 2.5 or 3. Lets change the subject.

@tazzy198525 Take nothin away from her cause i love aaliyah but i never heard her sing soprano. yea she did have a beautiful voice but point out to me where she hits any soprano notes. Ima try not to respond to this non-sense! In conclusion if somebody's opinion is that she is a contralto or alto due to the work she put out before her death all we can go by is what we've heard! You can't have an opinion on youtube?LOL I like you you're fun to debate with! RIP babygirl!!!

@tazzy198525 Listen to Denise Williams, Ericka Badu, Patti Labelle,Shante Moore, Shanice, Keke Wyatt. etc. Look up the definition of a soprano 1st off. Her voice wasnt the highest of female voices. In her natural voice when have you ever heard her sing soprano? Falsetto doesnt make you a soprano because if that the case prince is a soprano because his falsetto range is ridiculous!! You have to be able to hit notes full voice comfortably to be considered a soprano or whatever the vocal range is.
Mist8314 3 weeks ago
@tazzy198525 LOL Aaliyah was no soprano... Do you sing personally? If not then your opinion is pointless! If you do and your opinion is that she's a soprano then slap yourself! Do this... Go to a choir rehearsal and listen to the soprano's, alto's and tenors and tell me when each song makes it to the bridge she can hit those notes. Anybody can say anything! That doesnt make it true! Once again falsetto notes doesnt make you a soprano!

@tazzy198525, it's apparent that you have your opinion and I have mine. Feel free to show me ANY place where Aaliyah herself said that she was a soprano. The upper limits of her range aren't even fully supported by her breathing, and what soprano (or other singer for that matter) doesn't need to breathe? I don't know what you're talking about as far as her style, as I'm only going by her voice. Please respond with something factual; until then, I'll take you less seriously than I did before.

@tazzy198525, as you can already see, I already don't believe that. There is not a single reputable voice teacher, musical director, performance student, or pianist that will ever say that Aaliyah is a soprano. Just that simple. People are naming all these random notes (B2 and F7) that I have NEVER heard her hit.

instead of arguing about if she would be succesful remeber Aaliyah was moving towards more acting and mist8314 seems to forget that Timbaland was behind Aaliyah the same guy who has produced some of the biggest songs of the decade Aaliyah had signed on for Matrix 2 and 3 who is to say she would not of done songs on the soundtrack and release an album thereafter most critics agree she was on the cusp of superstardom

@Mist8314 lets be honest the album went gold before she died the album was out for a month it was her best sales debut with an album on billboard all before she died Aaliyah never moved huge numbers in the states most of her sales were international to say the album was failing is not true for an artist who was so poorly marketed she did well lets not forget she was on blackground records and she did not crossover yet

The album was a hit. where are you getting your info from. and on top of it all, my opinion is my own i dont need you telling me what i think is wrong because your veiws are different. and i would have always lover her music. i dont like....

Mist8314 1 year ago
@Mist8314 He's right tho. She went gold off of one single released back in early April of that year. Released July 17 2001, Aaliyah hit gold 2 weeks before her death and before the other singles were released. Instead of talking bout what coulda/woulda let's look at the past:
She was 2x Platinum with her Debut album
3x with One in a Million.
Boosted Anastasia, Dr. Doolittle, and Romeo Must Die sndtrks
2 blockbuster movies
She didn't need to sell out cuz we bought in more and more each year
Jsoulchild 1 year ago
@Jsoulchild I agree but i think her sells woulda dropped slightly bcuz of the not selling out.. People like India Arie who refuse to sell out and stick to their roots and what they believe in as far as their music tend to fall off. Not sayin its me bashin the artist but the fans and the radio stations are the blame for playin this bullshit!Not to mention rap music is takin over...
Mist8314 1 year ago
@Mist8314 Yeah sad truth huh.. Ppl like India & Musiq are Neo-Soul--finding it very hard to extend their fanbases. I believe they will be buzz worthy again.
Aaliyah differs--her Urban Pop style shocked the radio every time! Plus, she was real cool with Jay Z 'nem and the Hip Hop scene...she woulda kept with the innovative tunes that turn heads (with or with out Timberland), I truly believe. Good music is good music and if you stay true (Like A Keys, Mariah, Mary J,) sales will continue.

@BrokenSilence08 A flop to the record labels and to the srtist is if they dont reach better sales on their last album. Like if you sale 10m on your 1st album then sale 1m on the 2nd then to the label thats good for the average artist but for Usher its a flop. He wants to be the greatest nd is the closest thing to MJ other CB so you think he's satisfied with 1. wateva units?

OIAM sold more but her last album CHARTED better.. selling nearly 200k it's first week. The biggest first week sales of her career. Yes, her album was slightly falling down the charts, but when Rock The Boat impacted radio, the album jumped up a massive ten spots. after she died, the album jumped to # 1. So basically the album was climbing before she even died.

also, aaliyah was different from her 90's peers. Unlike Monica, Brandy, etc, Aaliyah was the FULL performer out of the 3. She was also a dancer, which could of helped her stay relevant. Not to mention acting. Your logic doesnt make the least bit of sense. In the early 2000's Mariah had 2 flop albums and then she made a huge comeback with the "emancipation". Rihanna's first two albums flopped and her 3rd was huge. I mean, what is your main point here?

@Mist8314 her natural and comfortable range is SOPRANO her head voice from the vibrato,timbre,control,agility is soprano her natural tone on most tracks is soprano..if she was contralto her voice would be more husky like fellow contralto's Brandy and toni braxton..u cant compare minnie and others to reflect Aaliyahs voice type..they have nothing to do with her singing ability nothing..and besides Aaliyah has only reached whistle Once but head voice and super head voice she has don

@Mist8314 she is Soprano iDK why ppl assume bcuz she had or sung low on certain tracks or certain live performances that she was a contralto or Alto she has a 4 octave range ppl..she sings mostly in her Falsetto which most sopranos do..go what her The one i gave my heart to performance live on TNT she was singing full soprano notes on there..Aaliyah head voice was farr more agile and swift than her lower register especially live..she also hit a B5/C6 on the are you that somebody live version

@Jovonnie19 As i've stated before.. The notes you hit in your falsetto are not natural... Also like saying Prince is a soprano because in his falsetto he can get up there. Also like saying Eddie Kendricks is a soprano just cause he can get up there in his falsetto voice. Im talkin about her natural voice!

Mist8314 1 year ago
@akablaze27 Streetthing rather... As far as giving up is concerned she shouldve left it alone cuz noone can touch Donnie and she wasnt singing soprano on that either! The closet i've heard was in her falsetto not her natural which was on Let me know..

akablaze27 1 year ago
@akablaze27 You're an idiot!! She didnt hit soprano 1 time in one in a million!! Her bio can say wateva but i've never heard her sing soprano!! In one in a million when she starts off " I GIVE YOU LOVE AND EVERYTHING YOU WANT FROM ME" Isnt soprano!! Go on youtube and listen to the different soprano's and tell me she was a soprano.. Then you had the nerve to say Donnie is a whole man.. The range and power in his voice cant be matched by her period!!!

@Mist8314
just because she didnt sing soprano doesnt mean she didnt do a good version.
Yea she was an alto but she was still a great vocalist!
Dboy4100X3 1 year ago
@Dboy4100X3 No disrespect but i loved Aaliyah but she was not all that impressive vocally but with the combination of her, Timbaland,Ginuwine,Missy Elliot, and static major was what made them hot hot hot in the 90's.. Dnt take this as a diss but she's no Whitney Houston but i love her and im gone name my daughter Aaliyah...

@Mist8314
Not everybody has to have a powerful voice. Listen to this video. She did a great job here and the comments and the crowd reaction proves it. She had a pretty decent range, great interpretation, and not to mention a beautiful tone. Not to mention she was only a teenager the majority of her career, we dont know how advanced she would have became vocally.
Dboy4100X3 1 year ago
@Dboy4100X3 Thats your opinion but what im saying is she was not 1 of the elite singers such as Patti Labelle, Whitney Houston, Aretha Franklin... etc If she was still alive people wouldnt be trippin off her bcuz before she died they werent. Just like Timbaland stop messing with Ginuwine he woulda stop doin her music also...Timbaland made their careers and yall know it.. What has G did without a Tim track?

@Mist8314
Your listing all of these power houe singers. since when do you have to be a powerhouse to be great? what about Sade? Michael jackson? Stevie Wonder? Prince? Minnie Riperton? al have soft voices and have been respected.
Dboy4100X3 1 year ago
@Mist8314
what are yo talking about? Aaliyah was a multi platinum selling artist when she was alive.
and Aaliyah damn near ditched Timbaland on her last album. he only did 3 tracks and it was a best selling album.
