Missy Remembers Aaliyah On CNN

Thursday, August 25 2011 1:57 PM EST | Posted by: Big Homie | Posted in: Blog, R&B

Today marks the 10 year anniversary of Aaliyah’s tragic death. And like always around this time, Missy had the opportunity to reflect on Baby Girl, this time over at CNN.

Today is the 10 year anniversary of Aaliyah’s passing and I’m sitting here reminiscing and playing music, thinking of the times we spent together, working, laughing, singing, dancing, cutting up. But really, it’s not all that different from any other day because I do think about her every day.

Not on purpose, but she is my friend and that’s just how I do. I’ve told the same stories for 9 years – how we met, how me and Tim were scared but Aaliyah was so welcoming and had this smile and way about her that put us at ease, that she liked to take chances and we were able to just be who we were and make good records together.

 

She loved playing jokes and that’s another part of her personality that made it fun to be around her. As a talent, I think she’s missed because she was unique and a true triple threat. She could sing, dance, and her acting was starting to take off.

I’m glad for the memories I have and the time we got to spend together, but I miss my friend.

Rest In Peace and Power Baby Girl.

    here’s a question…

    why the fuck is CNN talking to missy? sometimes i wish these american news/media outlets would stay out of our affairs.

    aaliyah was an angel, though. not to distract too much from the matter at hand. i read dame dash talking to billboard the other day about her. smh…

    she was sexy but had such grace and class. just this respectability about her that niggas couldnt help but speak carefully about.
