Happy Birthday Aaliyah!! The beautiful R&B singer would have been 37 years old today. Its been almost 15 years since we lost Aaliyah to a plane crash back in 2001. Although she is no longer with us, her legacy still lives on through music. With the help of many artist such as Timbaland, who was a close friend of Aaliyah’s and Drake, Aaliyah’s voice will never be forgotten.
