In Honour Of Talented Singer Aaliyah, Today Would Have Been Her 37th Birthday

This is in honor of the beautiful and talented star Aaliyah, who would have turned 37 today. While her life was tragically cut short in a plane crash at age 22, she managed to fit a long and successful career into her young years. Blackground Records signed the star at just 12 years old, and she released her debut album, Age Ain’t Nothing But a Number, two years later.

She went on to produce two more albums, One in a Million in 1996 and the posthumously released Aaliyah in 2001, which debuted at number two on the Billboard 200. The singer also had a started a film career, acting in the thriller Romeo Must Die andQueen of the Damned, which premiered after her death. She was scheduled to film for the sequels of The Matrix.
