🔁 via @sonyasspotlight: “Hard to believe it’s been 17 years since we lost #Aaliyah. I met her at the #SoulTrainAwards in #LosAngeles in the late 90s, and we took this photo together! 💗💗 I had followed her growth as an artist from the start of her singing career. She had such a #SweetVoice and a sweet spirit. After listening to an old tape just today of a past #StevieWonder interview, Stevie said he loved Aaliyah’s voice too. “I was in love with the voice of #Aaliyah,” he said. #🎶 #RestInHeaven #RIP#Aaliyah #ThrowbackThursday #Aaliyah#SonyaJenkins” | Thank you so much for sharing! 🙏🏽💚

Via @photoham: “Black History Month 2014 - On day 19 of BHM… remembering Aaliyah. I knew she was a talented singer, but sky seemed to be the limit for her after the movie Romeo Must Die. What a tragedy. I remember this Soul Train Awards, but I forgot about this image. Just scanned with the Nikon Coolscan. So much history in the film archives! #blackhistory” | Thank you once again for sharing! And thanks to @weloveaaliyahhaughton for the tag! :o)
