: Last week MediaTakeOut.com told you that R&B singer Ciara is trying to record a duet with deceased R&B great Aaliyah (using samples from unreleased tracks). Not to be outdone, it now appears like Beyonce Knowles will be working with the legendary singer also.
But instead of doing a duet with Aaliyah, Beyonce plans on remaking one of her most popular songs - One In A Million. According to an industry insider, Beyonce's camp are waiting to get the thumbs up from Aaliyah's estate before they move forward.
The insider explained to MediaTakeOut.com, "[Beyonce] is looking to honor Aaliyah with the remake. If [Aaliyah's] family doesn't want it done, then it won't be done."
Beyonce honey.. Please don't go there! Please let my girl Aaliyah rest in peace without having you RIDE on her fame. Let it go!
Aaliyah was a better performer than you and she looked 10x better than you ever will on your best day.
Go tumble down some steps somewhere and let her rest in peace!!
We love you Aaliyah!
WTF!!!!If she dont go sit her tired azz down somewhere, as if twistin her "hips" wasnt good enough...please little girl, do not try to go there on Aaliyah and why now..if she was supposedly someone DC loved sooooooo much when they 1st came out, why didnt all you guys "Honor" her Loooooooong time ago? MTO, i hope this is some Grade A blasphemy..again because this trifle hoe is played out like that [EXPLETIVE] Spam people USED to eat!!!!! (loser says what????)
MTO know they be jackin'. First Ciara doing a duet with her now Beyonce. I know ya'll jackin about both of em. And i just wanna make one more thing clear for Aaliyah stans. Even if the Ciara/Beyonce stories are true, stop ridin Aaliyah joc. Aaliyah was not even that famous till after she died. When she was alive i remember people talked about her like a dog. Then as soon as she died she was the most talented singer ever, get real. She didnt win that many awards and her albums didnt do that well. Beyonce and Ciara are world wide known at a higher level than Aaliyah was. STop jocin her. let her rest in peace if you a true fan.
I agree with fly girl..She is going to over sing it, It's a bad idea for Ciara to do duets as well... Just let the girl rest! I don't wan any imitations or do overs. One in a million was just fine.. It's a classic! Chill out Bey and go on a vacation for awhile. You've made enough money! Let us miss you....
Aaliyah IS BETTER THAN BITCHONCE.
What does Beyonce mean anyways:- Fake slut who cares more what the mainstream think is beautiful so they bleach their skin to make themselves lighter.
Atleast, Aaliyah's name means something and is not made up.
Aaliyah 4 Ever. RIP Aaliyah, RIP Aaliyah!
Beyonce Hoes, go away u fake ass white wannabe pop singing bitch
Its funny because Beyonce Stans were bashing Ciara because of a rumor like this. I can wait to see them all like "Beyonce will be so good!"
I doubt the Haughtons would let a slut sing an Aaliyah song Or , Beyonce would most probably steal it and sing it and go to the mainstream and feed them rubbish and tell them that One in a million IS A BEYONCE song and that she wrote ALL of it.
Bitchonce get a life and go perform naked in Malaysia so your white wannabe ass can get whipped[SPAM]!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
RIP Aaliyah
YALL BE HATIN ON BEYONCE,, MAJORLY.. HATERS NEVER PROSPER i AM A BEYONCE FAN AND THIS NEWS IS NOT TRU .. HELLO WE ARE ON MTO... BUT IF SHE DID SHE WOULD KILL IT AND ALL YOU HAMS WOULD BE CHANTING TO THE NEW RENDTION...
HATE ON BEYONCE ALL YOU WANT BUT WHO IS OUT RIGHT NW BETTER THAN B.. WHO DOING IT BETTER THAN HER KNOW ONE..
SO ALL YOU HAMS .. CAN WE SAY... BEYONCE IS THE BADDEST.. AND YOU CANT BE MAD BECUASE YOU SLORES AINT HER..
NOW IN THAT ORDER...PLEASE QUIT HATIN ON MY GIRL
PLEASE AND THANKS
BEYONCE FOREVER.... GOTTA CHECK THIS CHICKS CAUSE YOU KNOW THEY GONE BLOCK WHILE I TAKE THESE FLICKS.. TAKE A PICTURE..POSE FOR THE CAMERA NOW.. SAY CHEESE BEYONCE IS HERE TO STAY
OKAY NOW I LIKE BOTH CIARA AND BEYONCE BUT I THINK MATTHEW IS TAKING IT A LITTLE BIT FAR WITH THIS ONE.
CIARA IS PLANNING ON SINGING A DUET WITH SOME OF AALIYAH'S UNRELEASED TRACKS. BUT FOR THIS BROAD TO REMAKE ONE IN A MILLION? ? AALIYAH WAS ONE IN A MILLION AND THAT IS SOMETHING BEYONCE WILL NEVER BE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I REMEMBER WHERE I WAS AT WHEN SHE WAS PRONOUNCED DEAD. I WAS AT THE CLUB AND OF COURSE IT WAS JUMPING BUT THEY SAID AALIYAH WAS INVOLVED IN A PLANE CRASH AND THEN THEY CAME BACK ABOUT 30-45 MINUTES LATER AND SAID SHE WAS DEAD. THE MOOD IN THE WHOLE CLUB CHANGED. IT SEEMED LIKE THE CLUB CHANGED TO A WAKE. IT WAS SAD! ! MEN AND WOMEN ALIKE WERE CLEARLY UPSET AND DEVASTATED ! !
R.I.P. AALIYAH YOU ARE MISSED ! ! !
BEYONCE GO SIT DOWN !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
OKAY now I'm really PISSED OFF!!! I was already MAD that Ciara had the nerve to think she was good enough to do an AAliyah song, now even though Beyonce can actually sing, I still don't want to hear her either!!!! Aaliyah's voice is beautiful and her songs are classics and we don't want to hear anyone else sing her songs but her! I am still an Aaliyah fan and I think these other female artists are just trying to make a buck. Leave Aaliyah alone b/c no matter who you are :Can't-Sing-A-Lick Ciara or Please-Sit-Down-Somewhere Beyonce, you still will never match up to the admiration Aaliyah fans had for her.
PLEASE LEAVE AALIYAH'S SONG ALONE!!!!!!!!!!!! Beyonce is always over singing something and quite frankly I don't think she can hit them high notes like Aaliyah. Leave the song alone, the song is wonderful the way it is we would like to remember Aaliyah when we hear that song not Beyonce trying to sing it

Well Aaliyah was a very good artist and performer but Beyonce is Great!
B doesnt need to ride on anyone's fame cause she famous in her own right.
I think it would be good to pay tribute to Aaliyah in order to show her that here on earth she is still missed and loved therefore i dont see anything wrong with B singin one her songs!
todabeyoncehaters, Hahahahhahahaha. Typical Beyonce Stan cant put a simple sentence together and are all non-ambitious.
I have ambitions in life, so I cant waste my time worshipping a fake ass brand.
I would rather live in a hole than hear a Beyonce Commerical about her new line of Cheeses she has out.
Kudos to whoever said, "Beyonce sit your ass down". If she does Aaliyah's song she needs to say goodbye to her career because thats just going overboard, especially when Ciara plans to do it. Ciara is atleast doing a duet, which would serve as a tribute. For Bey to try to do the song "One in A Million" it will be like a slap in the face! She's going to piss alot of Aaliyah fans off. It's just too soon.
greattimes,
Get a life. How can you have that much animosity towards a person you don't even know you green-eyed monster? Beyonce don;t care what you think. If you are not a fan then you don't put money in her pocket and thus don't affect her life. She made $100 mil this year & is brushing you haters off all the way to the bank. Like she said in Uprgrade U- Why u think they all mad at me?
Aaliyah was a young girl and R.Kelly took advantage of her. That kind of thing happens all the time in the business, look at Weezy and Baby.
Beyonce is a very beautiful and talented musician, but she IS OVEREXPOSED. I really think that this is going to backfire if she doesn't chill.
Anyway she ain't even been dead for 10 years, so I DO NOT think that this is appropriate.
I'm sitting here shaking my head. If this story is true, then I truly have lost what little respect I had for Beyonce. And trust me....it was VERY LITTLE RESPECT I had.
Let's see,
She got snubbed at every award show for the movie Dreamgirls. Gee, that must have made her feel like an azz. So, not to be outdone, she re-releases her B-Day album, and upon releasing it a second time, she releases damn near every song off the album, AND, has about 20 damn videos for all of them on MTV. Now, she knows that most of her fans were once Aaliyah fans, and only converted to Beyonce-ism only after her death....therefore, she knows Aaliyah fans will love Ciara doing the duet. And, like MTO said, Beyonce refuses to be outdone. She is truly pathetic!
Still trying to rile the people up, eh MTO? CTFU
She's a gossip, she'll tell your business, she knows the business, she'll cuss yo azz out and invite you back for dinner... she's a mean ole beyotch... she's Miss Pearl!

MissJNS Greattimes
I don't know what ethnic background or whatever... I just feel like you guys are really being to hard on Beyonce! I'm a very big fan and I don't agree with her remaking that song at all! But to degrade her and call her all types of names like you personally know her, is down right F'd up...Beyonce is over exposed and all but the girl got talen and you are real live haters to deny that! She shows her azz off and look good doing...And your probably secretly wishing you could do the things she do. I'm not trying to down talk anyone but damn enough is enough... Because 9x's out of 10. If this was your career... You would do the same thing she's doing to stay on top! This is a competitve industry and I don't care what skin color she is, she's stil young black rich and beautiful, and a helluva entertainer. You should re think the things you guys say! Because she really don't care, but if you were in her shoes, how would you portray your career. You can't knock a hard worker! Or a go getter for that matter PEACE....
GOD YALL PEOPLE ARE SOME FUCCIN MISERABLE HATERS FORREAL[EXPLETIVE] BETTA B GLAD BLACK WOMEN HAVE THE POWER AND THE RIGHTS THEY DO TO BE SUCCESSFUL SO SHES PAYING HOMAGE TO A FELLOW BLACK WOMAN WHAT IS THE PROBLEM YALL SO DAMN BITTER AND STEREOTYPICAL......JUST ANGRY BLACK FOLK LOL..DONT HATE CAUSE SHE CAME AND TOOK THE INDUSTRY BY STORM SHES A HARDWORKING TALENTED WOMAN SHE DESERVES THE SUCCESS AND PRAISE SHE GETS LETS B REAL HOW MUCH REAL TALENT IS OUT THERE ALL THESE STUDIO SINGERS WE GOT THESE DAYS GET A CLUE AND GET YALL DAMM LIVES TOGETHER CAUSE ITS OBVIOUS SOMETHINGS WRONG YALL GOTTA HATE SO MUCH FOR NO VALID REASON AND NO IM NOT A BEYONCE STAN IM JUST SPEAKIN THA TRUTH EVERY RACE STICKS TOGETHER IN EVERYTHING THEY DO EXEPT FOR BLACKS YALL SO FOOLISH
ok..IF this is true I am upset!
Beyonce is sooo oversaturated. Remaking this song would be a mistake.
Aaliyah was beautiful and classy. I'm no Beyonce hater but she doesn't have half as much class in her whole body as Aaliyah had in her pinky finger. lmao.
Aaliyah sang that song perfectly. Noone will sing it better.
Beyonce needs to fall back and take a two year vacation.
I'm surprised that the Knowles camp is even asking permission. they're probably gonna steal the song anyway. That's Beyonce's expertise.
What happened to being original?
Why are we hating. All I could think of when I pulled this page up was where is the picture. But I have mixxed feeling on that song for Bey. I think she will sing it strong but I think aaliyah style was way to different for her to pull it off. I guess we will have to see.
www.myspace.com/daurbanundergroundz www.entertainmentundergr oundmag.com
beyonce and her family are some sick [EXPLETIVE]. who would think of something like this. they want beyonce to be everything. dont touch that damn song you high squealin bitch that song is a classic and you wont do it justice at all. you need to sit your fat funky stankin ass down somewhere because you have gone too far. even if her family gives you permission, and i pray they dont, how do we really know how aaliyah feels about it. beyonce is a sick delusional bitch who is far from humble. she wants to take everything everyone else has worked for. i have never wished something bad on someone before, but i seriously hope beyonce goes away and i dont care in which manner she does it. i hate that fat bitch. dont touch aaliyahs music is crazy bitch.
It will be nice.........BUT SHE DID OVER SING JUSTIN'S UNTIL THE END OF THE TIME....at the AAAWWWW OOO. She wailed at that part which ruined it for me. She didn't any depth to that song. someone like brandy or even kelly rowland would have been better and mariah's airy textured voice would have just plain killed it!!But even if she does do it well....its AALIYAH'S SONG!!!! Aaliyah marked herself all over that song so that no one else could sing it.
beyonce always use "paying homage" and doing a tribute, but in reality she's just a copy catting bitch who has run outta ideas. she is not original at all, now she's trying to steal from aaliyah and call it a tribute. bitch please. i hate your ass and i hope you drop outta site real fast. you have seriously gotten on everyones nerves overrated stanky ass bitch. how dare you even think about stealin from aaliyah, she might be deceased, but her fans are steal alive, and we will not support that track if you record hoe. you unimaginative bitch.
HELL FCUKIN NO!!!!!!!!!
OKAY I GREW UP ON AALIYAH... I'LL NVR FORGET THAT AUGUST NIGHT WHEN MY BROTHER BROKE THE NEWS THAT AALIYAH WAS KILLED IN A PLANE CRASH. TO ME AALIYAH WAS THE EPITOME OF CLASS, GRACE, AND STYLE.. AND FOR BEYONCE TRY AND MESS WITH HER SONG? NEVER IN A MILLION YEARS COULD SHE DO IT JUSTICE.
I DIDNT REALLY LIKE HER VERSION OF WISHING ON A STAR, THE CLOSER I GET TO YOU OR HER REMIX OF UNTIL THE END OF TIME...BUT ONE IN A MILLION?? THAT'S AALIYAH'S SONG ALWAYS WILL BE...
Honestly I just don't believe that Aaliyah has been deceased long enough for them to start the remakes, I mean let the woman rest for awhile, you know what I would like to see even though she's not dead, I would like to see Beyonce do some Donna Summer stuff! I know call me old but if some of you can remember Donna! in my opinion that's the closese match
@ Mismyamoe
i agree i believe she hasnt been gone long enough for remakes..Now i feel ciara would do a good job. For some reason i would love to see Ciara channel Aaliyah because it would feel like old times plus a lot of people see her on that same path so i dont see a problem with her but not taking anything away from beyonce but she really needs to sitt down before she burns herself out.
One more thing I think some of you are a little over the top with the name calling, I mean Aaliyah very talented, Beyonce talented as well, the woman was trained almost her whole life to be a screen image, bigger than life, now that she's there, think about what else does she know?? I love beyonce, and to be honest I know you guys say she's overexposed but if you really read some interviews, and peep game from what I hear she's really VERY humble and down to earth one of the nicest stars out there from what I hear
Beyonce Lopez better NOT touch that song!! I am really getting tired of her a$$! Aaliyah was one in a million not Beyonce aka Tina Turner, Janet, Shakira, whoever the hell she thinks she is today. That heifer has an idenity crisis! For the people (THADONE)on here talking about Aaliyah wasn't that famous. Aaliyah was before her time. Her videos are classic and are right up there if not better than the videos of today. I can't turn on my radio without hearing an Aaliyah song and still seeing her videos. People go crazy at concerts and anywhere when her music is played, white and black people. She acted her a$$ off in two major movies that were #1 at the box office and that's not including the several that she signed on for (Matrix 2, Matrix 3, Honey, Sparkle etc). Beyonce has been in several movies and can't act her a$$ out of a paper bag. If Aaliyah was still alive she will be right up there too! So she had all the talent, drive, and potential. Her life was cut way too short.So don't you be a hater and try to deny that FACT!! Beyonce fans act like she has been the $hit since she came out. DC's first album didn't even sell but you got Beyonce like she has been all that since day 1 and half you probably didn't pay her no attention until she started shaking her a$$ around wearing 10 pound weave. Aaliyah was also more famous than Ciara before she died. Ciara will never be on the level of Aaliyah. Nobody is smooth like Aaliyah. If Aaliyah wasn't famous they would have blew her off when she died. It was broadcast across every channel including CNN. Aaliyah has an undying following of fans. So all Beyonce fans go mind your d@mn business and leave this for TRUE Aaliyah fans to discuss! And to use Beyonce fan's favorite quote. Why don't you all STOP HATING!!!!
Ok i really tryed not to buy Ms. Asliyah was great at what she did but she is wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy wayyyyyyy wayyyyyyyywayyyyyyyy yyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyywa yyyyyyyyyyy wayyyyyyyyyy wayyyyyyyyy SUPER WAYYYY OVERATED LOL I MEAN SHE FELL OUT FOR 5YRS LOL NO ONE RECALLS THAT LOL JUST WHEN SHE WAS GETTIN HER SH*T BACK TOGETHER SHE PAST!!!! BUT COME ON BETWEEN THE TIME SHE CAME OUT WITH ONE IN A MILLION - I MISS YOU, REALLY PLEASE TELL ME WHAT DID SHE HAVE IN BETWEEN ASLIYAH HAD NO BODY AT ALL UP AND DOWN SHE WAS VERY PRETTY AND BEY COULD DANCE AND SING AROUNF HER AND DAY LOL , AND FOR THE STUPID PERSON TALKIN ABOUT AALIYAH WAS FU+KIN JAY ... GET YOUR INFO RIGHT JAY WAS LIKE HER BIG BRO, SHE WAS WITH dASH! LOL YOU PEOPLE KILL ME I AM WITH BEY ON THIS ONE SORRY
First of all, I wouldn't be shocked if Beyonce said I am making a children's album singing my favorite nursery rhymes featuring Mary had a Little Lamb the remix. And Beyonce fans will swear up and down it is the greatest $hit ever! If people knew their facts about Aaliyah like they think they do. She did not fall off for five years. She finished high school (a real high school with a 4.0 gpa.We know Beyonce dumb a$$ can't say that), did movies, worked on her album, and took a little thing called a break. Unlike many artists of today like Beyonce. Who think it's cool to put out an album every year because they scared of falling off. Artists back in that day waited years before they put out another project but stupid ass people of today don't know anything about that. Not falling off it's called go sit the hell down and take a breat hint: BEYONCE!
For all the people hating on Beyonce, just give her a damn break. If she wants to sing Aaliyah let her do it. It's not like Aaliyah is going to come back from the dead and haunt B. The only people that should be offended by this is Aaliyah's family and if they're not, then so be it. You black people are just jealous that you can't have it like B.
And for all you sorry asses that are saying B should sit her fast ass down, I think that you should all do the same.
ABSOLUTELY NOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I like Beyonce' and all, but this is going too far. I wouldn't even want Ciara using Aaliyah's voice on her songs. Let Aaliyah be Aaliyah and lets honor her memory a different way. Beyonce in my opinion would take the spot light off of what the meaning behind it what it was actually meant for HONORING AALIYAH. I am a huge fan of Aaliyah and I would not want too see this happen.
I just think there both great aaliyah was great at what she did becuz she has fans rite??? and bey is just as great becuz she has her fans to i mean everyone is NOT going to love Bey, i am sure she kno that also it just comes with the job, and as great as aaliyah was everyone wasn't going to love her , SO I JUST FEEL IT'S STUPID TO FIGHT ABOUT WHO WAS BETTER AND WHOM LOOK BETTER BECUZ WHATS IMPORTANT IS THAT AALIYAH DID HER THING NOW SHE IS LEAVIN IT TO BEY AND CC AND EVERYONE ELSE TO KEEP IT GOIN GAVE US SOMTHING WE CAN RELATE TO OUR MAKE US THINK , OUR MAKE US FALL IN LOVE ,,,, PEOPLE HAVE WAYS OF MAKING A BIG DEAL OUTTA SOMTHIN SO SMALL I THINK THATS WHAT WE AER DOIN HERE
@ foxyfoxy
a big THANK YOU!!!
Its not that we're hatin' on Beyonce - I'm happy for her new home, and everything that she's accompolished at a young age. But there comes a time when you have to say, okay, let me step back a little bit and take the time to enjoy what God has blessed me with. You don't have to be every where every damn time and trying to be involved with every damn project that Hollywood has to offer. Just be easy, Bey. We know you ain't going no where, no time soon but will it kill you if you were to take a break from the spot light every once in a damn while?
I have listened to AALIYAH's music and Beyonce's. There is no comparing. AALIYAH has heart. Beyonce is whorish. Never had I Said I'd like to hear Beyonce coo out one of AALIYAH's hits. If she wants to do something she should think originality. B original not likely. Like when she and Jz stole TuPac'S hit girlfriend from toni braxton. Honestly we listeners have never heard that girl put her heart into her songs(just her big ass booty). Nasty girl put some clothes on!! ha before you disgrace what ever specs of talent you claim to have. I listen to celebarties so when the truth comes out you know they lied and she is a liar. AALIYAH estate holders I plea with you don't do it. AALIYAH's music is what we have of her to state her as our PRINCESS. So many beautiful new babies has her name. This speaks for itself and thank God we are not all like B.
I ONLY WNAT TO SAY ONE MORE THING LOL AND THAT IS
(IGNORENCE IS BLISS LOL ) YOU PEOPLE KEEP SAYING LET HER RIP WHY DONT YALL TRY IT YOURSELF LOL I OUTTA HERE PEOPLE, LIVE LREAN AND LOVE, I JUST CAN'T UNDERSTAND HOW PEOPLE CAN HATE SOMEONE THEY DONT KNO, I JUST CAN'T UNDERSTAND IT LOL , THAN I REMEMBER WHERE WE ARE IN A WORLDLY PLACE LOL YALL STAY BLESSED AND BEY KEEP DOIN YA THING EVEN IF I AM THEY ONLY ON IN LINE TO GET THE HIT I'LL BE THERE WITH A SMILE :)
I don't hate Beyonce but thank god we all don't need to take off our clothes to make music. catch my drift. AALIYAH's died with our respect B can't beat that. Beyonce has shown less tact than Ciara. I am not a sheeple, B can't teach me anything and I don't love her. I am older than she maybe she could learn a few things from me. AALIYAH MISSY TIMBERLAND RKELLY were all about to break grounds that's why it seems she died too early. If B wanted to revive one of AALIYAH's songs she should have thought of it before she showed off all her goodies. I can't repect that. Ciara came out saying not my goodies, get it. It's not what you do but how you do it. When people start to change the world we lose them like Tupac and others. Whoremongers, flashy, materialistic people are around here to distract us from the truth.
Most of the comments on MTO are just a bunch of haters but I do have to agree with this one. I'm not feeling anyone trying to capitalize off of Aaliyah or her legacy. One in a Million was ground-breaking and everyone switched up their style after Aaliyah came out with it. I think that some things are better left alone. That song is a way for us to remember her and I think that it is too soon to remake it. I like Beyonce, but she needs to do what Leonardo DiCaprio did after Titanic hit it big: he sat his silly as* down to avoid overexposure.
I frankly am tired of Bey. Liked her back in the early days of DC..bills, bills but that was awhle back. Now we have the diva Bey and she is WAY OVEREXPOSED!!! every freaking award show there she is,commericals, Oprah idolizes her, everything she does with J is on the news, who cares? she is making her money and such, good for her but there is such a thing as overdoing it. You can make the public get sick of seeing your face everywhere and thats where I am. Comparing her to the likes of tina turner and such,come on. She is good at showing her azz and overdoing it. Her acting is medicore and if this is true bout doing Aaliyah's song, this is the worst news of the day. Bey go sit your azz down somewhere, you're way overexposed in all areas and I have no interest in anything you attempt to do. Even Jennifer Hudson is more talented than you and she came via Americal Idol way. She is ultra talented and can sing off the mountain top.
Yeah I'm tending to agree with some of the non-haters on here. I loved Aaliyah to the core, but why do we have a tendency to make superhumans out of some people when they die?
First of all, to imply that no one can sing a song better than Aaliyah is just speaking on emotion because she's gone. Keeping it real, Aaliyah did not have a golden voice. She had a very sweet and soft voice. She never brought a house down just on vocals. She was a great performer with a pretty & soft voice... that is all. Stop making Aaliyah into Aretha Franklin, just because she's not here. And to make it seem like it's a smack in the face, just because someone remakes a song?
Ooooh, so then I guess Aaliyah should've never recorded "At Your Best (You Are Love)", the Isley Brothers remake. Stop looking for new reasons to hate Beyonce, who CAN SING for goodness sakes, man. How does anybody know it won't be a tribute dedicated TO Aaliyah. Did we think about that? Of course not. Cuz then, that doesn't give you more reason to stay negative on Bee. Get a grip, geez man.

THANK YOU
But Its like Biggie Said!
Your Nobody Until Somebody Kills You!!!
She was good but she was far from Whitney her damn self. Where was all this support when We Need A Resolution was out!!!Yeah they just want to hate on Beyonce, becuz this shyt aint even a fact! Just becuz Timbaland is workin with her dont mean she's gonna remake an AAliyah song! Did Nelly Furtado? NO!!! Did Keri Hilson??? NO!!! And besides Bey is on Tour right now overseas!!! This story is not real!!!
DAMN BEYONCE, SHE JUST GOT SUED FOR TRYING TO REMAKE SOMEBODY ELSE AND WHEN SHE DID REMAKE SOMEBODY SONG THE ORIGINAL ARTIST SAID SHE DIDN'T SOUND GOOD AT ALL. SO JUST KEEP WRITING THOSE RADIO-AIR PLAY SONG THAT WILL PLAY-OUT IN TWO WEEKS. I'M NOT HATING BUT BEYONCE HAS WON AWARDS FOR "WRITING SONGS" SO SHE CAN LET AALIYAH STAY A GOOD SONG.
Out of all songs why "One in a Million"?
I mean doesnt everybody see the irony of that? Aaliyah was one in a million and she could never be replaced. For ANYONE to remake that specific song with that specific title is like a slap in the face. Its especially worse that its Beyonce who wants to remake the song to be her own. Beyonce is known to be a glory hog. Yes she SOUND humble in her interviews but she is soo transparent to me. The type who is full of themselves but they try to act so humble to try to hide the truth. Like Heidi from the Hills.. Transparent.
And Foxy u are soo right. Taking a break to actually be creative and let the creative juices flow is NOT falling off. Any artist w/ inspiration knows it dont take no two weeks to do something with substance. Great art takes time to create. Bey needs a lonng break...
BklynRogue
COME ON, Was she on some OD Janet Jackson Control Sales, when she was alive! NO! She was HOT dont get it fukked up, she was doing her thing but she was just startin to get tha Mainstream love right before she died! She was Sorta like Selena!
nothingbutlove
OK, All I'm sayin is I dont even think its True!
True C,
But come on man, she had platinum shyt going on for her since '94 remember when we were kids she was already doing Billboard chart hits like "Age Ain't Nuthin But A Number" and "Back & Forth" then she REALLY GOT BIG with "Are You That Somebody"
I mean yeah she blew up even more after she died, but you can't deny she was a big success pre-death tho.
BUT TRUST...if Aaliyah was still alive, I doubt Beyonce would be a big a star as she is now. And we damn sure know she wouldn't have Jay-Z cuz BabyGirl was effin with him too! lol
BklynRogue
Did I say she didnt? For that Try Again song she got her first MTV Award 2001! She won 2 that night! She & her career was just really startin to pop off! Thats what I'm tryna say she just startin to get the Mainstream Love but I aint shytin on Back & Forth, Four Page Letter, Come Over and even this song! But dont make it seem like she was OD Celine Don with her sales and her voice!!! LOL!!! Becuz At that time DC was puttin up like 8 Million My dude!!! S Bey was getin it in even when Baby Girl was around! Ya dig!!! LMAO!
But sinc everone believes MTO, according to Wikipedia Beyonce aint doin this song but they gonna do some sorta Biggie Duets with Baby Girl!
We must face it some of believe we may have the next AALIYAH in our own families. We are grooming our little girls, cause for a fact there will be a movie of her life story. Maybe the protrayer has not be born yet or She is an ordinary person waiting to be the discovered. If it is meant the TIMING will be right. Until then let us keep the sanctidy of her name JUST THE WAY IT WAS WHEN SHE PASSED ON AGREE?
LOL @ C
Now I see where you coming from...yeah I agree she was on her way to being BIG MAINSTREAM (she was gonna be in the Matrix movies, Hollyword offers etc.) and then she died. BUT YOU ARE SO HATING HOMIE!! LOL.
Aaliyah was on PLATINUM STATUS homie! She had platinum records while Beyonce and her backup singers (Destiny's Child) was doing Opening Acts for Britney Spears & Christina Aguilera!! That's all I'm sayin!
And I so dont' trust MTO or Wikipedia, cuz they are some bi-polar ass sites lol.
I just don't get it. Why is there so much hostility towards Beyonce when all she does is work hard? The girl is everywhere because the people that really own the "big" businesses want her there. Most people can't say that they wouldn't do the same thing if they were in that position. I see nothing wrong with her working hard while she can. If she wants to pay a tribute, what's wrong with that? For all we know, Aaliyah might've welcomed the idea. There's nothing wrong with not wanting to hear Beyonce do Aaliyah's song, but if you don't want to hear it then don't listen to it. (If it happens)
@C
You seem to be obsessed with the mainstream, but you are right Beyonce (Destiny's Child) had Mainstream success before Aaliyah, but that is because DC was controlled by a MAINSTREAM label.
Aaliyah was the step grandaughter of the owner of her label and most probably let her release whatever she wanted to release even if it did not have any pop appeal
Why Doesn't she remake herself into someone who is "Original".... That would be the most impressive thing she could do! Honestly. I REALLY HOPE MTO IS MAKING THIS UP!
WE DO NOT WANT TO HEAR BEYONCE REMAKING OR SWAG BITING AALIYAH!!!! I LET YALL CALL IT ON THAT 1. CAN'T SHE REST IN PEACE! WHOS IDEA IS THIS??? IF I WANTED TO SEE BEYONCE(WHICH I DON'T) HOPEFULLY IT WOULD BE HER STARRING AS HER SELF ON AN ALBUM WITHOUT COPYING OTHER PEOPLE BECAUSE I HAVE YET TO SEE HER W/O BITING SOMEONE ON SOMETHING!
Aaliyah can't do a duet with nobody she is dead. If she was alive would she really want her fans to buy this I don't think she would. LMAO
Beyonce just lucked up .we all (Aaliyah fans) lost that Aaliyah died before she blew up because if she didn't we wouldn't have to see this nightmare of unoriginality called Beyonce.
greattimes
Its not that but by the reaction of people on here you would have sworn she was bigger than Whitney! Thats How I see it! The way people dog a star Janet & Ciara, but make it seem like AALIYAH was the greatest vocalist becuz she past! Thats a bit shady dont you think!
nothingbutlove
I love Baby Girl but damn, I'm startin to think Beyonce killed by the way ya'll reacted to a "rumor" LOL DAMN LOL!!!
Okay!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Seriously people, how far does Beyonce have to go before yall admit that she is a copycatting, move stealing snake who feels threatened by Rihanna and Ciara and MUST COPY EVERYTHING THEY DO?!?!?!?!?
I wont' get on the whole Beyonce vs. Rihanna since this post isn't about Rihanna. But here is a timeline of Beyonce's history of copying EVERYTHING Ciara does.
Ciara came out with "Goodies", an instant hit and high-impact dance video. Beyonce and her back-up came out with "Lose My Breath" and for the first time, did a high-impact dance video.
Ciara popularized that gyrating, slow-grind hip roll in "Goodies" Beyonce has been rolling those rolls of hers ever since.
Ciara climbed on that whip in the video for "Oh". Beyonce had Kelly stretch across a Porsche in "Cater to You".
Ciara mastered her Matrix in "Goodies" and her backbend in "1,2 Step". It took Beyonce's fat ass a whole lot of practice, but by "Check On It", she finally copied it.
Before the "So What" video, Ciara dyed her hair black. Beyonce, who has NEVER worn black hair, dyed her hair black.
In "So What", Ciara does alot of chest popping and fisting the air to the beat of the music. Beyonce stole those moves for "Deja Vu."
In the song "Get Up", Ciara's says "ring the alarm, the club is jumpin' now, so get up!!!" Beyonce copied and made a whole damn song from that one sentence and named it what? "Ring the Alarm".
In "Promise" Ciara rocked an extra big hooded all-black sweatsuit. A few weeks later, Beyonce rocked the same one with a black bandana on her face for a performance.
In "Like a Boy", Ciara posed as two individuals, her feminine, female self and a male counterpart. Beyonce stole the ENTIRE concept for "Upgrade U".
In "Like a Boy", Ciara sat in a king's style chair with a huge iced pinky ring. In "Upgrade U", Beyonce sat in the same type of chair and rocked the same ring in between her teeth.
In "Like a Boy", Ciara did her slick moves in an all-white babydoll dress with colored heels. In "Upgrade U", Beyonce danced, if that's what you want to call those terrible moves, wearing an all-white dress-style blouse and colored heels.
Ciara is set to record a duet with Aaliyah using, previously unreleased tracks. Beyonce is now going to record Aaliyah's hit single "One in a Million".
Truth is truth. And even if you're a die-hard Beyonce fan, these examples are factual and did happen. Beyonce did all these things AFTER Ciara did them. Even if you are infatuated and obsessed and think that Beyonce is better than Ciara and just completely love her to death, it might be hard to admit it, but you have to know that she truly does copy this girl. If this timeline and Beyonce remaking this Aaliyah song didn't make you see, nothing will. You have truly fallen into the hype and relinquished power over your own mind.
do these bitches think that tryna swaggerjack aaliyah is gon put them in the same category with her? it aint. aaliyah was "one in a million" & thats real. i like beyonce & ciara but they need to quit tryna steal this womans flame. do you beyonce. do you ciara. quit tryna recreate aaliyah. its been done.
First of all, why does everyone act like if B remakes this song Aaliyahs version is gonna dissapear or something? Artist remake songs all the time and you dont hear any one complaining. Secondly, I would bet that 99% of the people who are so upset are females and they probably never even owned an Aaliyah CD. They are so damn mad at B cause shes pretty, talented and so successful. I dont think shes overexposed at all, if people were tired of her why is she selling out every concert all over the world. For the people who are tired, dont support her. I am a big fan of hers and Ive been to every concert shes had in Houston and she does a damn good job. And for someone to dislike someone so much why take so much time out to make a comment about that person let alone argue about it.This is why shes hot (GO B). My advice: next time B comes to your city put on a disquise and go enjoy the show. @foxyfoxy she cant get a break cause shes in high demand
iF YOU FEEL SOMEONE IS LIKE FAMILY TO YOU,LIKE THEY NEVER DID ANY HARM TO YOU, YOU WOULD PUT THEM OVER ALL OTHERS. LIKE IF A FRIEND DIED YOU WILL FEEL THE LOST LIKE THEY WERE YOUR OWN BROTHER. HER DEATH WAS A TRADGEDY THAT MEANS WE ALL FELT IT AND IT WAS A GAINT WAKE UP CALL. WOULD YOU LIKE TO DIE LIKE THAT NOOO! NIEHTER WOULD ANY OF US. YES SHE IS BIGGER THAN THE OTHERS. SHE IS LIKE A PIONEER. LIKE OUR GRANDPARENTS THEY AREN'T FAMOUS BUT WE HURT WE THEY DIE AND NO ONE CAN DO IT LIKE BIG MA. THAT IS PROBABLY WHY SHE LEFT US EARLY CAUSE ALL THE OTHER STARS LIVED TO TARNISH THEIR NAMES BUT THIS YOUNG LADY DIED IN GOOD FAITH. ALSO SHE TOOK OF FOUR YEARS OR SO TO FINISH HIGH SCHOOL AND SHE DID RECEIVE STRAIGHT A'S. WHICH STARLITE OUT THERE CAN SAY THAT? INTELLIGENCE IS KEY
I swear some of y'all are too damn stupid. WTF is Bey gonna emake this track? You know deep down she ain't. Its just MTO trying to create controversy. I typed into google news and found no other site in the WORLD reporting on this, EXCEPT MTO. They're a bunch of liars. I only come on here for the odd laugh at how stupid their stories sound and to read the funny comments.
You know MTO need their DAILY feature on Beyonce and so came up with this. If we listened to them regarding Beyonce, she'd be pregnant now with 5 kids and would have broken p with Jay 698987459 times. I think I've made my point
People please get it together
Aaliyah was well respected and admired, a lot of people had a lot of nice things to say about the kind of person she was and that's what made her so special. Usually when im out shopping and they play one of her songs over the radio people , especially young girls are like there she is you can't but that kind of love. People stil remember and will always remember we lost someone very special. Beyonce and Ciara just dont have it sorry B&C fans im "A" all the way.
R.I.P Aaliyah
Nobodies Hating on Beyonce but the public is expressing on this blog that some of us are tired of her. Thats the disadvantage of being overexposed. Its an overwhelming majority that don't EVER want to see Her touch anything that has to do with Aaliyah. Does artist ever get played out anymore? Cause Beyonce isn't even cool anymore even if you thought she ever was. She is trying to get all of her money at one time because she know after this run, she has played her self out. Her fans need to stop getting mad because we are not all falling for the gimmick they are trying to pull with her.
greattimes
I think so to but people act like if she was still around se would get the same love! Which is a damn lie, becuz if she was still here they would probably dog her bad about her voice like they do Ciara, or on Rihanna's alleged relationsip with Jay-Z! Just becuz she past, they dot get so damn disrespectful, but I strongly believe that is she was still around she would get her "true" fans love but ge the haters sayin "she is a slut for Marrying R.Klly so young and being in pics all hugged up with Jay-Z, and dating Dame Dash"! But since she past away, no hard feelings...right? SMH!!! I Love her too, but I'm just sayin shyt people pretend to avoid becuz she passed away!!! But they do it to others!!! SMH!!!
I am LMAO for several reasons right now.
1) This is MTO for crying out loud. Do ya'll really believe the shyt that be on here? Majority of ya'll are dumb as hell for believing this with NO PROOF!
2) Aaliyah's fans are psychotic. RIP to Aaliyah but she is gone. Ya'll act like she's still alive. If Aaliyah was alive she would be getting hated on just like everybody else. And wasn't she whoring around with RKelly, Dame and Jay? Weren't Jay and Dame best friends? Oh but she was a perfect angel right? GTFOH! Aaliyah wasn't no where near perfect and she was not that huge when she died either.
IMO Beyonce is way more beautiful and talented and ya'll know she sings wayy better than Aaliyah and the only reason Aaliyah is put on a pedestal is b/c she's gone. (PEOPLE ONLY RESPECT THE DEAD AND NEVER THE LIVING)
"They don't respect u until you're gone" - that's a famous quote.
All I know is Beyonce is on top and she is ALIVE so ya'll Aaliyah stans need to accept that she is gone and stop trying to compare her to people who are ALIVE.
But RIP Aaliyah. She is probably rolling in her grave shaking her head at her fans acting crazy. Damn shame.
@C
I co-sign again. I does irritate me that these Aaloyah fans who claim to be fans since she first came out with "Back & Forth because they are lying and they are most probably the ones who dogged out Aaliyah in the first place when she was hugged up with Jay-Z. (btw, I have never had a bad thought about Miss Liyah)
RIP Aaliyah!!!
C I agree that' all I'm trying to say.
People only give Aaliyah all this praise b/c she's dead. If she were alive it would be a diff story she would be a slut whore and all these other names just like the other female artists.
I loved aaliyah too but her stans give her wayyy too much credit. She was no better than anybody else. SMH
greattimes
Some became fans because, if they express now the shyt they was feelin then for AAliyah, they scared that its a sin or something! People miss Tupac, but Ice-T still kept it real and said that he died because of his own stupidity! We all miss Aaliyah but now all of the disrespect people was talkin disappears now? Yeah some of them must be living in fear or something because not everyone was super Aalyiah when she was around!
I AGREE...................................
YOU PEOPLE ARE GIVING THIS CHILD TO MUCH CREDIT.............................
If she was alive IAM SURE SHE WOULD BE CALLED NAMES LIKE OVER RATED, BONY, FLAT CHESTED, NO BOOTY ETC,
Stop trying to put her on a pedal stool like she was the S*HIT...............because she WAS NOT........SHE PROB WAS A SLUT TO UNDER COVER @ 15 YEARS OLD GETTN MARRIED TO R KELLY AND SEXN DAMION DASH ETC..............
AND PLUS SHE COULD NOT DANCE..... CIARRA WOULD BLOW HER OUT THE WATER........4 REAL....
YOU ALL ALWAYS GETN MAD WHEN SOME ONE WANTS TO REMAKE SOMETHING...............
Dang let the gurl RIP and let the world MOVE ON AND MAKE REMAKES LIKE ALL THE RAPPERS AND SINGERS DO.............
Neither B or Aaliyah are Angels
Aaliyah had that mystic and sexyness that made you wanna know more about her
Aaliyah also had a prettier face and a waaaay better voice.
B just be looking like a warn out Tina Turner but she's pretty also
Aaliyah is just seen as more than a shaking booty B is just humping hound lol!!
LOL @ LevnUMesmerized and Foxyfoxy
Ya'll are definitely telling the TRUTH!!!!
Oh how I miss Babygirl .....The game hasn't been the same since...... RIP AALIYAH Beyonce needs to go somewhere- -anywhere and rest.......I dont even know who came up with THAT idea- - but its a TRAGEDY in the making....Dang B you can't come up with your own???? Please dont bother Aaliyah and her legacy..Please!!!!!
haterzsitdown I couldn't have said it better. I have been both an Aaliyah and Beyonce fan since day one but ya'll give Aaliyah too much credit. She was no different. She messed around with two best friends (jay and dame). I mean she was far from an angel but she made good music just like Bey.
If i had to choose it would be Bey b/c I think she sings wayy better and she is prettier than Aaliyah IMO besides Aaliyah and Ciara are more similar. They are both dancers but that's it. However Aaliyah sang wayy better than Ciara.
How do you all know if Beyonce didn't LOVE AALIYAH TOO, BEYONCE THROUGH THIS SONG IS BRINGING BACK THE SPIRIT OF AALIYAH..JUST WAIT AND SEE. BEYONCE IS PAYING TRIBUT TO AALEYAH.. I HOPE AALIYAH'S MOM GIVES THE OKAY, I KNOW FOR A FACT THAT IF SHE DOES BEYONCE WILL SING THIS SONG BEAUTIFUL IN THE SAME AJELIC VOICE AND SERVE THE MEMORY OF AALIYAH WELL. BEYONCE IS NOT TRYING TO OUTDO ANY BODY I THINK SHE IS SHOWING MUCH LOVE FOR AALIYAH AND HER SPIRIT.. GIVE BEYONCE SOME CREDIT. THIS IS DONE IN MEMORY OF AALIYAH SO THAT WE NEVER FORGET THIS BEAUTIFUL WOMEN THAT AALIYAH WAS...
some things aren't meant to be touched. for my 30th b'day i had one of my good friends (actually the father of my oldest daughter) make me a cd with songs from 95-96. those were the years i felt carefree and young. the first song i requested was "one in a million". it was one of those songs when you heard for the first time you knew it was gonna be a hit. i wasn't an aaliyah fan until "one on in a million"...
bey should leave this alone.
reggiebushgirl I love both Beyonce and Aaliyah but honey Beyonce clearly sings way better than Aaliyah. And this probably ain't true anyway b/c MTO be posting lies. Aaliyah left on top of her game and Beyonce is and has been on top of her game for years now so let them be. Everything happens for a reason. It was Aaliyah's time to go. Beyonce is still here for a reason.
haterzsitdown and c I completely agree with ya'll. People only respect Aaliyah b/c she's gone. If she was alive it would be a different story. Damn shame u gotta die to get respect.
H[SPAM]H[SPAM]H[SPAM]H[SPAM]H[SPAM]HAHAHAHAHH[SPAM]H[SPAM]H[SPAM]H[SPAM]H[SPAM]HH[SPAM]H[SPAM]HAHAH...SIGH......(CATCHES BREATH)......H[SPAM]H[SPAM]H[SPAM]H[SPAM]H[SPAM]H[SPAM]HAHAHAHAHAHh[SPAM]h[SPAM]hahaahahh[SPAM]h[SPAM]h[SPAM]hahahahahahaahh[SPAM]h[SPAM]H[SPAM]H[SPAM]H[SPAM]H[SPAM]HAHAHAH.......SUCK MY STANKY ANUS (LOL) TRICK AZZ MARKS!!!!!!!! you, ya maamie, ya paapie, beyonce, her whole crew, gay z, his whole crew, and anybody else thats mad cause Im not follower of BULL MALARKY!!!!! LOL. KICK ROX!!!! bey is ugly as hell in real life, like oh my god she is like so flippin whack. totally....and she like has nothing like nothing going for herself....she is totally depending on her management to buy her music and the low lifes that think she is a good person/artist/whatever. YOU'RE STUPID...... (LOSER SAYS WHAT?)
When will this buffoonery end?? Whatever happened to ORIGINALITY??!! Thats one thing that Aaliyah had, that a MAJORITY of these so called r&b "artists" lack today. I can tolerate Beyonce a lot more than I can Ciara, but NEITHER ONE of them should be trying to remake an Aaliyah song, or anybody else's songs for that matter. I just think its a shame what music had come down to these days... Nobody wants to be original anymore. They're too afraid that they may flop, or their albums won't sell. Someone mentioned earlier about Aaliyah's albums not selling or her not winning any awards. One thing that I truly LOVED about Aaliyah, was that she did the kind of music she did because she WANTED to. She wasn't afraid to take risks with her music. I believe she knew that QUALITY is better than QUANTITY. It didn't matter if she didn't win awards, or sell 1 million records in a week. It was all about the MUSIC, and making CLASSIC, TIMELESS RECORDS. People have really lost sight of that. I think even if Aaliyah were still here, she wouldn't do a song with neither Beyonce or Ciara. She would've focused on HER music and perfecting HER craft.
Furthermore, I hope this isn't true. Nobody wants to hear Beyonce screaming, and yodeling over an Aaliyah track. That was NOT Aaliyah's style. Yes, Beyonce is a talented woman, but she has no business trying to remake any of Aaliyah's songs. Tribute or not, she needs not to do it, and I really hope the Haughton family doesn't ok this.
LMAO TO ALL THE IDIOTS COMPARING GREATNESS TO COMMERCIAL SUCCESS!!
So are we to say that Kanye is a better rapper than Rakim because he sold more platinum records than him ? PLease like my man KRS one said its all about MARKETING & PROMOTION
So for you saying that Beyonce was better bacuase she has more recors sales it dont mean a thing. Back before say 2000 R&B didnt get as widely recognized because it wasnt being marketed as the POP BULLSHYT that Beyonce's camp markets her crap. And the white american wasnt really aware of Black musicians who were doing more urban music. PLus DC came out as a commercial group w/ that NO NO NO no bubble gum song. Aaliyah came up at a time when R&B did NOT get the same recognition as say, Britney, Nsync etc.. If she came up NOW w/ all her hits trust her record sales would have blown B's out the water. And she was a better actress
Not to say that B isnt great at what she does (albeit mostly rump shakin & posing) Her voice is very powerful but she doenst know how to control her voice. But to say record sales & commercial success makes u better or more popular is incorrect.
U kids now a days are all about th flash & no substance. Just like Hip hop back when it was good and actually talked about issues. Now its all about image.. Most rappers today blow rappers out the water with their record sales but as meeger as the old school rappers record sales were, 90% of them were 1000 times better than ANYONE out right now!!
I meant to say that although most of the rappers out today blow the OLD SKOOL rappers out of the water with their record sales in comparison to their record sales back in say '91, it dont make them better rappers. It just means they are being packaged and marketed to appeal to the commercial audience AKA white america and that back in my day was considered SELLING OUT!
Same old posts, same stupid folks!! Bey need to leave "One In A Million" Alone!! Does that mean my attack is personal? No!! Have I ever met her? No! That song is so special to me because it solidified my love of Timbaland's music. I still remember hearing it in the 7th grade and almost making her have a wreck when I heard that beat in conjunction with her voice. I am not a Beyonce fan but I am a Timbaland fan. Their collaboration will be interesting. I thinks Bey's voice is a little too extra and her over Tim's beats may or may not work. However, Tim is a genius and I am sure that he can make it work. Hopefully, their work together will not have a One In A Million Remake come out of it. Aaliyah did that song just right! Bey already butchers Jill Scott in her concert, this will be another bad decision in my opinion.
Yeah I agree as much as I love Bee she would over sing the song fo sho. Cause Miss Aaliyah had that sultry soft voice in which Beyonce's voice is more powerful.
Some things need to be left alone....this is one of them. Let Liyah rest in peace....let all the female artists do a tribute and not just limit it to Bee. And Missy should direct the project.
Damn I miss Aaliyah...she was a true gem...a doll.
And what is with the Bey fans and all this Aaliyah name calling? Is that not the same stuff you all swear against when someone does it to Bey? We are all human and I what they do or did in their private lives is their affair. Let us all focus on the Music. Also, Aaliyah is no longer on this earth, so to try and compare her success with Beys makes no sense. Nobody is going to reach Bey's level anytime soon because other artist know when to sit the hell down!!
First off all yall Beyonce haters need to calm down cause it aint that damn deep. One I don't believe this for one minute. And secondly if there was anyone I would want to remake the song it would be "B" hell at least we know she can sing and wouldnt destroy the song because of lack of vocally ability! And third, I always find it funny how people hate on B and say that she's not letting anybody else get a chance, she is the only female artist we is constantly putting out music that people love to hear and obviously the fact that some 200+ people have replied to this post means that hear name just draws attention! And lastly, it amazes me that the same people who hate are the same ones who sing along and dance to her music when its on! "How you gone upgrade me, What higher than #1!"
Music lacks creativity. First Ciara and now Beyonce. I like both of them and I also like Aaliyah. However, they need to leave her songs alone. People are talking about how they want to "honor" her memory. That's crap. People are remaking her songs in order to get paid. Sure, these celebrities already has money, but there is no such thing as having too much money. If they want to honor Aaliyah's memory, then they should do so by leaving her music alone. Leave it the way she created it and let her rest in peace.
iF Aaliyah Fcuked Jay then she was truely a slore for sleeping with best friends.
THADON_09<--------U are so right. People use to shyt on Aliyah when she was alive. Saying she cant sing and she dances stiff and she's a whore. Then when she died everyone was putting their foot in their mouth. Black people are so
If Beyonce and Ciara decides to remake a couple of her songs I say go ahead becuz People Done forgot about Aaliyah who dont go on the MTO and it will do her family good becuase they'll get some more money
I know one thing some ignorant whores on here need to learn how to form a correct sentence, before voicing their retarded azz opinions.
Beyonce dumb as a box of pop rocks and i (done) forgot about Ciara already. I know one thing I damn sure wont be singing 1 2 step and Bills, bils, bills if one of those beaches died.
some of you just sound plain ignorant and are really showing your age.
i'm 28 and grew up with aaliyah's music. she was mature for her age and from the beginning, she separated herself from the pack. simply put, she was urban royalty. the mainstream knew about her. was she on the level of beyonce? no. but was she heading there, yes. on HER time. aaliyah understood the power of a break and growing as an artist. (which these "artists" nowadays need to take note from)
how is aaliyah a flop when her first album sold 2 million copies, her second album sold 3 million, and her third album sold gold (500,000+) in just a month BEFORE she died? of course her fame rose when she died, but to notion that she wouldn't have been big had she been alive is just stupid.
and if aaliyah were still alive, beyonce would still be doing her thing. they were both destined to be big.
all the hate needs to stop.
okay, first of all, aaliyah was a star in her own right. people say she wasnt a star before she died, but she sold more albums when she WAS ALIVE. SEE BELOW: AGE AINT NOTHIN BUT A NUMBER-DOUBLE PLATNUIM ONE IN A MILLION- TRIPLE PLATIMUM AALIYAH(THE ALBUM SHE DIED ON)-DOUBLE PLATINUM I CARE 4 U-PLATINUM aaliyah had decent succes, but she was really about to blow up but then she died. and aaliyah could sing when she wanted to she just always held back. listen to the one i gave my heart to, giving up, street thing, never givin up, and journey to the past. look them up on youtube. and who's makin her out the best artist ever? and @ Joy, name one fifteen year old that WOULDNT wanna marry r.kelly? and aaliyah starred in novies and [EXPLETIVE] and she was about to be in more. so she was a big star. aaliyah could dance, or else she wouldnt be comment on by janet jackson. AND JANET SAID SHE WAS A GOOD DANCER BEFORE SHE DIED. SHE HAD 2 RECORD BREAKIN SINGLES, TRY AGAIN AND ARE YOU THAT SOMEBODY. and she never [EXPLETIVE] jay-z, she was messing with damon dash. aint nobody sayin she perfect cuz if she was still here she would be gettin hated On by everbody else. i suggest when yall talk [EXPLETIVE] about aaliyah, make sure you get all ya facts correct. now on beyonce doin aaliyah's song, beyonce sings to loud. im done
THANK YOU
the fact that people are even still discussing aaliyah 6 years later is a testiment to how big of an impact she made. with her level of fame aside, aaliyah was respected by her peers and those older than her.
she was known for being innovative and edgy when it came to her music, video, styling, persona. nothing was a gimmick about her. she wasn't just a pretty face who was controlled by her label. she had the talent to back it up.
and it baffles me how some would put her in the same vocal category as ciara, rihanna, etc. she sang soft because it was her signature and she CHOSE to. she already proved she could hold her own on a big ballad.
ok i'm done lol.
i think this whole remake of Aaliyah song is overrated*bekus alot of Aaliyah's fans r also fans of Beyonce. I think this would be a touchY situation 4 N e Aaliyah fan because we love her and miss her and Cant no1 replace her or remake anything she establish** Aaliyah IS DOPE!!! Beyonce is only good at what she does(Being Beyonce) I think it would be a good idea if Ciara Ashanti Tamia Nevia and especially Brandy and Monica!! do a tribute 2 Aaliyah and remake the 1 n a million song or a mixture of Aaliyah's songs* i think it would be cool if they did it that way nstead of just beyonce***I would like 2c Beyonce work with other artist besides Destiny Child)I think this would be a good GIRL POWER move) Timbaland and Missy should work on it as well** but @ the end of the day beyonce can sing and sheS a perfectionist so i dought she would MESS Up Aaliyah's song*** This was a touchy issue 4me cuz i Love Aaliyah.. i feel like if any1 deserves 2remake N e of Aaliyah's songS it should be Brandy and Monica** if it wasnT 4 BRANDY MONICA & AALIYAH.. non of these other artist would be out 2day**
I know that we are all grown and have a free will to say what we want and do what we want. I also know that no evil will go unpunished to all you people that speak hateful words against our sister Beyonce I feel sorry for you. You will not go unpunished...Watch what you say. With the same measure you shall also be judged!
Can you all just imagine the drama? R.KELLY---TIGHT! DAME DASH---EXTRA TIGHT!! I mean come on when CIARA first came out everyone tried to compare her to AALIYAH. Now J gone let this clown azz byotch do this dum SHYT!!Come on On da real all the TRUE aaliyah fans really need to BOYCOTT this trick, then maybe she will sit her tired azz down somewhere!!!J you get no love on this one either!!
Now before I say what I got to say I'm not a hater of b I like some of her music. But when it comes to Aaliyah I got to say something. When I saw the MTO story about cc I didn't comment I just brush it off. But now B is in it to that sh*t pisses me off. I'm a die hard Aaliyah fan, I've been a fan for a very long time. She's still my fav female R&B singer. But B and CC need to leave Aaliyah Alone. I have respect for both of them, but if they mess with Aaliyah music. I will lose all respect for both of them. Aaliyah RIP AND IM SO SORRY THAT THESES FELMALES WON'T LET YOU RIP.
Beyonce needs to sit her overexposed a.s.s. down somewhere and leave this s.h.i.t. alone. Hopefully this is just another MTO 'mix-up', because it's just a little too soon for this b.i.t.c.h. to be tryna mess up Aaliyah's last body of work.
I've been rocking 'the L-I-Y-A-H' since way back- (I mean R. Kelly, back and forth, big baggy clothes and dark sunglasses way back) and I just ain't feeling this s.h.i.t right here. But for some reason, I don't mind if CiCi does her duets. Go figure.
@Victorygurl
First off the only whore around here is YOU coz lord only knows what YOU get up to in your spare time; and second off not ONE song Beyonce and Ciara has can hold a torch to any of her music, and her music aint old its CLASSIC but you wouldn't know anything about that coz beyonce and ciara dont hold no classic joints to their name . And dont get me started on writing music songs coz EVERYONE knows beyonce is a damn THEIF when it comes to writing just go and ask neyo and Desree, taking shyt like its hers; your obivously some 15 year chicken head who only started listening to R&B music YESTERDAY who dont know shyt, and another thing the Haughton family dont need her d@mn money.
...Plain And Simple, Cut And Dry!!! If Aaliyah Owned The "Rights" To "One In A Million" Than It's Her Estates Decision, If Aaliyah's Estate Doesn't Have Copyrights, The Songs Can And Probably Would Go To The Higher Bidder...Including The Over-Saturated B'yonce Knowles...Michael Jackson Owned The Entire Beatles Catalog, Which Made Him A Much Hated Man To White Amerikkkan's Who Cherished John Lennon's Memory....
It was o'kay for Mary J Blige to COVER so many hit songs. Um, no further comment.
Anywho... LMAO @ "slut" whore??huh??" "trick"
DO YOU DINGBATS EVEN KNOW WHAT A SLUT IS?? AND IF SO.. HOW IS IT APPLICABLE?
Jealous much?
And no need to start your composition off with "I'm not a Beyonce hater, I just..." lol that doesn't hide your insecurities and jealousies. Just spew your hatred and keep it moving, SALTINAS. LOL
I agree with flygirlph...
If Beyonce remakes that song she will probably oversing it.. like she does to most of her songs. Some songs are meant to be sung peaceful and not too loud.. but if beyonce sings that song.. chances are it will be ruined.
R.I.P.
Aaliyah.
Why cant people just leave Aaliyah and her songs alone.
IM WITH EYES ON THIS ONE...IM NOT A BEYONCE FAN, IM AN AALIYAH FAN....BUT....

ALL IM SAYING IS YES APPRECIATE AALIYAH-HELL EVEN LOVE HER, BUT SHES NOT A GOD, SHE WAS BEAUTIFUL WITH A NICE VOICE AND COULD DANCE AND HAD TALENT....POINT BLANK
NO NO NOOOO!! Don't give away Aaliyah's albums because these fools talkin $hit. It's not right. Just think about Resolution, The 1 I Gave My Heart 2 or I Care 4U.
She's the ONLY youngster I danced to in the club...*remembering grooving to who is the L I Y A H*... doesn't that feel good when you think of her music?
It's ODD how so many of these posters "worship" artists yet call me a "stan" when I point out their inconsistencies or blatant lies. Hmmmm, odd, ehhh... maybeeee.... IRONIC is more appropriate?
I love bey and everything.I get what greattimes,c and justthefactsmam etc are sayin but if this is true then its a fact when Bey puts out the remake it will send mix messages to the viewers. Somebody before said it best, this a touch situation for Aaliyah fans. Bey I don't about this one, you may playin with fire if you touch this track. What I wanna know is what missy, ginuewine and Dash will think.
@JustTheFactMam
I know i was just too pissed when i read this post that ms. banchie was..well might remake the song...we're huge fans of aaliyah but she needs to rest in peace for real, and as far as her music goes, ppl do that all the time to deceased artists and as much as i felt for Aaliyah, thats still harsh to not give a f bout all those who came before and to just give appreciation to her cuz bey and others stole sooo many things from sooo many artists dead or alive, speak up for all those who are deceased who were wrongfully done...
but im not gonna give away her albums lol, that was just anger typing
Come to think off it...Beyonce may not do it...theres to much riding on this for her to go threw with it. Missy will be extra tight and tell timberland to shut down production. Dame and Jayz will really be beefin like never before... See its just mto tryin to push buttons because if this true I garantee Aaliyah fans will raise up!!! BEYONCE MY SONGSTRESS FROM SOUTH DONT DO IT TO YOUR SELF.
I just hope she dont the track RIP BABY GIRL
Aw HELLS no!!!! Beyonce better sit her tired, screaming, non-singing ass down in a corner somewhere! Leave my Aaliyah alone. Seriously! That song is a CLASSIC and doesn't need any help from Beyonce. I draw the line at disliking her to straight up HATING her now! Fall back biotch! That song's gonna sound so shittay if Beyonce does it. SMH!!
Jebus no! The beauty of One in a Million is that it was simplistic. Not flashy, not over the top, not in your face. Basically it was everything Beyonce is not. I cringe just thinking about her wailing all over this song. I would be fine with Ciara because her and Aaliyah's styles are similar but please not Beyonce.
(Call me a hater, she might be a good singer but I wouldn't know because half the songs on the radio consist of her shrieking and I'm just not interested enough to purchase her albums to see if she does better on other tracks. Give me Jill Scott any day. Now that woman blows me away.)
@ softandsweet
What has Beyonce done for me, you ask? She hasn't done anything more for me than Aaliyah's done for you. What kind of question is that. And you say "WE" don't want Beyonce to sing an Aaliyah song, as if it's unanimous! Frankly, I don't want her to do the song either. But then again, it doesn't matter if she does or doesn't! That's my point! To treat this like it's an insult to Aaliyah's life is just silly, in my opinion.
My point was, how do you know that the remake would not be a TRIBUTE to Aaliyah!? That's just it, you DON'T know that. You assumed it's not because that keeps Beyonce a villain in this example for you. That's all my point was. But furthermore, as I said, Aaliyah was a great performer and a GROWING star. However, we make her into a Hall-of-Famer with all this outrage! To me, it's just... silly. Sorry. I loved her too, but dayum yo. It's that outrageous? Fall back, please.
BEYONCE U BITCH I DARE U TO RUIN THAT AALIYAH CLASSIC WITH UR ANNOYING VOICE. WHY R U RIDIN ON HER GRAVE FOR SWEETIE?? U WILL NEVA LOOK LIKE HER SING LIKE HER OR EVER BE HER. SO STAY IN YA [EXPLETIVE] PLACE AND LET HER MUSIC LIVE ON WITHOUT UR YELLING VOICE ALL IN IT SO [EXPLETIVE] U ASHANTI AND ANY OTHA R&B BITCH THATS TRYNA BE BETTA THAN AALIYAH ...AALIYAH WILL BE VERY DISSAPOINTED IF SHE WOULD'VE FOUND OUT ABOUT THIS. SO LET THE BEST SINGER R.I.P LOVE YA AALIYAH
SMDH @ all the crazy Aaliyah STANS. Ya'll are the worst stans ever b/c how you gon worship somebody who's dead? Now speaking as a Neutral Aaliyah fan and Beyonce fan they are both good artists. Beyonce sings way better and is a lot prettier than Aaliyah IMO however Aaliyah was the better dancer. Aaliyah was successful but no where near as successful and popular as Beyonce. Aaliyah only got so much praise AFTER she died just like Left-eye and any other celebrity that doesn't get props until after they've passed.
C, Haterzistdown, and other non Aaliyah stans I completely agree. If Aaliyah was alive she would be called a slut a bitch no ass ho and all these other names just like everybody else. It's funny how Aaliyah was only considered one of the greats after she died b/c when she was alive people were talking [EXPLETIVE] about her too.
BTW some of ya'll really need to calm down b/c she is never coming back so ya'll seriously need to chill. Beyonce is alive and extremely successful and all that is for a reason. Not everybody is meant to be where Beyonce is at.
^^^^ SMH U just proved my point and u r a prime example of what c, haterz, and others are talking about. Last time I checked I'm entitled to my OPINION and u r obviously an Aaliyah stan or else u wouldn't try to attack people. And didn't I say I was a fan of both? But I still have my opinions. I feel sorry for people like you b/c bringing up Aaliyah not gonna change the fact that she gone and Beyonce is still here so get over it STAN.
And just for u I'll say it again. As a fan of both, I think Beyonce is a much much better singer and a lot prettier than Aaliyah however Aaliyah was the better dancer. And I call it like I see it.
How long before another psychotic Aaliyah stan pops up to defend somebody who's not even here anymore. Pathetic. 5...4...3...2...1
Poor Aaliyah she can't even RIP w/o her crazy stans trying to compare her to people who are still alive. What is the world coming to when stans try to compare the person they worship to somebody who's still alive? Again SMDH
Damn anytime u put Beyonce name on something it sells. Just look at all these comments. MTO and all these other blogs know what they are doing when they make up shyt and talk about Beyonce everyday. She's the only artist people care to talk about. Damn Bey got power.
Anyway I don't believe this ish b/c MTO lies about Beyonce all the time just to get hits. And like I said before I agree with those who said people are only giving Aaliyah so much credit b/c she's gone. If she were alive people would say she can't sing and all this other stuff. And it is a shame that you don't get recognized until you die.
I'm Confused- There are tons of Bey fans on here all the time coming to her defense on EVERY SINGLE POST. I have not been on MTO long but you have no idea how long any of these people have been fans of Aaliyah. Why must you ASSUME that people are coming to her defense because she is dead? This is the first post I have seen regarding Aaliyah and since the topic is so controversial, Aaliyah fans are in a huff (As you would be if the tables were turned). So, someone help me understand how any of these Bey fans can accuse Aaliyah fans of similar attitudes towards two very different artists. I think that is very, very backwards and it makes no sense.
I totally loved Aaliyah. "One in a million" is one of my favorite songs of all time, and I'll have a hard time hearing it from someone else but Bee has the talent, so I'm sure she'll do it justice. Beyonce the solo artist does take breaks, it's jsut that she was also involved with DC so we were constantly seeing her. You definately can't be mad at her because she's good at what she does and doesn't have any competition, and hasn't had any for a long time. In the music business, you really have to get while the gettings good sometimes and that's what she's doing.
@ dcfanforever
"im a stan" No i dont think so dont EVER get it twisted im far from it, but looking at your user name your more of a stan than me all im sayin is if theres any truth to this beyonce dont need to be harrasing a classic song you talk about me defending Aaliyah whos not here any more yes true but isn't it the same thing what your doing because Beyonce may still be here but dont know that you exist either. And how did i bring her her name up look at what the title of the topic is called so its obivious her name is gonna be brought up. And i never said i wasn't a fan of beyonce im a fan of both but like a lot of people said shes overexposed im not deny her talent. and another i never ONCE compared her to beyonce because it makes no sense when shes outlived her.

MTO know they be jackin'. First Ciara doing a duet with her now Beyonce. I know ya'll jackin about both of em. And i just wanna make one more thing clear for Aaliyah stans. Even if the Ciara/Beyonce stories are true, stop ridin Aaliyah joc. Aaliyah was not even that famous till after she died. When she was alive i remember people talked about her like a dog. Then as soon as she died she was the most talented singer ever, get real. She didnt win that many awards and her albums didnt do that well. Beyonce and Ciara are world wide known at a higher level than Aaliyah was. STop jocin her. let her rest in peace if you a true fan.
===========================
You need to let Aaliyah fans say what they need to say. I'm getting tired of everyone defending Beyonce and the crew. Why can't fans of Aaliyah say their thing without someone jumping on them about it? Aaliyah was singing and acting before Beyonce even got in the public eye. So she was first.
@ LucyLulu HOW MANY TIMES I GOTTA TELL YALL DUMBASS PEOPLE??? aaliyah was just as famous before she died then after. she sold more records when she was alive then when she was dead. and u mean i remember when people talked about aaliyah like a dog.. ok? beyonce alive and people talk about her as well such as HER STANKY ASS BREATH TO HER SHAKIN HER NAPPY ASS WEAVE AND HOW SHE UGLY WITHOUT MAKEUP. and if ciara was more known than aaliyah, then y did aaliyah sell more records then ciara when she was ALIVE? if u gon hate on aaliyah, hate the right way and get ya facts straight. and nobody's making aaliyah to be the best singer ever. we all know that aaliyah diddnt have a whitney houston voice but does beyonce? no. aaliyah worked with what she had, wITH hitting those low notes and high notes. and she had a decent range. lets not get on ciara's singing. and aaliyah diddnt win that many awards thats true but neither did monica or brandy so what? and if you think about it, aaliyah CHOSE not to be that much in the public eye. she stayed away from all that on purpose, leaving 4 five years and coming back. beyonce needs to do that [EXPLETIVE] but she cant sit her ass down. of course aN AALIYAH fan is gonna joc aaliyah JUST LIKE YOU ARE JOCCIN CIARA AND BEYONCE!!!!!!!!
FIRST OFF I TOTALLY AGREE WITH NOTHINGBUTLOVE POST. AND TO COMMENT ON A COUPLE OF OTHER'S I HAVE READ REGARDING THIS SUBJECT. AALIYAH IS GONE, BUT EVEN IF SHE WERE STILL HERE TODAY WOULDN'T CHANGE THE FACT THAT BEYONCE WILL ONLY MESS HER SONG UP. JUST LIKE SHE MESSED UP JUSTIN TIMBERLAKES SONG WITH THAT REMIX THE STATIONS STOPPED PLAYING QUICKLY. BEYONCE JUST NEEDS TO MARRY JAY-Z SO THEY CAN COMBINE THEIR MONEY AND LIVE OFF OF IT FOR THE REST OF THEIR LIVES. JAY-Z PLEEAASSE STOP TRYING TO RAP, BEYONCE PLEEAASSE STOP TRYING TO SING AND SELL UR MOMMA'S UGLY A$$ CLOTHES. YOU BOTH HAVE HAD UR DAYS IN THE LIME LIGHT, NOW GO AWAY AND LET THE FRESH NEW TALENT SHINE. ALONG WITH THE OLD TALENTS THAT ARE TRUE SINGERS LIKE MARIAH CAREY AND SO ON. BOOTY SHAKE-HALF NAKED WITH LARGE WEAVE ONLY GOES SO FAR. AND MAKING UP LYRICS TO A RAP SONG AS YOU GO IS JAY-Z HAS BEEN MORE THAN PAINFUL ENOUGH.
ok so I know that this site has ALOT of Beyonce coochie riders, so let me first say I like her work, but this trick is starting to get on my nerves first she wanna [EXPLETIVE] with MAry, now she wanna go and change up a classic song. Let Aaliyah rest in peace and let her family grieve and be left alon. A tribute is a nice thing but can Beyonce honestly sing a classy song without shaking dat ass?.....Exactly, she is talented but I just think she is doing too much she got cake and a great career, why she always gotta be doing something? BEYONCE sit ur ass down somewhere go on a vacation wit J go make a baby cuz if you waitng on that Oscar you will be 100 before starting a family.(she made the comment on a interview that she wants an oscar before settling donw.) honestly B aint gonna see no Oscar for playing a role so close to her own life she needs to play a crack head whore and do a fab job before she gets an Oscar! Sorry to all u Beyonce coochie lickas!!
wow from some of the comments that I read I feel sick to my stomach. Some of you folks are missin the point. I really just skip reading some comments because the arguments are unecessary to the situation. can some of you put your self Aaliyah's parents shoes and wonder for a second how they would feel to have these two women wait so long to bring up a painful memory. Its not even hatin on bey because I know if she was in aaliyah's position and rihanna tried this [EXPLETIVE], we would have been all back on this page cussin and mad as [EXPLETIVE]. Could you imagine rihanna going to matthew and tina, how many years later askin to do a tribute, when she she should have done it before. I pray to god bey changes her mind, because this not gonna go down good for her, especially if she goes over the estate's head and goes through with this.
and then them haters are really gonna go after, missy who help write song is gonna be extra pissed at bey for this because shes more touchy then anyone on this page about Aaliyah's death. I LOVE BEYONCE TO DEATH BUT I HOPE SHE THINKS LONG AND HARD ON THIS ONE.... AND ALSO TO AALIYAH HATERS WHO HAD THE FUCKEN NERVE TO COME ON THIS PAGE DISRESPECT, YOU KNOW YOUR JUST AS HEARTLESS AS MTO, REMIND ME TO PUT MY SODA NEXT YOUR COLD ICY HEARTS
I'm actually offended! Not because I'm no big B fan, but it just seems wrong.....Every song doesn't have to be remade, and this is a perfect example, Bey wasn't messn' with Aaliyah when she was alive, and damn sure messn' with her now!......Bey is gonna mess that song up, it's a classic....LEAVE IT ALONE! Don't nobody wanna hear you screamn', over singn' and riffin' all through the song, DAMN!
Aaliyah is was classy and seemed true to herself, she was like this is me period. Bey is way over the top and extremely "extra" Bey is a good entertainer, but this ain't that kind of song, you get two thumbs downs for this one!!
people loved Aaliyah because she was real, and down to earth and of course an amazing talent. people love beyonce because she pretends to be humble and appeals to a wider audience. beyonce is overexposed and needs to step away from the spotlight. it's strange, beyonce has never been poor even before the fame but she is so damn money hungry. she needs to have her name everywhere and she needs to be everywhere. i just pray that she leave Aaliyah's music alone. on the bright side, if she does remake the song, then she will lose many of her fans and HOPEFULLY she'll get the message.
I kinda don't understand, it's okay for ciara to want to do it but when beyonce want to do it , it's a problem and ciara can't sing (period ) at all iterally and she sucks as a entertainer am not even going to call her a entertainer , and aaliyah love her and her songs but if anybody going to do justice to aaliyah body of work it would be beyonce not ciara studio up voice . Please start using comment sense and but ya'll non sense to the side it's sad and ya'll are really fuking up music with ya comments .Plus it says big as day if the family doesn't wish for her to do it then she will leave it alone , alot of ya'll didn't kno beyonce and aaliyah was friends when she was alive . They even got the dvd out and beyonce was the first female on there showing love when aaliyah passed away .
EWWW BEYONCE IS SO IN OVERKILL MODE; SHE REALLY DOES NEED TO GO SOMEWHERE & TAKE A BREAK; WRITE, HELP OUT HER GUL KELLY; ALL HER MUSIC SOUNDS ALIKE, SO SHE NEEDS TO DO A REMAKE, & TO TOUCH CLASSIC AALIYAH IS NOT GOOD; AS FAR AS CIARA GOES, WELL I FAULT ALOT OF THAT ON MISSY 'NEM; THEY TRIED TO MOLD CIARA INTO ANOTHER AALIYAH & I SAW IT COMING ALONG TIME AGO. THERE CAN BE BUT ONE AALIYAH;
It's so funny how everyone has something negative to say about Beyonce doing this it sounds like it could possibly turn out well and when it comes to singing any dumbass can tell you that Beyonce kicks Aaliyah's Ass (God rest her soul) True the song shouldn't be touched but if Beyonce did release a cover of one in a million all you dumb tricks would buy it so shut the [EXPLETIVE] up
PLEASE don't let this be true. While I love Bey and think she is talented, I just can't see her re-singing a song that was already smoothly done. Beyonce yells in her songs more than she does actually sing.. Aaliyah, to some may have not had the best voice but her voice was just right for that beat and that song and she always had this slick and smoothness about her.
I hope the Haughton Family, no disrespect, is not seriously thinking about letting her cover this song. There are certain artists' songs that should NOT be remade. This is one of Aaliyah's many that no one needs to touch.
