Its been 9 years since the tragic passing of Aaliyah Dana Haughton in plane crash in the Bahamas.  She is gone but her music, legacy and image lives on in the hearts and minds of her fans world wide.  I don't think there are many deceased celebrities who still get as much attention, adoration and props from fans.  Its like she was that girl we all knew, wanted to know or wanted to get with.  Beautiful inside (so I heard) and outside she was definitely taken away way too soon.  I wonder what the industry would be like if she were still here??  Sleep on Baby Girl!!








Here's Drake's letter to Aaliyah can we get an awwwwwwwwwww??  Via Necolebitchie.com

Dear Dana,
I’ve never lost a parent, a friend, or a lover but I will never forget this day for the rest of my life. I remember getting the news that you had passed and it connected with my heart like a clean shot from Muhammad Ali. I was crushed. Not only was I one of your biggest fans but I was truly in love with you. I loved the way you carried yourself, the way you dressed, the confidence with which you addressed passion and relationships in your music. I said to myself that even if we never met, I wanted a woman in my life just like you. I am pained that we will never get to connect now that music ended up being my career path. But you should know, we all listen to you everyday and we remain inspired and moved by all that you’ve given the world. I hope I make the right life choices so I can end up in heaven where I know you rest your head. I’ll continue to make music in your honor until the day we finally meet. Dinner’s on me!
Love you always and forever,
Drake
