Aaliyah Is Dead

[gang$tarr]

man don't you have any respect? She died and you're calling her a bitch.... how would you know about all that stuff, were you her best friend?

that's great that it doesn't bother you but you don't have to be insulting dead people

Regardless of other opinions, I just wanted to shed light on something.

Aaliyah was a talented artist who has touched many and enlightened dozens of people across the world. Her music has touched many people in whatever ways, be it in sadness, joy, rough times, etc. I enjoyed her music very much and am deeply saddened by the loss of such a talented person. I don't know her or vice versa, yet I feel the same sorrow as her family might be feeling. While we never may be able to tell when our time is about to come, it's in cases like these when we realize how short life really is and how we should make the best of it.

The old saying, "You never appreciate things, till they're gone!" is something that is so true in everything. We take things for granted, never thinking that maybe tomorrow it won't be there, or worse, we won't be there to see it again.

The Hip Hop world is dealt yet another blow and as before with the deaths of many artists beforehand that died in senseless tragedies, we move on. Aaliyah has blessed us with her music, she will go on in our memories and in our hearts.

I must agree with gang$tarr on this ..Moppie what you've just said is pretty F$%# up !!! I just wanted to tell you that and I dont know what kind of person u are calling her a bitch b/c the only bitch here i see is YOU

Moppie - that was pretty harsh. I agree with your point that shes no more important than a thousand nameless people who die everyday. These people also mean the world to someone. But, thats still no reason to rip on such a tragic incident (although I plan on laughing my ass off when Castro and Saddam finally croak).

I'm suprised that Castro and Saddam have lived as long as they have. BTw, I heard something about Aaliyah's plane being very overloaded in the report. Something like 8 people on the plane, and it was a pretty small plane.

Overloaded and an engine failure. Basically, the plane could manage 1700lbs. Now you factor in 9 people, luggage, and stage props, they pretty much exceeded that. From the reports that I am reading though, the company that rented the plane to them, for some reason decided to send them a smaller plane knowing that they had that much stuff. They flew in a bigger one to get to the bahamas.

yeah it'll be funny when that queer saddam dies.... and i can't beleive castro is still alive

[Moppie]

hehehehehhe.

A friend told me yesterday that im good at stirring up shit!
Yes its a great loss to "hip hop" and the "R&B" "comunity" (the people who can longer make money off her limited talent that is), and its always sad when someone so young dies, when thier right on the verge of having a pretty extraordinary life.

But you have to remember that none of us actualy knew her in person, an as far as the music industry is concerned she will be forgotten about and replaced in 3months.
There's also the pathetic idle worshp that seems to go on around people like her. Think why she got worshped? It was because she's pretty and can sing, and has a whole Record company Marketing her as something really great and special so they can make money of the suckers who believe it. In reality she's just another normal person, probobly has a friendly and out going personality, and can sing enough to get by. Other than that her Aunt just happens to be Gladdis Night, who helped her get where she was. It could have been anybody who had a contact in the industry, Talant and personality are all around us, I know several people who would make great "pop" stars, but they never will becuase they dont know anyone with the right contacts.

All the time famous people die, and get worshped for nothing more than haveing had a pretty face and being made famous by someone else, while people who actualy acvieve something in the world go by totaly unnoticed. Its a rather sad look at what we hold as being valuable in the world, and a very depressing look at what our core values and morals are.

Sorry if I upset anybody, I just wanted you guys to think a little bit about what you where doing.
How many of you took notice, and flooded message boards when Mother Therasa died?

[hermunn123]

Moppie is right. she will be forgotten in 3 months. it's happened before with similar things. i'm not trying to be mean, or speak ill of the dead, but its true.

[Mrcoilover]

that was alittle harsh. u lucky u redeemed yourself. if you died would
you want me saying bury that faggot and move on. Yeah she is not above or below us but she is a human being. ask GOD for forgiveness
you petty fool.
