But, as Steph mentioned, that future lives on in the R&B stars dominating the charts now. Watching the performance is bittersweet now because it’s Aaliyah at her finest, and it just makes me think of the future of Aaliyah excellence we missed. The choreography is impeccable, but it’s Aaliyah that elevates sharp moves into a silky masterclass in putting on a show. This performance feels like that first cup of tea in the morning while the sunlight is streaming in and the day’s worries have yet to hit. It’s Aaliyah performing “If Your Girl Only Knew” (an eternal bop from the Steal Yo’ Man R&B era) on Showtime At The Apollo in 1996. It’s a performance that when you watch it, you think “oh, Baby girl is an ENTERTAINER who can do whatever the hell she wants” and it feels like a precursor to her acting career.

Which brings me to another Aaliyah performance that should have won an Oscar, Emmy, MTV VMA, Grammy, and all of the above. Mp4 HD Trailer, aaliyah are you that somebody movie, aaliyah are you that somebody mp3, aaliyah are you that somebody download, video songs, hd video. It’s pure, flawless, powerful, sexy SWAG.
I know we left that word back in the 2000s, but there’s really no other way to describe what Aaliyah is giving in the scene in Romeo Must Die when she’s teaching Li’s Romeo about hip hop. The same baby has crawled its way onto several songs, from the Rascals’ Look Around (1969), to Prince’s Delirious (1982), to TNGHT’s Bugg’n (2012). Not only did Li and Aaliyah show us a sweet interracial onscreen romance that doesn’t centre whiteness, they also both had something that cannot be taught: swagger. Aaliyah - Are You That Somebody As with many famous samples, this coo has a storied history in pop music. To me, that reason is the sheer force of the charisma of the three leads: DMX (RIP), Jet Li and Aaliyah. I Said What I Said Dot Gif! Sure, the reviews weren’t great when it came out in 2000 and it got a measly 32% on Rotten Tomatoes, but it’s become a cult classic in the 21 years since it’s release for good reason. Aaliyah in Romeo Must Die should go into the hall of fame of singers-turned-actors filmography. But if you’ve ever seen Whitney Houston in The Bodyguard or Brandy in Cinderella or Jennifer Hudson in, well, anything, you know that we’d be missing out on so many great performances if they subscribed to that antiquated notion.
