“She was good with the camera, comfortable with herself, completely working it. She was enjoying the journey – to tell her own story and speak about her artistry. You could sense that straight away: her whole sense of performing, acting, and behaving in front of the camera. She was very generous. I named my daughter Aliyah and my second daughter Erykah – so you can guess who she’s named after. After #Aaliyah, after hearing that voice in key, that was it for me. I thought the beauty of song is what Aaliyah brought into the world and I definitely wanted that for my daughter too. The best we can celebrate is what she gave to us. Sometimes I play at weddings and I like to drop an Aaliyah song – it works every time. Everyone is on the floor, the kids, the grandparents, the grandkids and everyone is dancing as we are one.” – @dhagren ✨
