2:53Now PlayingThree platinum albums—including a double platinum—and receiving both a Grammy and Oscar nomination, Aaliyah truly was “One In A Million.”
The late singer, whose first album went platinum at the age of 15, was known as the “Princess of R&B.” The triple threat singer, actor and writer was well on her way to elite status in the entertainment industry. Award-winning singer Anthony Hamilton said the pop star was going to go a long way in her career, and Beyoncé said Aaliyah even influenced her in her career.
It has been 20 years since the untimely death of Aaliyah. BNC’s “Start Your Day” host Sharon Reed and Shannon LaNier celebrate her life and legacy.
