In remembrance of Aaliyah (her ten year anniversary of her death tomorrow Aug. 25th), Billboard.com asked twelve notable female R&B acts to share their thoughts and memories of the missed singer.
Keyshia Cole
"When I found out that she [had] past that night, I just cried [while] on the tour bus. That's amazing for someone to have that affect on other people's lives.I think why it affected me so much without me knowing her is because she seemed to have a beautiful soul."
Monica
"The first time I met her, she was extremely quiet. You [weren't] going to get a lot of words out of Aaliyah in a first meeting. It takes a lot of time for her to warm up to people overall because she had this shyness.
Ciara
"She was true to who she was and she didn't seem to care about it. The core of her art to me is heavily, heavily urban based. It never felt like she was trying to reach across or do anything more than just keep that cool, soulful, heavy urban core about it."
