A Tribute To Aaliyah

Performer: Various Artists
Distributor: E1 Distribution (USA)

Notes: Recording information: The World End Studios, London, England. In August of 2001, promising young singer Aaliyah (full name Aaliyah Dana Haughton) was killed when the small plane carrying her and her crew back to the U.S. from a video shoot in the Bahamas crashed. She was only 22. At the time of her death, Aaliyah had already found stardom as a talented and beautiful pop star, and was making her first forays into acting with a prominent role in Matrix sequels. Given such a sad story, this tribute to the singer is certainly deserved. However, the 12 versions of her songs performed here by the United Talent of R&B (a studio collective that does not feature any name-brand talent) range from middling to decent, and don't offer the listener any additional insight into Aaliyah's music or mystique. Part of the proceeds go to breastcancerfund.org. ~ Johnny Loftus
