Mourning Aaliyah, The Houdini Of Black Girl Magic
Aaliyah recorded her first album Age Ain’t Nothing But A Number at 14. One of the singer’s close friends, Kidada Jones, said in her Rolling Stone obituary that “[Aaliyah] really settled into her womanhood. Aaliyah died on August 25, 2001, and its effects are still evident on both small and large scales.
