ThatOtherFan Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 TOF You didn't drag a damn thing :lmao: ME - Quotes,facts,etc You - Assumptions I provided PLENTY of quotes, facts, and receipts, but you didn't want to listen because you KNEW it would kill your little argument. You got dragged...accept it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hotboy06 Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 Queen of the Damned was Aaliyah's best acting role in my opinion....she went there. !!!!!!!!!!!!!! She was Akasha! I don't think Aaliyah would have been overexposed. She was on her way to do some big THANGS. This hurts because she passed away at the pinnacle of her career. Her last album was AMAZING, but it really wasn't flying off the shelves as far as sales. But the critical acclaim meant more to me than actual commercial success.

You got dragged...accept it. The only receipts you were bringing up was shit that went down years later AFTER Chapter II era and the ONLY other one you brought in happened BEFORE the Chapter II era. You had NOTHING for the actual time of the era. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laveaux Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 Aaliyah would be on some other shit by now. Her music WOULD have evolved more and I think that she would be more into making movies and maybe even a television show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again, my receipts killed your argument so you tried to dismiss it. The facts remains...you got dragged....accept it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It debuted @ #2 and was easily the highest first wk sales of her career (including Monica and Brandy's). It went gold within 4 weeks. It moved faster than her previous efforts.

It wasn't a diss because that didn't make me hate the album because it was a slow seller. I'll stan for that album, but it wasn't moving units like that.

Aaliyah was never HUGE. So on a lower scale it was GREAT numbers for someone on her level. IT was selling faster than her first and second. You have to grade artists on the level they're on..not on a complete POP scale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Songs In A Minor" was already out,it came out in over a month before...Alicia was getting so big it climbed back up to #1. Had it not done that Aaliyah would have debut at #1 easily. She still shitted on any of Brandy and Monica's first wk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IT was selling faster than her first and second. You have to grade artists on the level they're on..not on a complete POP scale. I understand that, but it was exactly flying off of shelves, neither were her singles. Her music had evolved and I don't think the general public was up on her evolution. "We Need A Resolution" was so different but fizzled on the Hot 100..She had two huge hits with "Are You That Somebody" and "Try Again"..that interest really didn't transpire to the Aaliyah album because she tried something different. I respect her for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I respect her for that. I'm aware "We Need A Resolution" didn't do anything big. But salewise and chart position it was the HIGHEST and BIGGEST Aaliyah has ever had so maybe thats why I'm looking at it has having the potential to be more successful. It was off to a good start ALBUM SALESWISE. Going GOLD in 4 weeks...she has NEVER done.Thats all I'm saying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
