Book Description

Aaliyah Remembered is an in-depth biography of star singer-actress Aaliyah Dana Haughton (1979-2001). It chronicles her life from the beginning to the end and focuses on both her stellar "Hot Like Fire" career, and on her as a person. Upon taking a "Journey To The Past" and completing the book, readers will have a three-dimensional in-depth portrait of the person behind the mystique and know why Aaliyah was "More Than A Woman" and "One In A Million." They'll discover why Aaliyah was not only a great performer, but a humble, classy, charitable and warm person who remains an inspiration for the ages. They'll discover her strong belief in God, family, and hard work. They'll see that in her spirit of "Never Givin' Up," dreams can come true even if one must at times, through setbacks and difficulties, dust themselves off and "Try Again." Aaliyah Remembered consists of hard-core Aaliyah material only. It is filled with her words and the words of her family, closest friends, and people who knew her. It also includes photographs, narratives of what countries around the world thought of her, and the lyrics to her biggest songs. Through these thoughts and stories, readers will experience her highs and lows and take a close-up, personal journey with Aaliyah as if she was reliving her life. Aaliyah Remembered is a compelling, must-have book for all who love her. It is also a necessity for anyone eager to discover a person worth knowing about or that generosity, love, and decency still exist in today's chaotic, troubled world, for "At [Her] Best [Aaliyah was love]" and the people of the world were "The One[s] [She] Gave [Her] Heart To." If there is one person worth discovering and emulating, it is Aaliyah Dana Haughton.

Now, two decades later, the full story of Aaliyah’s life and cultural impact is finally and lovingly revealed. Baby Girl features never-before-told stories, including studio anecdotes, personal tales, and eyewitness accounts on the events leading up to her untimely passing. Her enduring influence on today’s artists—such as Rihanna, Drake, Normani, and many more—is also celebrated, providing Aaliyah’s discography a cultural critique that is long overdue. “There’s no better way to pay your respect to R&B’s true angel than to lose yourself in the pages” (Kim Osorio, journalist and author of Straight from the Source) of this “dazzling biography” (Publishers Weekly) that is as unforgettable as its subject. This book was written without the participation of Aaliyah’s family/estate.
