Probably because she showcased a smoother, softer voice more. There's "Giving Up (Is Hard To Do)", where she performs amazing vocals. I think she just didn't want to be a diva like the rest. They compare her to Janet, Ciara, Cassie, and all of those girls with weak vocals. But Aaliyah could actually singer better than them. Aaliyah was like in the middle, and around the corner. She could sing sing high and low, smooth and deep, falsetto, and jazzy. She had her own voice.

The word your looking for is “unique” indeed A’aliyah voice was very unique but it wasn’t weak she naturally had a smooth sound light and voice unlike Janet who actually you could never understand, and Cassie she was only a studio chick. A’aliyah never cared to be anyone more than A’aliyah and she didn’t have to try to upstage anyone including herself. When it comes to dancing A’aliyah used a deeper tone of voice that I didn’t like but it was to keep her breathing under control I believe once she gotten older she voice never changed yet she had more confidence in herself because she started to come out her little closet and started to give much more of a stronger preference. And honestly if A’aliyah was still living she really would have had to change up her vocal style as far as singing because the media and the public would’ve ate he up like seriously 😒 she was our R&B princess 👑 and sweetheart A’aliyah’s music is a treasure as is she and just timeless. A’sliyah is now frozen in time sadly but a lot of artist remember and love her. # I’m her # 1fan

The main fact here is that Aaliyah has a voice of an Angel which I believe is being heard in heaven among other Angels. She was never capable of singing a bad version of any song. The girl was/ still is in my mind a beautiful, talented, loving gift that we were lucky enough to have had on this earth for the all too brief time we did. To me she's more than "One in a million" she is "Once in a lifetime!" I'll always love this girl for who she was and her talent!

There is a guy on KZbin by the name of Kwame who has some nice stimulated remixes anyway he has one for Aaliyahs rock d boat record. It could serve as a movie intro. I suggested that he send it to Rashad and Warner Bros. From what I hear there is suppose to be a bio pic. of her life coming out soon 2010 maybe. Aaliyah - Rock the Boat [Stimulated Remix] check it
