Biography
American singer, a 22-year-old R&B artist, died along with seven others when a plane flying them back from the Bahamas crashed and exploded.
The Cessna 402 went down shortly after takeoff, 8/25/2001, 6:50 PM EDT, Marsh Harbour International Airport, Abaco, Bahamas, 77 W.05, 26 N.30, leaving wreckage some 75 yards from the end of the runway. The suspected cause of the crash is the failure of one of the engines. It is reported that the passengers were told their luggage was too heavy, and were asked to leave some of it behind, but they refused. The film crew was returning from a music video shoot in the Bahamas.
Aaliyah began performing at age 11 on stage with Gladys Knight’s troupe in Las Vegas. Her first album, "Age Ain't Nothing But A Number, came out when she was 15 years old. She has collaborated with R&B singer R. Kelly, who produced her debut album and wrote many of the songs that appeared on it.
