It is dark in my favorite dream. Someone is following me. I don't know why. I'm scared. Then suddenly I lift off. Far away. How do I feel? As if I am swimming in the air. Free. Weightless. Nobody can reach me. Nobody can touch me. It's a wonderful feeling.

— Aaliyah Interview in Die Zeit newspaper (2001)

When people ask me, I tell them, "Hey don't believe all that mess. We're close and people took it the wrong way."

There's a dark side to me that comes out in everything I do.

I knew at a very young age this was what I wanted to do. I started singing at six so I knew by the time I was eight.

I breathe to perform, to entertain, I can’t imagine myself doing anything else. I’m just a really happy girl right now. I honestly love every aspect of this business. I really do. I feel very fulfilled and complete.

I saw [the Vibe article], but I don't really comment on that because I know it's not true.
