Well AANBAN was my #10, so it just scraped the top 10 but let me tell you something I love how mellow that song is. I can go past who wrote cause it's a whole MOODt.

Girl shit like this is why I'm agnostic. Ain't no saving these heathens! The problem with 'separating the person from the music' is that the music here is directly based on the very thing that makes R. Kelly unforgivable. It's not like it's a random club banger or generic love song that you can mindlessly bop to and forget for a few minutes how shitty he is. This ***I'M RACIST*** literally built a goddamn hook around an ode to his pedophilia. Ain't no melody in the world smooth enough to excuse that. I think sometimes about how awful and wracked with guilt Aaliyah's parents must have felt upon realizing they'd turned their daughter over to this famous singer/producer just for him to do THAT to her. And to be so bold about it he fucking branded her entire first album with it and made sure he'd be attached to her career for the rest of her life. I was 13 when that shit came out and I was side eyeing the shit like 'umm, what?' Then Chester the Molester's messy ass was trying to create a 'mystery' around her and had people speculating that she was actually 19 at the time. I knew better and was disturbed that other people weren't bothered. Sadly, being acquainted at such a young age with the urban community's whole ass indifference to child molestation/incest is probably the only reason I'm not in here cussing people tf out left and right. It's just too deeply ingrained and too high a mountain for me to try to climb today. It's sad that the fact that her debut album was pure trash outside of the three US singles and she probably would have been a one-album wonder had she not moved on to far superior producers and writers is the only thing keeping people from stumping so hard for the Chester days of Aaliyah's output. I have a whole ass rant about how Robert's talent is overrated af though (thus making all the excuses for brushing aside his fuckery even more baffling and infuriating) and I don't have time to go there today, so.

Well, I ranked AANBAN outside Top 20. And it has nothing to do with all the backstories.

I was confused for a minute (I didn't feel I was reading anybody I was just mad and ranting, in other news it's a day that ends in y lol) but I reread my own post and I see what you mean now. I didn't mean that to come off as specific to what you said - I see a lot of people say they separate the person from the music (it's the same logic people use with Chris) so that is where I was coming from with that. And I could somewhat understand that reasoning for something like In the Name of Love or maybe even Ignition, just not with AANBAN. Way too close to home with that one.

okay it is time for "Age Ain't Nothing But A Number" to go, that is my lowest remaining and I probably over ranked it by 5 spots (ranked it at #20). Some of these were first time listens whereas her debut album singles were not. Everything in my Top 17 could have been in my Top 10.

Also, me not submitting my list in time but cackling at the mess in the background makes me both late AND trifling, meaning I’m the stereotypically blackest one here right now. I rest my damn case.

Lol did you just call the Timbaland mix 'superior'? 'Cause I f**ked up my ranking on this one because of the Timbaland mix. The album version of 'Hot Like Fire' is a lot better, and if I'd done my due diligence and listened to that as well, this would've been higher on my list. The Timbaland mix may as well have ended after the second verse/chorus 'cause it gets boring and repetitive af after that.
