We already talked about those musicians whose early deaths make us question their possible futures, though some cases, such as Buddy Holly, tend to be more pronounced in that regard, because they felt like they were about to achieve their peaks. Another great case of that is definitely Aaliyah. If you listen to her final album, you notice an incredible singer who knows how to deploy her voice in connection with a wild production. No surprise you keep asking yourself, where she could have gone with that potential. I would dare to claim Aaliyah should be seen as a signal of greater things for her, though we know they sadly didn't happen. Thus, we hear a record as an incredible swan song, but we must state that her work continues to influence many modern R & B musicians.
