Cover Spotted @ MWZA

Aaliyah covers the June 2008 issue of Fader Magazine’s Annual Icon Issue.  The feature covered the singer’s journey and her influence on today’s styles and trends.  Several of Aaliyah’s friends and family members paid tribute to the fallen star in the issue. 

Missy Elliott ~ “We was gonna save the world. We was gonna change music every chance we got. We was gonna always be family. Forever.” 

Damon Dash ~ “She was already a fashion icon, she was getting into movies, she had already planted that seed. If she was alive today she would be so relevant. I see little bits of her everywhere I look, in a lot of artists.”

It’s been almost 7 years since Aaliyah lost her life in a tragic plane crash.  She is surely missed and her music is still influencing young artists today.  This is one issue that I am definitely going to pick up.
