Aaliyah - Age Ain't Nothing But A Number (#ad)
When Aaliyah was introduced to R Kelly at a tender age of 13 by her uncle Hankerson, she had no idea her first album Age Ain’t Nothing But A Number (#ad) would sell 6 million copies by the end of December 1994.
R Kelly not only mentored Aaliyah as they spent hours late night trying to perfect her songs to his fast paced RandB music, they also fell in love with each other and would later get secretly married when Aaliyah turns 15.
Her songs "Age Ain't Nothing but a Number", "At Your Best (You Are Love)" and "Back & Forth" all topped the Billboard RandB charts throughout 1994 before they were over thrown by Mariah Carey's "One Sweet Day".
Aaliyah and R Kelly did manage to reach the top 5 of the Billboard Hot 100 charts, as they sold more than 3 million copies in the U.S alone.
To further promote the album as well as to make the most of her album's success, Aaliyah would organize a world tour with R Kelly starting early 1995.
With more than 30 shows in US, Europe and Japan.Aaliyah hardly showed any nerves while performing in front of huge crowds as a teenager.
Aaliyah's funky upbeat slow jams combined with the Asian influence, especially the belly dance moves of Arabia made her songs and videos the most seductive of the 90s.
This world tour also turned her fortunes upside down and true to her name Aaliyah (translates as 'Exalted one', 'most high' in Swahili) spent the money on the much needed expenses of her family and friends.

Let Me Know
Let Me Know
Let Me Know
Let Me Know
Let Me Know
When I feel what I feel, sometimes it's hard to tell you so
You may not be in the mood to learn
What you think you know
There are times, when I find, you wanna keep yourself from me,
When I don't have the strength, I'm just a mirror of what I see
But at your best, you are love
You're a positive motivating force within my life
Should you ever feel the need to wonder why
Let me know, Let me Know
Laaaaa hahh Let me know
When you feel, what you feel, oh how hard for me to understand
So many things have taken place before this love affair began
But If you feel, oh like I feel, confusion can give way to doubt
For there are times when I fall short of what I say, what I say I'm all about, all about
But at your best, you are love
You're a positive motivating force within my life
Should you ever feel the need to wonder why
Let me know, Let me Know
Listen
Tell Me what it is (Tell me what it is)
There's no need to make believe (make believe, no need to make believe)
Look beyond your words (look beyond your words)
Try to find a place for me (Try to find, find a place for me)
'Cause at your best, you are loved
You're a positive motivating force within my life
Should you ever feel the need to wonder why
Let me know, Let me Know
Let Me Know
Let Me Know
See, stay at your best baby
