The absence of much of Aaliyah's music in the digital streaming space had been a point of contention for fans and her estate alike; the allure of the singer who was elusive in life has only grown in death. But One in a Million, her second album, lived on and has helped create a blueprint for countless artists, many of whom may not have even been born at the time of its release. More than the sleek construction of her R&B, in perfect lockstep with her hip-hop mien, it's the fluttery tone that remains inescapable. Instead of the fierce, in-your-face vocal acrobatics that defined the time, Aaliyah (in the first of her fruitful collaborations with the then-rising production/songwriting team of Timbaland and Missy Elliott) took a more hushed, vibes-y approach that gave off subtle seduction and effortless cool. She knew the power of aura and cultivated an air of mystery long before it became par for the course, and now it can be heard in context with her legions of progeny.
