 Age Ain't Nothing But a Number Jan 06, 2008
Aaliyah's debut features a pleasant mix of r&b/hip hop/pop that appealed to a wide audience. What also helped fuel interest in her was the fact that she refused to reveal her age and had some mysterious ways about her during interviews. I know it piqued my interest enough at that time such that I'd try to watch all of her interviews to see if she was really only 14 or 15 years old OR if she was actually in her 20s.
I loved the fact that there was no negative rivalry mess started up between Aaliyah & Brandy since they were both bringing individual flair to the r&b field. It was cute how people called Brandy, a young Whitney Houston while Aaliyah was being touted as a younger Janet Jackson.
This is an interesting album featuring production from then up & coming R Kelly where he utilizes hard hip hop beats in contrast to Aaliyah's sweet airy vocals.
The standout tracks to me are: BACK & FORTH, AGE AIN'T NOTHING BUT A NUMBER, AT YOUR BEST (YOU ARE LOVE), I'M SO INTO YOU, STREET THING & NO ONE KNOWS HOW TO LOVE ME QUITE LIKE YOU DO (although a little monotonous, I still love the beats).
I'd recommend it to Aaliyah fans and to those who are curious about mid-90s r&b.

 Too light and chessy. Mar 12, 2007
The only good song is "Back & Fourth", the rest of the songs do not stand out all. they all sound very cheesy.On this album she has no dept no nothing,if you want a good Aaliyah pick up her 2001 self titled album "Aaliyah".

The beginning of my love for R&B began... Jan 25, 2007
With this cd. My first compact disc purchase when I was 14, due to the song "Back and Forth." I enjoyed Aaliyah's style and song interpretation, so when I bought this cd, I was amazed at her vocal talent. Taking aim at the Isley Brothers with her version "At Your Best(You are Love)", and completely updating it and acheiving kudos for it? At 15 years of age, not an easy task to acheive. I will forever listen to this cd, with rememberance of walking a mile to the local store to buy it, and turn me on to the wonderful world of R&B.
