What good is writing your own music if it isn't acclaimed or gets you no where with your career, and vocally Aaliyah was much better than Ciara I mean just look at both of their white house Christmas performances and Ciara was flat and a little off key. ..again Aaliyah's voice may not be to your liking but just because YOU didn't like it doesn't mean she was just ok and comparing her to others who have not displayed half the techniques she has is laughable.
