Mya never outsold Aaliyah. Ever. Stop. Mya was actually in danger of being dropped by Interscope with the release of her second album, and only managed to temporarily avoid the chopping block when "Case of the Ex" became a surprise hit. They soon after shuffled her to one of their lesser performing imprints, before ultimately letting her go.

And after years and several projects Tinashe is still in the "buzz" phase of her career, and is continuing to look for a breakout hit, something that Aaliyah graduated from with her first single. So that analogy is a lie as well. You detractors are utterly ridiculous with your exaggerations. Unlike most of you, I was actually alive and am old enough to clearly recall every moment of Aaliyah's career and don't things like Wikipedia to theorize how things might've been.

Commercially, Brandy and Monica's stats were bigger...however...Aaliyah - even with more modest stats - name value was *always* big enough on its own to rival theirs. Brandy and Monica, themselves, would tell you that she was their peer. Hell, Brandy tried to work with Aaliyah for another TBIM-type of collaboration before she died. And Monica had this to say about Aaliyah.

Ugh. I swear, some of you come across like sewer rats with ADHD. I've never seen such evil-spirited people in all my life. Even by low standard internet comments section standards. If your mothers read some of the bile you spew here constantly, and for years at a time, they'd probably be mortified.
