Aaliyah - Remembering Our One in a Million Nine Years Later

So Young and Gone So Soon - Remembering

Aaliyah Haughton 01/16/1979 - 08/25/ 2001

WE Remember Aaliyah, the beautiful young singer from the D, who's star shot straight into the heavens. From the first time I heard her sing as a lil girl at Motown Studio B, I knew she was destined to become one of the great voices of my time. Her simple way of twisting her voice around a melody and making it her own.

She was truly One in a Million

Only Aaliyah.. she was an angel in every sense of the word.. here on earth. she left us in 2001 due to the stupidity of men who didn't think enough of the star to use proper protocols when her chartered jet took off; quite overloaded from the bahamas. Within moments everyone on the ground knew something was terribly wrong.

Then it happened.. the unthinkable.
Aaliyah Was Gone.. Snatched up in an instant

In a puff of smoke and flames, the young singer was snatched from our realm and propelled into her own premature superstardom. little did we know at that time just how much her voice would teach us. But now we are grateful, just to have had the chance to hear Lil Aaliyah singing her heart out that day. She will always remain one of our favorite young voices.

We saw 22 white doves and we knew You Were A Superstar Evermore, We Will Never Forget You Aaliyah,  You Are OUR Baby Girl..

This is a taste of the Omowale Drummers and Dancers 

This wonderful dance and drum troop exists because of one of our local Detroit Heroes - Baba Sundiata Kieta who passed away three years ago. He was one of the most well known Djembe players from the area. He traveled globally and trained drummers and dancers in traditional Yoruba Drumming and Dance for over 30 years. We will never forget you Baba for you are the door..

BadGalsRadio will be there covering the entire fete live with the family.

Friday's Feast is Healthy and Mucho Deliciousosooooo !

Hungry ?

Yes we're going to start making this a regular feature, so that folks know where we eat and where to go get the goodies. This particular restaurant is one that we've patronized over the years. Lots of Mexican Restaurants are competing to be the best at this and that. But this place is hands down the best in chicken. they put it on the grill outdoors - year round. even in snow storms they're out there barbequeing that chicken. And Yes they only barbeque chicken. no beef or pork. that's also why we like this place. we never have to worry about pork juice on the chicken.
