Sexy: We Need a Resolution 2001 Sexy Scenes

Released a few weeks before her tragic, early death, Aaliyah’s eponymous third album leads with We Need a Resolution (2001), a single that many critics cite as one of her best. Featuring production assistance and a cameo from Timbaland, the R&B platter deconstructs a failed romantic relationship, asking who should be blamed for the break-up before begging for some kind of resolution. Aaliyah’s sensuous vocals work effectively to make listeners feel her pain, but Paul Hunter’s music video has the opposite effect, making viewers ecstatic that the R&B diva is ostensibly back on the market. A word of warning: watching Aaliyah deliver a flurry of alluring dance moves might make you weepy that her career was cut tragically short.
