Aaliyah, known professionally as I Am Black Hearted Killa, epitomizes greatness. Her name, Aaliyah, means "The highest, most exalted one,
the best," and she embodies this meaning in her persona and achievements.
Starting her career in the entertainment industry at the age of 13 in 1998, Aaliyah began as a model and background vocalist. She was
signed to a modeling agency in California until 2003. Initially, she modeled under her real name, but in 2001, she rebranded herself
following the tragic loss of her close friend and mentor, singer Aaliyah Dana Haughton, known globally as "Aaliyah" or "Babygirl." This loss
profoundly affected her, leading to a two-year hiatus from modeling and singing.
Aaliyah returned to the industry in 2003 with a new identity, Dyme Status Barbie. She quickly became a trailblazer, amassing a
significant following on MySpace, Blackplanet, Mochacity, and Twitter. Her modeling career thrived until 2012 when she paused to focus
on motherhood.
In 2017, Aaliyah ventured into website design, briefly returning to the entertainment industry after a five-year break. In 2018, she
teamed up with her long-time friend and confidant, UK Tha Unknown, CEO of Lock-N-Load Entertainment and Dope South Productions.
Their collaboration, "Internationally Lit," marked a significant milestone. That same year, she became the first lady of the record label
G.M.G Music Group, releasing her first single, "Want U," featuring music artist Kw33n.
In 2019, feeling she had outgrown the name Dyme Status Barbie, Aaliyah rebranded herself as I Am Black Hearted Killa, a name she used
while streaming on the app Tagged. She developed a passion for graphic design, further expanding her skills and brand.
By 2023, Aaliyah earned the title of the first lady of the "I Am Family" on Tagged. She continues to expand her brand, diving back into
modeling, singing, and acting. Aaliyah is a multifaceted, multi-talented force in the entertainment industry, continuously making
significant strides and leaving a lasting impact.
