Aaliyah was only fifteen when Age Ain't Nothing But a Number landed in 1994, and this double LP brings back the debut that introduced one of R&B's most graceful voices.

Recorded in Chicago and issued on Blackground and Jive, the album arrived at the height of hip-hop soul, when R&B was swapping its satin for baggy jeans and boom-bap beats. Aaliyah fit the moment perfectly, cool and composed beyond her years, with a soft, airy voice that floated over hard-hitting drums. It went double platinum in the US and established her as a star while she was still in high school.

"Back & Forth" rides a laid-back, head-nodding groove and a breezy, effortless vocal that still sounds fresh. Her cover of the Isley Brothers' "At Your Best (You Are Love)" is a stunning showcase of restraint and tone, while the title track "Age Ain't Nothing But a Number" glides on a slow, sultry beat. "Throw Your Hands Up" keeps things playful and danceable, built for a summer block party.

The Aaliyah story begins here, a confident first step from an artist whose influence on R&B and pop still runs deep. Spread across double vinyl, those silky grooves finally have the room they deserve.
