At just nine years old, Aaron Carter released his debut album — Aaron Carter — in 1997. He followed that up with the release of his sophomore album in 2000, Aaron’s Party (Come Get It), which produced his most well-known hits: “I Want Candy” and “Aaron’s Party (Come Get It).” He released two more albums until 2002, and then took a 16-year break from releasing records until dropping his comeback album, LØVË, in 2018. Aaron’s also famous for his appearance in that one iconic episode on the Lizzie McGuire show!
Aaron is also known for being the little brother of Nick Carter, another famous pop star who belongs to the Backstreet Boys. After Aaron’s death, Nick has continued to pay tribute to his late brother, despite the fact that they were previously estranged.
