Mary is alright. I like some of her songs and some just make me puke
like deep inside and her murderous remake of natalie cole's classic our
love. She is genuine when she sings. I have never been driven to buy one
of her cd's. I will admit her latest two singles off her new cd are catchy
and definitely more tolerable than that garbage cd alicia keys has out.
Don't laugh at my funk
This funk is a serious joint

And most of the time she sounds great!
Sometimes live she goes a little crazy but the properties of those crazy performances are an endearing quality of hers.

Ok what has this woman done different from other female singers other than steroids. I think she blows in the bad way!! She rips off other songs and they all sound alike. Queen of Hip hop my aunt fanny!!


She got that title because at the time, no other female arrtist were singing over Hip Hop Driven beats ... like it or not it's her title


That's very true and that's exactly why she's overrated. She helped to cheapen music.

why is it you have to talk down about the music you don't like? it's one thing to admit something is not to your taste and a total other to continually waste energy disparaging it. shrug

hmmm She's alright,I guess.I don't like her remakes though.Like Mariah Carey,she's just not very good at interpreting other artist's songs.Even Chaka Khan wasn't too impressed with Mary's lame version of "Sweet Thing".

She did a better job on "Sweet Thing" when she did it live for Uptown Unplugged. She was trying to copy Chaka too much on the album version (but I don't think it's bad at all). Her best cover is probably "As" with George Michael.

When I start saying that country and classical musicians have no talent, then your comment would be valid. As for downing shit hop, it continues to exist and so do I. It will remain that way until one of us leaves this earth.
