This came out after Heltah Skeltah dropped “I ain’t havin’ that” tho. Same beat but a lil dirtier and more rugged. Makes me wish that Meth was on that joint tho.
You could hear R&B slowly become EDM, Artists like Rhianna jumped on that, the rest couldn't sell out like that. Still some new age R&B that bangs though.
That song flopped when it came out. For some reason ppl were not ready for a more happy Mary J. And she went back to basics sonically with her hip hop soul sound of the early 90s. 2003 was a crazy summer for music release too. Beyoncé, Ashanti, Mya, Monica ALL dropped bangers at the time. The competition was stiff
Out of ALL the Mary J. Bilge videos that I’ve seen, this one looks like where she was the happiest ever! I can see and feel her spirit and vibe throughout this entire video. She looks at ease, her facial expressions are not depicting sorrow, she’s moving fluidly, and everything! Plus too as someone else stated, you could tell that this was a happy time beginning in her life. And I pray and hope that she can get back to that place again. With the right man. Because Lord knows she’s been through enough already.
.. She’s a Capricorn ♑️ , and she was 30 I think when this song came out. They say when a Capricorn Woman hits her early 30s she starts to get more confident in herself, and possibly finds her true love ❤️ 💕 ❤️💕 Love you Mary
Thanks for your love and support towards my career, I really appreciate you for your love and support I hope you never stop listening to my music 🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵
From what I've read, I honestly don't think that anyone else can truly comprehend what makes Mary J. Blige the queen of hip hop and soul. Mary represents the good and the hood in all of us, by being able to eloquently convey a message of; pain, love, sorrow, and passion in a format that us urban folks can relate to while being respected by whites. Mary represents our mother, sisters, daughters, aunties and friends that us around the way girls grew up with. This is what truly makes her the undisputed queen and a living legend. 🇿🇦🤷🏽♀️👸🏽
0:52 - when she starts walking down the street HITTING each beat -- that face, the hair, those LEGS ... i could watch this video every day for the rest of my life and never get tired of it!! luv u MJB!!!!!! (The other song on this lp that KILLS it is "willing and waiting")
Daniel Robbins jaz-o told DJ relly rel that Mary j blige was stuck up.he saw Mary j blige around this time and tried to holla and she just laughed.she cringed up and gave jaz-o the gas face.
This was slept on for real along with the entire 'Love & Life LP SMH😒😒!! As a true MJB fan, I supported it and still do nearly 16 years later!! Diddy and Meth went hard on this track and it was also 🔥🔥FIYAH🔥🔥 during summer 03'!! #QueenOfHipHopSoul #MJBfan4eva #NobodyCanTouchDaQueen #BadBoy
My fave Mary J video she was lookin’ sizzlin’ HOT in those outfits and her dance moves were impeccable. 2003 was definitely her best year, others will debate but idc this was Mary at her peak imo!
the era when Diddy was in almost every video hahahahahaha, this is a underrated Gem, those sport hand wrists era not gonna lie I had a few of them hahahaha even wore them, man music at this era everybody was just happy and had there own style. Take me back G.
I don't know what it says about me that I remember when they had an episode showing how this video was made on BET. Damn. Such an underrated Mary tune.
I adore Mary & this track is a straight banger! You can tell she was in a new phase of happiness + growth during this time in her life & career. She looks amazing & sounds amazing. Luh me some Meth too!
This was obviously an attempt to recreate a new kind of "All I Need" and they DID IT!!! That sample with the bass makes the beat SICK and it's not a copy of "All I Need". It definitely hit its target of being another Mary and Method hit! I remember this coming out!
