SHE OUTTA CONTROL!!! Omg, I remember my mother had this recorded on a VCR tape lol! I think we watched it until the vcr finally broke, I ain't lyin lls!!! Mary Did THE DT!!
@@lvmtwins8418 her turning point is when she performed with Whitney singing ain’t no way on divas special she said it herself that’s when she knew she crossed over into mainstream audience and music hence when she started doing songs with sting, Elton John, Andre Barcelli, etc
@@DesTiny-tc7tsThe Black community know that she was a star even without mainstream. That performance she did with Whitney Houston did open doors for her to a white audience but her stardom started without mainstream! Mainstream came to her, she didn’t go to mainstream.
to me this is when Mary j blige became the diva that she is. around this time people criticized her voice and thought she wasnt as talented as the hype and soon her star would fade. this performance closed every mouth that denied her! me included..
the truth is, you can't teach this. It's only God given. She may not recognize her gift and down play it but she has the unique ability to make you feel like you are going thru the very thing she is singing about. I can only imagine the pain she's been thru in life, even with her being rich and famous. Her soul is genuine and hardcore. If i saw her in person, I'd let her know. Not even singers that are 10x's better, whether it be range, runs/riffs/performing etc. can do it. Many are called but few are chosen. I just want her to remember that and that God is never too far away.
I never noticed that there was a church background behind her when she took us there. WOW! One of the greatest show-stopping performances in the history of the Soul Train Awards.
she's always fired up for her performances lol. She gives you some kind of energy to making you feel the way She's feeling during that show. not really sure if you can get the same thing from other people from that era in music shows
I was in Highschool. This time was Sad Asf. She did the Share My World Album” with out Puff. Biggie and Tupac, we’re dead. So much other shit. Mary came with Burdens. And she Sung. U can’t Act what she Gave. She was Hurting, Healing, and Emotional
Mary J Blige is Real Truth her voice so powerful you can feel the emotions she felt cause it hurts. I thank you for blessing me with great music through out my life.
This was the best performance because she let the world know that she is out of control on those drugs and she trying to get clean. It was more to this ending cause when Alaiyah died Mary got clean
Theres other live performances of Missing You on here where she does a moment of silence for Pac Biggie Eazy, this was a great performance and this was Lady of Soul so they were smart in keeping this performance all soul cutting out the hip hop element.
