    • Mary J. Blige Goes Worldwide With “Each Tear”

      Written by The IPS in Videos on Mar 4, 10


      Mary J. Blige is going international with her latest album, and as such, she’s done an Italian version of “Each Tear” with Italian star Tiziano Ferro. She’s also doing 4 other versions — one with Australian artist Vanessa Amorosi, UK & Cash Money artist Jay Sean, another singer named Rea Garvey and Somalian-Canadian artist K’Naan.

      She’s also doing a bunch of additions and subtractions on her International releases, as usual, that will have new songs and other goodies.

      The “Each Tear” video from Italy is basically a black & white affair that features the two duetting and other “encouraging” imagery. Nothing really to write home about, and definitely not such a stylized affair as her other videos up to this point. Will we get a US version?

      Mary’s getting classier and cementing her legendary status worldwide…

      All Mary J. Blige EVERYTHANG! [Live Concert & Walmart Performance]

      Written by The IPS in Blogs on Feb 17, 10

      Never been to a Mary J. Blige concert? Well if you haven’t, let me tell you, it’s a damn near religious experience. I kid you not. People crying, waving their hands, Mary on stage preaching and testifying, screaming, howling, GOING IN. I took a yt person with me, and I think even SHE was moved to tears if I remember correctly.

      Well, last night Mary J. did a live set for David Letterman from the Ed Sullivan Theatre in NYC, and if you missed the 30 min. live broadcast, here it is. Mary may not be a vocal whiz-kid, but she holds her own and wields her catalog of hits like a formidable weapon. A Mary concert is about the experience, and she usually backs up her energetic shows with a tight band and excellent backgrounds, so even if she misses a note or two, they are there to catch her when she falls. Peep it above, AND, after the jump, check out Mary’s Walmart Soundcheck performances where she performs some MORE new and old hits.

      2010 BET Honors Recap, Live Blog & Performances

      Written by The IPS in Blogs on Feb 2, 10

      The 2010 BET Honors aired last night (February 1) on BET and they honored Queen Latifah (Media), Whitney Houston (Entertainment), Diddy (Entrepreneur), Dr. Ruth J. Simmons (Education) and Keith L. Black, M.D. (Public Service) and was hosted by Gabrielle Union. It was a classy affair all around, and BET did a great job with this event — there were no major gaffes in the production and it looked and sounded great!

      There were performances by Stevie Wonder, Patti LaBelle, Trey Songz, Jennifer Hudson, Kim Burrell, India.Arie, Jazmine Sullivan, Maxwell, Ryan Leslie, Mary J. Blige and Take 6.

      Best performance of the night went to Kim Burrell, HANDS DOWN. Kim Burrell came out looking great, sounding great and moving Whitney Houston to get out of her seat and up into praise & worship. I promise you church was had in that place!

      Worst performance of the night went to Maxwell, who is not having the best performances lately. At all. Dude was pitchy, cracking, and all over the place. It was not great AT ALL. I am so disappointed in Maxwell lately…you will see/hear it for yourself below.

      For the recap, performances and tweets, hit the jump!

      Mary J. Blige Absolutely Feels It In This Live Performance of “I Can See In Color”

      Written by The IPS in Blogs on Jan 15, 10


      MARY! Yes yes yes Mary. Please go in and all the WAY IN and let the Lord use you! I think I just went to church!

      My friend told me about the studio session in which Mary wrote this song. He played keys. HILARIOUS. He said Mary told him to play something, and was like, “Yeah, I like the color of that! It’s like that Donny Hathaway color! That’s it the color of that is dope!” He said he had NO IDEA what she meant, but whatever, it’s Mary J. Blige!

      She needs to do a blues/R&B/soul album. Leave all these synthesizers behind and get her some B3’s, Rhodes, drums, stand up bass, violins here and there and….man…that’d be crazy.

      Please hire me as your A&R MJB. I got youuuuuuuu.

      Omarion Actually Sings Again With “Speedin’” + Mary Wants To Get “Closer”

      Written by The IPS in New Music & Reviews on Jan 5, 10

      Audio clip: Adobe Flash Player (version 9 or above) is required to play this audio clip. Download the latest version here. You also need to have JavaScript enabled in your browser.

      Omarion – “Speedin’” [Listen + Download]

      Finally, a song which Omarion is actually singing on. And dude sounds good too! I am so pleasantly surprised by this one right here. “Speedin’” was produced by 253 out of Seattle, WA and is taken from Omari’s album which comes out next week (Jan. 12).

      “I Get It In” and “Hoodie” were cool and all that, but that sing/rap/monotone vocal he was rocking got old REAL fast. Sounding like Rihanna’s lil’ cousin with all that. Now about that album cover — he looks 12 and it’s Photoshopped to death! HAHAHA. It’s the small favors I guess.

      Do people really care though? I feel this younger generation has overall been getting a failing grade. For real. Omarion and Mario are two of them that I can actually stand when the music is right though!

      Some Old & Some New With Mary J. Blige’s “Words & Music”

      Written by The IPS in Blogs on Dec 26, 09

      Mary J. Blige sounded pretty decent with her hallmark off-moments during her BET special that aired earlier this week “Words & Music”. She sung some new songs including her latest single “I Am” and even “I’m Going Down”. This new material pales in comparison but, you know, woman trying to stay relevant and keep up with the youngin’s in this economy and whatnot.

      I love her background singers!

      I reviewed the album previously if you missed it and feel free to share your thoughts with the rest of us about this performance below.

      The Obama’s Celebrated “Christmas In Washington” With Some Sanging

      Written by The IPS in Blogs on Dec 23, 09

      Usher tried his best to get his croon on on “Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas” LOL. But as they say, it doesn’t take all that to deliver a song Usher…I feel like there was a lot of “extra” done with this performance. A little flourish here and there is nice, but that performance seemed early round of American Idol amateurish. WWSS? (What Would Simon Say?)

      Mary J. Blige did “Oh Holy Night” and this song has tripped up many a singer LOL. Mary included, because those initial notes were rough and she didn’t recover too quickly after that. But when it came time to belt, Mary was STILL a little flat. LOL. She also sang “The Christmas Song” and sounded a lot better doing that song fortunately.

      I wonder if the Obama’s were pleased with the selection of singers. Justin Beiber also performed (one of the better ones actually), Sugarland, Rob Thomas amd Neil Diamond also performed. You can peep Justin’s performance of “Someday At Christmas” after the jump.

      Album Review: Mary J. Blige Trades Soul For Sheen on “Stronger With Each Tear”

      Written by The IPS in New Music & Reviews on Dec 21, 09

      Mary J. Blige – Stronger With Each Tear
      3 stars out of 5

      The Queen of Hip-Hop Soul has returned to the scene with the heavily anticipated album Stronger With Each Tear. However, most die hard fans will probably notice from jump that the one thing missing from this album is a heavy dose of soul, which has been replaced with studio perfection and template beats by big name producers and songwriters. The grit that is Mary J. Blige has been replaced by a sheen of synths, claps, kicks and all too familiar production, sounds and songwriting.

      Our track by track review takes you through the album, beat by beat. Get into it!

      The Ladies of R&B Hit Up “So You Think You Can Dance”…And Sing

      Written by The IPS in Blogs, Videos on Dec 17, 09



      J. Lo
      did her flop-first-single-now-being-called-buzz-single “Louboutins” and while she had redeemed herself from the AMA performance and fall with her performance on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, she lost all that goodwill with this performance. That overly loud performance lipsync track was TOO much; the dancing wasn’t as crisp and the routine was different (so that’s probably why), that big a__ shoes was just a sparkling monstrosity; and that chorus line ish was just…head scratching.

      I THOUGHT SHE REALIZED this was a flop, so why she still perform it? *kanye shrug* NEXT!

      Hit the jump for Mary J. Blige’s performance of “I Am” and Lunesta Leona Lewis‘ performance of “I Need You”.

      MJB Keeps It Classy In New “I Am” Music Video

      Written by The IPS in Videos on Dec 9, 09

      Mary J. Blige is all soft lenses and classy dresses as she doesn’t do much in this new clip directed by Anthony Mandler. It’s almost a 180 from the “The One” video, which was a lot of Mary getting her “Hip-Hop Soul” on.

      The two drastic views of Mary are exemplifying her career to me right now. This latest album of hers to me is seemingly largely unanticipated. I love Mary, I do, but none of the singles have really moved me, including this one. Especially with its “Everything” sounding intro and sweeping visuals in this clip.

      No doubt Mary looks good and sounds good, I just wish the music was as compelling as her choices of designer dresses and sets where the videos are shot.
