CL EXCLUSIVE: MARIO INTERVIEW CONFIRMED
Friday, December 7, 2007

♫ Mario - Crying Out For Me
R&B crooner and heartthrob Mario will be releasing an album next Tuesday, December 11th, so I’m sure he wants to let the people know, and even clear the air on a couple of things, or even just get a word out to his fans! Either way, CL has confirmed an exclusive interview with Mario very soon! Here, we will allow a chance to leave some questions for Mario in our comment section. We won’t be able to get all questions asked, but we will do our best to make sure you get the full exclusive scoop from Mario himself.
Please note that ONLY serious questions will be considered.
In the meantime, make sure you hit up Mario via MySpace and let him know that CL sent you!

I have a question? What did he think of his album and the songs from his album getting leaks almost every other day? Why was that the case and does he think that he is getting the correct amount of publicity from his label?

Ask him if him and Kelly Rowland still planning to tour together?
He has been in the industry since he was 14, ask him whats the major differences with artists since he first came out and now?
Ask him what’s the craziest thing a fan has done to get his attention or the weirdest gift a fan has given him.
Ask him what new music is feeling right now besides his new album go due out Dec. 11?
Ask him what is his favorite dish at the Waffle House?
And whats the biggest purchase he’s made . How does he feel about being underrated?

Heya, at the Jazz Cafe shows Mario did a rendition of ‘Human Nature’ By MJ. Would he be putting out an official version like as an Itunes bonus track or something similar?
Also thank Mario for being so courteous to me and my friends on Thursday night at Jazz Cafe.

Oh I love Mario!!!!
What sets him apart from the other singers?
I read that he likes older woman does he still? What does he think is sexy about a woman? How has he grown from Turning Point to Go?
If he would form a supergroup who would he pick to be in it?
Who inspires him musically?

Please let Mario know that his fans are really anticipating the new album. In the mean time I’m still listening to his old album
I heard that he started off in a group when he was younger. Does he still keep in contact with the other group members? Are any of them people we would know? Does he plan to tour or do any shows in St. Louis?

Angel u deleted my comment on ur post on urself. Was the truth too bitter?
http://concreteloop.com/2...-know-about-golden-brooks
Angel, Golden Brooks is finer than yo “skinny” self and ur “nice” shiny weave, so if u be dissin her and callin her a HAM u sure as hell must be a HHHAM.
As for those calling Angel a celebrity…WTF.
Angel is the number 1 hater that is why she made this site so all u people calling others haters for speaking the golden truth u need to recognise that she is THE hater. Maybe i should browse the site and show u lot other stuff shes said bout celebs.
Remember what she said about IMAN’s foot??? Lord knows how many greasy fat-filled bunions and corns are on her feet.
Angel, KARMA is a bitch init???? How are u ever gonna have the mouth to diss anyone bout anything????

I just want to let Mario know, I’m one of his biggest fans! I love him dearly. He touched my heart when I seen him so protective, so loving and respectful of his mother. His trials in life gave him a very mature voice and soul. Keep up the good work Mario…:-)

I like leeks questions and Dame he doesn’t like being asked what sets him apart from other artists, he hates having to compare,
I would really wanna know the crazy fan stuff.
I heard he was going in a different direction and didn’t want to work with neyo, did he find neyo to irresistable that he had to work with him again. Does he think he ows neyo for most of his success? I think he does.
Definitely how does he feel being underated cos he is definitely one of the best male singers out there.

I have a question.
We are seeing that many artist that came into the music game in their teens are having a very hard time transferring that success to an adult career (i.e Omarion, Sammie) How do you see yourself making this transition and what sets you apart from the other young men in this category now?

i want to know why his album has been pushed back so many times, because i’ve known “how do i breateh” since february or so, and i love this song
and ask him we he hasnt made any promotion in other countrys, for example germany, where i am living.
i never heard his single on radio and i have not seen any promotion for the single or his album till today
and, he is in the business for so long and had this huge success with “let me love you” if he can unterstand the development britney made or if he judges her like others do for her decisions
but i’ll be buying his album tomorrow, here in germany cds are coming out on friday
i wish him good luck for this album, because its going to be great i think, i only know how do i breathe and crying out for me ( i want to be surprised when i hear an album for the first time)

@27 I didn’t know that he doesn’t like comparisons which I could understand why. As far as Neyo in the XXL R&B magazine, Mario said he had no problem with Neyo and he is a big fan of his.

Damn love that Mario his voice is BANANAS!! I think you should ask him how he feels about the state of Music today? Ex. downloading, digital music, other ways to promote yourself myspace youtube etc.
I like the fact that he is a singer an RnB singer.

I would also like to know the answer to these question that people posted earlier:

damn my comment got cut off.. * it would also be cool if he brought Kelly to tour with him as well!
-Does he have any favorite TV shows?
I’d also like to hear him sing part of a song (or the whole damn thing, lol).. maybe “Music For Love” or “Skippin”

@46 Mario does owe alot of his success to Neyo sure he can sing his ass off. Let me love u was #1 for like 10 weeks maybe more. I know he doesn’t want to be typecast by that song but it is a great song.

STFU and get a Real life you stupid ass, ugly, hating ass bitch, this post is about Mario and while you are at it, change your name to MzReal Whack. ~~~~~~ I can’t wait to read the interview. I like #49 wonder where is the show he was supposed to be doing with his mother?.

I want to ask about his relationship with his siblings and also find out if he has enough faith in his mother to allow her to run his career, which I personally feel is a mistake. My heart goes out to people, young people and kids especially whose parents just arent there for them because of drugs or any other kind of situation. Once you put your child in the situation of making adult decisions and acting like an adult, their childhood is gone and they never get it back. My compliments to Mario on being an amazing, strong man.

Wow @ 58, anyway love you and your music Mario. Big fan and I can’t wait to see you hit up 106 and TRL next week.
My question is why you just now promoting the album? It seem like I just only hear about it on CL. Do you complain about your promotion like LL or do you just take what they give you? Why so many push backs? Do you feel that this album is complete (not just 2 or 3 good songs)? Do you feel confident that this album will do well?

THE TRUTH HAS SPOKEN
Saturday, December 8, 2007 /
See this is why I take all these blogs and so called writers with a grain of salt. Mario needs all the publicity he can so gives ya’ll an exclusive interview and all of the sudden he’s a crooner and heart throb (sorry need a second to stop laughing about both). Had he not done this ya’ll would be eating his ass alive about how generic and corny the album is….tsk tsk tsk…
63.
THE TRUTH HAS SPOKEN

Apparently using producer tricks to smooth out a voice that sounds like crap during a live show makes you a crooner these days.

Saturday, December 8, 2007 /
I have a question for Mario, can you please tell Angel to lay off the SPAM/ADVERTISEMENT on her website, now that she is getting big star to interview, advertisement is not so important. I understand they do this job on a part-time basis so that must be the reason they aren’t listening. Please Help us out Mario, Oh yeah can you loan me a $1,000 for a car, I am a college student an all, given that you might make it rain at the strip club a whole lot more than what I am asking this shouldn’t be a problem. LOL but I am serious! With that said best wishes to your mother.

Sunday, December 9, 2007 /
STARRYNIGHT, YOU ARE FUCKING CRAZY!!!!!! I JUST HAPPENED TO HAVE READ ALOT OF HIS INTERVIEWS IM A BIG FAN BUT I LOVE NEYO MORE, NO HE WILL NOT LEND YOU $1000.00 YOU CREEP.
73 HE DIDN’T HAVE BEEF WITH NEYO HE WAS JUST MAD THAT NEYO KEPT ON SAYING HE WISH HE WOULD HAVE KEPT LET ME LOVE YOU.
(in my opinion mario did the song justice)
GABOY I NEVER ACTUALLY THOUGHT OF THAT, IT MIGHT BE THAT HE USED HIS MOTHERS ADDICTION AS A STUNT BCOS OF THE RELEASE OF HIS ALBUM BUT I THINK THE QUESTION IS TOO SENSITIVE TO ASK.
