Check out the new video from Mary J. Blige entitled, “Stronger”. The song is the title track for the upcoming Lebron James Basketball documentary, More Than Game (in select theaters on October 2nd) and features screen caps from the doc throughout the video.
Mary’s 9th studio album, “Stronger”, is expected to hit stores on November 24th via Geffen Records and she will be releasing the video for “THE ONE” (featuring rapper/singer Drake) sometime next month.
The demo version by Esther Dean and Chris Brown is sooo much better then Mary’s version. Video is bullocks -> basketball bladiha..
I Love the song.☺☺☺☺———-She is my favorite. Just saw her on milllionaire personals site ————————————-A f f l u e n t B a c h e l o r s . c o m —————————– last week. I am wondering what kind of relationship she is seeking on that site.Is she single again now?☺☺☺☺
Wow…i’m so breath-taken by all you haters hating on Chris Brown and Mary J. Blige. This woman is a LEGEND and yall still wanna hate. Smh…just like Michael Jackson. All ppl did was make fun of the poor guy and then when he died, everyone wanted to praise him all over again. It’s just so sad.
I personally think the video was cute, and i wish CB the best. He did a FANTASTIC job writing the song and i love to hear him blowing in the backround. I just hate how some ppl say he can’t sing, cuz it’s not true. The boy can really blow. There’s a song called “I Needed You” and “This Christmas” he sings and when i heard him sing it, it kinda blew my mind because i never knew he could sing that way…that kid is definetly talented and i will be looking forward to seeing the movie and buying this song on itunes.
this shows chris growing as a writer the boy is very talented cant deny that..Mary is that chick..i prefer the old mary but this song is good..the lady can blow and SHE IS THE QUEEN..all these rihanna stans are just mad and hoping chris wil lwrite her another hit.. please money talk and if she paying chris do your thing
I co-sign with No. 62: I can’t believe all the shade 9I say shade cause I am so sick of the word hate) that is being thrown towards Mary J. She is a LEGEND! You may not like everything she puts out, but these comments are totally out of line! Who cares what her hair looks like. She has more than paid her dues and can rock any hair style she wants. That’s the problem now with the industry, we praise looks and style over actual talent! So many people said horrible things about MJ, another legend, but when he dies every body changed their tune and started praising him again. SMH! I can’t help but think some of these comments are coming from bitter Rihanna stans who are upset about CB being in the track. FYI , the boy can sing, and he has more than proven himself as a talented songwriter. Don’t forget he wrote one of Rihanna’s biggest hits’ Disturbia’! So yeah she may have more No. 1 hits than him, but it’s because of talented songwriters who write for her. This song he wrote is beautiful, and Mary did it justice! Keeping doing your thang Mary j. and CB and don’t let no of these ignorant fools get in your way!
@ 53: If CB couldn’t sing, then I doubt Mary would have kept him on the track!
@ 54; It’s really sad to see someone who claims to be “BackingBarack’ say such rude, ignorant and hateful things about a black women. I really hope you are not a black man, because you are truly a disgrace to your race. You really need to grow up! Maybe you have some deep personal issues that you need to address with yourself, because all of your comments seem to be bitter and hateful towards women in general. I can’t imagine someone like you actually having the intelligence to back someone like Barack. People like you would probably shame him.
@ 66 shut the eff up. why do u care what i type. ignore what im saying and stop spending so much energy towards me. i see u reply to me quite often. im sorry but im agreeing with others and stating my own opinion which is the truth. mary needs to burn and give up that blonde. she looks like a fool along with tyra, eve, and beyonce. its teaching young girls that they can only beautiful with blonde hair. also, it shows that mary still til this ancient age is unhappy with herself and insecure about her own beauty.
also, i still dont think she is a great singer. never did and never will. that bet honor show was a joke that they did for mary. mary should be singing at a honor show for anita baker not the other way around. anita is a legend and should not be a highlight or a feature serenading mary j blige who is nothing compared to anita. but i digress, u ppl r deaf and blind bc she is not a great singer. yes she is ok but just average just like the video. and im really glad she kept the video classy and cute tho. so go play with ur mother and fathers genitals and stop stalking me. worry about who u are backing and urself instead of who i am.
@ 67: You just proved my point and you and you don’t even realize it. You truly do sound ignorant and bitter! You prove that everytime you post a comment! No I have never responded to you before, ever! But I canstantly see your long ridiculous ass rants about female artist, mostly black, and they have nothing to do with the topic. You call her a ‘fool’ and a ‘dirty greasy project chick’ who is uncouth. Do you even know the meaning to that word! It describes you better! I don’t know her (or you for that matter) personally, but I put money on it that Mary has more class and has better self esteem than you!. You are truly the definition of ignorance! You may be stating your opinion, but it is far from the truth! You need to learn the difference between the truth and an opininon. Once again, I hope you are not black, because you are a disgrace to your race. You really need to grow and work on what ever issues you have with yourself, because calling people hateful and racist names shows you lack of maturity. Furhtermore, you should think about changing your screen name, because I am sure Barack would be embarassed having someone like you ‘backing’ him.
P.S. Don’t bother responding because I am really quite done with you.
~ I refuse to argue with ignorant people because no matter how many valid points you make they will always think they are right. Just say your peace and keep it moving.~ Remember that folks!
My comments were directed at #68.
@ 68: Um..yeah sweetie EVERYBODY feels the same way # 68 feels. We just never bother to respond to your ignorant ass! Your comments are always long, ridiculous, racist rants that have nothing to do with the topic! You try to use big words that you obviously don’t even know the meanings to. Take their advice and GROW UP!! They ain’t speaking nothing but the truth!
I love Mary and this song! CB did a great job too! Kudos to them! The vid is alrgiht to. I don’t know what people were expecting, Mary’s videos aren’t exactly legenday! She doesn’t need to sell sex and be over the top in her vids! She has talent people! She is a legend! She is the Queen of RnB soul! It’s obvious people bashing her look and her vocal ability are people who clearly don’t know what music is! Ya’ll favorite artist are probaby Britney Spears, Lady Gaga, and Rihanna! Learn to appreciate real music and talent and stop praising looks and style!
Oh, yeah…No. 68: Everything number 69 said is true! Just try to soak it all in, it will work for you in the long run! Intelligence goes a long way, ignorance doesn’t!
Whoa! Whats up with all the hateful comments directed towards Mary! Damn! Can ya’ll just comment on the song and the vid. Geez! Anyway, I luv this song! CB did a great job writing (if he did) cause I still haven’t gotten confirmation on tha yet. Mary to it to a level that Esther and Keri could never reach. Thats why she is the Queen of Soul and forever will be!
To:BackBarack; FUCK YOU! I been waiting a long time to say that your lame ass for a while now!
Luv the song and the vid. Mary is the greatest! And to No. 55: Grow the hell up and GTFOH with that bullshyt you keep spouting! Mary can rock any wig she chooses to! She is the epitome of class and elegance and is far from uncouth! It doesn’t matter where she came from, but where you go in life. Mary has come along way! She has paid her dues and earned respect from the people that matter! She has millions of fans all over the world who have been inspired by her music appreciate her stlye. She stays true herself and her style. She could give a damn about ignorant lil fools like you have nothing better to do than talk about superficial BS. Grow the fuck you illiterate lil coon! Kudos for to 68 for putting your ass I his place!
Like the song, Mary’s version is starting to grow on me! I still like Esther Dean’s version better, but I guess Mary won out over her! She is the most established as an artist! She did her thing though, put some soul into it! I ain’t mad you mary keep doing your thing!
LMAO off at anyone who think Keri ‘s version is better than Mary’s! Keri can’t hold a note to save her life! Her whiney ass voice can’t touch Mary’s vocals on this song! Mary is the Queen for a resonn and she put soul and meaning into this song. CB sounds kinda sexy in the background too. Luv his vocals! Lol! The video is okay, nothing too spectacular, but it suits the song!
Lol @ all the people responding to that fool ‘BackingBarack’! Like seriously people, you’re only adding fuel to the fire! He probably tearing up his keyboard right now trying to respond to all ya’ll mofo’s! He be on here every damn day posting like 32 comments never making any damn sense! Ain’t ya’ll use to him by now! Just don’t give him the time of day and hopefully he will go away! Let’s all try and see if it works!
Dang what’s wrong with some of ya’ll! Mary did a great job on this song and she looks beautiful in this video! Even with her blonde wig that everybody seems to be so concerned with! I mean really, what did ya’ll expect? Its very simple and classy and it goes with the song. Besides Mary killed it on this song! Her vocals are on point! I understand everybody has an opinion, but damn don’t be so nasty! You can voice an opinion without being so rude.
I’m really starting to feel this song! luv the video too. Mary looks beautiful in it and it’s very simple. Can’t wait for the new album Mary!
@ 68 I really wish somebody would beat the living hell outt you! Grow the hell up and stay off the internet!
@ 68: I totally agree! Some people just have no damn sense! People come on a blog and put their ignorance on display! SMH!
Lol! Ya’ll now damn well that BakingBarack is some drag queen low self esteemed loser who is just jealous of Mary’s beauty and success, as well as the all the other women he mentioned! You know gay dudes be hating on women harder than other women! You can tell by his comments he hates himself, probably wishes he was a talented women himself! He hates what he see’s when he looks in the mirror so he takes his frustrations out on them via the internet! Its so obvious! Give up you fairy!
I like the song and the vid! The lyrics are so beautiful and Mary really put soul and emotion into the song. I don’t anyone could have done it like her! Go Mary!
@ 68: ‘so go play with ur mother and fathers genitals and stop stalking me.’ You make comment like that and you wonder why poeple think you are ignorant and need to grow up! You really do! You embarass yourself.
normally i wouldn’t like a song like this (i’m more into indie rock) but for some reason, mary has the power to make me like it
ummm Keri Hilson’s version of this song sounds better
love this song!
I ain’t mad at ya at all Miss. Blige. I’m loving this song. She looks and sounds good. She’s giving you vocals that compliment the track well and the overall message in the song is conveyed through her voice. I’m anxious to see what she’s been working on and ready for her to hit us with that album!
I loved this song.. Mary is that Queen don’t get it twisted..
This song is very powerful.
The perfect person sang it.
U know it’s a hit when the studio version give you chills, imagine how Mary is gonna kill it live.
She is the epitome of success. She has one of the greatest careers in the game.
@69 first of all ur the ignorant one. u are replying to urself since i am #68. get that right first
second u claim im ignorant but love to reply to me. get over urself and i can back whom i please. barack doesnt mind:)
i know the difference btwn opinion and truth idiot but the truth is mary needs to love herself. which is a fact. that blonde is not cute. ur greasy azz is probably rocking a dandruff filled sewn in blonde dry weave typing away while patting ur head cause it itches. chile, get a life! ur a disgrace to females urself.
aww did i push a button? did my comments speak to ur inner nigga mentality? u def have to be a ghetto project too if ur feelings are hurt. such a shame. at least mary got out the ghetto, lets see how many welfare checks it takes for u to collect to get u out.
@ 92: Ur kidding right?! Please just give up while you think you are ahead! You embarass yourself every damn day! Take everyone’s else advice grow up andnd less time on the internet talking that dumb ish!
@ 92: I usually just stick to the topic and ignore peope like you, but I just could not resist this time. You do realize everybody feels the way same way about you as #69? You keep using the word ‘ignorant’ but it is obvious you don’t really know what it means. That word really does describes you perfectly! No one mentions the ‘ghetto’ except for you. Normally the people who resort to using racial sterotypes towards other people, are the ones that fit that description best. People who resort to name calling and criticizing someone’s looks, (especially someone that you can’t see are the ones that have low self esteem and are insecure with themselves. Notice how #69 responds to you without slinging insults and insinuating things that you obviously couldn’t know about a person sitting behind a computer screen. ‘Nigga mentality’ (as you call it) is probably all you know, that’s why you keep bringing it up. No one else has, except for you. You must be very familiar with it. You should really consider everything that we are saying and work on making yourself a better and more intelligent person, because ‘ignorance’ is something that you personify. If you can’t have a discussion with someone without using profanity and all the name calling then yes, you are ignorant. It is so disheartening to see someone who supports our new president to a point where they want to use his name, and then turn around and say the horrible,obnoxious and even racist things you say about people you don’t even know. It is even more troubling to think that that these comments are coming from a black person. Did you even get Obama’s message? You really do have a lot of growing up to do. Start now. Ignorance is NOT bliss.
My heart aches for #92. So much that I wish he would just off himself already and get it over with! That way he can put himself out of his obvious misery and then we can all back to our happy lives.Just die loser! Lol!
I loooove this song. I was really feelin Keri version at first, but Mary’s verion is starting to grow on me now. She looks great in the video! Luv Ya Mary!
I like the song a lot, the words are beautiful.Mary looks good in the video as well Maybe people should comment on the song and video not superficial azz things like what kind of wig she’s wearing! SMH! Like seriously, some of ya’ll really need to grow up! There is one person in particular but I’m not going to mention who that fool is! They know who they are!
I like this song, I luv the fact that CB wrote it! He really is a talented songwriter! At the end of the day, his talent will prevail! Big up to Mary for doing an excellent job on this song and for keeping his vocals on it!! Keep doing ya thing CB and Mary can’t nobody hold you down! VA Baby!!
@ 92: You need to get yourself some business! Ignorant ass fool!
Wasn’t really feeling the song at first, Mary tends to scream too much for me, but more I listen to it, the more I like it. The words are really deep. Can’t believe CB wrote this! Who would thought he could write something like this! Gotta give the boy his props, he is a talented songwriter. The vid is just ok, nothing special. Mary looks good though.
If Keri sounded better u r foolish Mary approaced it like a diva dnt get me wrong keri have a nice version but Mary made it a classsic thats already get reconized so Mary Is the Queen .
lol
some of ya’ll are trippin on this post. now i dont usually agree with backingbarack at all but im sorry she/he is right this time around.
mary needs to let that blonde go.
ever since she came out with real love, it never looked right on her.
plus mary proves to be an ignorant person and needs to go back to school. she should get an education to enlighten herself.
on to other things, i love me some lebron!
What the fuck does that havce to with the topic! Why are you being racist! Grow uop you clown!
i love this song! mary j did her thing but i feel keri hilson’s voice fits this song better
@ 93 ur so lame resorting to posting under different names. glad i create in u such energy
have a nice life. loser!
Really not feeling this. I love Mary, but not this song.
THATS A VERY AMAZING SONG. I KNOW THAT ITS A SONG FOR LEBRONS MOVIE BUT IT ALSO REMINDS ME OF MY FREIND(GUY) BECAUSE OUR RELATIONSHIP IS THAT SONG. I REAAAAAAAAAAAAALLY LOVE THAT SONG. MARY HAS DONE IT AGAIN, THATS WHY SO HAS LONGIVITY!!!!!!!
