Mary J Blige on doing a Verzus: “I could just put on the What’s The 411 album and walk away…”

Mary is right.
Her bag is endless.
I saw her at Essence Festival in 2018 and she went 3 straight hours all HITS.
And still had some she didn't get a chance to do.
Toni is the only person who can remotely stand a chance hit for hit with Mary.

Peace King.
I think you are misunderstanding me and the format that the “Verzuz” is built around. You are focusing on “Faith Evans” - the person. I kinda pulled a name outta the hat who had a decent first two albums, comparing it to just Mary’s first two (which are nearly un-fuk-wit-able…).
Again, remember the format that they have to have about ten songs, and sometimes their DJ’s sneak a few snippets in in-between sets. In no particular order here are a few from Faith’s first two:
1. Soon as I get home
2. Aint nobody
3. You used to love me
4. Love like this
5. All night long
Now that’s just off the first two. I’m positive I can find five more. So she would be able to hold her on in the verzuz format. I am not On paying careers or the people themselves. Simply that she has a few that can stand up in that competition.
I saw all them and Mary can and has held her own.. Toni Braxton..lol.. I saw her in vegas.. I was like what is this shit.."High School Musical". FOH.
Michael Jackson made Pop but niggas was talking about a battle with Prince. So what difference does it make.
Who can go up against Mary?
It has to be more than just vocals cause there are a million and one better vocalist but it needs to be a female that has been around as long,has had the same success as Mary or better,has some hits whether she's featured on or written.
I said Missy but that's just to easy for Missy cause she's had hits but has written more songs for others than herself.
It remind me of Babyface vs Teddy,babyface had hit after hit,some shit a lot of people didn't even knew he wrote for other artist so much so Teddy took a break and never came back....word to Guy and Blackstreet lol

Mary is probably the Goat in this type of challenge. But she smoking that shit if she thinks she could win on the 411 alone. Lauryn is to fucked up and has a hand full of hits. Mary would walk her dumb ass.
I think Janet could hold her own against Mary…
Sade??
People said the samething about Aretha not being the best singer against other female artist like Patti Labelle which is true but how many female solo artist have the hits and material that Aretha does?not many,not even Gladys.
I was thinking Missy E might,especially if she includes artist that she's help from Nicole Wray,Jazmine,Tweet,Monica,she's held them up and Nicole Wray could go up against Mary but she's just not as popular but the material is there.
Just leave it as is...

Different vibe; I’m not sure that would be a good vs battle
White people, there’s lots of them
Good, haven't listened to her since the first album.
Probably the worst thing I ever did was go to a Janet Jackson concert in 2015. My opinion of her talent dropped like a rock right after that performance.
Janet goes back 40 years
and that's more pop than R&B based. It wouldn't be a good match up IMO.
Has she completed her payoff to Kendu?
Don't forget marry got alot of guess appearances..
Jay-Z..Nas..lox..method man..lil Kim..Vado.. .etc...
Bruh she run off her street shit in a mega mix like the lox did dip set with that ladies mix an nobody gonna be left standing but maybe missy..
MAYBE ..
