: When Mary pushed the release date for her new album Growing Pains from November 20th to November 27th, she expected to be the only R&B artist debuting a new album that week. But a few days after Mary's decision, Beyonce announced she'd be releasing a live album and a dvd on that same very same date.
And the threat of going up against Beyonce was too much for Mary and her label. As of this morning, Mary J Blige has officially pushed back her album release two weeks - from November 27th to December 11th.
According to an insider over at Mary's label, everyone there is furious. MediaTakeOut.com exclusively learned that pushing forward Mary's release date is costing Geffen Records million of dollars. A Geffen exec told us, "[Beyonce's management] put her release against Mary's just so they could get the added publicity - but we're not playing into their game ... Best of luck to [Beyonce]."
*** thats sad mary was the *** back in the days selling millions but now she pushin her album so she dont flop im sad for her... go to www.myspace.com/dot171 go to www.myspace.com/dot171 go to www.myspace.com/dot171 go to www.myspace.com/dot171 go to www.myspace.com/dot171 go to www.myspace.com/dot171 go to www.myspace.com/dot171 go to www.myspace.com/dot171 go to www.myspace.com/dot171 go to www.myspace.com/dot171 go to www.myspace.com/dot171 go to www.myspace.com/dot171 go to www.myspace.com/dot171 go to www.myspace.com/dot171 go to www.myspace.com/dot171 go to www.myspace.com/dot171
Mary is grown and doesnt have time for the "Music Wars". Just because her album is pushed back or forward to not be release on the same day as another artist doesnt make her any less of an artist or any good. Mary is doing Mary and doesnt feel the need to compete and I agree. Mary already told yall......NO MORE DRAMA IN HER
*** MTO, YA'LL JUST USIN BEY TO GET PPL RILED UP, FACE FACTS THAT BEY AINT EVEN DO A *** COMERCIAL FOR HER DVD! MARY IS PUSHIN HER *** BACK BECUZ HER SINGLE IS TRASH, AND IT AINT TAKIN OFF LIKE BE WITHOUT YOU DID! SHE'S PULLIN A 50 CENT, HER TWO SONGS AINT IN NO ONES ROTATION RIGHT NOW! CUT IT THE *** OUT MTO LMAO! MARY IS SCARED OF HER OWN REPUTATION! LMAO!

LOL!!!!! Ya'll Mary stans crack me up. Queen or no queen of rnb... mary's sales can't even begin to touch beyonce's and thats not a matter of preference its just the honest truth. Beyonce sold nearly a mil in her first week alone and is well over tripple platinum now. Now although marys last album garnered plenty success. B'Day's numbers *** on the breakthru.

That Just Fine single aint gettin played NOWHERE, so for Geffen to save face they use Bey as an excuse, just admit that the single aint poppin like 50 did! LOL!
WHY DO PEOPLE SAY MARY IS WASHED UP??? IF SHE DIDN'T LAST THIS LONG IN THE GAME PEOPLE WOULD STILL MAKE NEGATIVE COMMENTS.
ARETHA, CHAKA, GLADYS HAVE ALL BEEN AROUND LONGER THAN MARY AND PEOPLE DO NOT SAY THEY ARE WASHED UP. MARY SHOULD BE COMMENDED FOR LASTING SO LONG IN THE DOG EAT DOG WORLD OF ENTERTAINMENT!
MTO, don't make me come ova dere wit my belt! lol

Now wait one cotton picking minute B is mediocre, average but, Mary J. Blige she supersedes all the rest granted that everyone is not built to face certain obstacles by the way when have you known B to face any real life hard situations? honestly I think under true pressure B would fold up like my lawn chairs. Now Mary she's the person you should invest your money in she's an artist not just a singer but a true artist that has allowed you to get to know the real person that she is no matter what the *** regardless if people talked negative about her, her actions, and her life she stayed true to herself and she always give the fans what they want and sometimes don't even expect much accolades to Mary J. Blige so B I'm going to ask you nicely the first time to step aside and go somewhere and find sit down and watch the real artist do her thing. Now say it with me her name is Mary J.

I am sick of these artist trying to tripple capitalize off of one album. Please I dont want to see no live beyonce. Mary has nothing to worry about. She makes real music, From Real love to Be wihthout you. Mary been had a greatest hits album and mixtape. Beyonce will be over in two years tops. Shes gonna have a little Joe Camel and get as big as a house and it will be over for her. She is washed up alrady, she cant shuck and jive forever. *** B better watch out Alicia Keys, you see her body in that gold dress in her new video and all that hair is hers. Mary has nothing to worry about. Thats right mary, show them you aint got no time for that. Piggy back your sales off of some lame not the REAL QUEEN.
I cannot believe that u believe this MTO ***!!!!! Bee is dropping a DVD of her concert that date and for thiose who know music. that date was chosen back in the summer. mary and bee dont even have the same fan base. Also i might add they are gorls at that. Mary and jay are really close. So believe MTO IF U WANT BUT IT IS A LIE! WHY WOULD MARY FEAR BEE....SHE IS A PLATNUM SELLI G DIVA WITH MANY YEARS ON BEE.....MTO IS STARTING ***!
MDL219
I DO agree with u on certain points but i don't think Beyonce is going anywhere(unfortuately) Me personally i'd rather hear Beyonce sing a ballot then grinding all over the place swinging all that fake hair. Even if she did have a baby and her body is not the same she will always have her natural singing talent.

*** THE MOST SENSIBLE POST I'VE READ ON MTO EVER.... PREACH HUN
lmao at standard, i tried begging earlier and didn't work lol
can someone explain this to me: why do people buy greatest hits by an artist when they have every cd of the artist, granted i can understand live, cuz I have Sade "lovers live" and its the ***, but I just never understand greatest hits by artists like Beyonce them who only been out of a couple of seconds......
Everybody loves Beyonce, but she really needs to go sit down some where. People are getting sick, and tired of seeing this chicks face. I mean this album wasn't so hot and she is steady trying to force feed it down our throats. I feel like she has been promoting varitations of this same wack *** album for years, and years, and years, and years, and years.....and years.
Beyonce take a break for a year, and give people time to miss you. Oh, and find better writers and producers for the next album. You fooled people liking this album because you had some bomb *** promotion.
@bibian,UGH,NO.
EVERYBODY DONT LUV NO *** BEYOCE. WTF R U TALKING ABOUT? BUT THE REST U SAID IZ TRUE. THAT *** NEED TO SIT HER FAT AZZ DOWN. SHE IS SHOVED DOWN OUR THROATS. TAKE A BREAK AND SIT YA FAT AZZ DOWN HO.
RE-F*CKING-LAX,THEN COME BACK OUT WITH A NEW BETTER ALBUM. CUZ B-DAY WAS HOT GARBAGE!!!!!
yea right....mary will sell anyway...I like beyonce but tired of hearing about her. I relate better to mary's music anyway. "Has anyone ever wondered how mary got that scar under her left eye. I read that pepa from salt *** pepa slashed her eye during fight over treach...???" Don't believe me do the research yourself you can google it.

Bey is not making a greatest hits album. She is releasing a live verison of her album, meaning you can listen to how she sounds on tour. Mary did the same thing
C......MY DUDE.....MY ***.....when it comes to Mary J. Blige....not Jill, not Erykah, not J.Hud but MARY J FYCKING BLIGE, homie stop!!!
I love Beyonce, but my love for Mary IS ETERNAL. That woman talks about *** that Beyonce can't even spell or fathom!!!! Mary sold 730,000 copies IN HER FIRST WEEK when The Breakthrough dropped, and this single JUST CAME OUT. Trust me, Mary don't got a *** thing to worry about, let alone a *** Beyonce Live CD!
***, Mary will have Beyonce WASHED!!! Point blank....C, just don't go there homie...you talking about Mary now!
Making me get angry in my *** class *** Harlem ***!!! LOL. J/***!!
Had to log in and comment on this 1st of all on MJB last CD her first single was not Be without you it was that song that had Jay Z on it Can't hide from love and like that single she has out now it wasn't a big seller. Beyonce as much as I love her as an artist is milking the hell out of her fans. She re-released bday twice (one in spanish) released a dvd video now she is trying to get in our pockets again. SIT DOWN B ***, have a baby or something. a letter was released on aol a few weeks back entitled go away Beyonce thought it was just MTO but it isn't http://blackvoices.aol.com/black_entertainment/bvbuzzcanvas/_a/sept-17-2007/20070916125709990001

You must not know homie, Bey go up against Mary, Mary will have her country *** signed to ***!!! RIGHT IN THE GRAVEYARD WITH GENUINE AND MONICA!! LMAO J/***
But honestly, Beyonce needs a rest. But then again paying for Solange's abortions, keep her father's nose cleaned and making up for House of Tacky Ones err Dereon must force her to shake her assless ***.

Nah I'm in class in my *** textbook was on the spacebar...can't wait to leave!! LOL.
@ Smitty
I agree homie, they are both the best at what they do, but believe you me, Columbia Records don't have enough money to match Mary's record sales! Cuz you know at times they buy they artists records!! Not sayin' I'm just sayin!
Mary has proven that is has staying power. You can still listen to songs Mary did way back in and feel good about it.
Beyonce is a different matter all together. When her career first started she was a good christian girl and she didn't subscribe to industry standard of sexy. But we all know that *** sells so now its "Shake my body, body. Touch my body, body." Along with little nip slips here and there, for dramatic effect.
Now imagine that, on wonder her tours do so well! People well pay good money to see a suprised worde *** it bound to happen, and again. But she makes it look so classy. Doesn't she?!
@ bklynrogue
columbia records aint got to buy beyonce's records..beyonce can record an album of her taking a *** and she will go platinum..just like mary can record an album *** and she will go platinum. I love em both but i hate when ppl try to come for beyonce like she dont sell records and her name aint in they mouth eryday
@ SBW...
You may have all of one persons cd but when ur in the car, u dont wanna have to switch CDs to get from song to song and God forbid ur CD player holds only one disc...you gotta find the other cd and eject the one thats already playing, put the new one in and then put the old one back in the book...Greatest hits CDs are convenient as hell! =)
@ Smitty
House of Dereon is poppin homie? You tell me the last chick you saw rockin that ***, and I'll tell you who's still rocking Isotoners!! LOL
But man, I feel what you saying, both of them are extremely talented, platinum-status acts. But some people on here (*cough* C *cough*) are really tryna come for Mary like she's some new chick on the block that Bey can squash. I'm just enlightening them!
beyonce? whatever happened to her & mariah's records being on the same week? since when the hell did mary j. & beyonce become rivals? they dont even have the same audience. mary could release her cd the same week as beyonce & it wouldnt make no difference. marys getting too insecure as she gets older. first shes trippin on keyshia cole, then mariah, now beyonce.
& what the is up w/ her calling her cd "growing pains"? i thought we were done w/ all the growing pains & the drama & all that ***. she's still tryna grow up huh? at 38? get it together mary.
I don't believe this because they have totally different fan bases. Anyway, nowadays who can avoid releasing an album around the same time as Beyonce. My only hope is that she finally make up the numbers she needs to not consider B-Day a flop. I think she will release and re-release until people forget about her sophmore album.
yall so silly :-)
OBVIOUSLY Beyonce is not releasing ANYTHING for your kind (you know the ones that feel she's overrated fat untalented needs to go away). She releases products for my kind (you know the ones that find her talented and WORTH spending money on that have been fans since No No No).
AND I DEFINITELY DON'T NEED NUNAYA "STANDING UP" FO ME AND MY POCKETS!
Ya really need 2 stop blaming her because:
YOUR FAVORITE WEBSITES post BEYONCE NEWS DAILY lol likes its beyonce4eva.com YOUR FAVORITE MAGAZINES put her on the cover YOUR FAVORITE NEWS PROGRAMS report on her YOUR FAVORITE MUSIC PROGRAMS keep her in rotation YOUR FAVORITE RADIO STATIONS Beyonce'd out YOUR FAVORITE ARTIST suffers from Beyonceitis LOL I jus thru that 1 *** there 2 ruffle ya feathers
BUT SERIOUSLY, if you put your envy/hate/disregard or wuteva u wish to call it these days aside, you would see she has NOTHING to do with it.
Write a letter to ya congressman LOL!!
Signed,
Beyonce Fan Destiny's Child Fan - minus Michelle but with LaToya and LaTavia (man I wish the original 4 could get back together and make an album 4 the US the FANS)
@lakersgirl LMAO
@smitty, Lil boy sit yo *** down if you think miss trannylicious bitch0nce is making 150 mil this year.
The beactch had to re-release her album, (FYI, Her album sales in the US is at 2 million. She sold quarter of this in 1 week HAHAHAHA)
Her World tour flopped, ONLY 8 SELL OUTS OUT OF 84 SHOWS (Most of them only sold 30 percent of the stadium)

And BklynRogue
I'm really starting to believe that the Keyshia Cole Bandwagon Movement is really getting MJB skin! Mary would never release a single this *** trash! Neva Eva, Eva Eva, She has always made good singles choices and last week MTO reported that Mariah is duckin Mary, and these people was actually gassin it! Who The *** Was MIMI runnin from! She wasn't duckin Mary! And Mary aint puttin no one on ***, Not Bey and for *** sure not Keyshia Cole right now, but she might end up there if she keeps puttin out these wack *** singles LOL!
THERE IS REALLY NO NEED TO COMMENT ON THIS STORY BECUSE MTO KNEW WHEN THEY PUT THIS *** *** STORY ON HERE THAT IT WASNT TRUE MJB IS THE QUEEN AND ALWAYS WILL BE BEYONCE WOULD HAVE TO DIE, COME BACK TO LIFE ,LEARN HOW TO SING ,THEN DIE AGAIN TO EVEN COME CLOSE TO MJB SO LETS STOP BEING BLINDSIDED BY HER BIG ***, AND ALL THAT HAIR AND GET REAL !!!!!!
I ain't a big Beyonce fan, but ya'll are trippin if you think Beyonce will be forgotten in 10, 20 years. Whether u like it or not, she's a legend and honestly...she will sing circles around Mary. Mary has sold records based on her image. She is the woman who other women can relate to and feel the pain and blah blah blah. She was built on drama and it skyrocketed.
Beyonce had to work extra hard to catch up with Mary's records sales this year. That is why she put out all that extra ***. But all that extra work still didn't hit the numbers Mary did. Now she wants to prove that she can hang with the best of the best i.e. Mary. Can she do it.
Essencially Mary and her team ain't fallen for a face off. Beyonce has to prove that she can compete with mary.
Please! Mary has old and new school folks listening to her music, while Beyonce's music is strictly for chicken heads and women with that, "I'll just use my booty to get what I need" mentality. Mary is SO above that. Furthermore, Beyonce is overexposing herself, making it obvious to people that she's a glory hog, just as she was in Destiny's Child. You see how when Jennifer Hudson was on top, Beyonce RE RELEASED her BDay album, and has constantly been in the news, tv, etc., so she can take the shine off Jennifer. BeYATCHe, you CANNOT outshine an Oscar, no matter how much you expose your naked a&& on stage. I'm not a Mary fan, but I rather listen to her over Beyonce any day. Mary's song speaks on everyday dilemma's...trials and tribulations of a black woman's struggle, while Beyonce is too busy composing lyrics about her booty, or how some man wants her body, or even how she has this preconceived notion that all women hate on her. That's typical bubble gum thinking. Only a woman stuck on herself thinks this way. Go Mary! BTW, if you wanna talk about dodging....I'm waiting for somebody to ask Beyonce why she never releases anything the same time Alicia Keys does. Probably because AK will kill her in record sales.
Oh God here we go...
C.....
98.7 KISS FM, 107.5 WBLS, even HOT 97 and POWER 105.1 be playing that! SO TAKE THAT ***!!! LOL. And it's new at that, it came out like a week ago, GIVE IT TIME! Just because you may not prefer it doesn't mean its trash!
Now you talk all this ish, but how many times you hear Beyonce play now on our market of NYC?! Huh?! Only on weekend mixes with ENVY AND KAY SLAY THATS IT!!! That new single she got with JT is trash!! U wanna go there Harlem World, then we can go there!! LOL.
And homie, MARY is not at all phased by a *** Keyshia Cole or Beyonce! ***, you must have not checked the billboards today my dude, Keyshia slipped to #6! Last I remember, the Breakthrough stayed at #1 it's 2nd week!! lol
***, please don't make me pit my beloved artists against one another C, AND BTW Mary can buy out *** if she wanted to! LOL.
I'm going to be honest here. Mary of course is the better singer. If Beyonce and Mary were to ever sing a duet together, Mary would drown Beyonce's voice out. Now on the other hand, Beyonce is the better entertainer. She always puts on a great show when she performs. Even when she takes a tumble down some stairs.
MissJNS
Beyonce aint the one Mary is scared of, How hypocriticle was that, Keyshia Cole that got Mary on edge right now! LOL, Thats why she releasing this album and she is being very inconsistent becuz both of her leaked singles were trash, meanwhile, Keshia Cole's 2 songs are in heavy rotation, Hmmmmmmmm! Like Bey's DVD is not MJB's problem, its Keyshia's success with Mary's swagger LOLOL! HMMMMM!
Smitty & Prettyboy
I get what yall saying about the 'Growing Pains' title, but just keep in mind many people constantly grow and change in different parts of their life...look at Master P, at 40 (or 30 something), he's saying he's just maturing.
And besides that, yall know Mary reps for her fans and her young fans and what they go thru, so the songs on the new LP could be focused on that.
The reason other artists don’t sell as many CD’s is plain and simple….PROMOTION. *** before, the day of, and following the release of Beyonce’s CD & video she will be on magazines, EVERY morning, afternoon and *** talk show promoting her CD & video. She’ll have a live concert on the Today Show or Good Morning America. BET, MTV and VHI will show interviews, her movies, videos, live performances, her Diary, Behind The Music. There is absolutely nothing wrong with this, she’s signed with a label or management team who are doing there job. ANYONE could break #1 with all that promotion, ANYONE.
BklynRogue
Hot 97 & Power 105 , Hahahahaha, For one you got Miss Jones LHAO at MJB while gassin KC, But if Bey & JT's remix is so wack, then why the *** is it gettin played everywhere and its for JT re-release! You know for a *** fact that the only Mary song gettin run is Be W/O You & Do You feat Ne-yo, Stop It Homie! Like I said itsKeyshia Cole that got Mary on edge right now! LOL, Thats why she releasing this album and she is being very inconsistent becuz both of her leaked singles were trash, meanwhile, Keshia Cole's 2 songs are in heavy rotation, Hmmmmmmmm! Like Bey's DVD is not MJB's problem, its Keyshia's success with Mary's swagger LOL! I love Mary but I got to keep it 100!
KEEYSHAJ50
Thank you, thats why they pushin it back, Its Keyshia they competin with Not Beyonce, That song is wack
Lies. Mary has no fear.Beyonce is not even in her category. Beyonce doesn't have any real talent. In order to be a real singer, you have to be able to stand in one spot and sing. No azz shaking, no legs out, no hair flying, just sing. Mary can do that. Mary has her own category and she been holding it tight for years. Beyonce is hardly a threat to her. In a few years Beyonce will have to step out and supply some real entertainment, and what will she do then, I don't see her acheiving any longevity in the hip hop genre. It's time for her to change, question is will she be able to?
You know what C, Young *** wants to holla on the situation!!
*YB*
Yoooooo C...son!! Let me tell you what I think about Mary's "competition"....I DONT GIVE A FCK ABOUT MARY'S "COMEPTITION" FCUK THEM BROADS!!!

MTO I think you all know who Mary&Mariah is. I think maybe you all had better do some research.
Mariah Carey is the number one selling female artisist of all time and Whitney is an extremely close second.
And, Mary, do I even need to go there. Check yourself MTO Beyonce is a now star. She is not going to be like them and be here 10 plus years later.
1st off all mary aint got to push *** back she the queen of hiphop soul she,s real r&b beyonce is pop i dont care how many times jayz raps on her song,mary has been here for over 10 years and still sales mil,s so dont even talk no *** like that please mary is mary and mary has her fan bass and mary will all ways sale
LOL @BklynRogue
The point I'm tryin to make is, MTO & Allegedly Geffen is using Beyonce as a cop out becuz Just Fine aint poppin of like Be Without You did! Just say you need more time to work on the LP, their not takin a loss! Just be honest with the people! Keyshia Cole is blowin up with MJB's swagger and MJB cant fight it right now esp not with weak *** songs like that! LOL!
well I grew up with Mary music when she first came out and she could not to save her own life sing in person. I've been to several concerts back in the early 90's and people walked out on her performing. The studio can only do so much to make you sound good when it comes to selling albums, but if you can't perform in person then people will see as they can't sing. As the years went and came she has gotten better. I've heard Mary perform a couple times on TV live and she should have sat down because it still to me sound bad. Beyonce can sing with or without the studio. I've heard that sister in concert also and it is *** and day between her and Mary. And her concerts was pack out to the max. Beyonce performs better than Mary any day. If they have a contest I believe Beyonce would win. I've never heard Beyonce crack when performing but Mary oh my God is all I have to say. It's like who told her she can sing at times,some of her performes was good. Yes Mary been in the game the longest and you do have people who like Mary and people who like Beyonce. I would buy Mary album because studio helps her out a lot but I wouldn't want to see her in concert. Beyonce I'll buy her album and go see her in concert.
C
I am so going to Harlem, I'm going to find you, then I'm going to smack you!! LOL. Homie, THE SONG JUST CAME OUT. GIVE IT TIME! You kno how MTO likes to pit black people against each other, hell Beyonce probably don't even got a DVD and Live Album coming out!! LOL.
And Keyshia better start showin her t!tt!es or somethin cuz oh girl slipped to #6!!! lol
Mary has nothing to worry about. Beyonce should take a lesson from 50; overexposure is not always a good thing. She has hit her peak. Don't hate let her continue to release albums and give bad acting performance she will sell less and less as people grow tired of seeing her. The second solo album did not do as well as her first because she is releasing albums back to back and to fast. The second album was decent wasn't her best work but it seemed rushed because she was blocking the other KICKED OUT DC members shine. All stars burn out... and I like her music but I am tired of hearing her voice. Beyonce came up at the expense of J-Los & B-spears overexposure..so now it is time for someone new because whatever powers that are just shoving her down our throats. They don't even give us the opportunity to miss her. So I just turn her off when she comes on the radio and I have retired her albums from the ipod. Shes played out and not that interesting of an artist anymore. Keisha Coles album is good and shes been consistent so far. Mary J Blige never has been overexposed and she has been consistent. Marys publicity has been putting out good quality albums and not being in our face too much.
LMAO @BklynRogue, He can put that album to Bed Bed Beeedddd!!! LMAO!
Hell Yeah, These Disney *** is eating good! I'm tryin to plan the biggest music hiest, Its either writing songs for Country stars or Trying to be one of timbalands students and trying to sell some tracks to Justin Timberlake LOL! These are the only Mofos sellin records LMAO!
Wow! Maybe they do all need to ban together and "Kidnap" Beyonce. Where's the girl who put that *** up last month? I copied and e-mailed it to all my friends. They all got a kick out of that ***, too. Who was it down on the "Plan to Kidnap Beyonce:

I say the closer the release date is to Christmas, the higher the sales will be b/c it'll make a great Christmas gift!!
And even though Mary has been out longer and has a huge following, I'm sure Beyonce's is just as big, if not bigger. I personally prefer Mary over Beyonce anyday...but Beyonce has a huge crossover following and is more popular at the moment. Not to mention that I'm sure a lot of the younger generation (18 and below) are more of Beyonce fans who will ask their parents to get them her album before they even think about Mary. Afterall, the younger generation will spend money likes it nothing before the older generation will...lol
If this is true...Mary didn't push her album back because of Competition because there is NONE! Mary being the Queen that she is may just be allowing Bey to have her moment cause lawd knows A LOT OF FOLKS are TIRED of Bey!!! I dont care what Daddy Knowles does to block everyone else and get his daughter out there.....Just like her Beys Make up- - You can over do it !!!! Bey will never be in the same category as MARY..Mary has always been a Solo act and she became the Queen by herself....So keep doing ya thing Mary!! We love you!!!
I don't believe that for a second. Love or hate Mary J. Blige, she is a legend and one of a kind. She would have no reason to fear going up against Beyonce because her career is at its pinnacle once again. Although she is a good artist also, Beyonce is still a youngblood and has yet to reach the status with the level of respect Mary has. Besides, they are two TOTALLY different artists, and their fans probably differ too. Mary, you got this!!

Puh-lease. When it comes between Mary J. and Beyonce we all know who takes the cake. Beyonce's music is in syle at the moment. Mary's music is timeless. You can listen to it years later and still say "This is my song." You can listen to Mary's music and say that she really out did herself. Only few artists have this gift and unfortunately Beyonce is NOT one of them. To be honest few artists these days have got that type of talent. They usually only stick around for a few years;Atleast until the people get tired of hearing and seeing them. Besides Beyonce had a good year last year and it was pretty ok this year. I want to see how it looks at the end of this year and next year ...Just wondering.
Awwww Poor Mary fans yall feel bad for her because her only checks are from her music and it aint gonna be much if someone like Beyonce is out.
DONT GET IT TWISTED yall wouldnt be mad if it was AMERIE, KELLY ROWLAND, Jennifer Hudson, Monica, Brandy, or Letoya Luckett but the FACT that its BEYONCE makes u upset that she actually has to back offf even though she was in the game for a long A$$ time. It hurts ur spirit I can tell.
Black people like to root for the underdog because we are usually the under dog but Its CRAZY that Mary is still on that level or at least she apparently when it comes to someone like Beyonce. If it wasnt a threat u wouldnt care or u wouldnt even believe this story but u kno the BEYONCE KNOWELS Franchise is a MONSTER!!!
Mary needs someone to write her a song again so it can be a hit like BE WITHOUT YOU
P.S Mary couldnt even come out when the same day as Ciara probaly
Okay...for all ya'll saying that B would kill Mary...come on now...Mary J has been around for a minute...she's a veteran in the game...her demogrphic is a bit different that B's too...B is hot right now...but she has a looonnng way to go to be on Mary's status...Mary is about the only on still winning grammys and even still around from her peers that came out in the early 90's!! B is hot but she has a totally different sound...and besides how many ways can they milk this latest album that isn't as good as the Dangeroulsy In Love albm anyway...I'm glad the charts were posted to let the B fans know that Mary is already doing better
Doubt it!!! Mary said it best, "730,000 first week of my sales!!!" Beyonce has NEVER reached 600,000 first week of her sales. Other than Mary, Alicia Keys (Diary of Alicia Keys album) is the only female R&B artist to hit the 600,000 mark for first week sales. Mary ain't worried, ain't childish and competitve and ain't threatened by Beyonce. No one buys Beyonce's albums other than kids and adults who aren't Black. Mary has the ENTIRE BLACK COMMUNITY. That was insecure and competitve IF Beyonce really tried to get her album released on the same day. What is she trying to prove? Is attempting to beat Mary her latest goal? She would have been disgustingly disappointed. Let's stayed tuned.
And Dondi, I couldn't have said it better babe.
When I'm goin through I put on Mary but when Im tired of goin through I put on Beyonce. Artist have their Niche and that doesnt make them any less of Artist.
However listening to a Destiny's Child CD I can get both and more and we all know who is singing for them.
So I feel like Beyonce is more Versatile and this next CD will be something different just like her last.
Just because Beyonce has a Perfect life doesnt mean she wont be able to Deliver those songs about love, hate, ***, depression, excitement, break ups, make ups, etc.
She's only her her second LP but she will bring it all BEFORE she's 30
MissJNS
Please! Mary has old and new school folks listening to her music, while Beyonce's music is strictly for chicken heads and women with that, "I'll just use my booty to get what I need" mentality. Mary is SO above that. Furthermore, Beyonce is overexposing herself, making it obvious to people that she's a glory hog, just as she was in Destiny's Child.
*************************************************
TO GENERALIZE A BEYONCE FAN IN SUCH A WAY IS INAPPROPRIATE AND QUITE FRANKLY CHILDISH, & I TAKE OFFENSE TO IT. I HAVE YOU TO KNOW I GET WHAT I WANT WITH MY MIND SWEETY AND NOT MY BODY (although it could go down like dat). CHICKENHEAD?? REALLY? YOU SEEM PERTURBED ABOUT SOMETHING. TO NOT LIKE AN ARTIST IS FINE, BUT WHY PUT DOWN HER FANS?? IF YOU CAN'T COMPOSE A SIMPLE THOUGHT/ARGUMENT BASED ON THE PROS AND CONS OF THE TOPICS' FACTS, PROVES YOU ARE NOT GOOD AT GETTING YOUR POINT ACROSS. HENCE YOUR CHILDISH ANTICS. MARY IS FOR THE MATURE??? ARE YOU ONE OF THOSE "MATURE" WOMEN THAT ENJOYS MARY'S MUSIC? YOU JUST DISCREDITED YOUR ENTIRE ARGUMENT BY RANTING IN SUCH A IMMATURE MANNER.
Again, I love Mary and I love Beyonce.... does that make you SUPERIOR to me??? Of your own volition you've stated as much. NOW HOW MATURE IS THAT? HOW SUPERIOR CAN YOU BE WHEN YOU RELY ON H.S. ANTICS TO "BACK UP" YOUR STATEMENS? GEE, HUN, HAVEN'T YOU GROWN AND MATURED ALONG WITH MARY?? WHAT HAPPENED?? RELAPSE?? SECOND CHILDHOOD?? STEP BACK, RETHINK YOUR ARGUMENT, THEN TRY IT AGAIN.... FROM A GROWN WOMEN'S PERSPECTIVE OF COURSE. And yeah, Beyonce just "took over" DC right? 'Cause we all know the "other" members were the TRUE talent of that group, right? And should have sung LEAD more often, right? OK, YOU'RE RIGHT??? lol
BTW, I'm quite disappointed with Beyonce for making a duet with Justin Timberfake and will not support that GARBAGE! YOU SEE, IT'S EASY TO ENJOY AND SUPPORT AN ARTISTS' ENDEAVOURS, but not be taken in by ALL that they do.
I love Mary, but dat crump dacrump crump crump $hit was WACK, I don't care how many people liked it.... I was disappointed in Mary when she dropped it. I even tried to FORCE myself to like it... just didn't happen. I was ELATED with the BREAKTHROUGH. THAT'S MY OPINION AND I'M STICKING TO IT. Noticed how I didn't have to belittle Mary J's ENTIRE fanbase to get say just that, MY OPIONION? TRY IT SOMETIME
If I was Mary I wouldn't push back ish' cuz Beyonce' already done took the spot light from the rest of the Destiny Child girls who else is she gone do it to. But Mary is a nonviolent person so she don't like a lot of drama in her life, so I don't blame her. At least her album will be the only album expected to come out that day so she'll sell a lot of copies.
Justthefactmam.... DOn't get made because she told the truth. Beyonce is just good for shaking that azz and screaming. She sucks and I'm getting REAL tired of seeing her. I alway think...... why couldn't it have been her to go down in the plan crash instead of Aaliyah. Now if she was alive she would *** them ALL DOWN. Aaliyah was on her way at the time of her death.
I personally think Mary needs to go back and review some of her past albums..MJB is still off the chain to me mann.. Like that track ''Share my world'' and ''Just mary'' was some jammin' *** songs...Mary is a soulful singer, she 's not no *** pop, or up tempo type singer or performer..
My girl Beyonce has a little bit of everything in her music..When I get all extra fly, and hit the streets, I'll bump some ''get me bodied'' straight up, because I get the concept of the song.. However due to my age and maturity the music I listen to is 80% R&B. Al Green, Marvin G, Frankie B. and Maze.. Now that's ''real to the soul'' music... They both have great music to offer, just like you have a younger audience you have an older and mature audience..
I don't even think they have the same fan base. I think Beyonce caucasion base holds her up and compares her to all of these legends. Not to say that maybe someday she won't be, but, right now she is not at legend status.
Everyone had pegged Mary to be over after her 1st album and then she came back stronger. And, that is because she was never afraid to try something new and different. The core her songs had a similar theme but the sound was totally different.
I think Beyonce has had a pretty easy life because her songs are not about anything. Maybe she has to go through some grown woman stuff before she can get deep. I would think dating a man that is like 15 years her senior she would have some deeper songs.
On her next album she will be a little older and people will expect something a little deeper from her. If she comes out with that same nonsense and shaking all over the stage people will probably get tired of her. No matter how loyal her team is around her.
*** Mary! she was all arrogant towards keyshia cole and mariah actin' like Mariah should have pushed her album back but you see when she finds out the BIG B is coming out...she weasels the hell away cuz she know she can't *** touch the KNOWLES they are some crazy cutt throat *** effers who will DO WHATEVER! Mary needs to DEFLATE that big *** head of hers so she won't have to BACK down from anybody! did y'all read that hater azz *** she put up about Keyshia Cole! that's was wrong!
@strawcream
Um.. check the awards and check the bank accounts and tell me who has more! I'm not hating on MJB I'm just stating the fact that Beyonce has had more success. And besides, Beyonce's career started out as the lead singer of the group Destiny's Child. While MJB on the other hand, has been a solo act all along. If you ask me, I think this topic is B.S.
sounds like Beyoncelove2009 wanna lick Beyonce ***! Aint that much love for an artist in the world. Every body knows Mary is a legend and is the Queen of R& B Beyonce is talented a beutiful person, but Im starting to feel like she is a *** as well this is the second time I have heard of her doing something spiteful and devious. But I know that god will handle her is she aint doing right. Whoever said Mary aint got nothing is a clown. she one of the flyest chicks out.
Seriously Mary go ahead and release your album because BEYONCE been washed up! I don't care how much they try to say everything is coming up roses with that heffa. Aint nobody feeling Bey's a.s.s.s.s.s no more. She's a wrap even though her camp is trying to make it seem like her tour was such a great success and her clothing line which is now in TJ Max LOL. She's finish with that baby bebop music she sings, so go ahead and release your grown folks stuff Mary.

ummm......exactly WHO'S mad here sweety?? re-read both posts.
I DON'T FRATERNIZE WITH CHILDREN
**********the end****************
ChoCookie so when all else fails you lie on the girl. LMAO @ the Mary stans. I don't see Mary selling out arenas and touring all over the world. Beyonce is more successful and all the chicks in the industry are intimidated by her. Beyonce is a worldwide ***. Only black ppl know who Mary is.
Bottom line Beyonce is a force to be reckoned with obviously and her numbers speak for themselves.
"Men lie Women lie Numbers Don't" LOL
