      I didn't doubt Mario in terms of his live performance. I knew Omarion didn't have the pipes to contain him. But if it was just a regular versus battle going song for song I think Omarion may have more hits. Especially when you add B2K. But it all depends on how you play them because Mario has missiles as well 💯🔥💪🏾

      Let’s keep it 💯 the whole thing was a mess. Mario was almost whispering in the mic, O fumbled his catalog, their attitude was unnecessarily petty.
      That verzuz would have been much better as a low res front camera quarantined version.
      They disrespected that stage with that whack 1 hour plus performance.
      If you can’t handle the stage, don’t get on it. Do some unplugged stuff on the Tiny Desk Room, let Usher and Chris take the stage and respect it.
      Tank sang 4 seconds, and it was better than the whole set. Hard work shows…

      He definitely needs to find GREAT talent to support his. And that combo could work.
      He’s had great success lately, though I personally don’t understand what he’s trying to achieve since D.N.A
      I haven’t yet went through this whole episode.
      But some of the greatest R&B artists that « fell down » usually did when they let themselves be taken into the trend (be it in the songs topics, or sound). Mario does not do anything that sets him apart from the rest if we’re honest. GO was the last iconic thing for him, and even then he had massive competition.
      The greatest albums of your favorite R&B artists are lead by a team of songwriters/producers that do the heavy lifting : Bobby V’s first album is Tim&Bob, Omarion had The Underdogs, Jagged Edge had B. Cox and JD, Usher had B.Cox and JD (and we have yet to have a classic since Confessions, but that guy has had his success expanding his horizons so can’t say much in regards to his career), Trey Songz with Anticipation/Ready had Troy Taylor / Eric Hudson, Mariah had JD/B.Cox and The Dream/Tricky Stewart… and we can go on
      Those album pieced together, with such and such, trying new stuff, or trying to give such or such sound just produces ephemeral efforts.
      Go into the studio, have grown man convos, and write some good stories with some of the strongest.
      Look at JD and B.Cox still wrecking the charts with Muni Long. Great talents are out there, figure out how to make it work.
      This guy could make a dope album with Tank and J Valentine, or with Tray Taylor doing the heavy lifting. They fit his latest suave persona (pause).

The way that Tank stops him to say we not going to over how huge "Break Up" was, not gonna fly over it. And theeennnnn Tank reels himself back to say I also hear you about your darkness, and asks for more information. Yoooooo. That touched my heart. It's so easy to skip over people's hard moments, because it's uncomfortable. Thank u Mario for mentioning all the uncomfortable parts, and thank you Tank for giving him space for it. Wow. Cuz wow.

    Some people may even remember in 2019, Mario was in Rent the Musical: Live. He voiced the character of Benjamin Coffin. His vocals on that production are so good too! I'm glad Mario is versatile.

    This is one Artist I have always respected and admired. I was waiting for him to guest star on here. I like how he's in his power. He is so clear in his path, and as a person. He is a built artist. Authentic artist. Mario has his own lane as a artist. He is very intentional when he speaks and what interviews he's apart of. Showing other artists that being over exposed is not the answer. But focus and making it about the music, the art and not the fame is enough.

    I officially started listening to Mario in 2009, when his "D.N.A." album came out. "Break Up" was one of the hits on that album. Been a fan, ever since. There's something nostalgic and current about his voice, on every album- like, he doesn't miss.

    Some things I LOVE AND respect about Mario, is that he's been extremely open about his flaws, his battles, his personal issues whether they were in his control or not... which asks us to sincerely enjoy his art and not think he's the front man for some secretive persona. But for us as fans, we get to enjoy his amazing gift! I'm glad I was lucky to enjoy his music from the start... that late 1990s- early 2000s R&B... 💯❤️🎯
