Ok everybody with this video it is time to do the signature MJB dance. If you call yourself a MJB fan, you know what I’m talking about 😂. 🕺🏾 Gotta throw them arms back and forth …get that hunch just right in your back…then toss in that unexpected kick 🦶🏽…BAM! Rinse and Repeat….
Fun Facts: 1. This album includes remakes of soul songs which earned her the nickname "Queen of Hip Hop/Soul". It was recorded when she was just 23 years old. 2. She was dating another recording artist during this era (K-Ci of R&B group Jodeci). 3. She stated in interviews in the past that she was so high the day she did the photoshoot for this album cover that she doesn't remember doing it. 4. She cried while she was singing during the recording sessions for this album because of the abusive relationships, drug abuse, and other turmoil happening in her life. The pain comes through in the other songs on this album (like the track My Life). Be Happy is the last track on the album because that's what she wanted the most during this period in her life.
I remember Mary was goin' THROUGH it during these times, but damn it if she did NOT look it in this video!😱She looked so gorgeous in this video! This era was IT, lemme tell u! Hey boys, let's do a random mid 90s R&B girlies countdown! Total, Faith, SWV, Xscape, Monica.......pick any vid from that mid 90s time period. They'll all be gorgeous! 🥰
Sunset playlist: 1. Zhane x Sending My Love 2. Amerie x Why Don't We Fall In Love 3. Janet Jackson x Anytime Anyplace (this is prob more sexy sunset after dark) 4. D'Angelo x Lady 5. Solange x Cranes in the Sky
This song speaks to the yearning for real love and the innate happiness that comes with it but being stuck feeling love for a man who ultimately keeps you unhappy. Mary was going through it during this period in her life and she poured her heart and soul into the songs on this sophomore album.
Would love you guys to go on the SWV journey the right way xo SWV Playlist - 5. I’m so into you (1992) 4. Weak (1992) 3. Right Here/Human Nature (1993) 2. You’re The One (1996) 1. Use Your Heart (1996)
@@BoudinSpicy one of their best songs but I’m going release order. I hate when they skip around. If they do an SWV playlist 2 Rain will of course be on it.
I just noticed how this song is in a minor key (until the change) and sounds melancholy, reinforcing her hope for happiness that's not there yet. Her eyes are covered or semi-hidden.
I love this channel. Please do a week 2 for Mary because she has alot more amazing hits 1.all that I can say 2.Take me as I am 3.i remember 4.I can love you better than she can 5.not gonna cry
When you say Sunset playlist, I think of crusin' music. Something smooth and groovy that you drive down a highway to as the sun is going down, so here's my playlist: 5. Majid Jordan - Every Step, Every Way 4. Tame Impala - The Less I Know, The Better 3. Mette - Darling Drive 2. Kaytranada ft Tinashe - The Worst in Me 1. Victoria Monet ft Lucky Daye - Smoke
Hey guys! Thank you for the sweet reactions. It helps me wind down at night. I think these songs would be dope for a Sunset Top 5: 1. Baby Powder by Jenevive 2. Surf by Xavier Omar ft Masego 3. John Redcorn by Sir 4. No Other Way by Sinead Harnett 5. For Real by Amel Larrieux
All of Mary’s songs are still my jam. As soon as I hear a beat drop I’m automatically either swaying or two-stepping. Even the deeper/sadder songs make my heart smile.
This is one of my favorite Mary J. Blige songs. I concur with the other commenters that she definitely deserves a Week 2. So many other hits! Sunset Week suggestions below: - Ashanti - Baby - Mariah Carey - Say Something - Keith Sweat - Twisted - Bobby Valentino - Slow Down - Anthony Hamilton - Magnolia's Room - I15 - Lost In Love - Ledisi - In The Morning - Omarion - Speendin' I'm on the fence with some of these qualifying as a "sunset" song, but whatever.
Everytime this song plays I cant help but do the Mary dance 💀 This is a timless classic. I’m obsessed with songs that are on the same album (My Life), like “Mary Jane (All Night Long)”. I hope y’all get to that song in another week dedicated to Mary. I hope the commenter also chose a song from her 1992 debut album, “What’s the 411”. She changed the sound of R&B with her classic hit “Real Love”. “Everything” from her 1997 album “Share My World” is also one of my favorite Mary J Blige songs. It’s actually my 2nd most played song on Spotify. I hope y’all get to that song. Mary has too many hits for only 1 week to do her justice. Toni Braxton Week 1! #5. He Wasn’t Man Enough #4. Breathe Again #3. You’re Makin’ Me High #2. Just Be A Man About It #1. Unbreak My Heart Please do Toni Braxton. She is one of the best selling female artists of all time, has several Grammys and other awards, was one of the leading acts of the 90s, and she is known for her numerous hits and her very distinct and unique voice, trust me you guys would love it. I couldn’t fit all of her hits in this list, but I think these may be some of her best and most important songs. A week dedicated to this legend would be amazing.
So that was def mary up on that mountain. I saw her complain once in an interview that they just "her ass" off in a helicopter and told her to dance 😂😂😂.
Sunset Playlist 1-Amerie, "Why don't we fall in love" 2-Mary J. Blige, "Flying Away"(❤❤❤) 3-Mary J. Blige, "Everything " 4-Beenie Man ft Mya, "Girls dem suga" 5-702, "I still love you"
Hey guys, so I was hoping y'all would do a week 2 for MJB. These videos listed are a bit more storytelling/cinematic. I think you two would enjoy. 1. All That I Can Say 2. Deep Inside 3. Take Me As I Am 4. One ft. U2. 5. Whole Damn Year. All of em are dope. Love the channel btw, been on board with you guys a little over a year now. I always look forward to your reactions to some of our favorite artists. Also, I admire you guys examining of music videos-from fashion, jewelry, locations, etc. Not to mention, y'all are hilarious af frfr. But I hope you guys get around to checking out the list for week 2. Much love & God bless 🙏🏾 🫶🏾🤍 ..
Thank you for the tips at the beginning of this video LOL As a Canadian I should’ve known kindness and compliments is the way to go 😌 You guys are verrryy funny and I genuinly look forward to your videos throughout the week! Also Mike? The tunes are tuning 👏🏾 I would love if you guys did N.E.R.D week they def have some interesting videos 1. N.E.R.D - Rockstar 2. N.E.R.D - Lemon ft Rihanna 3. N.E.R.D - She Wants to Move 4. N.E.R.D - Hot n Fun 5. N.E.R.D - Hypnotize You :)
I keep getting confused. I thought y’all don’t want us to put lists in the comments of reaction videos anymore. Are we supposed to put a “sunset” list here or wait until later?
I love the technical input from Joe and the musical input from Mike. Yall give balanced reviews. Please Mary J Blige week 2!!! 1. Be Without You 2. Family Affair 3. Take Me As I Am 4. One (ft U2) 5. 25/8 ua-cam.com/play/PLkNr477zkjhoE_6vuP6m3Lzl_sveXQKnZ.html&si=simQVWV1UiaxHur3
Can yall please react to Ciara. I’m the one that’s been requesting her. I requested her on y’all UA-cam live months ago. Ciara week 1.goodies 2.promise 3.1/2 step 4. Ride
@weeklytop5 hi Joe and Mike. Sooooo where to begin, I’m glad you like the song in it’s totality. I gave this particular video because I wanted suggest something from Mary’s earlier catalog. Unfortunately, most of the videos at that time visual quality is not very good. And as to your point to the repetitiveness in the video, most of Mary’s earlier videos are shot the same way, there’s really not a plot. Just great music and awesome dancing. Maybe during a MJB week 2, we can get the more cinematic ones. ( wink wink wink) I luv you guys. @peerlesskells9377 has a great list. 😉😉😉😉😉😉😉😉

My Life era Mary J. Blige was a vibe. This song hit me deep at a certain point in my life
"You're So Good to Me" (1979) by the legendary Curtis Mayfield was sampled on this song. ❤🔥
This song speaks to the yearning for real love and the innate happiness that comes with it but being stuck feeling love for a man who ultimately keeps you unhappy. Mary was going through it during this period in her life and she poured her heart and soul into the songs on this sophomore album.

I just noticed how this song is in a minor key (until the change) and sounds melancholy, reinforcing her hope for happiness that's not there yet. Her eyes are covered or semi-hidden.

@royalblu6412 I agree with you! What would your sunset songs be comprised of?

@@royalblu6412 nnnnoooooo royalblu, you can do it too!! (See what I did there) We gotta put our heads together collectively and curate a dope list.
@@ch-antae- 😅ok
Should have done remix with Keith Murray too.
"Real Love" next. Her very first single from her debut album.

Top 5 Sunset songs:
1. Why dont we fall in love-Amerie

producers are cold for using 'you're so good to me' by curtis mayfield as the sample for this song. It's so euphoric and beautiful.
