What's your favourite number from The Wiz?
This one!
This one!
This one!!!
I can't choose one. No bad news, Home, Brand new day, Be a lion. so many good songs
This one, Home, he's the wiz, the color song, definitely the color song!
For those from the younger generation, u gotta understand, Mary Blige was alright, but Mabel King is the EFFIN QUEEN of this song from the wiz. King owned it like nobody's business.
Of course because Mabel was the original evillene.
nell carter was effie
It really doesn’t matter what generation your from, both women were great. Mable King OWNS this role but you can’t compare her to Mary J to be far.
Absolutely! And she's beautiful in ever conceivable way. Her smile lights up my soul. 🐝 PseuFree 💟🌈🌈💙♾💜🧷⬆️
@@davonlampley7626 Nor can you compare Mary J. to her.
All: all hail Evillene
Evillene: and all hell right back at ya
😂😂
😆😆
😂😂
LMHO!!! I bet Charlie Smalls wishes he'd written that line.
I don't remember the wicked witch being fine as hell and looking like a million bucks
LOL ikr
Me neither - but I'll take it! And she sounds just as good as she looks!
This isn't the 1st time.
The costume designer wanted her to look beautiful but threatening at the same time
Elphaba has competition
The only thing this musical was missing was a live audience. The Wiz was definitely one of the best televised stage productions. The cast did a great job the whole show.
It had a live audience I was there
@@howardworks2135 cap
What if she sneezed during her song
@@nahh0070 They would have rolled with it; that's what you do in live theater.
@@howardworks2135 Y’all were awful quiet.
Mary J Blige Voice was perfect for this role. She looks like the Evil Queen of Hip hop Awesome performance.
If only she was in more of _The Wiz: Live_ like The Wicked Witch Of The West was in the MGM _Wizard Of Oz._
Honestly, this was the perfect cast! Everyone delivered more than they needed to and it was SPECTACULAR!
She wasn’t bad but Teraji P Henson would’ve been better
@@Defender_The_Tdot_Metropolis Is she a singer?
@@rogue7723 When Charlie Smalls created _The Wiz_ in the first place, he went back to L. Frank Baum's 1900 book, "The Wonderful Wizard of Oz" and based his script on that. The Wicked Witch of the West only appears in one chapter in the middle of the book.
In the stage version, after the Wiz flies away in his balloon, Dorothy and the lads have to travel south to meet Glinda. In both this show and the movie version of _The Wiz,_ they rather lazily took the MGM route and had Dorothy go home from the Emerald City.
No one tell her about 2020
😂😂😂
hate to drop a spoiler but she didn't make it to 2020.
That’s not bad news it’s worse news
😂😂😂
😭😭😂
Mary J Blige surprised us all!!! What a versatile singer and actress. She needs to do more Broadway!!!
She has to be the hottest evil witch ever. Evil never looked so good lol.
The evil queen in snow white looks hot.
I.M.H.O. the first and only evil witch was Mabel King in the original motion picture...
@@Rosannasfriend Once upon a time?
@@Rosannasfriend Mary kinda reminds me of Regina from Once Upon A Time here with the outfit.
Ummm elpaba, wicked, act two.
I think it was neat to make her look beautiful but threatening
AGREE
Maybe it's... Evillene :D
she doesn't look very threatening tho
Credit to Paul Tazewell for that idea.
yea it's much more realistic. lol
Nobody can match the legendary bombast of Mabel King-- but then, nobody is required to. This is an excellent performance.
💟💟💟💟💟🌈🌈
I'm a Beta, VHS, DVD, sing-along CD, AND MP3 owner of the movie version!😂. I mean yes, nobody can touch Mabel's version (that I've heard) but, Mary did a stupendous job! She may not have gotten her Oscar yet but, she could easily slide over to Broadway to collect her Tony.
@@AleilaSkye Not to mention she's got a cabinet full of Grammys. 🙂
Exactly 💯
@@djdoc06 Ms. King did her share of Gospel singing in her career, and I think she was deliberately sounding like Gabriel's trumpet! ;-)
I'm glad Mary finally accepted she's an alto she sounds so much better in her natural range.
Yes I realised this key is low...
When did she ever say she wasn't an alto?
I love how Mary tapped into the character and portrayed this.
Mary was a perfect evilene ... but I can’t be the only Wiz fan that did Mabel Kings scatting part during the Music break lol
Hello and thank you because yes ma'am I did that too
@@oya6870 😂😂 I knew I couldn’t have been the only one lol
@@sistamaryclarence Oh of course not, once you've seen Ms. Mabel King do this song it is never gonna leave your head! XD
@@oya6870 yesss that part although they are many great renditions Ms.Mabel will always reign supreme Evilene 🕊💜
Baby, Mabel King put that ooh-wee on this song. She brought that gospel feel to it. Girlfriend hasn't been outdone yet. Mary J did good. But, can't nobody do this song like Mabel. NOBODY.
She straight up bodied and snapped on this 🔥🔥🔥🔥, her voice has a lot of gust, attitude and raw power. U can’t train that👑👑👑👑
Now THAT is perfect casting. Mary J absolutely killed it
Mary's voice was perfect for this song
It's not an easy song to sing, especially along with the acting like a wicked witch in all her regalia - but Mary B makes it look easy. She's amazing.
@@franceshaypenny8481 Hey, I bet it's an easier outfit to wear that what Mabel King wore in the movie! 🙂
OMG, I really came to listen to her sing the song but I got so caught up in her overall talent. GO HEAD MARY!!! I SEE YOU!!!!
Mary J Blige SLAYS this role and outfit is FIERCE
Mable King Forever!
@@SuperBullaMan Her name's Mabel.
They need to broadcast it again.
Yeah my mom missed it
@@blackieandme3647 twice?
Yeah
Maya Carroll-Deaton There’s a DVD you can buy on Amazon
Maya Carroll-Deaton it’s on dailymotion
We need a full show again please 😭😭😭😭😭😭
I agree!
just go to the website to dailymotion and look up the wiz live its still free with ads sadly but you can just try.🙂
there's always iTunes.....
The Wiz, I love that more than The Wiz of Oz period. Black shows definitely need to get there flowers. I guess I'm just a soul person.
👊🏿👊🏿👊🏿👊🏿
Perfectly said 💯👏🏽
Have you ever read the book?
She deserved an Emmy for this performance
This is legit one of the best live musicals ever. If you look up best live musicals this is definitely in the top 3
Yes, this JCS and hairspray are the best ones
@@HanboSlimoffical what’s JCS?
@@ianhimmelstein5915 Jesus Christ Superstar, the one with John Legend was fantastic
I like the grease live musical as well to this.
All hail Mary J Blige! The Queen of Hip Hop soul! She killed this! My friend watched this with me to humor me. They all agreed she was the best part of the show!
All hail!🙌🏾🙌🏾
was really hoping she would've gotten into the Hall of Fame. I mean Jay-Z got in on his very first try, and the Go-Go's only released four albums in their career (and only three of them when they were relevant). But if Dionne Warwick is still waiting after 40 albums, and 33 years of being eligible, I guess MJB has some waiting to do as well
She the witch of hip hop soul now
@@Viking_Luchador not only Mary J. & Dionne..but the Pointer Sisters should have been Inducted along time ago..just on the Strength that This Sister(s) group was the first Black group to win a Grammy for the Country & Western song they wrote and song.
Not to even mention they contribution to music.
Ben E. King is already in as a member of The Drifters, but he really deserves to be recognized for his solo career
Mary J. Blige was born to sing and I think she would be great on Broadway.
WOW! When did they do this! Mary J Blige is the perfect person to play Evillene! Her voice is still magnificent! She does Mabel King justice! I hope they make a remake of this movie and cast Mary J Blige in this role
Damn you late. 5 1/2 years ago. Buy the DVD on Amazon. Check it out and support the artists.
@@GalaxyNexus1 Don't be so catty.
@@dpcisunbreakable Don't even know what that means
Her voice is so powerful
And this of course led to _Mudbound_ and the rest is history. I remember when it premiered a whole generation didn't know _The Wiz_ was an all black cast.
smh
Nice but I’ll take Mabel King any day. Love how Mary looks and I like her opening line..” all Hell back at ya’ll” Lol
Singing this song belongs to Mable though.
Mary J did her thing on this song. BUT, Mabel King still got my vote.
Well Mabel King died in 1999. So it would be impossible for her to be cast in 2015’s Wiz Live. (think)
@@sxy1tanni duh
@@dakingbey LOL
She sounds like Mabel King with the grunting. I'm proud of her.
Plus not every evilene is gonna be the same she brought her version to the play and plus evilene is really not a dance part her standing around and walking and she was dancing in place so all the hate go away! And her acting was amazing I loved it so haters back away
Linda🗣🗣you betta tell em...thats my day 1 and she did HER thang and made it her own..i can't wait to see her again in concert😩😩MY absolute favorite R&B singer of all time! Period
@@sharhondagarrett4245 amen
I completely agree ! And people who’ve seen the movie got to understand there was something way before it. I’m not gonna lie I wasn’t sure about her casting... or if she’d be able to sing it but boy.... I was wrong when it came to the singing ! The moment she opened her mouth.... I GOT CHILLS and when she was done I got up like I was there at a Bway show and clapped 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 ( There should have been a live audience ) but her acting was ehhh to me but still amazing ! And your right everyone who plays it is gonna bring something different. From Mabel King, to Ella Mitchell, to Tichina Arnold, now Mary J
@@colorpurplelover8571 I didn't particularly remember liking Mary's performance, but watching it again here on UA-cam, I agree, she was great here. I still have it recorded on my dvr from when it aired live, and I'm curious as to whether they switched the performance after it aired. I'm anxious to watch it again, and check that out. Fox did that with their Rent Live. The performance from Angel was embarrassingly bad, and if you watch it on UA-cam now, all of a sudden he's singing most of the notes. Lol. Fyi., for those that don't know, the late great Mabel King was the original Evileene...not just in the movie, but ALSO in that "something that came way before it," the Broadway Show (but not really "way before," just 3 years).
that outfit is the bomb. good Halloween outfit for someone. very creative. I think Mary did well here.
At first when I saw this I was scared to listen to it. I'm a big fan of Mary but I'm also a big fan of this movie. And I am actually glad I took the courage to listen. She did a darn good job!
So many superstars as Evilline. Mabel King, Tichina Arnold, now Mary J. Blige.
Not to mention Grace Jones! I'd love to see footage of her portrayal.
She did amazing
Mary did this role justice…. Loved the singing… and she stepped out of her comfort zone and gave some comedy…. ❤❤❤❤❤❤
This is the best I've heard her voice live. Very strong
Wow! I'm impressed by this performance. I was not expecting her to be this good. Kudos to you Mary J.
OMG SHE DID AN AMAZING JOB. I CAN'T EVEN THINK OF A BETTER WORD FOR THIS PERFORMANCE EXCEPT AMAZING! REALLY DID THIS CLASSIC SONG JUSTICE!
RIP MABEL KING 😔✊🏿
I love Mary’s costume. It looks nice on her.❤
This performance is legendary!
She killed this role 🔥🔥
Mary looks and sounds beautiful.💋
Her voice is incredible!! 🥰
Mary sounds so freaking good!
Everyone else: vibing to the music.
Me: "I want to camp in her dress."
😂
Great minds think alike 🙈 Yeeeeeessssss 😍😍😍😍
The dress is definitely better than the one from the 70's movie version (the latter looked heavy & uncomfortable like wearing the whole display of brooches & jewelry).
Mary did a Magnificent job! Mary J and Mabel King (RIP) are the Best 'Wicked Witches of the West'!👍🏾
Mary did that!
Miss Blige oh my god
When I watch this show I fell in love with the wiz
Right I like it better than the movie
@@latoyawilliams2340 the original Broadway production is better than this.
All those mary j moves they put in😌😌🔥🔥
Mary Jane Blige did her thang!!!! 🔥
Time for a new version of the WIZ movie 🍿
Mary-j-blige is on fire 🌡️🔥🔥🔥🔥.
OMG it's Mary J Blige !!! Beautiful as Ever!! ACTING!!! SHE HAS MULTI- LEVELS OF SKILLS!!!! WONDERFUL, WONDERFUL!
Mary is versatile even on Broadway
Mary did that. I love her so much. Her voice is wonderful. Great job Mary❤
Is this Cha-Cha in an alternate universe?
Yes!!!! 😭😭🤣🤣
Yes lol
Yep lol
Good one!
Cha cha alternate universe where she’s the head of commission 💖
I didn't think she would do this song justice, but she did and gave it absolutely an up to date feel for this song. Great job on this performance.
The finest witch I done ever seen.
MARY ATE!!!!! THIS NUMBER!! GO!! MARY!!!
I think Mary Truly Gave this Performance her all. She did her thing
Only Miss Mabel King SANG this song‼️
She was FEROCIOUS with that✔💯😆
The queen delivered 👑💐 bravo
This scene and the end of her are two of the best in the show!!!
She looks like she's gonna jump at me any moment.
MARY J BLIGE FOR THE WIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! She KILLED this performance!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I had never seen this!! Awesome job Mary J. Blige!!!
I absolutely love this she did that!
I relate to this song on a spiritual level
This is a cute up to date take on The Wiz, but for someone who grew up in the 70s and is a big fan of the original, nobody can beat Mrs Mabel King singing this song. RIP My favorite song from The Wiz besides this is Michael Jackson doing You can’t win. I gotta pull out my Wiz VHS and watch it, lol
Mary is a star! She did better than excepted I need another musical for Mary!
Love that they snuck in Mary's Style into the costume.
Mary looks gorgeous! Her makeup is flawless.
This is a great performance...but I believe the original by Mabel King is the first and best version....
Totally agree with u
I digress. The actress in this version has more soul in it than Mabel King did. Just my opinion.
@@ZacharyWhite25 no way Mary killed it but Mabel sung it to Extinction!!
that evil witch, MARY J LOOKED AND SOUNDED MARVELOUS
MARY SOUNDED GREAT!!! Okay. Childhood classic. Thanks For Sharing.
She did a great job. This was a highlight.
NotThInG buT a drOP of watEr?!,!,
Ommmgggg she did a wonderful job 😢😢😢😢 Go maaarrryyyy!!!
Easily the best musical anyone's done for these Live performances.
Best song in the musical! Love it!!!!
This is a bop
Its the CAPRICORN Energy!!♑️👸🏾Mable & Mary !
I am loving this glow up…my girl Mary is perfect for this role!
She did a good job! I like this! She gives this role a new breath of life.
That! There! There!
SHE DID THAT!!!!!!!
Love the Wiz MJB did great she did Mable King proud 🌻
She sounded just like the lady from the original movie! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
A little but Mabel killed it and took us to church!!
No she does not. You are deaf. Mabel King took it to another level. It would be hard to top her performance.
@@ajaycbaby8837 definitely not deaf and she doesn’t have to try an top anyone. She did the song justice in her own way.
Yes Mary!!! This was perfect for you!!!!
Mary is perfect for this role.
oh no...i've got a little bit of a crush on this version of evilene 😅 mary is GORGEOUS, and absolutely nailed the part! 😍😍😍
I’ve never heard of Mary J in this play!! Wow what a treat
Mary still rocking the boots.
Everyone sure does love a great villain
And Mary J. Bilge proves it in this song
Incredible!!! She got the voice down to the T!!!
This is my favorite song from the whole production. Mary bodied this!
