Mario Sings Drake, Usher, and Ashanti in a Game of Song Association | ELLE
Вставка
- Опубліковано 27 бер 2019
- Many of us who grew up in the 2000s were thrilled when some of our favorite acts from the aughts announced a production to sate our teenage dreams: The Millennium Tour. Mario - who swooned us with his debut single "Just a Friend (2002)" - is one of the main attractions on the stateside serenade... and for good reason. In our latest episode of Song Association, Mario stopped by ELLE.com to play our favorite game, with throwbacks from Drake, Usher, and Ashanti in tow.

Same 😍
lmao yes
Camorree Tinsley yaaassss. He was my first ever crush. The crush is back again.
Yeeees
ahhh yes😹😻
They don't sing like him anymore. 90s/early 2000s were everything.
If you don't hush and actually start looking for music
@@midnightmarauder2239 Girl is my opinion and I'm entitled to it. They don't sing like him ANYMORE.
@Daniel Williams Okay love u will
Big facts
Yeah we need music like this made by these big names again because Let Me Love You will always be fire because of his voice and tone😍
There were people shocked about him in the versus battle with Omarion I wasn’t. The exact same way he sounds on the album/radio is the exact same way he sounds in person.
Yup highly talented
FACTS!!
I love how this game reveals every artist’s unique musical taste... 🤣
Yep
Same lol
I just realized how much missed him and the type RnB music their generation was making
I don't like how you said "their generation" like ...girl.

Satiyah Mckinzie give me a listen

He’s older now

Mario easily is one of the most underrated R&B artist of all times.
Damn, he’s still fine. Hasn’t aged a day swear to God Black don’t crack 😂
Amy U. He is only 33 that okay for black ppl to age
Periodt...! 🖤💃
Why would he crack if he just in his early 30s ??

The Song Association I didn't know I needed but I'm glad happened
Esxohe Facts.
His voice is so freaking beautiful , that boy can sing.
I concur with you, sweetheart because when he sung "Promise" by Jagged Edge my heart just melted in my chest besides I love them and it's my favorite from the "J.E. Heartbreak" album.
Honestly 😩💯
IKR! He was SANGING! 🥰
@@CHEREKA98 sure was and he took me back to that scene from "The Best Man" when they were doing the electric slide as he sung Cameo's "Candy".
I fell out when he busted out with the "Slide to the Left, Slide to the Right!😂😂😂😂 I love Mario so underrated..
Why I sing the same thing at the same time. I was like "my boy yas"
His voice is on point! He hasn't lost a vocal at all and still looks the same.
Mario. Whew. *FAINTS*. Which teenage heartthrob should we invite next?
Shawn Mendes pleaseee😍😊💜
Zac Efron lol
chris brown !!
u should do one with will smith, willow smith and camila cabello
TORI KELLY OR JESSIE J
Mario is so fine and charismatic. I love his swag.
And it's so natural
His rendition of Ashanti’s “rain on me” was a mashup of SWVs “rain”. Still loved hearing him sing it though.
Mario is Fine! Why haven’t I noticed?! 😍
When artists could actually sang, so underrated
He just gets better and better
Mario's falsetto is AMAZING!!! He is such an underrated artist. I need new music from him now.
He has new music out already. Check out care for you by him.
simsb2787 hey checkout my channel any feedback helps

simsb2787 Agreed
simsb2787 Right!!!
I literally SMILED through this ENTIRE video
GURHL$AME
Yes!😁
You have to give Mario his props. He can sing, even other artist's songs.
Meee tooooo
Ditto
Who is here after that verzuz batte? !!! Lol Mario crushed it
I love Mario’s voice. The usher and jagged edge ones 🔥🔥🔥
maybe it's just me , but his voice definitely matches his face
just me ? okay
Not just you

@@kenzie126xo chill issa spam page
@@gerboog hahaaha , yeah thats me
Give whoever booked him a raise!
😂😂🤣😂👍..For real!!!
UA-cam is putting this in people's recommendations after that Verzuz battle
He has not aged, literally not at all. A fetus. Wow.
His voice is highly underrated to.
Haven't seen him in ages. He was one of the go to's for us 90's kids.
Where have you been? He's on Empire, he has a new album out, and he's on tour. He's all over the place lol
@@jazzyj904 I don't watch Empire and he hasn't promoted it anywhere I would have seen so again I wouldn't know. 1st time I heard about the tour was in this video so 🤷🏽♀️
Mayara Miquidade he was in rent live
@@mayaramiquidade3439 he's still all over the place lol
how do u not immediately sing “do u remembah the TIMMEEE?” lol issa forever BOP
Goth Bae mannn lmao
Leos Land thats my shit 🤣 i woulda sang that song instantly lol
Goth Bae literally tf lmao
righttttttttttt
I sing it immediately😂😍
This man still has awesome vocals since 2002 that’s natural raw talent. I use to dance in the clubs in my 20s to his songs. Omarion could never compare acappella or period lol
I smiled throughout the whole video and now my cheeks hurt but it’s worth it
Dude should rerecord Jagged Edge's Promise. Made me go listen on Spotify real quick.
Ha.
same with Call by Usher
No cap!!!!
@DamondParis Ikr? I love it if Mario remade "Promise" because that was my song when the guys came with the video in 2000.
@@saskia_9773 of
Mario was at all the cookouts😂😂😂
He didn’t hesitate with the cha cha slide
Black representation right there! 🤧😍😘🔥🖤
And singing Cameo...oh my gosh. Yes.
@@tallissajohns7176 SO WAS JOJO THE SINGER
@@JBeezyJesusFreak ooooh j
Jo jjn
Lol everyone sings usher when the word is call
DIFF hell yea
Ong😂
I thought blondie 📞 me
When he sung Jagged Edge ❤️🫶🏽🙌 & Usher ❤️💯🙌
He should’ve gotten a point for song. A Song For You by Donny Hathaway
Ikr ...
I don't think he sang the word "song" though
SS no the song is called song for you so he should have gotten the point if he started singing it
He has to sing the actually word. He should've sang the last part of it: "We were alone and I was singing this song to you"
I thought to so but I guess you have to say the word
Mario still looking so good, I've been a fan of his for sooo long
I feel like I was the only one who knew Mario would dust Omarion in the verzuz battle
The best episode of song association I’ve seen thus far! Mario has such a beautiful singing voice.
Mario is a handsome, and talented guy!! 😍
*Mario sings*
I'm pregnant.
HA!
He took me out when he mimicked "put a ring on it" by Beyonce. He's a great artist.
They should’ve counted the Donny Hathaway one.
DemonteAlford1 Yes they should, the real score is 13/15
That’s why I prefer Terrell’s version of the game because the word can also be in the title
He started the song on time just didn't mention the key word in time. Definitely should be counted
@@shanteljenkins3135 The word "song" is in the lyrics.
@@user-ty5em5lh6g I know that but he would’ve automatically gotten the point when he started singing it because it is in the title.
HE’S BACK FROM 2010
(he still looks like he hasn’t aged)
He not fron 2010 he came out in 2000
More 2000... his biggest song was like 05! 2010???
@@cordelwhite1749 that song - Break up ft Gucci mane and Sean Garrett, came out in 2010. That was like his last major hit
Whoaa ..I missing Mario so much actually .So talented with goals vocals ,power voice .Deserves more attention and recognition worlwide .
#LegendOfR&B!!!
He's on Empire right now...
Hi🙋🏽♂️ Talisson, I think you're very attractive. Are you single? 🤷🏽♂️ Feel free to message me on my Instagram page. My screen name is Forever20young. Hope to see you there... 😏
Why he look like he about to cuddle me and whisper "baby you should let me love you" in my ear
😂😂😂
He is so underrated
When he started singing promise 😭😩😩 yes gawd

This is the Song Association we've all been waiting for!!!
How many people want Mario to win! Cause he deserves it!
THE MOST UNDERRATED SINGER IN THIS WHOLE UNIVERSE FIGHT ME 🥺❤️
he's hitting some really high notes! :O
04:22 “cmon lets go baby!” he didn’t even know the lyrics 😂😂😂😭😭😭
Mario's rendition of Promise is my favorite 😍 ❤️
Mario knew like none of the words to half of those songs lol
my heart legit freakin dropped and i couldnt help but smile when he chose Promise by Jagged Edge 😩😩😩😭😭❤️❤️❤️ such a good OG Song/ Group.
I felt the exact same way!!!
“Beyonce Put A ring On It, Of Course” he was too confident Lmaoo
lol really
AHAHAHAHA he was way too confident abt a lot of the lyrics but hey he passes
🤣🤣
He be a legendary legend
Can we get Mario back on for a round 2 pleaseeeeee
He can sing the ALPHABET to me falsetto and I’ll be in HEAVEN! ❤️🔥🔥❤️🔥🎶🔥❤️🔥🔥❤️🔥🎵
Jhene aiko please

The fact that he hasn’t aged😍😍😍 and his voice is so amazing like wow
Niggas young asf
This man and that voice 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I liked this video before he even got a word cause I mean it MARIO the man be singing down!
Same lol
Same here. Before he even got a word out i was hitting the thumbs up...lol. LOVE ME SOME MARIO!!!
LOVE seeing him on Empire too. That's my BOO! Yasssss!! Been my BOO since his first album.
Word: TIME
Mario: 🤔
Me: 🗣 (screaming at the screen) REMEMBER THE TIIIIIIMMEE! Awww, come on!!🤦🏾♀️😩
😂😂
FR
Me too
Or time after time
Amber Marie EXACTLY
😂🤣😂🤣😂
When he sung Promise, omg😩😩❤️
Mario is the entire package! The Voice & the Swagg 💯
Yall cheated him on the donny Hathaway song though
Adrianna X no honestly because we knew exactly what song it was
And did!!!!!!!
That grown woman song took me out 😂😂😂
Adrianna X right
They did
FIRST OF ALL, He sung they songs better than they did 🤷🏽♀️
LaDaisha Pettus facts🤣🥵💯🅿️❤️😍
I think singing just comes natural to this man his sound is so pure and full of life
Extraordinarily talented... we need a new album
Damn Mario's only 32? I'm 27. I thought he was older than that. He was only like 17 when Let Me Love You came out? I was a youngin, I thought he was in his early 20s in that song or somethin.
and I knew he was younger than me and wondering how a 17 yr old was killing such a song. Got him looked at as an adult artist from that point on
He just aged well man. Must have a low stress life lol
He was 18. It came off his Turning Point album to symbolize being an adult.
He was only 2 when he hit the scene!
We want ASHANTI to play next !! 😩❤️
Aaron Hopkins yea we need ashanti to play
Yes
I can hear her laugh now lol
I love Ashanti!
Yes!!!
Mario is so talented. He's so underrated. I Love his songs. 💙💙💙⚘⚘⚘
He deserved a point. He was singing Kanye West, “Touch the Sky” I gotta testify, come up in the spot looking extra fly. ‘For the day I die, Imma tough the sky...”
this man has been my crush since the fifth grade, god he is so beautiful 😭😭
Heather Smith sameee lmao
His voice is still soooooo ugh 😍😍😍😍😍
That's why I've always loved him he has so much range and he can mimic and sing soprano Alto Tenor he's awesome me and my brother used to sing the shit outta Mario music he always reminded me of a young music soul child
He's so under rated. He has a beautiful voice, should be promoted better in the industry for sure. We love you Mario. Blessings to you.
WORD: High
Mario:
Me: I GET HIGH HIGH HIGH (everyday) HIGH HIGH HIGH
I was thinking You're making me high Toni Braxton
Lmaooooo that's exactly what I was thinking/ singing lmaooooo
Lmao that nigga was high
the song he was singing is a real song .its by brandy called how high ...look it up ..
@@goodpeopleprosper635 Me too hahaha 😄
Oh y’all tripping for not counting “A Song for You”
I love these segments they giving me so many good songs to add to my playlist. Thanks Elle!
I feel like Mario and her need to be around each other and create! I feel like they are about their craft and will create magic
I love how everyone’s been mentioning Ashanti lately 💙
Nicholas Tyler Me too.
time-
“do you remember the TIME”
song-
“SO SICK of LOVE songs”
Time after time
He would’ve sounded good singing that MJ song
Rain- “Can You Stand the Rain”
Tonya Blount - Through the Rain
Rain
Purple rain
When he sings promise my heart melts 💙💙
Loved every minute of this video. The visual and the audio, go head Mario.
So he hasn’t aged. And I always forget how much I like his voice.
Yall need to get Tevin Campbell, Jamie Foxx, and Fantasia on here!
oooh. the ones i always think about are luke james and summer walker, but it'd be really amazing if they got fantasia
Tevin Campbell would be everything.
JAMIE FOXX WOULD SLAY THIS
I JUST WATCHED THE FANTASIA ONE
I’m back in the 7th grade and in love with this man all over again.
First of all the warm up at the beginning of the video was amazing🧐!
Who’s idea was this??? THANK YOUUUU SO MUCH😍😭❤️
He got SONG... It is a "A Song for you" by Donny Hathway... What y'all doing Elle... Fix that man's score...
Exactly. I watch the terrell shows version of this game because at least there's interaction with the singer and he doesn't dismiss songs like this.
@@BlackCulinaryHistory Me too... I found him before I found Elle...
He’s meant to say the actual word ‘song’ not sing a song called song
Isha Shareena it has “song” in the lyrics, he just hadn’t got to that part yet.
Christina Brown I get where you’re all coming from but the point is that he sings that word though
You are great Mario. We've all been with you for a whole minute and will be forever! So proud of ya and glad see to you.
Mario's love for music is so strong and genuine. It shows 💕
I clicked on this video so fast. I love Mario, and I know I'm coming off bias, but he should have got a point for song for you by Donny Hathaway. I said this because in earlier clips people would sing the songs with the word in it and they would stop the time until they sang the word then gave them the point.
I agree!!! As long as they start singing the song before the time is up they should get the point. I came to the comments just to see if anyone else thought the same thing 😂
Bryson Knoel lol I’m happy I wasn’t the only one either.
