"MJB vs. Mariah: the real Queen of Hip-Hop Soul"


  

          

MJB &/or her ppl crowned her the Queen and ppl seemed to have swallowed it. but, why? who are the other contenders?

Mariah is the chief contender, IMO. and when i look at their catalogs i see Mariah's got more Hip-Hop/R&B hybrids that move me. so i dunno why i continue to accept MJB as the 'Queen' of the sub-genre.

i'm ready to give that title to Mariah, if i were giving it out for real. or i'm at least prepared to have Mariah & MJB battle for it.

fuck you.

Sep 10th 2012
