Later last night I worked for Mary J Blige, in the HMH. She was late, the crowd was anxious. Would she show up? Nobody of the audience knew that she was still in London when the first people walked into the venue... she only flew to Amsterdam at 7 PM.
She started her show with a video about how she would never sell her soul to the bling bling. She would always stay true to her fans. I don't know, it feels a bit awkward. It's also a way of selling the drama. It was a smooth show, with lots of changes. Almost like a theater play. There was even some acting involved. Seems like a 'soul' thing to do: the Isley Brothers did the same thing in their show. But Mary still sings false, I'm afraid. My crew boss compared it to a Belgian shepherd dog. The dog being able to sing better than her...
The setlist of Mary J Blige...
