MILLER TIME

MARY J FUCKING BLIGE. You know I used to love you. I thought you were the queen of hip hop. I thought you had your own style, I thought you were original. But tonight, my little rosy bubble of MJB awesomeness has been busted. Man this almost makes me sad.

So I was listening to the Isely Brothers on Pandora, specifically the song Lets Fall In Love, and I heard this one part of the song,

Everybody needs some one to love
Darling It's you I've been dreaming of
And I wanna be the one you love
The story's been told for me
By the stars Above, stars Above

If you know the song you know the part I'm talking about. And OMG I'm like, I've heard this before but where? Yea its from Mary J Blige's song, The Love I never HAD. Wow:

Cause Everybody needs someone to love
And I know that its true and I know that its you

If you listen to the two songs you will know. YOU WILL KNOW SHE STOLE IT!!!

This happens so often now I'll be listening to an older song and realize damn, so and so stole this and all this time I was thinking it was something new. Well what do you know? It happened again but with someone I totally didn't expect in from. Mary. Damn you Mary Damn you. I'm losing faith in music from today. Is there no originality anymore? Or is it going to be this way forever artists passing off there hottest new hits as their own. I mean where do they recognize the original creators, composers of those hits. And its sad because sometimes they can be littleknown songs.

It's not right. But you know what? I wonder if they do often if not always tribute their songs to the original artist on the album liner information. I wouldn't know because, well hell I haven't bought a cd in like 5 years. I download all the music I have, entire Cd's at times. But anyway that's a whole other story.

I'm just so upset right now I don't know why but I am.

And you know with Mary it's not like she took the whole song, the melody, the baseline, or the rhythm. nothing like that. No just a couple of lines from the song. Gee I wonder how easy that must be. Did she write the song? I'm sure she's aware of the Isely Brothers anyway and she knew what she was doing when she sung it So. HMPH. The blame is still on her. I'm mad at you MARY

WHy WOULd YOU DO THIS TO ME?
