@@PositiveGlows Yeah! In retrospect this man is being hurtful and exploitative of her personal situation. And she's being brutally honest here. This woman is absolutely GREAT in every way. Mary, if you're reading my comment please know that I love you even more after this interview. Thank you so much for being yourself and putting out great music that has been meaningful for so many people. You are BEAUTIFUL inside out. A great and talented singer, songwriter and actress! You are a 1st class worldwide act! Don't ever forget that! I'm not black and from the projects but just a white guy from Europe that you have helped through your craft! Stay strong and blessed! 💖

Mary will always be that woman. 25 years and she still hasn't missed a beat! People write her off, I am happy to say that as a real fan, I'm still rocking with her. She's been around when R&B was many different things in the '90s than today. Man who still relevant after 25 years in the game being solid and strong. This is the epitome and embodiment of an R&B icon. Can't wait for _SOAW_ to drop!!

[@Damon_Fall-Guy_Mitchell]

Bitch! Mary will always be that Bitch! It's not a insult.

[@SherriceSledgeThomas]

I thought Mary was the Queen of Hip Hop Soul and Faith was the First Lady of Bad Boy. I saw them as amazing compliments to one another. Never rivals. Much love and respect to both.

[@bk327]

Correct. It's never been Faith that had the issue. We all know this.......Mary needs to grow up. Even with the Queen of Hoop Hop Soul title she still intimidated and bitter about Faith.

[@TheMrsilverscott]

@@bk327 Did you listen to the interview or just read the title??? Because she clearly says that she never had a problem with Faith and that she's talented and they were cool then 🤦

[@Justaskkjames]

​@@TheMrsilverscott Mary definitely had a problem with Faith. Faith had the better voice, look and it intimated Mary. It's a well known fact that Mary felt that Faith stole her style. I love Mary but facts are facts.

[@sparkswolverine]

Well Faith just had a interview with Hollywood Unlocked 21 May 2018 and she said there’s no beef. But here Mary feels some kind of way because of Puffy’s business moves. I never felt that Faith was trying to be Mary. I mean they did work together of My Life in terms of Faith writing and doing background vocals. So I can’t imagine why they would have beef.

[@AllAboutAmiyah]

Right and their sounds are nothing alike. So idk why she thought faith was a carbon copy of her 😂

Christian Clarke right, I'm over here like why is he giggling like a school girl, holding his mouth closed with his hands and sht.. Then I glanced at Mary's "mmkay?...What's funny?" facial expression it just added to my irritation towards him. Check out her interview on Angie Martinez, total opposite.

i wish Flex would have went more in depth with falling out with Faith and Mary. from what i remember Mary was pissed that Diddy started to put his own artist (Faith) on with the same producers that she worked with. and when she cut Diddy off ahe cut Faith off too, and i think thats messed up because they were really close. then years later she and Diddy got back together and became close again but she and Faith never really got back cool again.
