Blige. I've been a die hard fan since &amp;quot;What's the 411&amp;quot;. Mary has helped me get through all my relationships with her songs especially with the &amp;quot; My Life&amp;quot; album. All those haters can keep hatin cause Mary is on top of her game, and they are probably wishing it was them on top of the R&amp;amp;B game right now. Mary is and always will &amp;nbsp;be the Queen of hip hop Soul, and no one can ever be compared to her. &amp;nbsp;&lt;br&gt;P.S- Mary if you read this Please come to Buffalo. We LOVE you up here.
