Mary J. Blige is in trouble with the IRS, reportedly owing them in the range of $3.4 million after allegedly failing to file and pay her federal taxes in 2009, 2010 and 2011. This is less than a month after Lauryn Hill was sentenced to three months in prison on a similar charge . This figure doesn't include the estimated $900,000 that MJB owes New Jersey in back taxes or the $2.2 million that TMZ reports she owes in loan debt. Blige last released an album in [...]

The tax service claims the singer did not file taxes from 2009-11. As MTV points out , that's not the only hateration and taxation for the singer. She owes an additional $901,769.65 in back taxes to the state of New Jersey, as well as outstanding debts stemming from lawsuits [...]

So it's very rare when i get worked up about a track and how smooth it is. Last time i was this impressed was when i heard XXYYXX's About you. Such lush and creamy synths, the chord progressions play in the pain spoken in the Mary J. Blige lyrics. An amazing remix you should download and keep an eye out for our friends Haez and Spaceman Unlimited . Enjoy!

Regardless of your feelings towards the Murder Inc. crew, Ja Rule and Irv Gotti incapsulated everything wrong (and seemingly perfect) about hip-hop in the early 20002s. While Ja's music relied more on mainstream appeal than lyrical authenticity, he knew (subconsciously or not) what would sell in a climate obsessed with TRL and commodified thug culture. He covered up rhymes about "fucking hoes" and "smoking blunts" with Ashanti's sweet voice and Top 40 approved beats, making parents of thirteen-year-old girls a little less worried about that dreaded "parental advisory" sticker. To celebrate Ja Rule's brilliance, and his recent release from [...]

Mary J Blige's money troubles It appears that the queen of hip hop soul, Mary J Blige really is just like the rest of us – she’s broke! According to news sources Stateside, despite selling 50 million records, Blige can’t pay her rent and has been slapped with an eviction notice. It doesn’t look likely that she’ll go home any time soon as she also owes the tax man a reported $900,000 and is said to have defaulted on a loan of $500,000. The ‘No More Drama’ singer is also involved in a lawsuit with Signature [...]

If Miley Cyrus ever considered a career as a rapper, now would be the perfect time to do it. The former Disney star has revealed even more collaborations for her upcoming fourth studio album (rumored to be titled Danger Zone ), and well, there's a lot of hip-hop influences. Loads of project collaborators have been flowing through the pipeline — including Odd Future's Tyler, the Creator , Mary J. Blige , and the most vocal of the bunch, Pharrell Williams . Skateboard P even compared Miley to Justin Timberlake [...]
MikeWr is back on the blog with this remix of Jay-Z ’s Can’t Knock the Hustle. This is a seminal track for hip hop, as it really put Jay on the world stage. This collab with Mary J brought hip hop onto the mainstream stage and lifted Hova to the top of the game, where he currently enjoys the life… Beyonce is the mother of his child. Nothing else needs to be said.

There are a lot of brilliant R&B remixes out there of classic tracks. This playlist includes some of my favorites from the more recent past, mostly the last month. We'll start with some soulful chill electronic, and then pick up the pace with some experimental hip-hop, house and trap. There's not much else to say - the 90s and these producers speak for themselves. So let's sit back and kick it to best of 90s female R&B remixed, including TLC, Brandy, Mariah Carey, Mary J Blige, SWV, Janet Jackson and Aaliyah! [...]
