At the "Heart of the City" show at the Hollywood Bowl! Yee! I've had the opportunity to see Hova once, during the "Reasonable Doubt" ten year anniversary show at Radio City Music Hall in 2006 and that was an unforgettable moment, especially since we were in New York and everybody was going ape shit. During that event, they announced that there would be a "special guest" and I just knew that it would be Mary J. Blige for "Can't Knock the Hustle". So when the beat dropped and she sashayed in with her unbeweaveably blonde tresses, I lost my effin' mind. Then I realized that something just...wasn't...right. Nevertheless, the "special" guest was Mrs. Carter herself, Beyoncé, singing Mary's part of the song and I thought, "How 'special' is she? She's Jay-Z's residential Plus One!" That just pissed me off. Okay, I gotta give it up to Bey for doing the damn thing, but she is not the soundtrack to my pimply hormone-filled adolescence!
So here is the moment that I've been waiting for. And I just might cry if she sings anything from What's the 411? or My Life. Phatty and Bam, go ahead and shed a tear when Hovito hits the stage...this Bud's for Mary!
