Mary J. Blige Joined by 50 Cent, Jill Scott and More at Mothers’ Day-Themed ‘Strength of a Woman’ Show in Brooklyn: Concert Review
Mary J. Blige was joined by 50 Cent, Jill Scott, Method Man, the Lox and more at her Mothers’ Day-themed ‘Strength of a Woman’ concert in Brooklyn.
The Saturday concert has always been the centerpiece of the weekend, and last night’s was no different, with MJB the VIP calling upon 50 Cent, Jill Scott, Fat Joe, Jadakiss and Lola Brooke to rock the stage at Brooklyn’s Barclays Center. Jadakiss, draped in a matching beige jacket and Jordans, was the first big gun, coming out to heavy cheers with his verse to “Back to Life 2001,” a collabo between himself and Mary for DJ Clue. Fif is obviously loving the ultra-competitive climate rap is in right now, as he started his set with his Ja Rule and Murder Inc.’s “Back Down.” He stood on a riser high above the stage — reminiscent of the Rock’s new “Final Boss” ring entrance — illuminated with a spotlight and a video behind him of a dark blue sky with flashes of lightning before he went into his bag of bangers.
