...AND Stephen comes to my rescue against the (big, bad) PR. Yeah, you're right. I HATE R&B. It's only been my main genre of music since, oh...idk, when I bought my first cassette tape when I was 4 or since before you even HEARD of that man in your avatar. Please, young'n, don't run your mouth when you CLEARLY have NO idea what you are talking about. Thank you. LMAO This was funny. I'm mad you fall for that one though. Sometimes I go too hard and have to pray for forgiveness afterwards so I apologize but how was I supposed to know you were joking?

"Thinkin' About You" video has been doing great :) #1 on 106 and Park countdown and MTV Jams video of the week I have faith his singles off this album will do well so that's a good look for the album ;).

Ouch at the album sales.
"Ooh Baby" is a hot slow jam! My other favorite tracks are "Starlight" and "Before She Said Hi". This album is pretty solid.

Got the album last Thursday, it's really good. "Ooh Baby" would be a #1 song on the R&B charts without a doubt. Been trying to find his performances on Alexa Chung and Wendy Williams, but I can't find them anywhere. The Alexa one was very messy and it had so much going on. The Wendy one was a lot better, and I hope the album can rebound somehow.

Do anybody know how "Thinkin' About You" is doing on the charts?? #49 R&B. Thanks, this is one of my favorite songs from the album and i'm glad he released it as single it's just taking a little longer to take off like his first single "Break Up" did as well. A lot of people seem to like "Thinkin about you" though on twitter and it's #1 on 106 n park countdown. I just checked the Urban chart and it's starting to rise on their. This song could be a big hit it's just taking a minute like Pleasure P's "Under" it took a while but it went #1 in Urban. I see "Thinkin about you" doing the same.

"Headboard" ft Plies and Hurricane Chris video premiered on 106 and Park the other day. The song seems to be taking off well too it is currently number 63 on bb r&b chart. I see this being another big hit for Mario especially since Plies is on it."Stranded" being sent out to urban ac and "thinkin about you" steady climbing, it's great to see Mario with several singles out. I will continue to say this era is way better than his last despite sales but this is a singles world now anyway ;)
And another update on Mario he might be starring an some upcoming movies. On his twitter he said he had great meeting with Sony Pics Vice President. They discussed a lot of films and one was the remake of "The Last Dragon". It will be cool if he get the part. He needs to continue his movie career he was in two great movies before "Freedom Writers" and "Step Up" so it's good to see him pick back up where he left off on the acting side of his career :)

I just saw Freedom Writers last week, and he did a great job in it. I was wondering when more film opportunities would come his way.

Caught this guy live a couple years ago. He was really solid vocally, killed it...

I was reading a article on Mario and he's really serious about this movies stuff. He recently audition for a role in the upcoming movie "Little Fockers" which stars Robert Deniro and Ben Stiller. I don't know if he got the part or not but that would be cool. Here's the article and also a nice interview with Mario magicbaltimore.com/just-in/mykel/mario-an-old-school-souls-d-n-a

Wow. I didn't realize it was that low still.
I hope his album is able to gain an increase during the holiday season.

Forgot all about this thread. How "Thinkin About You" been picking up? "Thinkin about you" has basically stalled it peaked at number #46 on r&b billboard. His label has now released "Stranded" as the 3rd single but has only been sent out to Urban AC for right now. And "Stranded" has taken off pretty good on their it's already top 40 on Urban AC. So i'm guessing "Stranded" might be a nice hit for him on Urban. And i'm hoping "Thinkin About You" take off on Rhythmic when it's sent their on Dec 1.

Thanks for that update just saw him on the Soul Train Awards and the performance was a mess. Lol yea the performance was a mess i was cringing when i saw it. I'm tired of him performing breakup it was never a good song anyway and the song just don't suit for a live performance. Sean Garret always taken over the stage jeez!. I'm glad "Break Up" era is over with it doesn't show case Mario's talented vocals like his other songs did. And the performance was short . He recently did a ustream before thanksgiving and say'd he's releasing two mixtapes soon. And he previewed a new song called "In my bag tonight" which was hot. I'm glad he's working on new music now because D.N.A. was a let down. I still believe "Stranded" and "Soundtrack to my broken heart" can be decent hits for him. It's just good he's already started recording new music and he cancelled his 2nd leg of the 106 n park tour it had dates from the end of november to the middle of december. He said he might be going on a tour with Fabolous starting at the top of 2010.

^Thanks for that info. He needs to land a nice supporting role in a big movie and then work on his music. He can have a long career ahead of him if he takes all the proper steps. The man is super talented and can sing better than some of the other R&B stars out there, not calling any names...
They should release "Ohh Baby" to Urban radio because that would be an easy Top 10 song.
