The R&B super star opened to People lately concerning Flavor Flav’s remarks contrasting her to Taylor Swift, in the feeling that they both cover relatable life experiences. “I mean, I love Taylor Swift. She sings about what’s going on in her life,” Blige claimed. “It’s kind of similar because she definitely gives you a piece of a relationship in a minute and whatever she may be dealing with. And that’s just her therapy. That’s just her way of expressing herself through her song, and people relate.”
She included, “It’s definitely kind of the same thing. I use my music as my therapy and a way to escape, or a way to express myself and just say how I’m feeling. What else are we going to do?”
Earlier this year, throughout a meeting with HOT 97’s Ebro in the Morning, Flav compared both vocalists. “She’s writing a lot about her, you know, experiences that she goes through in life. Just like Mary J. Blige — you know what I’m saying?” the Public Enemy celebrity shared.

So my manager got in contact with Taylor Swift’s people and they hooked me up some tickets and passes,” he stated. “When we walked over to the tent where I was supposed to be at, a lot of these fans were coming up to me — these young kids, man, I’m surprised they even knew who I was! — and they start giving me these friendship bracelets. Next thing you know, I have friendship bracelets all up and down my arm. We were trading bracelets and everything! Her fanbase embraced me, and I embraced them back.”
He proceeded,“So, I went home and I started really listening to Taylor. I’m listening to her music, and I’m like, ‘Yo, this girl is dope!’”
