That was another thing. Lots of mentions about 'legacy' and 'rules'. And then almost everyone disregarding legacy and breaking rules. Surprisingly though...for real...the one person who didn't want to break the rules (and I don't think did) was Cottonmouth. All the dirt he did and he didn't break the rules.

Got some Hot Caribbean Blend waiting for you.
Mariah is such a complex character
She is a amalgamation of so much Of the Black Woman's plight...

The unspoken abuse the blame the shame
Her skin her looks
