Mary J. Blige Introduces Sharshell on ’106 & Park’

Mary J. Blige paid a visit to the set of “106 & Park” on Monday evening. The Queen of Hip-Hop Soul was there to introduce Starshell, a singer-songwriter signed to her label Matriarch Records.

Starshell, who co-wrote “Love Lockdown” with Kanye West, met Mary through a producer who knew Mary’s husband Kendu. “She’s honest about who she is,” the R&B veteran said of her protégée. “She’s not trying to be something she’s not.
