CAM NEWTON GOT REAL WITH MARIO ABOUT WHO CAN “SANGGG” DO YOU AGREE?!

If you haven’t tuned into Cam Newton’s “Funky Friday” podcast, go ahead and make that your next listen — and let me tell you right now, start with the Mario episode. Trust me.

Mario popped up on the couch to talk family, faith, and fame — and if you didn’t know, the R&B legend just celebrated his 39th birthday. Wild, right? The man’s been in this game since 15 years old, when he dropped his self-titled debut album. From being adopted at 13, moving from Baltimore to New Jersey, to now raising his new baby boy, Mario’s story is one of growth, purpose, and longevity.

Now, the conversation was fire from the jump, but it took a turn when Cam decided to “keep it funky.” He didn’t ask Mario; he told him: “A lot of these singers today… can’t really SANG.”

From there, Cam started naming names, asking Mario to keep it real — “Can they sing… or sanggg?”

Mario tried to dodge the heat with some good laughs, but Cam wasn’t letting up.

He made it clear — it’s all about Mario’s standard. Here’s how the list went:

• Bryson Tiller – Mario said it was tough at first but came back around (Cam started and ended with Bryson, btw).

• Trey Songz – Yes.

• The Weeknd – Yes.

• Ray J – Yes, when he wants to.

• Jacquees – Yes.

• Omarion – “Hit or miss.”

• Bobby V – Yes.

• Chris Brown – Yes.

The room got hot when Mario broke down his Bryson Tiller take — saying Bryson’s cool for his type of music, but he’s not who you go to for vocal pulls. And honestly? He’s not wrong. You go to Bryson for vibe!

But let’s be real; I don’t agree with all Mario’s answers. Still, one thing about him; he’s a star player in the R&B game, and the conversation showed why he’s still respected after all these years.

So now I gotta ask y’all…Who do YOU think can really “sanggg” in today’s R&B? 👀

We outside debating this one all week.
