Stevie J delved into his journey in the music industry, reflecting on his return to the Bad Boy label in 2003 to work on Mary J. Blige's "Love and Life" album. Stevie J contributed three songs to the album, marking his reunion with Bad Boy after a three-year hiatus. A particularly interesting anecdote revolved around his involvement in a track originally produced by Mario Winans, where Stevie J offered to replace a problematic sample, thus becoming part of the song.
Stevie J also touched on his collaborations with Mariah Carey but acknowledged a slowdown in his music career during that period. He attributed this to being surrounded by the wrong company, which negatively impacted his professional path. However, he emphasized the importance of learning from these experiences, ultimately recognizing the value of being cautious and prioritizing family and future aspirations over reckless affiliations.
