That Album 'My Life' was the start of my discovery in music that had true meaning,when Mary sung it was different,you felt every lyric her passion was on next level.Thats when i became Mary's biggest fan. They were something about Mary J that made me stand up. 🎶 The goose bumps behind my neck made me listen. Now i know why she's a survivor of rape just like me.🦋 So it made sense when she poured her heart she was telling you her story of what she was dealing with in her life. Thank you, Mary J Blige 😘

I always said I grew up with MJB. What’s the 411 was the introduction but MY LIFE really made me grow up and be ok with knowing what love is. This one my favorite artist and albums. I love her transparency and her heart is pure. Lessons and blessings is what she shared with us. I wish her nothing but happiness and peace as she continues to grow in her journey!!
