Mary J. Blige
Over the years and through the tears, Mary J. Blige has been more than
just the finest and fullest practitioner of modern R&B. She is the
woman who voices what we can only feel. Through her music, Mary acts as
both sister confessor and conduit to real emotions and hard fought hurts.
Few would have imagined back in 1992, with the explosive debut of "What's
the 411?," that this young girl from the projects of Yonkers, NY,
in less than ten years time would become both a multi-faceted talent and
a template for contemporary R&B, and that she would release one live
album, four studio albums, see them go to the top of the charts, earn
numerous industry awards and be able to bring her idiosyncratic brand
of soul to audiences worldwide and cut across race and genre boundaries
in the process.
On TV, on radio, on CD, in the clubs, the streets, and the bedroom, the
honest and humane songs of Mary J. Blige have blossomed into modern classics,
and she, in return, reigns as the undisputed Queen of Hip Hop Soul. She
was crowned that back in 1992 and throughout the course of her career,
from the brilliant "My Life" through the powerful "Share
My World," to the triumphant "Mary" to "No More Drama"'s
blend of prayer and partying, Mary has reclaimed her rights to that crown
again and again.
Mary's charity work is as much a part of her journey as the music she
creates. She is seen in anti-drug public service announcements, has worked
with various education groups and has helped raise monies for people with
AIDS.
Mary received the Rolling Stone Do Something Award for her humanitarian
work and she was recently honored with a lifetime service award by 100
Black Men. She also received Rock The Vote's highest honor, the Patrick
Lippert Award. Mary continues as the spokeswoman for MAC's Viva Glam III,
with all proceeds from the lipstick earmarked to AIDS education and research
and her tireless work for People with Aids included an appearance at the
United Nation's AIDS Awareness Day fundraiser.
