MARY J BLIGE My Life (2020 UK/EU 17-track double album 2-LP, remastered ad pressed on classic black vinyl. Widely hailed as one of the most powerful and personal albums in R&B history, Mary J. Blige's My Life stands as the defining statement of the Queen of Hip-Hop Soul. Originally released in 1994, this emotionally raw and sonically lush record captured Blige at her most vulnerable and visionary - transforming pain into empowerment through songs that continue to resonate decades later. Produced by Chucky Thompson and Prince Charles Alexander, My Life blends the classic soul warmth of Roy Ayers, Curtis Mayfield, Isaac Hayes, and Al Green samples with the atmospheric production that became the hallmark of '90s R&B. Tracks like "I'm Goin' Down", "Be Happy", and the title song "My Life" reveal Blige's unguarded honesty and vocal intensity, while the album's interludes and collaborations lend an unfiltered diary-like intimacy. Critically acclaimed upon release, My Life earned a Grammy nomination for Best R&B Album and went triple platinum. It has since been recognised by Rolling Stone, Time, and Blender as one of the greatest albums of all time - a cornerstone of soul-infused hip-hop that redefined modern R&B.
