My Life

Mary J. Blige

Seventy minutes of heavy-hearted soul built on dusty hip-hop loops. A raw, internal monologue that defined the emotional architecture of the nineties.

November 29, 1994 · MCA Records

A heavy, blue-hued journey through personal darkness that finds a sliver of light in the act of singing it out.

Where This Album DepartsEach spoke is a trait. The orange shape shows where this album pulls away from — or holds to — the rest of the artist’s catalogue. Tap for more.

Rainy Day saturates this record far more than the artist's norm.
