Mary bares her soul

Advantages: Where to begin?
Disadvantages: None

...there is something that sets Mary apart from these others and her latest album has firmly secured her place on the throne in the genre. Gliding her sultry vocals over all of the fifteen tracks with apparent ease, it’s easy to recognize the influence that her mother’s Gladys Knight and Otis Redding records had on her and she takes these stimuli and mixes them with polished and peaceful R’n’B beats.

Advantages: All of it is good
Disadvantages: none i can think of

...decade and that it redefined MARY J BLIGE and her talents and to be honest I was not convinced. I didn't hear any tracks but I presumed he was following the hype however then I saw the video for ALL THAT I CAN SAY aand i was in shock...what a video and what a song, strong powerful vocals and lyrics Lauren Hill really did well. I was to learn however that this was not an album with one good hit and the song "Your Child" gave me the chills. I kept ...
...really changed my view of MARY J BLIGE and her talents. A few years ago when "Not gonna cry" from "Waiting to exhale " soundtrack came out i thought that was the peak of her career but i was wrong. Mary is the album that should be in every CD player in the world, its that good. ...
