Since her debut album in 1992, Mary J. has shown an evolution from a streetwise Hip Hop star to a Soulful Diva.  Her tough sexuality has made her an icon and her career progression shows no signs of slowing down.  The amazing this is with Mary J. Blige’s progression she kept her initial fans while obtaining new ones.  This type of cross over appeal and career consistency makes her stronger every year.  There is a greater chance here than you might think.
