It’s here!
Mary J. Blige showcases the ‘Strength of A Woman’ in the video for the album’s lead single ‘Thick Of It.’
Timely lyrically, the release arrives during the singer’s widely publisized split from husband/manager Kendu Issacs.
Already resonating with listeners, the track has already hit #1 on Urban Adult Contemporary radio.
Is ‘Thick’ set to become her MJB’s next big hit?
Peep the video below and let us know…
We’d have loved to see a narrative play out given how piercing the lyrics are. Yet, considering how current the drama in her life is, any such approach would have seen the story depicted taken literally. Something that perhaps wouldn’t bode well legally – especially with her former boo claiming he’s being made to look the villain.
In any case, it’s simple and effective. An updated ‘Not Gon’ Cry’ somewhat. Hopefully, it gifts the song solid streams.
‘Strength Of A Woman’ is set for a December release.

Good job Mary J
Omgg. Mary J Bligggge wowww stunning amazing
Wow….i am getting the album for sure.
Mary looking super but wondered if she would be daring enough to do a ploted storyline but the thirst of Kendu defo stopped that.
Love this true MJB song.
Yes Mary J Blige, didn’t start feeling her voice until she sang “Give Me You!” Lawd that song really sored & soothed my soul!!
The instrumental isn’t catchy soil doubt it’ll make it on the hot 100. Good job though mary
This is soul to the core
It doesn’t have to hit the HOT 100 to be a smash. Its the fast #1 on the urban soul chart in nearly 20 years…
Well served MJB!
Go Mary Go!
I like the song and video
I need a Monica/Mary colab ASAP.
Well over due. Mo loves her to death as a woman and friend.
MJB gives the real. Her evolution has been wonderful to see since raw 411 days.
Can we just take a moment to applaud MJB for delivering R&B hits to the world since the early 90s?! And, not to mention, she’s aging like fine wine.
Hot song!
Don’t like this song
