Mary J. Blige Honored with Cover of TIME’s Most Influential People Issue

Published: Monday 23rd May 2022 by Sam

All hail the Queen of Hip-Hop/Soul!

TIME Magazine is aptly saluting Mary J. Blige as one of The World’s Most Influential People. 

Arriving in tandem with the unveiling of the TIME 100 Most Influential list, MJB makes for a regal sight on her very own cover of the publication.

More after the jump…

The multihyphenate’s profile  was penned by none other than Nas, who gushed:

“She carved out a lane for herself, and now she can feed the people more than just music. She has a lot more to offer, from her incredible acting career to her wine brand to the Strength of a Woman festival she just launched in Atlanta. And I feel like she’s just getting started. She’s who we wanted her to be, and even more. She became who she’s supposed to be.”

Blige’s honor comes after she was presented with the Icon Award at the Billboard Music Awards 2022.

Oh so deserved! Congrats!

    Love this for Mary. I recall her denouncing the Queen of Hiphop & Soul as if it was an insult. Glad to see she’s embracing the love.
