Blige may have been dubbed the Queen of Hip Hop Soul very early in her career, but her artistry has never been limited to the Urban spectrum.  Having experimented with sounds related to Gospel, Pop, and even Rock-related offerings, the Grammy-winner’s discography boasts an array of sounds – a point underscored by her most recent endeavor, ‘Stay With Me.’
