Mary J. Blige Speaks On Healing, Realizing Her Worth, New Documentary, New Music + More 

This woman used to sing me to sleep when i was sleeping in cars back in the day. Now i have a home, good job, and a wonderful wife. I LOVE YOU MARY!

Mary Is The Fly Auntie Who Got Her Shit Together,Left The Hood & Bossed Up

This lady is a natural beauty.She is absolutely gorgeous. I am so very glad she finally realized her self-worth.

"Stop being afraid of you. That's you. That big thing that you're running away from. That's you!" Chills

“Forgiveness doesn’t necessarily mean reconciliation” -Mary J. Blige

A person who doesn’t call herself Queen but most certainly deserves the Crown!

Mary will forever be relevant just for being Mary. She doesn’t have to record another song and we will show up just to hear the catalog that already exists.

Mary does not need to do a Verzuz unless it’s her vs. her 😂 there’s no one to compare her to! Completely in her own lane.

Mary J. Bilge means everything to the culture. She belongs in the HOF.

“ I don’t trust people with my emotions”. I felt this one….My sister MARY J BLIGE❤️

I still feel like her heart is still hurting...she's still so guarded. You can tell her craft is truly a labor of love

When she said the little girl in her has to be taken care of because she can get (adult) me hurt....... That's so damn real. And that's what drives me to keep my boundaries in place. I gotta protect that little girl and this grown woman right here today. I'm too precious.

“ I don’t have time to waste being mad at you, I don’t care.” People take notes.

"Forgiveness does not necessarily mean reconciliation... I don't need to reconcile... All you need to know is that I forgive you... and please don't come over here... Because every day I have to remember that I forgave you... That's a process... We have to remember that we forgave a person because when you see them, you've got to remember... " ~ Mary J. Blige Man... I felt that when she said this. I already know how that feels.

When she said she didn’t trust people with her feelings and emotions I FELT THAT SHIT DEEPLY. We go through so much of people minimizing our trauma and experiences we just say F-it! Wall up, stone faced, no emotions and just function through. You never know what folk are going through.

We are soldiers, we are strong & nothing embarrasses us easily!- Mary -love you Mary

"Forgiveness doesn't necessarily mean reconciliation." 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Angela was really in her bag in this interview.. you could tell from her questions that she is a genuine fan of Mary J

“That thing you feel is you the thing you’re afraid of is you” I felt that

Mary is a mixture of hood and classy. The around the way girl that reminds me so much of myself and where i come from. Keep growing and glowing!

“When you don’t know who you are, you can’t treat yourself well.”

Mary is so pretty to me. I always loved her almond shaped eyes. She’s been through so much. I just adore her.

I couldn't imagine being in Mary J's presence. I would just be an emotional wreck! I suffered so much trauma and abuse from my Mother and her music got me through so many heartaches. I'm so grateful to have been able to hear everything that she's ever put out. I was born in '82, so she raised me. She's my Auntie and don't even know it. 💐❤️

Happy to see a black woman avoiding bleaching or lightening treatment. She all up in that sun, and it looks gorgeous. Gold and glowing is a good look.

I will never ever get tired of this woman. Never.

She has the the most beautiful skin tone. She's beautiful

A hood queen that has never forgotten who she is and where she came from… Mary is one of the greatest artist of our time… a survivor!!! Her realness is an entire movement that embodies so much of many women’s story and triumph. ❤️❤️❤️

Her voice is iconic. Singers still be hittin her runs, and style of singing.

The “Blonde” hair originator!! 😂😂👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾

I'm glad the queen actually realizes she's A Queen.

"I didn't know I was worthy of anything"... The most honest and real thing I've ever heard... This is something that more people than not feel... Find your worth... know your worth... Live your worth!!!... Salute Black Queen!!! ✊🏾💪🏾😁

She’s so humble. I love her energy.

This woman's voice has transcended over decades and has touched many generations. Truly a young living legend.

Mary, Mariah, and Toni deserve all the love in the world. I’m so happy they get their flowers.

She's been through a lot. Pray for anyone suffering like this finds deliverance.

I’ll never forget seeing her in concert and she gave us hours of herself, she went way over her time and performed so many hits. Love you for life Mary, your music and voice touches so deeply. A Queen.

I'm glad she learned from mistakes. Now she appreciates herself and others. That's the key to fighting depression

She looks even more beautiful as she gets older

Ugh Mary always brings me to tears. When she said about talking to her younger self "cause that's you". Uff😭

Look here yall, she have given enough of herself in each and every song.... Let Mary enjoy the power of being Mary J Blige.... flowers for this beautiful black woman.....

People always want to talk bout this woman' struggle. Her MUSIC is legendary.

When Yee said "This is Mary J Blige. Have some respect!" I felt that in the depths of my soul

I feel like Brandy went through that stage of not realizing how special she was to us young black girls. It used to make me cringe to hear her talk about depression and what not like ma’am you’re my whole idol get it together please 😩❤️❤️

i'm 31 so i grew up on Mary but i just never looked at her in sexual way like i did some other 90s RnB singers, she was always auntie Mary to me, my fly ass cool auntie lol

MJB’s music meant so much to Black ppl especially Black women from the hood struggling with daily life. From love to unhappiness to everything. Such an amazing interview from such an amazing woman.

Working on yourself is one of the hardest things you will ever do🙏

You can tell she been healed from the last interview she did on the show in 2017. Good for her. She deserves to be happy.

When Mary talked about how much Anita Baker influenced her, I literally started crying. I don't even think I would be the woman I am today if it wasn't for Anita Baker, so I understand.

This woman ages like fine wine 🍷. I can’t wait to watch this on Prime.

Mary is a LEGEND and she has made music so possible for all of us to relate to. She touched the human spirit and so grateful that she's here to be so candid, empowering and hella authentic 🙏💛✨ Love you MJB! Infinite ♾ Appreciation!

We all could have lost Mary like the other big names celebrities. But Mary j blige was strong 💪🏿 and now she’s here to live to tell her testimony

She surely helped me get through my depression, divorce just listening to MJ music 🎶l was about to do something to myself in Germany and her song came on l just started crying out to God. And l kept playing playing it over,over 😒Thanks Mary&God 😊🙏🏾she is truly the Queen...the impact of your music you put into it goes through the People's soul w0w....

something about Ms Mary j Blige, love this black woman.

The only bad thing about this interview is the fact it was only 39 minutes. Great interview, Great Singer, Great Woman. Mary J Blige is a Icon. We Love you Queen👑.

It’s not easy to talk about pain. She’s a conqueror!!! I love Mary 💕

"We from the hood and nothing embarrasses us easy" I think every black person can relate to this

This woman’s music carried me through some of the most hurtful situations in my life. I think she’s one of the most inspirational woman alive. Much love and blessings Mary❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

My all time favorite.. A real legend.. She’s our generation’s Aretha.. My Life is still my all time favorite album period

Why almost the 500 thumbs down? Damn, this was a very powerful, inspirational, uplifting, positive interview. Dang! 🤔 Everyone has hard times and it's never to late to find peace, and to love yourself!

I know that’s right, “ I don’t want to see you, cause I got to remind myself everyday I forgive you-Mary J Blige” yessss👏🏾👏🏾

Let me tell ya something. Let’s talk about Mary’s fashion style. I don’t like the majority of what artist wear but, Mary is one of those people that dress like an everyday working woman who enjoy quality fabric and rich colors. It’s a chic and sophisticated style with a taste of European royalty. It’s a wardrobe that has value ☺️

Mary is really beautiful. Not just inner, but outer beauty. She has such a pretty face.

This woman is truly genuine. Inside and out 💯💯💯

I remember watching my mom after her divorce singing Mary at the top of her lungs in her room. She was so happy! Seeing my mom that happy was my first introduction to MJB. Its beautiful to see that people have connected to her music in so many different ways. The good and the bad!

💜💜💜💜💜Give this Queen ALLL HER FLOWERS WHILE SHES STILL HERE!!!! 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💕💕💕💕💕she’s so beautiful!!!

This the most I’ve heard Envy prepared for an interview. Good for him.

I love her so much. Her humility, self-awareness and worthiness are so pronounced in this interview.

We must heal the inner child in all of us🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

DJ Envy was present on this one and did his homework. Well done Envy.

This Queen has golden skin...what a beautiful woman...

These 40 minutes were like therapy thank you Sis❤️🌹

This is the only female artist that I've ever seen my older brother fan over. He was serious about his Mary cd's. Lol

I didn’t know I needed a Mary J interview until now.

Mary’s answers are so raw. She’s so real! I really felt personal with her on this interview! Today’s celebrities you can tell they have so much pain but they’re so disattached from emotions they don’t speak on the real shit. So I really appreciate this interview

I genuinely love Mary. She’s always be so transparent. She’s gotten me through some hard days! 🗣We Love you Mary!

I've always loved Mary J. B. since day one! No weapon formed against her shall prosper. May she always have continued success in her life endeavors.💪 😘💐❤🙏

For y'all who don't know, she keeps mentioning Andre.....she's talking about the late Andre Harrell, who gave her her first break, and she told him before he died, how much she appreciated him..

Let me tell yall. When Mary J Blige did her own set for BET i had the tv blasting baby. Nobody could do her show like she can. #1 fan lets geaux Mary

I hope Mary knows now how beautiful and important she is.

Forgiveness is an obedient act before God, then guard youself from letting that wrong happen to you again..forgiveness does not mean the person can repeat what they have done to you...and forgiveness gives you peace..unforgiveness drain you and keep you hurting and miserable..God help those that struggle with forgiveness..In the Name of Jesus..Amen .

That hair color is HER COLOR!!😍😍 SO GORGEOUS

When my mom was dying of breast cancer. I mourned her death while she was still here. I would go home from spending the day with her and I would go up to the spare bedroom. I would have some liquor with me and I would play Mary J. Blige. All of her album's. Songs from movies soundtracks. Everything she did. But no album has ever done for me what My Life has. I would sit in that room and sing and cry and cry and cry and cry. Sometimes for one hour sometimes for 8 hours. I couldn't leave until I was done for that day. My husband would not bother me no matter how long I took. Many of nights he went to sleep with music banging the entire house because he knew that what I was doing was saving my life. I don't say that lightly. This is my truth. It has been 8 years now that my mom has been gone. Only god knows for sure but I can't say I would be here today if it wasn't for Mary's music. I grew up on Soul music. So it's always been in me. It's like medicine or food or air. The words on her records are me. Not a little or similar...word for word. Her music feeds my soul. And I thank God for that. And I appreciate Mary for that. For me before Mary there was Marvin. And after Marvin there is Mary. God bless

Mary J has helped me through the end of my marriage, my thoughts of suicide and following break ups. I was so hyped seeing her receive her icon award because she is truly an icon. I hope that she can truly one day receive and accept the flowers that are given to her. She still seems guarded but she is great!!

Mary is a God sent for women: I mean her name is “Mary”

Share my World literally was the soundtrack of my life 97 and 98 forever grateful Mary 👑

Mary deserves all the accolades and acknowledgements. True legend and queen.

"STOP BEING AFRAID OF YOU. THAT BIGGER THING THAT YOU'RE RUNNING FROM IS YOU. " 😪 WHY AM >>I

Love Mary!!! shes someone that probably had to go through so much pain in her life whilst healing people through her music! I relate to her so much. She looks so good too, that hair !!

I’m glad she knows how special she is to us. She is that strength for us and I wish we could be that strength for her.

She is the ultimate! A singer, a performer, an artist, a strong woman, a surviver, just absolutely amazing!! Legend Mary is in the building!!!!

That “My Life” album truly helped me pull thru when younger. I felt someone could relate with my pain. She found her inner peace and so have I. We love U Mary 😘

"If I don't take care of her, she can get me hurt." WOW

It's the ole skool 90's vibe that Mary's hairstyle and energy is giving for me. 👌🏾💕

Mary is a legend who should be cerebrated enough...

I admire her so much for her honesty. We watched her go through all her pain and grew from it. Thanks Mary J. Blige for all that you do!!

I love people stories about their lives, especially celebrities. It's my motivation for a podcast. Discussing Forgiveness, self-love, anxiety and depression.

That documentary was everything 🔥It also seems that if God didn’t numb her to her success, he couldn’t use her as the vessel she is today. 🙌🏾👑

WOW, SHE IS THE REALEST!!!!!!!!!!!!! - This is a lesson to anyone who thinks they don't deserve the good in life!!

I honestly listened like really listened to Mary J. Mary J Blige is a real one. seriously...she def deserve her flowers and more. I am a regular woman from brooklyn and I wish I sometimes can sit with artists like Mary. Hopefully I wouldnt be nervous. The authencity was real with everyone.

I just had a whole therapy session listening to Mary🙌🏾❤️
