玛丽·布莱姬
1971年1月11日,Mary J. Blige出生在美国纽约最北部的布朗克斯区,但是她早年的时光确是在佐治亚州的港口城市萨凡纳度过的,后来她和母亲、姐姐一起搬到了纽约东南部的杨克斯,5岁便遭到性侵害的她,童年带给她的只有创伤。不久她从高中辍学,和她的母亲一起打点理发室。16岁时,有一次她在纽约White Plains的一家卡拉OK演唱Anita Baker的“Caught Up in the Rapture”,并录制成了磁带,她的声音把Uptown Records唱片公司的总裁Andre Harrell吸引住了,很快她就得到了该公司的合同,但开始她只是在公司做些幕后工作,比如给大牌歌手做背景和声等。直到1992年,她得到了吹牛老爹Sean "Puffy" Combs的协助,在他的制作下,Mary J. Blige的第一张个人唱片《What's the 411?》终于正式发行,很快这张专辑便成为了Billboard R&B专辑榜的冠军,单曲“Real Love”和“You Remind Me”等分别成为了冠军单曲。这张专辑也是Mary J. Blige最受评论界好评的专辑之一,在这张专辑中,Mary J. Blige凭借着自己出色的声线谐和的把R&B音乐和说唱音乐结合在了一起,被称为是新的Aretha Franklin。
能够把R&B音乐和说唱音乐自然结合在一起,她是女歌手中有史以来的第一人。尽管身为一名黑人歌手,但她的金发和碧眼依然吸引了众人的目光,同时她又带有黑人天生的倔强和强硬,加上童年生活的一些创伤带了的暴躁,这使他变得更具有自己独特的魅力。1994年,还是在Sean "Puffy" Combs的帮助下Mary J. Blige发行了第二张专辑《My Life》,在专辑中Mary J. Blige讲述了她曲折的童年生活,但是在这张专辑以后,Mary J. Blige和Uptown Records唱片公司以及Sean "Puffy" Combs的关系开始变得紧张,最终她和MCA唱片公司签约。
1997年,Mary J. Blige结束了与R&B男子团体Jodeci成员K-Ci长达六年的恋情,同时她发行了第三张专辑《Share My World》,尽管评论界说她失去了那种风格融合的特点,使专辑变得平庸,但是专辑的高销量的势头还是不可低档。在这期间,Mary J. Blige的形象开始渐渐转变,她开始慢慢的摒弃一些自身的坏毛病,诸如懒散和暴力倾向等,到了1999年,她的第四张专辑《Mary》开始变得和以往不同,越发的成熟路线,无论是音乐和服饰,都体现出了她真正成熟、大气的特点。随后的专辑越来越能体现出她自身的特点,2001年的《No More Drama》和当初第一张专辑《What's the 411?》相比简直有天壤之别,更多的自主创作,让专辑更像是Mary J. Blige的个人专辑。2002年,Mary J. Blige又发行了专辑《Dance for Me》,专辑的制作人由西岸说唱大佬Dr. Dre担纲。2003年,第七张个人专辑《Love & Life》与歌迷见面。
Mary J. Blige的专辑中有五张成为冠军专辑,数十首顶尖单曲,并且曾经在1996年凭借歌曲“I'll Be There For You/You're All I Need To Get By”和Method Man一起获得了第38届格莱美最佳说唱组合奖(Best Rap Performance By A Duo Or Group).
2005年岁末,Hip-Hop Soul天后Mary J. Blige发行了第7张个人专辑《The Breakthrough》。专辑在发行的第一周恰逢圣诞节,以72万7千张的高销量获得2005年度最后一周的Billboard 200专辑榜的冠军。单曲“Be Without You”在Top100第三,R&B榜15周冠军。与U2合作的“One”在英国拿到第二,并成为06年英国最畅销单曲NO.35。Mary出现在Busta Rhymes的“Touch It”混音中,化名Brook-Lynn。在唱片中大家可以看到Brook-Lynn的名字,在“Enough Cryin’”和“Gonna Breakthrough”两首歌中大玩了一会说唱。
这张唱片的销量和奖项使06年成为MJB年:美国3白金,世界7白金的销量。3项格莱美,9项BILLBOARD AWARD,2项全美音乐奖,世界音乐奖特别贡献奖(因为组委会得知她当天不能出席颁奖,把奖项取消了)
06年12月,精选《Reflections - A Retrospective》推出,专辑中出现四首新歌。至今销量1,675,000。
在2007年岁末,此时已经成为实力派R&B老将的Mary J.Blige推出了她个人的第8张录音室专辑《Growing Pains》,与上张大获成功的专辑《The Breakthrough》相隔了几乎整两年。在Billboard 200专辑榜中上榜第一周,《Growing Pains》凭借62万9千张的销量成绩获得了当周亚军的好成绩。去年是Mary J.Blige事业上大获成功的一年,《The Breakthrough》使她的个人音乐事业达到了顶峰。但作为一位出道已近20年的老将来说,Blige并没有长时间的享受那种所谓的“成功”,而是很快的投入到了下一张专辑的准备工作当中。在这张新作中,Mary J.Blige参与了其中大部分歌曲的创作。首支打榜单曲“Just Fine”已经在MTV、VH-1等各大电视台中成为热播单曲,而另一首打榜单曲“Work That”也成为苹果iPod的广告歌曲。
The Neptunes、Johnta Austin、Ne-Yo、Stargate、Bryan-Michael Cox、Tricky、Eric Hudson和Sean Garrett均在其中,而另两位大腕Ludacris与Usher还作为嘉宾在其中客串演唱。
MJB说:“唱片的标题灵感来自去年的奥斯卡宴会,著名的脱口秀主持Oprah Winfrey将她带到现场,著名影星梅丽尔斯特里普和妮可基德曼激动地与她拥抱合影,兴奋地说自己如何喜欢她。MARY自问"我值得拥有这些么?"Oprah说道:"因为你身上有她们喜欢的特质"于是,这张唱片的灵感来了:“这是一种成长的时刻.”
09年6月,一支与加拿大说唱歌手Drake合作的单曲“The One”发布,而她的新专辑《Stronger》也计划于2009年12月15日发行。而Mary J. Blige还将客串担任2010年《美国偶像》的评委。
