Once you hearken to Mary, we’re reminded we’re not alone in heartbreak.”

In her personal speech, Rolling Stone reports, Blige mentioned, “I’m grateful that I’m liked, and I’m succesful now to provide love. Once I mentioned I needed to be completely satisfied, I actually meant that. And I’m not speaking about simply the happiness the place you’re delusional and suppose all the things is okay. I’m speaking concerning the happiness the place you already know there can be trials, however you’re going to smile anyway, since you imagine you’ll get by means of it. That form of happiness. I’m constructing for enlargement. I’m constructing for longevity. I’m constructing for legacy, and I’m constructing for historical past. This entire time I used to be constructing to be a rock star, and never now. I’m the queen of hip-hop — Soul is a rock star.”
