What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger. Mary J. Blige has been through the storm and is singing about it on her new album.
The Queen of Hip-Hop Soul will release her 9th studio album Stronger on November 24. The first single, “The One,” features Drake and can be seen in a new AT&T ad airing now.
“The album represents who and what I am right now,” MJB said on set of the commercial. “I’m a stronger human being after all the growing pains. It’s about life, love, change, strength—mostly really knowing who you are and being confident in that.”
The follow-up single will be the title track, “Stronger,” which can also be found on the soundtrack to More Than a Game. The documentary about NBA star LeBron James’ high school days in Akron, Ohio, opens October 2 in select theaters, while the soundtrack arrives September 22.
A version of “Stronger” featuring vocals from Chris Brown leaked last month. Listen below.
Great song! She don't need CB's version plus I don't think she would approve of having a womanbeater on her album cuz I know she loves Rihanna. The One and this song be smashes for her tho!
^Oh aiighttt. I didn't know it was released already.
I still think its too early to be announcing the next single though, I want a music video for "The One".
None of these songs are single material. Her sales are gonna suffer if she doesn't drop "QUEEN" or some crazy ballad like "Be Without You".
!!!!!!!!!
She needs Queen to get her publicity like Mariah did with Obsessed. Mary can't do pop, she doesn't have the voice for it which why Stronger FAILS. Its a pop song that needs a pop voice. I'm glad she's gettin back in touch with her hip hop roots on The One but damn Amerie & Monica are doing the MJB sound better. :-\

mary is a God fearing woman and a forgiving woman so she wouldnt shun chris cuz she's all about change and progress
I'm listening to the No More Drama RE-RELEASE album and its lame and has some of her worst vocals..... ooo I see where Keyshia gets it from. I wanna hear what the original album sounded like.
The One and this song be smashes for her tho! 
I was thinking the same thing.
