Mary J. Blige Dishes on Her First-Ever Kanye West Collaboration for New Album: 'The Song is Crazy'

The performer, who is currently in New Orleans filming a role in the indie drama Mudbound opposite Carey Mulligan and Garrett Hedlund for director Dee Rees, confirmed in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter that she did, in fact, do a song with West. But she won't say what it's called.

"I don't want to give up the name of the song yet, but the album is mostly complete," Blige teases to THR. "But I absolutely got a chance to work with the great Kanye West. And the song is crazy — I can't wait for people to hear it."

"The flavor of the track starts off with piano keys. It’s very dramatic in the beginning and it goes into a loud horn. That is, like an old sample horn," she said. "And then this gigantic beat kicks in and I sing. He rhymes after my two verses. It's incredible. He kills it. I wish I could give you the title, you’d flip but I just can’t do it yet."

the album is mostly complete,

Originally posted by SinterFold_ Kanye is actually a damn good R&B producer so im actually looking really forward to this. He's given so many R&B gems such as Alicia Keys 'You Don't Know My Name' to Mariah Carey's 'Stay The Night from the Emancipation of Mimi down to The Weeknd's 'Tell Your Friends'. When he produces R&B tracks he makes pure magic. So this is most definitely going to be something to look out for. Keyshia Cole debut single 'I Changed My Mind' is worth a mention as well

Originally posted by jaded Queen better do a version without Kanye in it. I use him as a producer though. Just not here for a feat.
