In an exciting collaboration, Mary J. Blige, a foundational artist in the genre of hip-hop soul, has teamed up with rapper Fabolous for a nostalgic new single titled “Breathing.” This track marks a return to the soulful, throwback sound that has defined Blige’s illustrious career.
Mary J. Blige’s distinctive voice has been a cornerstone in the fusion of hip-hop and soul, a genre she has helped pioneer. Her extensive discography includes numerous chart-topping hits and critically acclaimed albums, solidifying her status as a musical icon. Earlier this year, Blige achieved a significant milestone by being inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. Reflecting on this honor, she shared her deep gratitude: “I’m still trying to process this whole thing. It’s a big deal. I’m just so grateful because I know it didn’t have to be this way, but it is this way, and I give all the credit to God. I don’t even know what else to do. It’s just so humbling,” she said. “I don’t know what to do besides be grateful and thankful.”
Despite this monumental achievement, Blige is not resting on her laurels. She has announced that she is working on a new album, which she hinted might be her final project. In an interview with People magazine in late April, she revealed, “It’s probably [her] last,” but emphasized her enjoyment of the creative process. “I’m actually in the studio right now recording more music, and I’m having fun. I’m having fun no matter what happens,” she added.
One of the standout tracks from her upcoming album is “Breathing,” a collaboration with Fabolous that showcases Blige’s signature style. The single is infused with the classic sound that fans have come to love, blending soulful melodies with a dynamic beat. The accompanying music video further amplifies the track’s vibrant energy, offering a visual feast that complements the song’s uplifting vibe.
