Overview
We don't need no hateration, holleration in this dancerie, because Mary J. Blige is bringing her unique blend of hip hop, rhythm, blues, and soul to Melbourne in April. As part of her trip to our great southern land with Bluesfest, one of the most notable figures in the scene is hitting up Hamer Hall on April 12.
Blige has played her part in redefining the genre of rhythm and blues since the early nineties, with her twelve albums since 1992's What's The 411? selling over fifty million copies. Her second release, My Life, has been rated one of the greatest albums of all time. Aside from the records and accolades that all come tumbling down at her feet, Blige's mixture of rich, soulful vocals and sharp lyricism with slick hip hop beats defines her as one of the true greats of the R'n'B genre.
Rather than becoming just a trip down memory lane, Blige continues to record new tunes, cementing her status as royalty. Her latest single, U + Me (Love Lesson), is an absolute certified banger that blends old school sound with modern production techniques that lends a fresh life to her style, so get down to watch a legend of the game Work That.
Catch Mary J. Blige at Bluesfest 2017 in Byron Bay, or at her Melbourne sideshow at Hamer Hall on Wednesday April 12.
