"Feel Inside - Basically Mary J. Blige singing over Wu-Tang's "Triumph" track, with Nas providing the rap. Personally, I dig it. Mary J is trying to bring back that 90's boom bap R&B sound with her new album, which isn't a bad thing.
Not feeling this at all. The album is terrible! The Darkchild remake of Chaka Khan's "Ain't Nobody" is awful. The album has European house/techno keyboard sounds and too much auto tune and vocal effects. Why the hell is this album called "My Life II" when it has nothing to do with Mary's "My Life" album. The original "My Life" album was a 90s R&B CLASSIC. Also TOO many damn rappers on the album. Nas, Brook Lynn (Mary J. , She needs to stick to singing), Busta Rhymes, Drake and Rick Ross. Work on some good R&B songs and just sing! They should have had Chucky Thompson produce this album and used lots of live instruments on the songs.
