Iconic GRAMMY® and Emmy Award-winning and Oscar-nominated artist, actress, producer, and
entrepreneur Mary J. Blige is a figure of inspiration, transformation, and empowerment. With a
track record of eight multi-platinum albums, nine GRAMMY® Awards (37 nominations), an Emmy
award, two Academy Award nominations, two Golden Globe nominations, and a SAG nomination,
Blige has cemented herself as a global superstar. In October 2024, she will be inducted into the
Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
Influenced at an early age by the music of Aretha Franklin, Chaka Khan and Gladys Knight, Blige
brought her own gritty, urban-rooted style—fusing hip-hop, soul, and honest, frank lyrics—to the
forefront on her 1992 debut album What’s the 411? Blige continued to redefine R&B and began
forging a unique niche for herself on her second album, 1994’s My Life.
Each subsequent album she released reads like a chapter from an autobiography leading to
February 2022, when Blige released her 15th studio album Good Morning Gorgeous, which has
since earned her six 2023 Grammy nominations including Album and Record of the Year.
