Mary J. Blige Taps Kanye West, Missy Elliott, & Quavo for 'Strength of a Woman'

Twenty-five years since her debut, Mary J. Blige showcases the Strength of a Woman with her 13th album. After unveiling the cover art and release date, the R&B icon has revealed the star-studded tracklisting.

The 14-track set kicks off with the Kanye West-assisted “Love Yourself.” Other guests include Kaytranada (“Telling the Truth”), Prince Charlez (“Smile”), and Missy Elliott, DJ Khaled, and Quavo, who all appear on “Glow Up.”

The singles “Thick of It” and “U + Me (Love Lesson),” both inspired by Blige’s divorce from husband Kendu Isaacs, also make the cut. The themes of empowerment and self-love are present on tracks like “Set Me Free,” “Indestructible,” and “Survivor.”
