Blige would have been plastered on them. She came from drug-addicted beginnings and relationships with men that pushed to the brink of destruction. Mary J. Blige is the original Amy Winehouse.</description><dc:language>en-US</dc:language><generator>CommunityServer 2.0 (Build: 60217.2664)</generator><item><title>re: Mary J.

However, this new album &amp;quot;Growing Pains&amp;quot; may continue to be an evolution of an artist who is growing..I luv MJB,but she cannot stay in one mode..&amp;quot;What's the 411?&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;MyLife&amp;quot; are still the highlights of an era gone by..It cannot be repeated!..Keep the soul coming MJB!</description></item><item><title>re: Mary J.

She is &amp;nbsp;no longer (Hopefully) living a dangerous lifestyle and choses to mirror that in her music. To bash her music because it does not relate to a horrible/street life is down right irresponsible. It seesm that all her listeners are not growing up as she is...... And to put Amy Winehouse in the same convo as Mary is Blasfemy...... Some of these reviews on this site are pure garbage. &amp;nbsp;</description></item><item><title>re: Mary J.
