Blige - Reflections (A Retrospective) [2LP Clear White]","description":"\u003cp\u003eReflections (A Retrospective) gathers the songs that crowned Mary J. Blige the Queen of Hip-Hop Soul, pressed here across two LPs of clear white vinyl.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHer first greatest hits collection arrived in 2006 on the heels of The Breakthrough and traces a career that began with the street-smart soul of the early nineties. Rather than a simple victory lap, it opens with four new recordings, among them the single that gave the set its forward-looking spirit and a warm duet with John Legend.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThen come the classics. Real Love still bumps with that irresistible blend of hip hop beats and gospel-trained vocals that defined her early sound, and Not Gon' Cry is Babyface's devastating breakup ballad, sung with a fury that never tips into self-pity. Family Affair, built on a Dr. Dre groove, remains one of the most joyous dance-floor anthems of its decade, while No More Drama turns personal pain into a cathartic declaration of freedom.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThrough every era, Blige's voice is the constant, raw and powerful, always sounding like she has lived every word she sings.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLongtime fans will find their favorite chapters here, and newcomers get a compact, emotional history of modern R\u0026amp;B told by one of its greatest voices.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alliance Entertainment","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67768838160674,"sku":"602438447145","price":23.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1020\/2080\/8994\/files\/Mary_J._Blige-Reflections_A_Retrospective_2LP_Clear_White.jpg?v=1794377254","url":"https:\/\/soulfulvinyl.com\/products\/mary-j-blige-reflections-a-retrospective-2lp-clear-white","provider":"Soulful Vinyl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
