Mary J. Blige
Album : Love & Life
Release Date : August 26, 2003
Label : Geffen Records

Customer review :
After the big success of her 2001/2002, Grammy award winning album "No more drama", Mary is back with this excellent production.
On "Love & Life" you’ll find a Mary more concentrated on love songs, songs with more affection if we compare this album with her others, but Mary doesn’t leave fun behind either.
The first single was "Love at first sight" which became a Top 20 hit, follwed by "Ooh !" a song with an excellent performance from Mary. The song climmed to #34. And finally the lastest single was "Not today" next to Eve. This album has special appearences from Jay Z, P. Diddy (who also produced the album next to Mary), 50 Cent, Eve and Method Man. "Love & Life" debuted at #1 and has been certified Platinum, with this Mary prooves that she’s still the Queen. She’s really good and her voice is amazing, there are some songs in this album where you can feel her crying while singing the songs and when she wants to make you party she does it also very good.

From my point of view the best songs are : "Love & life", "Not today", "Ooh !", "Let me be the 1", "Feel like makin’ love", "Special part of me" and "Love at first sight".
