Many of the topics on My Life deal with clinical depression, Bliges battling with both drugs and alcohol, as well as being in an abusive relationship. Blige, released on November 29, 1994, by Uptown Records. That album’s hit single, Real Love, is a highlight despite being tucked away in a 17-minute, nine-song opening medley. My Life is the second studio album by American R&B recording artist Mary J. and mad because you know God is blessing me too - Mary J Blige.
