In 2017, Mary released her first album in three years, Strength of a Woman, which climbed to number three on the US Billboard 200 albums chart - making it her highest charting release in nearly a decade.
During an interview with The Guardian at the time, the songstress discussed regaining her life after her divorce from former manager Martin 'Kendu' Isaacs.
'When it comes to music now, I know my gut is great. That’s what I lost, my gut and my gift. But I got it back. It’s back now', she explained.
Mary split from her husband of 12 years, Kendu, in 2016, with their divorce being finalised in June last year.

Reflecting on her shock split, the singer said at Essence Fest 2016: 'The journey that got us here is that every woman can relate to, a woman out there fighting for her marriage.
'When I first started writing my album, I was fighting for my marriage. There were a lot of layers to me peeled back for this marriage. I really thought I did [find] the love of my life.
'Being Mary J. Blige the celebrity is secondary and I’m a human being first and I suffer just like everyone else.
Revealing she turned to prayer, the New Yorker added: 'I believe that I wasn’t given this career or this job as a singer or this gift from God to sit down and say, "I’m going to suffer from the world in silence and die." And it’s therapeutic for me as well. So, you know, that’s why.'
