Mary J. Blige | Just Fine

After the overlooked Be Without You of 2005 and the following drear-fest that was Enough Cryin', Mary J. Blige is finally taking her own advice of No More Drama. With her last big hit dating back to 2002's Dance For Me, Just Fine may well return her to the Top 10 - like Alicia Keys with No One, Mary has struck gold again at last. Anthemic, fresh and with the life-affirming lyric 'I won't change my life, my life's just fine' makes this catchy RnB at its best. 4/5.
