    Mary polishes her sound

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Oct 16, 2006

    Pros: Somewhat polished, but still gritty, radio r&b

    Cons: Pales a bit in comparison to "My Life"

    On her third album, Mary J. Blige steers away from much of the gritty hip hop soul of her first two CDs in favor of slightly polished r&b. In the case of "Share My World," that's not necessarily a bad thing. Here, she hooks up with a ha...ndful of the most popular producers in the business (R.Kelly, Jam and Lewis, Rodney Jerkins, and Babyface) and the results make up a pretty strong release. The Queen of Hip Hop Soul teams up with Queen Bee Lil' Kim on the infectious "I Can Love You," with production from Rodney Jerkins. Jam and Lewis, who are known for their work with Janet, give the sample-heavy but effective numbers "Love Is All We Need," and the excellent "Everything," which samples "You Are Everything" by the Stylistics. R. Kelly's one-groove-fits-all approach to production compliments Blige nicely in the duet "It's On," and we're also treated to the ballad "Missing You," which is unmistakably Babyface. And speaking of Babyface, he's also represented on the disc's closer, "Not Gon' Cry," which already appeared on the soundtrack to "Waiting to Exhale." "Share My World" proves that you can polish your sound without sounding like you're desperate for crossover appeal. Whether she does gritty hip hop or radio-friendly r&b, she's still the Queen of Hip Hop Soul. Read more Less

    BEST REVIEW

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Jan 11, 2001

    I haven't ever been to one of Mary's concerts but she definitley is my favorite artist. All of her albums are explosive and they each pertain to an obstacle i have overcome in my life-time. I feel that her music lifts me every time I am down. This p...articular album is just so deep that any amount of words or compliments could not do this album, all her albums, or even she as an artist and beautiful talented woman, any justice at all. SHE IS THE BOMB!!! Read more Less

    This Quality of this Album

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Nov 29, 2000

    This album is for everyone, not just one specific type of person. You can always find a song that matches a situation that someone may be going through. Although it's one of the older albums it's still very good and I love it.

    MARY J. BLIGE

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Aug 29, 2000

    Mary has been my favorite singer for a long time. She helped me to become a better person and she helped me relize alot. I never met mary in person or seen her in concert or anything so most people say that i'm not her biggest fan but deep in my hea...rt i feel like shes a sister to me in a weird way sometimes it seems like shes there for me because when i'm down i just go to my room and listen to mary and just to listen to her music just brighten me up. I know your like get to the point so i guess what i'm trying to say is mary is a very good singer with a very good heart most celebrity's seem to be just in it for the money but mary is much more. one love mary, out.

    quite good

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Jun 8, 2000

    i am a big fan of mary j. blige. i think this was a good album. lot of a smooth groove like track 2,6,11 but the other tracks doesn't produce the soulful and hip-hop appeal she had in her last two albums. anyway they sounds good, and shows mary's in...credible vocal. nice album! Read more Less
