#271 Mary J. Blige, 'What’s the 411?' (1992)

Debut album by the 21-year-old Mary J. Blige took elements of Hip Hop, Soul, RnB and New Jack Swing and fused them altogether to create a new sound, one that would become synonymous with the early to mid 90’s. Thanks to this, Blige came to be known as the Queen Of Hip Hop Soul.
