My Life (1994)

By Mary J. Blige

A soul-searching R&B record built on hip hop production, written in the middle of depression, addiction and an abusive relationship. Blige, who broke through with What's the 411?, wrote lyrics for fourteen tracks, with Sean "Puffy" Combs producing. It hit number seven on the Billboard 200 and entered the National Recording Registry in 2025.
