<p>Roommates, just in time to kick off Black Music Month, Amazon has just dropped the first look at the upcoming documentary about the making of <a href="https://dev.theshaderoom.com/mary-j-blige-says-shes-not-interested-in-participating-in-a-verzuz-battle-i-dont-wanna-do-it/">Mary J. Blige</a>’s iconic second album “My Life.” While Mary J. Blige initially broke the news of the documentary during her recent Walk Of Fame honor at NYC’s Apollo Theater, Amazon officially released the trailer for the “My Life” documentary—which many consider to be Mary’s best work.</p>
<p>Mary J. Blige is a <a href="https://www.etonline.com/mary-j-blige-reflects-on-her-inspiring-my-life-album-in-trailer-for-new-documentary-166686">living legend</a> that has been consistently making hits for 30 years, however one of her projects continues to stand out from the rest and now it’s getting its own official documentary. On June 25<sup>th</sup>, Amazon Prime video will release a documentary chronicling the making of Mary’s classic album “My Life”—and by the looks of the trailer, fans are definitely in for a treat.</p>
<p>According to the official synopsis of the film, Mary “reveals the demons and blessings that inspired the record and propelled her from the soul-crushing world of New York’s housing projects to international stardom.” The documentary will also follow her celebrating the album’s 25<sup>th</sup> anniversary back in 2019 by performing the entire album live for the very first time.</p>
