MARY J. BLIGE IS HONORED IN ATLANTA FOR ‘STRENGTH OF A WOMAN DAY”

Mary J. Blige has had another successful year in 2022. Following her appearance at the Super Bowl halftime show, the filming of Season 2 of Power Book III: Raising Kanan, and the release of her Good Morning Beautiful album, MJB received yet another honor this week.

The Strength of a Woman Day, named after her 2017 album, was established in Atlanta to honor the Yonkers native. The award comes ahead of her upcoming Strength of a Woman Festival & Summit in Atlanta over Mother’s Day weekend.

The Queen of Hip Hop Soul was showered with love during a ceremony Thursday night (May 5) in Atlanta, where she was honored by Atlanta councilwoman Keisha Sean Waites and musicians like 2 Chainz were in attendance.

On Saturday night (May 7), Mary J. Blige will sing at the State Farm Arena, and the summit will have sessions aimed at empowering, educating, and elevating women of color.

Ticketmaster still has some tickets available. Throughout the evening, The City Girls, Chaka Khan, Baby Tate, and other performers will perform.

The praises and honors will keep coming throughout the remainder of 2022. Mary J. will also receive the Icon Award at the 2022 Billboard Music Awards, which will air on NBC on May 15 and will be hosted by her mentor Diddy.
