When her debut album, What's the 411, hit the streets in 1992, critics and fans alike were mesmerized by its powerful combination of her modern R&B rendition of the classic soul aesthetic; also mixed with an edgy rap sound that glanced off of the pain and grit of Mary J. Blige's childhood.
Called alternately the new Chaka Khan or new Aretha Franklin, Blige had little in common stylistically with either of those artists, but like them, she helped adorn soul music with new textures and flavors that inspired a whole generation of musicians. She would quickly be crowned "the Queen of Hip Hop-Soul"; leaving Aretha the title "Queen of Soul". Blige's title reflecting both her powerful soul vocals, and added Hip Hop flavor.
