Estelle Mary J. Blige Collaboration?

– Singer Estelle recently stated how much she would like to work with the Queen of Hip-Hop Soul, Mary J. Blige. Estelle was brought to the mainstream scene by both John Legend and Kanye West, and has seen a large amount of success since that time. When asked about how she felt about Blige, the singer revealed that she was a big fan of her music and stated that she would like to work with Blige in the future.

“I love her! I keep saying that,” Estelle stated. “I’ve been saying that for a year now, so at some point it’s gonna’ happen.”
She is currently working on her third studio album, entitled “All of Me.” She said that she considers Blige to be her inspiration and role model for all of the revolutionary work that Blige had done earlier in her career.
“She’s the reason I sing,” Estelle said. Quite the compliment.

She recently met Blige for the first time in a nightclub in London. It has been reported that she was so moved by the encounter that she actually cried while meeting Blige. She was surprised to find that Blige not only knew who Estelle was, but was actually a fan of her music.

Both singers are known for taking on real life relationship issues in their songs. Many have said that Estelle sings with a style that is similar to that of Blige’s. Her latest admissions only further the rumor that Estelle borrowed a large portion of her style from the famed singer.
