Quavo, DJ Khaled, Missy Elliott and Mary J. Blige Connect for New Song “Glow Up”
Mary J. Blige is officially back in action with a new album, Strength of a Woman, and Quavo, DJ Khaled and Missy Elliott join her on "Glow Up," one of the strongest tracks on the project.
The new song sees the R&B legend flex on all of her exes, especially those foolish enough to think she's not going to level up. The track features what sounds like a flute and an interesting mix of all the collaborators' vocals. Quavo once again proves he's far from one-dimensional, as he uses his surprisingly smooth, Auto-Tune-laced vocals to the background of Mary J's hook.
On his verse, Quavo raps, "You know what I know (you know what I know)/That I got that wide load (cash, racks)/I can't catch no feelings though (no, no feelings)/They told me 'bout you before (ayy, they told me)/But you still tryna make your move (still)/Still tryna get in Bruges (still)/She think 'cause I bought her shoes (ay, Gucci)/That's gonna make the news (that's gonna make the blogs)."
For their part, Khaled and Missy chime in with confident ad-libs throughout different points of the song, while Mary J. just let's her legendary vocals do the work.
