"Working with David Foster is a singers dream. I am fortunate to have had the opportunity to make this soulful classic Christmas album with him. David's music has touched so many lives and I'm so proud of what we've created and I believe my fans will love it as much as I do." says Mary J. Blige. A Mary Christmas features Blige's soulful interpretation of classic holiday tunes including "Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas," and "The Christmas Song." Blige is joined by a number of A-list guests, starting with Barbra Streisand, who duets with Blige on "When You Wish Upon A Star," along with Jessie J on "Do You Hear What I Hear." The Clark Sisters join Blige on "The First Noel" and "Noche de Paz," is a Spanish collaboration with Mark Anthony. Other highlights on the album include "Little Drummer Boy," "My Favorite Things," "This Christmas," "Rudolph The Red-Nosed Reindeer," and Tino Rossi's "Petit Papa Noël." David Foster comments "There's so many things that I find inspiring about Mary, but I guess it always comes back to the fact that she has no limits and no boundaries. She doesn't think of herself as black or white, or yellow or red, or male or female. She just thinks of herself as a singer and she's a great singer."
