During the 2009 American Music Awards, Drake announced Mary J. Blige as “my mother’s favorite woman in the world.” I thought it was odd, considering he’d made an appearance on Mary’s hit single, “The One” but it probably wasn’t meant as a diss. Although it sounded like one.

I’m sure Mary’s new album cover isn’t meant as a diss either, it’s just plain ole Mary but she appears older, wiser and umm… yeah, Stronger.

Peep the cover art for Mary J. Blige’s “Stronger” below:
