This track lets us know that Ms. Blige hasn&#8217;t lost her ability to continually reinvent herself while staying true to her original sound. She uses the beautifully crafted beat to showcase that it&#8217;s time to celebrate! Swag and opulence drip from the lyrics in the song:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Every day like my birthday, bring the cake in\/ Bring the cake in, bring the cake in<br>I feel good, I feel great, man, I feel amazing\/ Man, I feel amazing, man, I feel amazing<br>Every day celebrate, not just on occasion\/ On occasion, not just on occasion<br>I feel good, I feel great, man, I feel amazing\/ Feel amazing, man, I feel amazing<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After listening to this tune you will feel &#8220;Amazing&#8221; and invigorated. Ms. Blige shows us that she will always find a way to have fun, be true to herself, and give us the inspiration to pursue our own happiness:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I feel too wavy, you can&#8217;t save me\/ I meditate on the daily, to keep sane<br>I mean I&#8217;m goin&#8217; out my mind, I&#8217;m goin&#8217; crazy\/ I think it might be my season, I&#8217;m elevated, aye<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Indeed she has elevated! From her spin-off show on Starz; Power Book II: Ghost, playing the character Monet Tejada who is the matriarch of her family, taking over as a Drug Queen Pen while her husband sits behind bars. Even on the show; she is able to convey the strength of women everywhere. As a single mother of three children, attempting to teach and sustain them all while in the seedy underworld of the drug game, Monet is a strong force to be reckoned with.  This show airs on Sundays at 9:00 pm EST on Starz. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We acknowledge and salute Ms. Blige for her perseverance, beauty, and candor throughout the years and are eagerly awaiting what is next from the Queen of Hip Hop Soul.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><sup><sub><span style=\"color:#a5a7a9\" class=\"has-inline-color\">ADVERTISEMENT<\/span><\/sub><\/sup><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"283\" height=\"340\" src=\"https:\/\/rhythmnation.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/GoKbaerco-2.5-X-3.0-Embossed-Vegan-Leather-Messenger-Handbag.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1666\" srcset=\"https:\/\/rhythmnation.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/GoKbaerco-2.5-X-3.0-Embossed-Vegan-Leather-Messenger-Handbag.png 283w, https:\/\/rhythmnation.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/GoKbaerco-2.5-X-3.0-Embossed-Vegan-Leather-Messenger-Handbag-250x300.png 250w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 283px) 100vw, 283px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mary J.
