Mary J. Blige frowns in her 'Why' video.

Mary J. Blige lives the fabulous yet lonely life in her new video, ‘Why’. Featuring Rick Ross, the visual was shot to support the Queen of Hip-Hop/Soul’s ‘My Life II: The Journey Continues (Act 1)’ album.

‘My Life II’ has thus far been certified gold by the RIAA with sales nearing 600K copies in the US. However, the record has yet to yield a top 10 single on the Billboard Hot 100 – a feat that Blige has not achieved as a lead artist since ‘Be Without You’ from ‘The Breakthrough’ album peaked at #3 in 2005.

Watch Blige’s ‘Why’ video below:

It is quite difficult to understand the relation between this video and the actual song ‘Why’. Honestly, the clip is just a regular Hip-Hop/R&B clip that showcases wealth without any real depth. Still, as this era of Blige’s career draws to a close, it should suffice, especially since the chances of ‘Why’ being a major success on the Hot 100 were quite slim, regardless of its accompanying visual.
