SONG OF THE WEEK: Mary J. Blige

Mary J. Blige's new single "We Ride (I See the Future)" (Geffen) opens with the interesting disclaimer: "Everybody asking why Mary ain't mad no more/Seems like a question that I've already answered, like, too many times before." But the answers have been so good - the smashes "No More Drama" and "Be Without You" - that Mary should keep going. "We Ride," one of four new songs from her "Reflections: A Retrospective" album out Tuesday, features the same pretty piano tinkling of "Be Without You" and yet another grand vocal workout. Happiness apparently suits Blige quite well, emotionally and artistically.
