Mary J. Blige

Mary J. Blige is a Grammy-winning recording artist, also known as the “Queen of Hip-Hop Soul.” For her ninth studio album, Stronger With Each Tear, JENCO CREATIVE worked in collaboration with Facet Creative to design the CD packaging artwork.

Mary J. Blige is known for her deep, personal lyrics, and the art direction for this album mirrors that intimacy. Using simple, close-up portraits of the singer, we showed the personal nature of her music, and a high level of contrast in the photography evoked the drama and emotion of the entire album.
