The Queen of Hip-Hop Soul herself Mary J. Blige, continues to make her promotional rounds to push her current #1 single “Thick Of It” and detail her upcoming album. Her latest appearance was on Good Morning America where she not only tore the house down with a soul-stirring performance of her new single, but she also sat down for a brief interview to discuss her impending divorce that has been making headlines for the last several weeks.

If the success and sound of Mary J. Blige’s latest single “Thick Of It” is any indication to what fans can expect from her upcoming album, then it’s safe to say that the classic Mary we all know and love is back in top-tier form. Stopping by Good Morning America for an amazing performance, she capped off her appearance with an interview with Robin Roberts where she opened up about her divorce from soon-to-be ex-husband Kendu Issacs. She was equal parts raw, honest and eloquent in her responses regarding the breakdown of her marriage. Love B. Scott has the detailed take on the interview and more.

Via Love B. Scott:

Mary J. Blige appeared on Wednesday’s episode of “Good Morning America” and opened up to Robin Roberts and viewers about her pending divorce from husband Kendu Isaacs. As for what exactly happened in their marriage, she didn’t shy away from letting us know she simply wasn’t being respected.

[Mary J. Blige]: “The breaking point was when I kept asking over and over and over again for respect and to be respected and it just seems like I was beating a dead horse and it seems like I was talking to a wall,” said Mary. “I just wasn’t getting it back. If I can’t get respect in the relationship, then I have to move on to save myself. That was the point where I’m like, I’m done. I just can’t do it anymore.”
