The original ‘Queen of Hip Hop Soul’ can never leave the limelight too long without giving the game a little taste of something different. Grammy Award winning singer and songwriter Mary J. Blige is set to release her first holiday album entitled A Mary Christmas. This will be the first collaboration between Mary super-producer and The Verve Music Group Chairman, David Foster.

A Mary Christmas will feature soul-inspired versions of holiday favorites such as “Rudolph The Red-Nosed Reindeer”, “Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas”, “Do You Hear What I Hear” and more. The Queen has also called on a few of her friends to join like  a special collaboration with the legendary Barbara Streisand, Jessie J, and Mark Anthony just to name a few.

The album is available on iTunes and Amazon for Pre-order now, and is slated for release on October 15.  To peep the full track list, hit the jump.
