Mary J. Blige is keeping her heart open. The R&B veteran returned on Friday (Oct. 27) with her latest single “Still Believe In Love,” which features an assist from Vado and an accompanying visual shot in Italy.

The freshly released clip sees the pair coasting along the European country’s shoreline and hitting up the beautiful island of Capri. Vado has the honor of setting the tone with his opening verse, spitting, “I still believe in it, fear not/ No strings attached, tongues out with your shell tops/ Like Run-DMC wore, was lovin’ you before, the G4s, yacht parties out on Capri shores.”
 

Then, Blige comes in with her signature vocals, as she sings about never giving up on love despite the turmoil her heart has been through. “I been thinkin’ of the time I wasted/ I been lookin’ in all the wrong places for love/ That really brought me down, yeah, I’m so sick of being sad or lonely/ Until I can find the one I know I need/ I’ll never give up on me,” she sings.
 

The 52-year-old songbird released her last solo album, Good Morning Gorgeous, on February 11, 2023. The offering boasted guest appearances from Cool & Dre, Usher, Fivio Foreign, DJ Khaled, Anderson .Paak, and Dave East. She then circled back in May 2022 to gift fans with a deluxe edition of the LP, adding on four brand new tracks. The updated version tacked on features from Ne-Yo, H.E.R., Jadakiss, Griselda, and Fabolous. Since then, the “Family Affair” crooner released an anniversary edition of A Mary Christmas, her 2013 holiday album. Revisit Mary J. Blige’s deluxe version of Good Morning Gorgeous down below.
