Solange dropped her new album almost a week ago and the much-deserved praise keeps pouring in.
The singer's A Seat at the Table is a collection of 21 tracks, with each song offering a different perspective and emotion while detailing a journey of Blackness that is "For Us, By Us."
In addition to her project being played on repeat, she also is inspiring others to express their creativity, as well as express their love for Solange in creative ways.
Most recently, one Twitter user couldn't get "Cranes in the Sky" out of their head and decided to create a new video mashup for all to appreciate and enjoy.
Taking the song and pairing it with the dance moves of the legendary Mary J. Blige truly is, to quote Joanne the Scammer, simply iconic.
"Making this video of Mary J. Blige dancing to Solange's 'Cranes in the Sky' [because it] has been in my head since I heard it and I had time today so..." the user captioned the video clip.
The mashup video is simply amazing. So much so that the user decided to share their gift once more, creating an extended version.
Take a look at both mashup videos below and watch your day instantly improve.
