Songs for Life

Tamika Mallory

<p>In her interview with Ebro Darden, Mallory shares the music that shaped her life—from learning what love means from Bell Biv DeVoe during her youth and motivating herself to Mary J. Blige before a big rally to listening to The Commodores when times are tough.</p>

<p>Music might be something that can be shared among tens of thousands of fellow fans, but that doesn’t mean it can’t be a deeply personal experience. In Apple Music’s Songs for Life series, stars from all walks of life talk about the tunes that soundtracked the most important and indelible moments in their lives and careers—moments that are inextricably connected to memories both joyous and difficult, that are as much a part of who they are as those songs themselves.</p>
