10 Best Duets Ever: No. 3

'I'll Be There for You/You're All I Need to Get By'
--Mary J. Blige and Method Man (1995)

The unlikely pairing of Blige and the Wu-Tang MC pull the classic Motown spirit of Marvin Gaye and Tammi Terrell (not to mention the original chorus from their 'You're All I Need to Get By') into the hip-hop era --and won a Grammy for Best Rap Performance. The key? Subtlety. Unlike the majority of R&B/rap collaborations, this one keeps it smooth and sultry.

Mary J. Blige doesnt deserve any best anything!! She should do her due diligence before she goes around making statements that Elvis was a racist. Prove it bitch! There is one statement in particular someone started way back has proven to be false.

Your the racist bitch Blige

Who came up with that worst list? There are about 4 or 5 songs that are classic duets from the 80's. A majority of them being number 1 hits.
