Muni Long's Revenge is a fearlessly real but empowering record from an artist who’s unafraid to wear her heart on her sleeve and let you know exactly how she feels. Guests include GloRilla.
Grammy-winning R&B sensation Muni Long has unleashed Revenge, her second studio album, and it’s already being hailed as a strong contender for R&B Album of the Year. Riding high on the success of her global hit “Made For Me,” Long uses the album to take listeners on a personal journey through heartbreak, healing, and self-discovery. “The record is definitely my story,” Long shares. “It’s so much deeper than simply writing songs. It’s therapeutic for me to get all my thoughts out. I’ve been working towards this moment for 17 years. I’m stronger than I’ve ever been, and I’m focused on healing and leaving brightness wherever I go.”
Known for her confessional style, Long cements herself as the superwoman of R&B, effortlessly balancing vulnerability and empowerment. On Revenge, she blends bedroom-quaking beats with cathartic anthems, creating an album that is raw, real, and relentlessly captivating. Tracks like “Make Me Forget” - which went to No. 1 on R&B Radio - showcase her ability to mix pain and power, while fan-favorite “Made For Me” highlights her knack for coming up with soulful earworms. “I’m trying to solidify myself as an R&B giant,” Long declares. “When you hear Revenge, I want you to feel like I did when I heard Maxwell’s first album. I hope my music can be a little bit of medicine. I promise you’ll feel better.”
The album features production from R&B legends Jermaine Dupri, Bryan-Michael Cox, and Jordan XL, who bring a classic yet modern sound to the tracks. Outside of the album, the remix of “Made For Me” featuring Mariah Carey adds even more to Long’s position as a powerhouse in the genre and has already racked up millions of streams. Earlier this year, Long delivered a show-stopping performance on the season finale of NBC’s The Voice, where she recharged “Made For Me” and reminded audiences of her remarkable vocal range. The single cracked the Top 20 of the Billboard Hot 100 and dominated the R&B charts for weeks, showing off her staying power.
Whether she’s delivering slow-burning ballads or empowering anthems, Muni Long’s Revenge is a triumph. It shows her growth as an artist and her ability to turn pain into power, proving that sometimes, revenge truly is best served in song.
