This is the German cd single that I'm sure most people are buying because it features the 9:17 mix by Thunderpuss of "No More Drama" which is all DRAMA in its remix form. It starts out fast then the hip hop of the original kicks in with Mary J. testifing to her fans of her new found sobriety and then the music picks up one more time and all gospel hell breaks loose. One of her best songs ever as well as one of Thunderpuss' best remix efforts ever! Just gorgeous.

Who knew that Thunderpuss (Chris Cox and Barry Harris) could remix the Queen of Hip Hop Soul and pull it off so spectacularly? Well, they say miracles do happen, and I am proud to report that they did an incredible job! Thunderpuss gives the gritty song a housed-up groove that's unmistakedly their sound, but also nicely compliments Mary J's soulful voice. There's also the dynamite original version produced by Jam and Lewis, but the highlight is definitely Thunderpuss's remix. Bravo to Mary J., Cox, and Harris!

Mary J. Blige, with a hit album, a hot single, and a now-fixed and well life, she's finally got it all together, and this is what "No More Drama" is all about. This single is full of everything for everybody. Although only 4 tracks, these tracks give great entertainment to the listener. The new remixes from Number 1 mixers like Thunderpuss, and new-comers, "Twin Disco", it makes a very cool song, even better.

1. No More Drama (Radio Version) - With a soap opera theme in the beginning, it automactically made me think, "dramatic". Which this is, but very different in a sense. This song reflects on how MJB is going to change her life, and live her own way. I love this. - 5 Stars - A+

2. Twin Disco Experience Remix Edit - A radio edit of a club mix, that transforms this Mary J. Blige classic. Instead of the R&B/Pop tune, it takes the song into a new level, 'Disco'. Which I thought, was dead and buried, but this remix is full of life, and it is kickin! Very cool! It is one of the many remixes that I love. - 5 Stars - A

3. Thunderpuss Anthem Mix - This Remix is VERY aggressive on the beats. Full of synths, and bouncing drums, it makes this song really cool. It's very hard-beat, trance in a way, but still keeping a very cool Thunderpuss remix feel. It's awesome! The best on the Single. - 5 Stars - A++

4. No More Drama (Video) - The video for the song, which feautres Mariah Carey and P. Diddy on TV Screens, singing along with Mary J., on the song. The video has meaning for these two singing, because all of the "drama" they have been through, along with Blige. I love this video! - 5 Stars - A-
