"Hurt Again" is a song by Mary J. Blige, that was intended to be the third single from her eighth studio album[2], Growing Pains, but was canceled in favor of "Stay Down". The song was produced by Dre & Vidal, and co-written by Dr. Dre collaborator Brian Sledge.[3] The song was released on March 4, 2008 for airplay, but never was given an official release as it was canceled as a single.[citation needed]
Blige and her band also performed this song in the One Life to Live soap opera, in February 2008[4]. She said about this appearance:
It’s absolutely amazing to be integrated into a soap opera I’ve watched since I was a little girl. I performed on the show two years ago and had a ball, and I am beyond thrilled to be welcomed back again.[5]
