"Rainy Dayz" is a song by Mary J. Blige & Ja Rule, taken from Blige's re-release of her fifth studio album No More Drama. The Song was the final single lifted from No More Drama and was released to coincide with the release of the reissue. The Irv Gotti produced duet became another hit for both, while peaking at #12 on Billboard's Hot 100 and #17 in the UK.
The track was originally written for TLC but the group turned the track down. References to TLC being the group in mind when the track was written can be heard in the lyrics "We’re always livin’ so crazy and sexy and cool" (in reference to their album CrazySexyCool) and "Baby didn’t we tell you before about chasin’ those waterfalls" (in reference to their 1995 single "Waterfalls"). The track also has a reference to the Marvin Gaye song "What's Goin' On."
