Together they’ve conjured up some of the biggest hits of the last 20 years, and by the looks of it seem to be cooking up more. Of course, we’re talking about Mariah Carey and hitmaker Jermaine Dupri.
The pair were snapped back in the studio together this weekend, presumably for Carey’s hotly anticipated new studio album.
Despite boasting a long list of smashes, both are at points of their careers where they need to serve up something fresh, new, and resonating. Qualities Carey went in search of in 2009 (to little avail) when she ditched Durpi for The Dream on chart flop ‘Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel’.
In any case, here’s hoping they whip up something more than ‘We Belong Together’ re-hashes ala the bulk of their work on their last substancial outing ‘E=MC2’. For, they are clearly capable of greatness; and oh is the industry in need of that right now.

I love Jermaine Dupri. Hopefully they produce some good songs together….which i’m sure they will.
I love you Mimi!!
Not a big Mariha fan, but I like those 2 together as a musical duo.They have produced some true gems.I hope that he will bring out the best of her this time around and no kidden garden chants please!! 😛 It has to be more sophisticated and I don’t think Mariah is really capable of that, but she has to give it a try. (no shade).It’s good to see her working and being excited.
Can not wait to hear new music from Mariah.
She WILL slay, as usual.
Jermaine and Mariah are just the most dynamic duo when it comes to the studio…..I cannot wait for their new material…They are gonna bring it back 4sure……! GO MIMI

YAYYYY! So happy to see Mariah working with JD agaib, Lets hops for a number omes on this album so she can bear the beatles 😛 x

Every body listen de mr HIT! 100% by Mariah, JD & B.M.C** http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0BGX_2U-dLs
@ASAP at least spell the artists name correctly Mariah and JD always work well together and by the way she cut her hair so the twins wouldn’t choke on it as babies love to naugh on their mothers hair. of course she’s gonna look other she’s running on slep deprivation from taking care of her babies which there’s bound to be at least one song about on the album like there was about his daughter Syesha on Stevie Wonders album Songs In The Key Of Life 35 years ago oh By the Way Mariah was named for the Learner and Loewe song They Called The Wind Mariah and because her mother Patricia thought it would fit nicely on a Marquee sign which it does and so obviously does her daughters name Monroe
@COURNTEY Are you seriously adressing me for a damn typo??Pathetic much?? 😛 Anyway…
I hope you’re not going to adress me for the typo in your name as well…Typos are nothing new, you know, it happens…
FOLLOW ME ON TWITTER @HONEY_DIP11 I FOLLOW BACK!

Wow. She looks ugly and she’s not attractive without her cosmetic supplies. But I like her music anyways.
@DTG, you know you wrong. lol
Anyways, I don’t know MIMI but I can’t shake the feeling of unease I get when I see her in the studio and stuff knowing it’s 2 newborns in her house. Her ass needs to take a break from her career.
She owes it to them kids.
I’m very excited for new music from mariah. AS STATED above, these two are a GOOD combo. The masterpeice that is EMANCIPATION OF MIMI was created at the hands of dupri, so, I hope that the music they are working on is spectacular. I also hope mariah is trying to fix/improve her voice!
YES YES HELLS YESS!!!
JD really knows and understands Mariah’s voice (unlike some producers a-la The-Dream/Tricky) They will blow this Sh*t UP!!! Can’t wait for her 19th #1 .
@ASAP > Have you listened to obscure tracks and b-sides on Mariah’s album? I’m just wondering, because you said she needs to add some depth, and while her singles are usually very light and feel-good jams, the rest of her albums are pretty deep s*** (ie: Petals, Sunflowers for Alfred Roy, Languishing etc.) There’s some great and personal stuff she’s done out there for sure!
I’M ANXIOUS TO HEAR MARIAH’S NEW WORK, HOPE IT ISN’T DISAPPOINTING…….AGAIN
JERMAINE IS JUST GOING TO GIVE THE SONGS THAT QUEEN JANET TURNED DOWN TO MARIAH. T HEY BOTH HAVE THE SOFT TYPE VOICE, SO ITS GOING TO BE EASY FOR JERMAINE TO WORK WITH HER OF COURSE.
#2_has_beens #superflop!!! #EPICFAIL ISNT F****** TAKING SONG WRITING AND MUSIC ARRANGEMENT FROM FANS IN SOME CONTEST TO BOOST UP HER UPCOMING FLOP ALBUM??? YEP, MIMOO HAS NO ORIGINAL IDEAS LEFT. #FLOPPPPP!!!
E=MC2 was a fantastic album, almost better than The Emancipation. Memoirs was so so, hwoever it was still better than most R&B albums release in recent time. Memoirs produced a Top 10 hit and went GOLD, so it’s hardly a flop. Not everyone can pull a Top 10 hit off of an R&B album these days, just ask your fave
@ shesdumb…Why would Mariah take any of janet’s stale leftovers? JD could never make hits with janet the way he has ALWAYS done with Mariah. Thas why janet dumped him. Anyways I’m hoping they cook up something fresh and original. Mariah’s voice is like no other. Over 20years in the game and still making history : )
MIMI going to kill it with another hit song for sure!! JD works wonder with Mariah!! All the haters Shut Up!!! Look and see alrite
This is gonna be amazing………….. She looks good.

She looks amazing, i know they’ll create some smashed.
Memoirs > still outsold just about every r&b album out now and scored a top10 on the hot100 chart. So much for a failure.
@@ shesdumb …. Ummmm Mariah writes and arranges her own material, she doesn’t just leave it to the producer. She does MC originals, whether you like her or not, she’s in control of her music and career (RiRi, Brit, etc. need the producer to bring the ideas and creativity.) That.s not Mariah’s scene, she’s no fabrication.
Who?
Can’t WAIT!!!!
LOVE YOU MARIAH!!!
