It's hard to believe that it's been 9 years since EOM debuted. That album was so organic and seemed like Mariah, the other writers & producers went ALL IN to produce great music, not chase hits. I fear that Mariah is afraid that the album will under-perform so is trying to craft songs that will appeal to the masses rather than doing songs that showcase her artistry. Mariah has nothing to prove to me, I just want to hear some more new music from her.
