Rick Ross has recruited Mariah Carey for what is the rapper’s most mainstream effort in years.
The pair, who previously teamed up for Mimi’s not-so ‘Triumphant’ single in 2012, this time serve up ‘Can’t Say No.’
Lifted from Rozay’s new album ‘Black Market’ (which hit retail today), the sing-along-song samples Carey’s classic ‘Can’t Let Go’ and sees her belt out the lyrics with her 2015 voice (which, admittedly, still packs a decent enough punch).
Listen to the diva and bawse on their latest duet below…
Cute.
Though not earth-shattering, this is a well-crafted hit.
Boasting a strong melody, it captures the same simplicity and infectiousness that made rap-sung smashes such as ‘Dilemma’ and ‘My Boo’ as universally successful as they were.
After so many ill-fated attempts in recent years, ‘Can’t Say No’ reminds that Mariah can still succeed sonically with the “singer+rapper” movement she popularised in the 90s.

I love it. Fire!
I absolutely love it. Just purchased from iTunes. #slayriah
Finally a collaboration where these two got it right and also shoutout to MC for capitalizing on her amazing catalogue and bagging another writing credit along the way as well. Take about boss MC is definitely that.
Cling to the past. lol
This is one of my absolutely favourite songs from Mariah.
I like it.
Can we talk about the song bird supreme’s epic quote..

That meme will go down in history. I swear! The one with Aretha putting her purse/bag down and adjusting the bottom of her shirt before she walks off is also legendary.
It’s interesting. Possibly a top 20 in its target demographic’s chart.
This is one of my all time favorite Mariah tracks but this song sucks, voice sounds horrible, just gonna stick with the old original; this song was f****** horrible.
It won’t chart
This is definitely her best, among her most recent efforts.
IDK I have mixed feelings… I love the original and to hear this rendition is just a sad reminder of her vocal decline…IDK
LOL Hurts Sam so much that Mariah is great and that he has to admit it 🙂
correction, she used to be great..
oop! I disagree, she was always just ok.
???
Love it, Can’t Let Go is one of my favorite songs by Mariah. It deserves more recognition and it damn sure deserved to go #1 and it was on its way until tommy pulled it.
Fat ugly witch just needs to go away! Please do us a great favor and retire!
i think Mariah sounds wonderful! Her addition to the song makes it way better than what it would have been without her.
Mariah sounds amazing on this track. She couldn’t do too much because it is a feature. The vocals sound very similar to the first version. Great song!.
Sure she sound ok, she’s in the studio. The greatest studio vocalist of all time.
pretty cool actually
Nice track.
Rick Ross recycles lyrics a lot I’ve noticed but vibe is nice. Mariah sounds lovely but this song is the lesser to this classic below

I Love It!.. On repeat since I purchased it…She breathed a new life into that already classic song
I actually rather like this. She sounds great and I love a good sing/rap mash up, and I always will.
