This week brings with it the release of Mariah Carey‘s 15th studio album ‘Caution.’
Long-in-the-making, the set is the diva’s first body of work since 2014’s ‘Me. I Am…Mariah. The Elusive Chanteuse’ and she’s lined up a potent list of platforms to launch the project.
Dive below for details…
It was recently revealed that Mimi will be taking to stage on ‘The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon’ with Ty Dolla $ign this Friday (November 16th) – the day ‘Caution’ is unleashed. The duo will be performing their scorching duet ‘The Distance.’
Moments ago, it was also announced that the vocalist will be bringing her five-octave range to ‘Good Morning America’ on Monday November 19th for another live showing.
Both spots comes on the heels of the news that the songbird will be erecting ‘The Mariah Experience’ exhibit in New York City. As reported, she’ll launch the immersive space on ‘Caution’s day of arrival and it’ll run through to December 4th.
She’ll also be embarking on the ‘Caution World Tour,’ with ticket-bundle packages in place for the US dates announced.
Suffice to say, Ms. Carey and her new team over at Roc Nation have mapped out a commendable launching effort for her latest collection (which also features Blood Orange, Slick Rick, and Gunna). A healthy mix of the traditional, the experiential, and the tour focal.
And then, of course, there’s the hurricane of Christmas to come.
It’s Mariah season!
Hopefully her fans really show up & show out for her latest album!!
Even though none of this material is anything more than average(at very best) I’m definitely going to support her. She has given me so many great musical moments and gotten me through some tough periods in life so she’s allowed to have a album I don’t like. I’ll be at the signing/Mariah Experience and i’ll Buy the Album for my little sister for Xmas (stream for myself). Merry Christmas 1 and 2 will be on repeat as of next week.
GTFO is a true GEM ! Truthfully, she hasn’t had a bad album ! She’s had low selling BUT never a true bad album in her catalog. Who keeps her music current since 1990.
I agree but this album seems to be bad. I’ve not heard one stellar track yet although I do like GTFO for what it’s worth.
I disagree all 4 released tracks are good and i have them on repeat. These are wayyyy better than what the newer artist are serving. At least i can understand what she is saying and the message of the songs #substance
@alfreda these are not better or more substance filled than the current state of popular music amthey assimilate right within the climate. Further more there are plenty of younger artists releasing quality music lightyears better than these: HER, SZA, Ariana Grande and Tori Kelly are just 4 off the top of my head and their live performances are all amazing.
And that’s what’s amazing about music ! Everything ain’t for everybody ! Everyone has their own interpretation. I love the music Mariah is currently giving the world. Because she writes her songs. I can care less about the younger artist except for SZA, HER, and Summer Walker who are true artist.
@Alfreda I think Mariah would experience musical success and variance if she’d collaborate with a SZA or HER. It’d truly inspire her to make something different than she’s ever done before. I don’t hate her new stuff but there’s only so much a hip hop producer and a rapper can offer you as a singer, you need people equally as talented as younsurrounding you to bounce off of and I feel like a lot of times Mariah doesn’t do that. She tries to do it by herself and that’s when stuff starts to sound the same as her previous efforts or to what’s already out.
What MORE success does she NEED ! She’s been doing this since 1990 ! She has awards, diamond albums, and 17 #1’s ! Most of the “new” artist today will NEVER surpass or come close to what she’s accomplished. So for me she can forever make or do whatever she wants music wise until she’s done.
When I say success I’m not speaking in a commercial form I’m speaking in the success of new, fresh music. Kind of like when “beautiful” came out and she worked with Miguel and it was a collab with a neo-soul non-mainstream/pop singer and it really has been her most different and quality release in a very, very long while (not to mention her last chatting single). She doesn’t need anymore commercial success but challenging herself musically would be something REAL fans would like. I don’t need to have her at number 1 or winning Grammys but i’d Like to still be wowed by her music. That’s the success I’m talking about and the success she’s not having with her current music- nothing is WOW.
ARIANA GRANDE releases QUALITY???? LMAO Bish you are trying to shade Mariah somehow but are praising mediocre new music that will be forgotten in 3 years? Those 3 artist you mentioned are irrelevant. Vocal production wise the 4 new songs from Mariah keep being better than all these young irrelevant artists (if you had mentioned Adele, Lana or something at least…).
Not true, she’s had 3 bad albums. Rainbow, Charm bracelet, and E=MC2 were all horrific.
@SMH Charmbracelet and Rainbow were wonderful eras. Both those albums are great and Rainbow contains some of her best work (Bliss, heartbreaker/remix, crybaby, thank god I found you remix).
I don’t think this album is going to do well. Her YouTube video views and stream numbers have been low. I think it will do 25-27k
But she’ll do a lot more in pure sales. Plus she didn’t send anything to the other major radio formats. She is doing new things promo wise which is great.
I just got to support her as she that LEGEND ❤
QUEEN BUTTERFLY MIMI ??
I heard A No No on the radio last week so hopefully they push that as a single instead of The Distance. The YouTube numbers for A No No are already approaching 1 million last I checked.
These songs are very good.
The album is gonna flop, but who cares when she’s the Queen of Christmas. AIWFCIY will chart again and she’ll be everywhere spreading Holiday Fear with her barely-there vocals.
What MORE success does she NEED ! She’s been doing this since 1990 ! She has awards, diamond albums, and 17 #1’s ! Most of the “new” artist today will NEVER surpass or come close to what she’s accomplished. So for me she can forever make or do whatever she wants music wise until she’s done.
I heard the new single “With You” on our city’s MAJOR radio station this weekend and tripped OUT!!! Remember back in the day when the “Rainbow” album was considered a “bad” album, vocally … LOL wow, things have really changed.
That just goes to show you that there is NO SUCH THING as a “bad” Mariah album. She really gives her all, whether it’s in the writing, production, vocals, or melodies. Even some of her easiest songs to sing have KILLER melodies (“The Distance”), and that is why she will ALWAYS be relevant in this crazy, unstable music business. She has mastered it, and I love her for it.
PS…I already have my tickets to the tour. About to start booking my hotel next!
There’s a big difference between Rainbow and This. Heartbreaker, Bliss and Crybaby are some of Mariah’s greatest works of art and timeless with stellar, too ofbthe line vocals. Bliss and Crybaby alone are 2 songs unlike any songs and vocals in Mariah’s entire catalogue. I think rainbow was considered bad vocals because live she was very weak during that era and it was showing that her voice was not so great live anymore. The studio vocals were still on point, for the most part.
Sorry but no. Rainbow, Charmbracelet and E=MC2 are BAD albums. HORRIBLE is a better word actually.
@SMH you stan Nicki Mina, you’re not one to gage good music..
As Ari put it,
Thank u, Next!
No one cares for this old h** anymore she’s a legend but making mediocre moves to her legendary career she’s acting like the whisper of Janet’s vocals. Girl take the pills and swallow it cause no no no no no ones buying that crap of an album.
Stop trying to 20 and be your age release what the fans actually want the diva ballads
I can’t with these Dicki Gonorrheaj stans always spreading hate! The nerve of you talking like that when your idol’s whole career is based on twerking and showing fake tits to sell records.
At 35 years old Mariah released The Emancipation of Mimi which was a massive success and birthed the Song of the Decade (WBT). Meanwhile at 35, only 8 years since her debut album, Tricki Garbaj, the self-proclaimed Queen of Rap hasn’t even achieved a #1 song and is already desperately struggling for relevancy. I swear y’all Garbz are the bedbugs of the internet. The most disrespectful, disgusting fanbase anyone would ever come across. Y’all are a reflection of your idol’s own true colors.
Mariah is a certified legend, has changed the landscape of contemporary music, inspired a generation of singers, has achieved unparalleled commercial success and broke countless records, and is a true musician who plays the piano and guitar, writes her own lyrics & melodies and produces/co-produces all the beats, synths, 808s and vocals arrangements in almost all of her songs. Nicki doesn’t even have an ounce of Mariah’s talent so have several seats, buy and stream Q**** so it can have atleast half the success of Invasion of Privacy, go to charm school, find true friends in real life and do something meaningful instead of wasting your whole day harassing people on the internet.
All of Mariah’s excellent albums debut in Billboards Top 10 and this new album will be no different. Younger folks may not understand but MC makes music for adults. For those that love R&B music this new record is a special occasion, & a cause for celebration! She is one of the greats, and anyone who doesn’t get it GTFO!!
I am so excited for Mariah’s Caution Album and to see her at the Caution World Tour in Washington DC March 2019 its going to be one of her best Albums ! I love MC so much the Promo is on point, you cant fault it Go Mimi !Xx ???⚠️❕???? xx
