Mariah Carey Set To Release Christmas Album In November?

Published: Thursday 19th Aug 2010 by Trent

Santa Claus might be coming to town a bit early this year because Mariah Carey is releasing a new Christmas album. The diva is reportedly preparing to drop a new collection of material which will include 6 new tracks, cover songs and a new remix of her classic ‘All I Want For Christmas Is You’. The LP will hit stores on November 2nd.

Carey’s last Christmas album was released on November 1st 1994 and has sold over 12 million copies worldwide, making it one of the best-selling Holiday records every released.  {Source}

Whether this will prove to be a profitable venture is debatable but one this is certain: people just want to hear Carey sing again. With her last 2 albums comprising generally basic sing-along tracks that failed to showcase her incredible range and skill, Carey’s critics and fans are eager to hear her sing like she did on her earlier releases.

However, with Randy Jackson’s involvement on the LP and Carey herself repeatedly speaking about working with live musicians for her new material, I sense that this record will feature the long-awaited return of the vocalist that people have been missing.

    i love mc but it wont sell that well.. in the 1990’s records in general sold a lot easily because there wasnt limewire and other ways to get albums. she should just wait take a break and comeback in 2011

  4. EXPOSED August 19, 2010

    RANDY JACKSON? THAT AMERICAN IDOL HAS-BEEN-WHO-CANT-REALLY-PLAY-ELECTRIC-GUITAR BUFFOON?? YEA, RIGHT… LIKE THAT WILL INSPIRE THE B**** TO STOP LIP SYNCING AND FEATURE THE “LONG AWAITED VOCALIST” LIKE HER LAST ALBUM, “MEMOIRS OF A FORGOTTEN ANGEL”. KEEP IN MIND, X MAS ALBUMS DOES WORSE THAN REGULAR CD’S. EXPECT HER FLOPPED SALES NUMBERS FROM ANGEL LESS A HALF!!

    EPIC FAIL!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  8. gfssd August 19, 2010

    shes gonna sell about 150k in her 1st week and as christmas approaches her sales will rocket, chrismas albums always do well, look at josh grobans noel and andrea boccoli’s my christmas, and bcos mariah is a common face at xmas time (due to all i want for christmas is you) so she will definately sell over 2,000,000 in the us alone by the end of the year.

    FACT

  9. XtinaArmy August 19, 2010

    2,000,000 in the us alone by the end of the year? lmao! b**** won’t sell over 200,000 copies totally

  10. gfssd August 19, 2010

    @xtinaarmy

    she definately will, and this wil be a great platform for a new album, all she needs to do is make the album after the xmas one good and she will once again solidify her status as a legend

  11. FUTURESTARdelux August 19, 2010

    AND SUSAN BOYLE HAS AN XMAS ALBUM OUT AT THE SAME TIME.

  12. FUTURESTARdelux August 19, 2010

    OH SO NOW WE KNOW WHY TRENT POSTED THAT DUBIOUS ARTICLE ON XTINA’S 150K SHOWS FROM AN “ANONYMOUS” SOURCE SO THAT HE COULD MAKE OUT THAT MARIAH IS DOING THAT MUCH BETTER….

    TRENT WHY NOT LET OLD ARGUMENTS DIE INSTEAD OF DRAGGING THEM UP?

    MARIAH IS A TRUE LEGEND BUT HER LAST 2 ALBUMS (AND POSSIBLY THIS) HAVE FLOPPED YET YOU HATE ON XTINA? WHY?

    I HOPE IT’S A SUCCESS FOR MARIAH, I HAVE HER OLD XMAS ALBUM, GREATEST HITS & MEMOIRS.

  13. Brooklyn_JanetFam August 19, 2010

This cd will flop just like her last 2 cds! Nobody checking for Manriah and her ashy ass voice no more! She needs to just enjoy her legacy and take a queue from Janet. Leona Lewis is hear now people dont need Mariah and her click track using fake singing live ass. Lol @ Trent if you wanna help Mariah tell her to stop singing about Candy bling, McDonalds fries and ring pops and s*** and this is the b******* you all claim is “DEEP” lmfaooooooooo what a joke

    @BROOKLYN_JANETFAM

    I thought it might be to do with the weight loss but if you look at the other photos from that photoshoot, it seems that it’s just badly applied fake tan! LOL

  20. Soulful Roses August 19, 2010

    Yeah she’s the queen at this, but that s*** is gonna flop all over the charts.

  24. Candy Bling August 19, 2010

    Queen of Xmas is coming back! I cannot wait to watch her shut the haters up, I will enjoy every moment.

  25. Tha Phoenix August 19, 2010

    Can’t wait. I’m really excited.

    And she’s working with some great people. PLUS this isn’t the only record we can expect from MC – she keeps hinting that she’s recording an actual LP.

    And all you doubters. LMAO. When Mariah comes back, you’re all going to eat your words again just like you did in TEOM era.

    😀

  26. NUNYA August 19, 2010

  27. JAYLA August 19, 2010

  28. ~TeAM WeeZY~ August 19, 2010

    I love you Mariah, but NO! Just NO! Ugh!

  29. TheYoungLion August 19, 2010

    B**** is done just like Trent after I f***** him

  30. MUSIC LOVER August 19, 2010

    I love Mariah, but IDK how well this album will be. I hope she brings it especially with Susan Boyle releasing a Christmas album as well.

  31. FUSION August 19, 2010

    Yay Mimi – can’t wait to have some real singin, some real music, and the real, one and only true Diva left!

  32. TheBaddestBitch August 20, 2010

    I love Mariah but it’s useless to do that album because she’lle never top the 1994 release.

    2 christmas albums in a discography is just too much and unnecessary.

    Still love u Mimi

  33. GrapeJuice sucks August 20, 2010

    LOL @ B**** is done just like Trent after I f***** him

    i think sam and trent take turns being the bottom

  34. Nintra August 20, 2010

    I just find that Patty gif hilarious.

  35. iLoveXTIna August 20, 2010

    This does not sound interesting at all *yawn*

  36. MCISTHEBEST August 20, 2010

    CANT WAIT TO HEAR IT… THE QUEEN IS COMING BACK FOR CHRISTMAS!!!!

  37. Kevin August 20, 2010

    It’s pretty obvoius she’s doing a Christmas album to just gtfo of IDJ. it’s alot easier for a xmas album to flop, as opposed to a regular LP.

  38. Jasmine August 20, 2010

    Why only 6 new tracks? If she recorded 4 more it would be a new album instead of another re-release of her christmas album.

  39. Robier August 20, 2010

    Mariah needs to address the vocal issues. Hoarseness and raspy in the speaking and singing voice is not good.

  40. RosaRubbel August 20, 2010

    I am a big Mariah fan, but why is does she release a christmas record? Mariah has already done a Xmas classic.

  41. FreshUrbanEnt August 20, 2010

    INTERESTING TO SEE IF SHE CAN TOP HER LAST ONE

  43. OLW August 21, 2010

    … sg=he just have to lose some ( a lot of) pounds, get herself together. and sing on a real album… not a christmas ish

  44. drew August 23, 2010

    well i am excited, i dont think that a christmas album is the best choice though? i mean she had a REALY good xmas album last time but now ppl r gunna expect her to live up to the ratings of it. i love mariah and i will support her desisions and all but… a christmas album might be a mistake. i dont wanna see mariah go down again, the only thing i see is after she does go down (if she does) then shell have another comeback like the emancipation or sumthin. this just isnt a good time for a christmas album. but wat do i know, i could b completely wrong! love u mariah
    LAMBS 4 LIFE

    I love Mariah, but I am beginning to go back to her old records more so often just to relive those good songs with meaning. She has good recent songs, HOWEVER, her recent music is all over the place. She lost her touch. As for the new Christmas Album, I’m disappointed. She shouldn’t go that route period. She should find a new sound, step out of her comfort zone with all these slow jams we been hearing for quite some time and burst into the scene with a new Mariah. She needs to give her fans that “WOW” factor, and she’s lost her touch. I truly love Mariah and I am a devoted fan, but stratgetically speaking if she wants to stay on top, Re-Invention wouldn’t hurt.
