Diva Mariah Carey is dusting the dirt of her New Year’s Eve disaster off her shoulder by returning to the studio.
It’s nearing three years since the singer released a body of work, and it appears that may all be changing soon.
Head below for details….
Snapchat king DJ Khaled took to the platform today to share a shot of himself in the studio with Mimi and rapper Travi$ Scott:
Could Khaled have the magic “key” to unlock Mariah’s next commercial emancipation? Time will tell.
That said, while we readily welcome “new” material from Carey in whichever manner it may manifest, we’re hoping she doesn’t over indulge in the Hip-Hop pairings.
Sure she’s a pioneer of the modern singer+ rapper, but it’s not been working for her of late (see: ‘Triumphant’).
Team up’s such as her duet with Miguel on ‘Beautiful’ arguably serve as a better roadmap of where she could (and perhaps should) be driving her sound towards at this stage of her career. A sentiment Carey’s Billboard trajectory supports (‘Beautiful,’ with its #15 peak, is her biggest hit almost a decade).
Just saying.
I’m nervous that we might get another “Thirsty” or “Triumphant.” Cmon Legendriah!
FADED was an incredible radio friendly song laced with hip hop tones
i listen to faded at least 3 times a day.
FA-EH-DED-AHH-WAY-AYY
lov that song. lol
Please no. We just want REAL music from you Mariah. Work with some saaaaaangers who will enhance you musically, not some rappers who don’t know dirt about vocals- it’s so tired. I’d love to see Mariah collab in a duet or write with the following(to name a very select few): Tank, Tyrese, Brandy, Janelle Monae, jimmy Jam and terry lewis(again), Tamar Braxton, TC, Toni Braxton, babyface, Chaka khan…. you know.. vocalists. Hip hop Mariah, for me, is played. It’s cute for a song or two but can we get some authentic, real r&b… a whole album of it. Not this rap crap- it’s tired. It really is
Its funny – her last album was top to bottom R&B with like one or two hip hop collaborations.
Ya’ll slept on it and now are asking for the same thing she gave you!
I can’t with you people!
Don’t talk to me like “y’all this y’all that” because you have know idea what I slept on. Her last album was good, I have it but there was filler and the singles that were being pushed (you’re mine and thirsty) were underwhelming. I don’t classify it as top to bottom r&b at all. There was hip hop, trap, house, adult contemp and gospel throughout the whole album dear.
Cough, I actually love that idea of Mariah collaborating w/ other R&B/pop singers, both old and new for a duets themed album. She could use it to create a different narrative for the next album and reach different generations at the same time.
A Mariah/Toni duet would be a HUGE deal.
This for Khaled’s new album not hers!
For experienced bloggers you would hope you guys would do your research before trying so hard to be shady when it comes to everyone other than Beyonce.
Reeeeeeeeeeeeeead bîtch, reeeeeeeeead!
Watch Sam delete our comments. I will screen shot just in case. KII
Well thank God for that, because her whole rap/hip hop schtick is tired and old. It’s time for her music & sound to mature.
Thank you Miley for putting Sam and company on as usual they’re jumping to conclusions instead of doing any research this is for Khaled’s new album not MC’s.
Whatchu expect He’s a blogger not a journalist??
I guess *shrug*
Sam tried too hard to shade Mariah, aimed and missed bigly. Kii
Um, bigly is not a word. Talk about failed shade lmao…
She’s coming. You haters can exit stage left.
Especially Sam
Mariah has become the new Rihanna of That Prune Juice, the pop diva that Sam can’t resist to shade.
Fück Sams hatin @$$
I’ll pass. I want Christina’s album. Unlinked Mariah, Xtina can still hold s note live!
Lol christina is garbage live. Same Run after run after run, oversang flat notes, screaming and struggle throughout the whole performance. Awful. Mariah sounds bad too but don’t act like Screamtina is doing anything other than pretending she’s still a soprano in 2002. Nobody is checking for her
You all can sit. XTina’s vocals are still on point and sh*ts on Mariah’s (lack of), who’s failed vocals have been a recurring joke for the past decade. Don’t be mad at XTina; it’s not her fault she still takes care of her voice. Blame Mariah for her sh*tty no longer existent voice.
Christina didn’t slay anything accept a pack of throat Lozanges before that struggle of a performance. Nobody is checking for xtina, she peaked early (2002)and has been pretending to be a soprano ever since and for the record Mariah is much more respected as a singer, song writer and legendary vocalist than xtina will ever be which is why mariahs comparisons/arch nemesis were Whitney & Celine’s whilst Xtina’s was Britney Spears and we all see who slayed who outta that generation. Bye girl, and take you flat, sharp, scratchy, warbling repetitious vocals with you. if you want to see a real slay the other night check out a real vocalist, fantasia. Not yellTina.
Most of Mariah´s live intros for Emotions throughout 2016 are better sung than anything xtina can sing these days despite being 10 years younger.
Unfortunately, she can’t sing them live anymore, unlike XTina who just slayed an R&B classic LIVE on TV last week.
She has sung them live again and again throughout 2016. What are you talking about?
I hate to say this, but xtina’s voice is also barely holding on, her vocals are literally tired now.
She needs to keep the retro soul Miguel vibe or go 90s house like Disclosire or Ariana’s “Be Alright”. Nobody wants another rap cameo or the same old Jermanine Dupri sound she’s been pushing since 2003. It was cute for Emancipation but time for a new sound
This is for Khaled’s album not hers…
I hate you Sam …shady for no damn reason
No. I’ll stick to Old School MC. Ion even like today’s music tbh…
Lol, I hate 90% of today’s music, it’s so forgettable and uninspired.
They’re looking like really byitch…..wtf did we get ourselves into?
Damn she looks 70 years old in the face.
But still looks way younger than auntyonce
She just stays on some BS these days! I’m over it! Will you just f****** sing a song, already! Features don’t fix vocals! She’s losing me more and more!
Just retire already mother moo. No one cares about new music for you to lipsync to
Mariah has always remained current by working with the hottest producers and sometimes rappers of the moment. I support her continuing to do so as long as the music is hot and balanced with signature Mariah mid-tempos and ballads.
To be hnoest i liked Triumphant a lot. I know it was not what teh charts wanted and there were too many rappers. Worldwide audiences don´t want that from her. But i enjoyed that songa lot during that summer. Very uplifting and vivid.
To be honest 🙂
Really? I love Mariah but I HATED Triumphant. The arrangement was terrible and the hook was weak.
Triumphant just certificated wood for selling 10 copies!
woooooooow!!! congrats fart-riah.
And? LOL So your faves have never had a single flopping on the charts, right? 🙂 🙂 🙂
But this may not even be for her project. You trip off of everything that she does. Stfu up Sam. You are a nuisance. She’s allowed to work with other artists..
Furthermore, Mariah has sounded quite good recently, minus a few mishaps. So do not bring Christina into anything..
I don’t mind rappers but I wish she would collab with rappers that are more worthy of being on a song with her. I like Travis Scott and all but I feel like she should be working with people who have paid their dues and are on her level. Either way, I’ll be listening.
Still clinging to the youth and the current trend I see.
lol beautiful was Miguel’s highest charting song on bb hot 100. Just saying
Samantha dahhling! I know a surgeon who can help you with that unsightly thing on your face… I’m talking about your nose dahhling!
Hmmmm. I like what Kahled brings out of artists, so we shall see
Please hire better writers!!!
DJ Khalid is a NO!! I guess the good side is I know not to get my hopes up.
This means another ‘hip-hop’ track from mariah 🙂 which means Another flop !!
But wait can she still sing? I think Mariah can’t hit any note perfectly.
Why does she keep embarrassing herself with one flop new song after another. Guess what folks? Any new Mariah song will flop hard. Nobody can stand her anymore!
Good for her
