Boy, does it seem like some of the media invited to last night’s Def Jam music showcase didn’t care much for the ‘no recording’ rule which are always in place at such events. After the online surfacing of the new videos by Kanye West and The-Dream which premiered at the event, we now have a snippet of the new Mariah Carey single, which was also played.
Titled ‘Hate U’, the ballad was produced by Tricky Stewart and written by The-Dream. Judging from the small snippet, the track sounds pretty decent, head and shoulders above Mariah’s last outing with the production pair on ‘Touch My Body’.
LA Reid confirmed at the event what That Grape Juice been reporting for some time now, that Mariah’s new LP ‘Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel’ (LMAO, this still cracks me up!) will be out in late August.
Hit or Miss?
