Much ado has been made about the cover for Mariah Carey‘s new album ‘#1 To Infinity,’ but we’re loving it here at That Grape Juice.
It’s unsurprising, then, that we’re equally as enamoured with the additional shots from the Wayne Maser photoshoot.
The newly unwrapped snaps arrive in support of the Mimi LP as well as its sole single ‘Infinity,’ which arrives (along with its Brett Ratner directed video) on April 27th.
According to Showbiz 411, the track is likely to set tongues wagging. Roger Friedman said of the song:
“Infinity” is at the same time old school R&B and right on the money for NOW. L.A. Reid has encouraged her back into the department of lyrics that mean something to her. Not only does “Infinity” tell a story– which most people will infer is about her and Nick–the song also has a great melody, a real hook you won’t forget, and Mariah hitting a very high, sustained note that is her and her alone.
The gist of the song is that “Infinity isn’t forever” and she wants the man who is the subject of the song out of her home and her life this minute. It’s a very witty lyric written by Mariah with a team including writer-producer Eric Hudson.

Proponents of Pop purveyor Janet Jackson took to the net to express their disappointment when they learned the singer wasn’t to be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
For, after learning that artists could only be considered for induction 25 years after their debut, her fans had hoped her success in the early 90s would have seen her celebrated by its committee and secure an invitation.
Alas, this didn’t happen following the committee’s meeting in New York City last September, seeing its members leave Janet out in the cold and welcome eight new acts who will officially become members of the exclusive club on April 18th.
Now, days before the event takes place in Cleveland, Jann Wenner (chairman of the Rock Hall Foundation and founder, editor and publisher of Rolling Stone) has been quizzed on the matter by Billboard.
Why his answer may spell trouble for the likes of Beyonce, Rihanna and Lady GaGa in the future?
