Mariah Carey is attempting to drum up the hype machine for the release of her new single ‘I Don’t.’

Moments ago, the 46-year-old revealed the cut’s accompanying cover.

Set for its grand unveiling this Friday, the YG assisted track is believed to be the first taste of Mimi’s new album, which’ll be her premiere effort for new label Epic Records.

Can’t say we’re fans of  whatever was being attempted here. At all.

But – as ever – our primary focus is the music. Here’s hoping Mariah delivers with that and stops us fretting over why she’s still pushing this “look at me, I’m sexay” schtick on the cover of her “comeback single.”
