If Camp Mariah Carey opts to go ahead with the star’s May 6th album release date, the only fate the LP can be sure to face is…disaster.

A little dramatic? Perhaps. However, after watching its latest first single slip and slide out of iTunes Top 400 after a week of release, her team is now faced with the mammoth task of convincing the general public to purchase the Def Jam-backed piece.
