Customer comments on this selection.
Not her best but it's still okay There's been a lot of debate over this album and whether it measures up to "Emancipation"...I agree, Emancipation of Mimi has a fresher sound, more uptempo beats and Mariah seems more in control of her game when one listens to the album.
Before she released E=MC2, Mariah described this album as the "dessert" to Emancipation, which was the "main course"....I can see how that works. This isn't meant to be better than her last album but rather, complement it. The vibe is the same although the second half of the album slows down quite a bit. Mariah also said that this album contains some of her most personal lyrics and if you listen to tracks like "Side Effects", "Bye Bye", "For the Record" and "I Wish You Well", I think you'd agree these four songs have more depth and emotion than some of the others like "Touch My Body", "Cruise Control" and "That Chick".
It's too bad that this album isn't as well received as her previous albums because there were very high expectations for this release. It's a fun album and if you don't want anything too serious, it's worth a listen. Mariah sings much more in her lower register these days which is a relief. She's also far away from throwing in the towel when it comes to her career so let's hope she'll get the message that many of her fans crave a bit more of the "old skool Mariah" and would love to hear that sound on her next album. In the meantime, give E=MC2 a try... Who knows? It may end up growing on you after all.
Disappointed :( I bought this CD hoping that it would be close to as good as her previous (which was fabulous) and was disappointed. There are only about 2 songs that I actually "like" and the rest I could do without. If you like rap then this is probably for you. I like rap to an extent but there seems to be much more of it on this CD. I have all of her CD's and I wish I didn't buy this one.
What happened to Mariah??? I can't believe an artist with such a wonderful voice would allow herself to trivialize it with such ghetto lyrics! I won't soon purchase another of her CDs if she continues in this manner. I cannot justify listening to her singing, "...between you and I...", which is obviously incorrect grammar. She is an iconic personality that youth idolize, so why would she (and producers) subscribe to such low-rent content? Is that what America desires? America, you can have her.
If you feed this cd to your garbage can, it'll throw up... It's too bad that some people actually spend their hard-earned money on superficial "music" like this, when there's so much great music out there with real heart and soul. You know, depth? Ever heard that word? Know the meaning of the word? Music with great arrangements and intelligent lyrics. Ever listened to music like that? No? Didn't think so. That's why you're reading this review...
Mariah Carey another hit:) I love Mariah Carey her voice is incredible:) I love this cd she combines her usual style with a playful song touch my body I can't get that song out of my head.Also another good song is I'll be loving you long time it is a old fashioned disco sound with a modern take on it:). I am a huge fan of MC she is great!:).
