I also think if you look at the two singers at her best, Mariah > Whitney. In my humblest of opinions, the only thing Whitney did better was power. Mariah I feel had more subtlety and more sides to her voice :D. And that's not even thinking of whistle register ;).

I agree on the Mariah > Whitney part (in their respective primes). I do feel as if Whitney does better vocal runs and does a better job with melisma though.
 
Mariah Carey Announces Album Release Date

"The New Era Begins," the "#Beautiful" singer posts on Twitter.

Mariah Carey's thirteenth studio album has a release date: the pop superstar revealed that her next full-length is due out on July 23, and Island Def Jam has confirmed the date.

"The New Era Begins.. 7/23 #MC723," the 43-year-old singer posted to her 11 million Twitter followers. The album has been previewed by the Miguel duet "#Beautiful," which bumps up to No. 17 on the Hot 100 chart to be released in full tomorrow on Billboard.com.

Re: What happen to Mariah Carey?

The last I heard Beautiful was #20 on the Hot 100. What's it's position this week?
 
It's up to #17 this week, if it manages to hang around the teens-twenties, it will probably shoot into the top 10 or very close to it when the parent album is released.
 
I hope she leaves all the rappers on the remix and stop with all the whispery singing. I'm gonna have to hear a few snippets before I plunk down my money.

To be fair, I think her voice has gotten better again since she got pregnant/had the twins. She must be taking better care of herself. Her voice for the 00s was pretty rough, overdubbed a million times etc. but it's gotten better again :D.
 
I have been a huge Mariah fan since 1990, when I first heard "Vision of Love". I can't recall anyone that has had a bigger transformation through the years than Mariah. I have all of her music but I'm especially partial to her '90 - '94 songs. She was awesome during that time frame. In '95, she came out with "Fantasy", which shifted her whole image. She started wearing less and less and by the end of the '90s, it was no longer wholesome Mariah Carey who could out sing all of her contemporaries. It was Mariah Carey, the image.

Don't mistake my critique of her as from someone who doesn't like her. I do like her and probably always will but I so miss vintage Mariah. I liked when it was about Mariah's voice and those awesome songs she wrote. Now, it's all about this ridiculous shallow image she portrays. Can't stand her overuse of the words, "festive" and "dahling". And at 43, I would like her to grow up a bit and quit having to dress so slutty. I know they'll be those of you who disagree with me but I fell in love with the original Mariah and that's the one I'll always be most fond of, not the caricature she has become.

Here's my bottom line opinion about Mariah. I think she's one amazingly talented woman. Her voice used to be untouchable. It has waned and weakened through the years but is still amply sufficient to extend her career as a singer. She still owns the whistle register. I think her talent is not just in her singing ability but I think she's immensely talented in music period, and has a phenomenal ear for songwriting and music production. I think all of her quirky ways and projection of the ridiculous image she lives are rooted in insecurity. I think inside she still feels very unsure of herself and is trying way too hard to get people to like her. She's afraid of being imperfect instead of owning her imperfections and accepting that they make her human.

I do love her though and will be buying her new CD in July. I'm always impressed with her musical capabilities. I really wish she were comfortable in her own skin though. Didn't intend for this to be so long. Sorry if I over analysed her. I am a fan and I'm rooting for her continued success. I would love to see her beat the Beatles' record for #1s.
 
I really wish Miguel was the one half naked on a motorbike and dancing in front of a car in the video :(
 
She's announced on her Twitter that her album has been delayed indefinitely. Guess we can wait for the new release date to pop up sometime in the future.
 
Well, I was thinking about posting something about certain somebody lip-syncing at the BET Awards... but I won't. :twisted: ;)
 
Try some of the celebrity gossip blogs. I bet you'll find clips there.

I might convert the footage from DVR, but that's probably not necessary. I mean, you've seen her lip sync before. ;)
 
Was hoping Mariah would walk the talk when she trumpeted that she was going for a sound that she wanted and didnt care much for hits. But after the fiasco that was M.I.A. album, Triumphant the single and the much hyped and much hoped to be a no #1 hit, #beautiful fizzled, it seems Mimi is "cheating" by trying out singles, seeing what formula works and then churns out the album but if it doesnt as such case, then she retreats.

Was really hoping she was going all artistically daring this time but it seems its all talk and she really is desperately hungry for a out and out hit. Sad.

Why does she always put her finger to ears and pretend to be concentrating when she's so obviously lip syncing? Looks so embarrassing IMO.

Sorry, but... Never.

On second thought, it's actually hard to pick. Listening to this and perhaps if you took this young version of Whitney's voice, this is the voice I'd most like to be blessed with between Mariah and Whitney.
