Poor Mariah Carey’s latest album campaign hasn’t been going as well as she’d hoped recently. After her amazing stint on the USA’s favourite sinking-ship, American Idol, was tarred due to a well-publicised frosty relationship with Nicky Minaj, as well as four poorly performing singles (Triumphant (Get ‘Em), Almost Home, The Art of Letting Go and You’re Mine) – it seemed the singer’s upcoming LP would forever be in limbo. Well, that was until today.
The world’s most fabulously decadent vocal supremo has flipped this entire campaign around with a staggeringly magnificent album title and promising tracklist. Blessed with the title ‘Me. I Am Mariah…The Elusive Chanteuse’ (seriously) – Mother Mariah’s latest magnum opus features collaborations with Nas, Mary J. Blige, R. Kelly, Wale and Fabolous – as well as last summer’s iconic jam #Beautiful ft. Miguel.
The full tracklist is as follows:
