I liked the "Emancipation of Mimi" better
It's no secret that Mariah has God-given, heaven sent ,angelic talent that most of us 9 to 5'ers could only imagine having! She's a musical and lyrical genius, however on her latest effort, E=MC2, I was not as impressed as her last album, The Emancipation of Mimi. On E=MC2, most of the tracks are a testament to the Mariah Carey we all know, hip hop/reggae sounding joints with Damian Marley, Young Jeezy and the overused, yet underrated hip hop/rap mega collaborator, T-Pain. However, it's very rare that when Mariah drops a CD I only like 2 songs on the whole entire album. Unfortunately, my most favored songs are the current hit single, "Touch My Body" and the very melodic, yet catchy, "I'll be Loving You Long Time". This is only my opinion, however, I pre-ordered her CD and was disappointed in it's delivery of the style, lyrical magic, and super talent that Mariah is known for bringing to every CD she produces. It's no doubt the CD will go platinum (if it hasn't already) because she's Mariah - a legend of pure talent and true wisdom of her craft, however E=MC2 does not make the cut for me personally. I am still wondering why for her album release, they had the cover of her album lit up on the Empire State Building?! It would have made more sense to give the previous album that kind of attention, since the skill, time and genuine effort truly went into the "Emancipation of Mimi", instead of E=MC2. Again, this is my opinion - listen for yourself - you might get a different vibe - as for me, I'm still wondering what the E is supposed to equal on her latest release E=MC2 - I wish it stood for "Excellence" but I wouldn't say so for this release.

Holy smoke!!
This album is off the flibbity charts awesome. How? Let me tell you. First the title. When I think of physics and formulas, I think of Mariah Carey. The fact her name has a lot of the same letters as Marie Curie is no coincidence. Mariah is really smart. The songs are cool and talk about love and her body. Those are two things I could put together. I think Mariahs breasts have grown over the years. I just thought I would add that. It doesn't make her music different, but her videos are really cool. The one thing this thing is missing is her really high cackling sounds she used to make more often. She still does it some, but it's not like when she sang "emotion" back in the day. Back then, I fronted a Cameo cover band called Slaugefunger. That's german for freakin awesome. We played Word Up and Oh Sheila all of the time. Burns would play a keyboard solo and then sit on a sit and spin for like an hour. When he finally hurled, we collected bids on it and gave the money to North Omaha. We were great and I still am. Burns is awfully cool too.
Get this CD and you'll want the special at Chachi's steak and pudding.

She needs to Follow Layrns Hills Footsteps
since the 90's Mariah been the QUEEN of R&B then entering the 2G she sucked big time then became the Queen again in 05-06 but this one is a weak album I expected a true R&B singer to sing not wanna be Beyonce she should follow Laryn Hill Footsteps R&B & Rap without Killing the Genre

Loser
I do's it naturally? What in the hell? Why is she trying to dumb herself down? You are a total embarrassing mess. Here's a clue, read a book and put some clothes on. Your music sucks.
