i'm glad she's carrying on her tradition of collaborating with street rappers

there is no dream on this record afaik, the last one is my fav so this is disappointing to me

"triumphant' is dupri and bryan michael cox, so i'm cautiously optimistic

never mind the production, can't wait to see what ridiculous/incredible verbiosity she manages to come up with this time around. surely one of music's greatest things. <3

it feels more like an ideal MMG pop single than new mariah but fuck it. pretty dope.
― tauheed & cambria (J0rdan S.), Thursday, 2 August 2012 20:29 (fourteen years ago)
lovely layered vocals, love the way it blossoms into the chorus
will need to listen a few more times
― lex pretend, Thursday, 2 August 2012 20:37 (fourteen years ago)

:) cannot wait to hear this on blast when i gt home
― surm, Thursday, 2 August 2012 22:44 (fourteen years ago)
predictably, I hate this
― keeping things contextual (DJP), Thursday, 2 August 2012 22:49 (fourteen years ago)
2nd listen is predictably great - this chorus!
― surm, Thursday, 2 August 2012 23:12 (fourteen years ago)
this is such a blend of all the different mariahs!
― surm, Thursday, 2 August 2012 23:17 (fourteen years ago)
this is kind of lame :/
― k3vin k., Friday, 3 August 2012 00:31 (fourteen years ago)
yeah
needs more mariah
also, production is wack
― i'm a housewife, an artist, and a snow leopard (The Brainwasher), Friday, 3 August 2012 00:38 (fourteen years ago)
i mean i won't argue that i could use more mariah :)
almost throws off any expectation in terms of how it is structured, which i kind of like (ie the fact that she has no verse)
the lyrics are maybe the one thing i take issue with, except that they they do kind of reference Rainbow, which is an alltimer
― surm, Friday, 3 August 2012 01:05 (fourteen years ago)
The only thing I remember about this song is Meek Milli
― REV LION (The Reverend), Friday, 3 August 2012 01:06 (fourteen years ago)
it is definitely more like she is featured
― surm, Friday, 3 August 2012 01:15 (fourteen years ago)
the song that these lyrics most obviously resemble is "Can't Take That Away (Mariah's Theme)" from Rainbow, a Disney-like ballad (much mucccchhhhh more hamfisted than this -- like much) that was also a single. But that was also the album with "Heartbreaker" and "Crybaby" on it soo...
we'll see!
― surm, Friday, 3 August 2012 13:29 (fourteen years ago)
remix up on the website now
― surm, Friday, 3 August 2012 15:22 (fourteen years ago)
lasted twenty seconds

oh my god, amazing. i love rich on mariah.
ngl picked up a lot of vocab from her when I was young. was obsessed with using "nonchalant" in school essays after hearing "breakdown".
really really wish there was more mariah in the song. still have faith in the album tho.
― prolego, Friday, 3 August 2012 17:20 (fourteen years ago)
Idolization - "Babydoll," Butterfly"Do you care for me beyond idolization?"
good question
― r|t|c, Friday, 3 August 2012 17:34 (fourteen years ago)
Remix is class. Original's kinda disappointing.
― Christyles, Friday, 3 August 2012 18:10 (fourteen years ago)
MAKE THEM ALL FALL DOWN
her vocals kind of twinkle, the production is o_O but in a way that i like
― surm, Monday, 6 August 2012 23:27 (fourteen years ago)
btw this song prompted me to listen to the remix album for the first time ever (i know) and let's just say i was hungover for a whole day afterward
― surm, Monday, 6 August 2012 23:28 (fourteen years ago)
the synth that follows the chorus in the vintage throwback remix is just so glorious
― lex pretend, Thursday, 9 August 2012 10:31 (fourteen years ago)
yes i was just thinking about that!!! talk about packs a punch
― surm, Thursday, 9 August 2012 11:02 (fourteen years ago)
omg this remix.
― surm, Thursday, 9 August 2012 11:03 (fourteen years ago)
talk. about. vintage.

yah we talked about it briefly on the miguel thread, so hyped 4 it

i meannnnnnnnnnn
― surm, Wednesday, 24 April 2013 14:03 (thirteen years ago)
dream team much?
esp because i can totally see them bonding aesthetically while having no idea what they'll sound like together
― flamenco drop (lex pretend), Wednesday, 24 April 2013 14:11 (thirteen years ago)

ahahahaha that video

i honestly
all i could this morning was "you guys"
but i was on my iphone and couldn't find ILX. glad to see the thread was already revived

wanted to bump this in celebration of #beautiful as being discussed on the Miguel thread http://www.xclusiveszone.net/2013/05/mariah-carey-ft-miguel-beautiful/
thread of miguel
woohooooooooooooooooooooooo get it!!

i changed the tag on the mp3 in the end, up yours #presentism
― r|t|c, Tuesday, 7 May 2013 00:10 (thirteen years ago)
love this song more and more and more though
― r|t|c, Tuesday, 7 May 2013 00:12 (thirteen years ago)
XD at mariah doing the outro melody in her psycho minnie ripperton whistle range
― r|t|c, Tuesday, 7 May 2013 00:16 (thirteen years ago)
super bright spot
― surm, Tuesday, 7 May 2013 00:19 (thirteen years ago)
maybe i'm just self-brainwashing but the more i marinate in this song the less the charge of mariah being grafted on (or whatever) carries weight - i feel like miggy really thought about her, pictured her in a moment that's really hers
comparable to the job terius did on mjb's 'just fine' imo
super interested to hear how he frames beyonce
― r|t|c, Tuesday, 7 May 2013 00:25 (thirteen years ago)
curious reference. i too feel similarly that it just makes sense with her as the passenger, like why would she start singing b4 he actually drove around for a little bit first
― surm, Tuesday, 7 May 2013 00:27 (thirteen years ago)
what, the mjb ref? it's nothing particular i guess, just when i think of examples of songwriting that really clearly nails its intended artist's persona that's one that always comes to mind
her as passenger is a great way of looking at it
― r|t|c, Tuesday, 7 May 2013 00:33 (thirteen years ago)
love that they produced this <3
― surm, Tuesday, 7 May 2013 03:49 (thirteen years ago)
mariah's verse is seriously on point
― surm, Tuesday, 7 May 2013 03:50 (thirteen years ago)
YES
― flamenco drop (lex pretend), Tuesday, 7 May 2013 12:14 (thirteen years ago)
cannot wait to hear what the rest of the album sounds like
she said there will be more ballads than u would think which i can't decide if that makes me nervous or not. it worked in 2005 but ... i dunno.
― surm, Tuesday, 7 May 2013 16:55 (thirteen years ago)
I was kinda in the hmm this is more like a Miggy song on the first pass, but after a thousand relistens, when the music drops out and Mariah's all OH HOW YOU THRILL ME, that's when it's Mariah's song. no question in my mind.

reminds me of "Ribbon" not in style but in the sheer warmth on the track tbh, the joy
― surm, Wednesday, 8 May 2013 21:57 (thirteen years ago)
this song got me bad
― tpp, Wednesday, 8 May 2013 22:11 (thirteen years ago)
it's been in my head all day long
does anyone have a link to the video??
― surm, Thursday, 9 May 2013 02:23 (thirteen years ago)
can't find anything yet. hopefully soon!
