Mariah Carey planning a remix album
4Trey Songz has just prematurely revealed what LA Reid and Mariah Carey have been keeping from us: There’s another album in the pipeline. When Memoirs Of An Imperfect Angel came out we were surprised that there were no “featuring” artists on it. She’s has another artists to collaborate with on every album since her Christmas album back in 1994. So, now we know why. The Timbaland and Jermaine Durpi tracks will be joined by a myriad of remixed tracks from the album itself. Trey Songs has just been commissioned to re-do “Inseparable.” Let’s see what’s next.
Mariah Carey’s new album has leaked!
2Oh, this is a very good day for us. Just before we decided to leave, we found out that Mariah’s album Memoirs Of An Imperfect Angel has leaked in it’s entirety, in full quality. Yes, the day is here. It’s nice out, too. The album’s supposed to land next week. Mariah releases rarely leak. But, I guess someone got a hold of it. We pre-ordered many copies of it (it’s a ritual we do every time this happens) but we are still happy to get it.

Amazon reviews Mariah Carey’s “Memoirs Of An Imperfect Angel”
10Imperfections are in the eye of the beholder. You can see them as flaws, or as the very qualities that make us human — and that make us strive to be better people in search of a perfection that we know we can never fully achieve. In the thirteen songs on her spellbinding new album, Memoirs Of An Imperfect Angel, Mariah Carey explores those aspects of our shared humanity with a rare depth, honesty and open-heartedness. It’s one of the strongest statements in her long, distinguished career.
The subject of Memoirs is love at all its stages in our lives. Experiencing it for the first time. Losing it. Remembering its most painful moments, and also its times of greatest innocence and joy. Yearning for it. Learning from it. Growing as a result of its profound power. Finding it again and being grateful for so great a gift. And, finally, being humbled, filled with wonder and elevated by love’s mysterious ways. In that sense and more, Memoirs is a full, immensely satisfying journey.
Mariah Carey releases second single “I Want To Know What Love Is”
3Unfortunately, the second single from Mariah Carey’s new album Memoirs Of An Imperfect Angel is going to be the cover of the big-hair Foreigner ballad “I Want To Know What Love Is” from their Agent Provocateur album. This comes as a surprise because originally it was thought to be “100%,” which is a “We Belong Together”-esque ditty. If you ask me, this sounds like a recipe for disaster. Firstly because cover versions don’t fair well in US markets (Mariah has had only one cover version go to #1 in the US and it was her rendition of the Jackson 5′s “I’ll Be There.”)
Mariah Carey to release box set
3To make up for the fact that she postponed Memoirs Of An Imperfect Angel 2 times now, Mariah and her camp have decided to release a box set of all her Island Records albums. From the underrated Charmbracelet, to the comeback hit The Emancipation Of Mimi, to her latest E=MC2. This would give the fans her entire musical efforts singe Glitter. The package will come with a nice price tags for all the recessionistas out there and probably a booklet of sorts.
Mariah Carey’s new album will be a magazine
7Wow, the recession’s in full force right now that even the biggest of artists are feeling it. Mariah Carey’s next album Memoirs Of An Imperfect Angel will be a different release than what we usually expect from the diva. It is going to come with a CD booklet-sized Elle magazine that comes with the first million pressings in the US and first half million pressings worldwide. Yes, it’s going to include the magazine with advertisements and an intimate interview with MC. It’s no longer product placement when it comes to album or videos, it’s full-on advertising. So far, Angel Champagne and the Bahamas Board Of Tourism bought some of the space and L.A. Reid is looking for more by announcing this.
Mariah Carey to be broadway actress
Another Mariah post, but when it rains it pours. There’s just so much news about Mariah what with the new album and tour and now acting career. Mariah is planning on taking the West End of London sometime soon. She’s getting paid a not so hefty price for it – $15,000, which is bad for a singer that gets a million for a concert date. But, this will be a good ground for her to start upon. With her movies Tennessee and Precious coming out soon. Her world tour and her album Memoirs Of An Imperfect Angel. I know I am heading to LHR for it.
Exclusive: Mariah Carey debuts “Obsessed”
4I just listened to Mariah’s “Obsessed” on the first radio station to debut it – Chicago B96. It’s in the same vain as “Touch My Body,” except it is lower tempo and has fiercer lyrics. It will impact radio just fine and should sell. The release of the album has been pushed to the earlier date of 25th August. This is almost the first time a Mariah album gets this treatment. Memoirs Of An Imperfect Angel seems like it is ready to go and they must be confident about it. Listen to it by licking below:

Exclusive: Mariah Carey to release new song this tuesday
2It’s amazing what a little tweet can do. Mariah Carey just announced, to many people’s amazement, that the first single off of her upcoming album Memoirs Of An Imperfect Princess is called “Obsessed” and will be released this tuesday. This is how the tweet went:
“The 1st single from my new album “Memoirs of an imperfect angel” is called “Obsessed” and will be at radio next tuesday. I’m a lil’ excited!”
The album was slated for a late September release, but that was tentative and almost every Mariah album has been pushed back before. So, to have the single hit radio (and the blogosphere inevitably) this early was somewhat of a surprise. Who knows? Maybe she is trying to give Whitney Houston a break and not release the album at the same time or maybe she is just so happy with the product that it is ready for a release. Sudden releases are good because they make a bigger impact.
Whitney Houston to release new album soon
4The album finally got a release date from Arista Records officials. It’s slated for a September 1, 2009 release. No word on the title yet, but the one that has been floating around is Undefeated. But, wikipedia is now reporting that it will be called The Wait Is Over. The latter is a bit boring. The first single is called “I Didn’t Know My Own Strength” and that sounds just like the perseverance ditty that she needs. It’s weird that it’s also coming out around the same time as Mariah Carey’s Memoirs Of An Imperfect Angel. Can’t wait!
