Album review: Mariah Carey - ‘Memoirs Of An Imperfect Angel’

23 Oct 2009 10:45:08 PDT

Written by Vicky
Rating: 5/10 We learn a lot from the mini Elle[i] magazine included with Mariah Carey’s new album. It’s packed full of insights on the pneumatic-breasted Grammy magnet. She wears pink velour tracksuits round the house and thigh-high Stella McCartneys on the town. Her Elizabeth Arden frag...

Written by Ash
‘Angel’ grows on you ANY follower of Mariah Carey’s 19-year career since her first album (Vision of Love, 1990) would tell you that Memoirs of An Imperfect Angel doesn’t warm up to the listeners immediately as much as her earlier albums. It is ambitiously fresh-sounding with no pop sensib...

Dutch Review: Mariah Carey - Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel

12 Oct 2009 15:09:20 PDT

Written by Ash
In the 90 Carey was hugely successful, but early this century, the diva’s creativity & commercial appeal waned with the albums Glitter and Charmbracelet. A few years later she was on form again with the very solid The Emancipation Of Mimi and E=MC2.

Review: Mariah Carey - Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel

12 Oct 2009 03:01:03 PDT

Written by Ash
Mariah Carey’s new album, “Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel” has a main theme: love. Fans of Carey will not be surprised about this theme, because most of her albums are about love, whether it be about finding it or losing it. Sadly, fans would be right in saying that this album does not live up to t...

The influx of divas on the New Releases display not your thing? There’s also the Avett Brothers’ lush chamber folk major label debut I and Love and You, produced by Rick Rubin. For the dark and dramatic set, AFI’s Crash Love earned three stars from RS, while Alice in Chains’ Black Gives Way to...

Written by Vicky
Of late though, Ms. Carey has been whispering, as if newly scared of grand gestures. In 2005 it made for a surprise success with “The Emancipation of Mimi,” one of her best-selling albums, but also one of her most deceptive. Though the melodies were straightforward, Ms. Carey was working hard...

Music Review: Carey’s ‘Imperfect Angel’ is perfect

Written by Ash
“I should crack you right in your forehead,” Mariah Carey sings on the breakup tune “It’s a Wrap.” CHECK THIS TRACK OUT: “It’s a Wrap” joins tracks like “Vision of Love,” “Always Be My Baby” and “We Belong Together” as a classic Mariah song. Source: Associated Press | Mariah Connection

Album review: Mariah Carey’s ‘Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel’

25 Sep 2009 12:47:05 PDT

Written by Vicky
Carey’s lyrics — she co-writes everything here, except for her fairly unremarkable cover of Foreigner’s “I Want to Know What Love Is” — make this point most obviously. Even when fully dressed in the armor of her glamour, as when she advises an ex (Eminem? More likely it’s Latin pop star Luis...

Who says being a pop diva is easy? There is the constant pressure to look great and sound all-conquering while staving off a legion of younger sisters nipping at your stiletto heels. Which brings us to Mariah Carey, she of the 175 million worldwide record sales and the multitude of comeback...

24 Sep 2009 08:13:58 PDT

Written by Kerry
Mariah Carey has always had a way with words. Despite unlikely pop-song vocabulary like “alienation” appearing in hits like “Vision of Love,” her lyrics started out relatively simple. Love takes time. You’ve got me feeling emotions. Dreamlover, come rescue me. But right around the time she...

Opinion: On The Cover Additions

After the demise of her marriage, many assumed that Carey's career would be on shaky ground. After all, divorcing your boss isn't exactly Rule Number One In The Book Of Career Advancement. But in the immediate period after the split, Mariah managed to have another successful album in 'Butt...

Even for someone like me who has mainly been exposed to Mariah Carey while listening to the radio in my car, the songs are instantly recognizable and I have to say enjoyable. “Hero,” “I’ll Be There,” “I Still Believe,” “Endless Love” with Luther Vandross, and “Vision Of Love” cover familia...

Opinion: Mariah Carey gets efficient on Hollywood Boulevard

01 Aug 2008 10:36:19 PDT

Written by Ash
Since her career rebirth with 2005’s “The Emancipation of Mimi,” Carey has abandoned the wild vocal wailing that gave rise to “American Idol” and has emerged a thinner-voiced, but far more efficient, singer. Check “I’m That Chick,” where the lyrics are embarrassing drivel (Carey compa...

Opinion: Fans Report From The Tennessee Premiere

27 Apr 2008 13:12:00 PDT

The song "Right To Dream"] is not really country and it's very Mariah. She said she wrote it on the telephone with Willie, so it's unclear how much he contributed (at the end of the movie, it's credited as written by Mariah Carey, produced by Mariah Carey) but I think that was an oversight.

Mimi’s finest hour: Album review

20 Apr 2008 18:35:46 PDT

Written by Vicky
Admit it- you were nervous. What if Mariah’s triumphant return to form with The Emancipation of Mimi was a flash in the pan, a one-off, a swan song, a fluke? What if the follow-up album E=MC2 was embarrassing, lacklustre, a Leona Lewis kind of record that you really wanted to like but somehow...

CD Review: Mariah Carey - “E=MC2”

18 Apr 2008 00:42:35 PDT

Written by Ash
Source: The Kane County Chronicle Rating: 2 stars It doesn’t take Einstein to figure out that “E=MC2” suggests “Emancipation equals Mariah Carey to the second power.” From title to execution, it appears that Carey’s 10th album is a sequel to 2005’s “The Emancipation of Mimi,” which retu...

E=MC² Album Reviews

13 Apr 2008 22:59:29 PDT

Mariah Carey E=MC² For everyone who thought 2005's "The Emancipation of Mimi," Carey's uneven "comeback" album after "Glitter," was the bee's knees, they'll love what amounts to its sequel. (I'm no Einstein, but the title could work with that theory.) Mariah Carey E=MC²

Mariah’s New Album: First Review

09 Apr 2008 00:32:48 PDT

Written by Ash
Even more than “Emancipation,” “E=Mc2” sounds like a jukebox full of singles for the best summer party ever. “I Stay in Love” is a killer ballad, and “Wish You Well” is a gospel-tinged ode to Aretha Franklin’s “Natural Woman” that shows off the best of her range. Another track, “Bye Bye” is al...

Opinion: Mariah Carey's "E=MC2" offers genre-crossing equation

28 Mar 2008 17:50:09 PDT

Q: And after the success of "We Belong Together," "Don't Forget About Us" -- co-produced by Bryan-Michael Cox -- and "Shake It Off" on "Mimi," you've teamed up with Jermaine Dupri again for several songs on "E=MC2." Q: The "Touch My Body" video is hilarious.

First "Touch My Body" Review by Bob Burke

12 Feb 2008 11:28:08 PST

How does an artist follow-up one of their biggest selling albums that included two number one singles when most had written the artist off as a causality of being relevant or not? If you�re Mariah Carey, you keep it simple, and that�s one thing MC has done with her debut single from her forth...
