New Mariah Album

My favourite singer Mariah Carey has a new album out! It's her first album in 4 years (the last one being Me. I Am Mariah...The Elusive Chanteuse which came out in May 2014). The new one is called Caution and was released on 16th November. It's Mariah's 15th studio album.

Despite being a long term Mariah fan, I wasn't that keen on Me. I Am Mariah; I just didn't like it as much as previous albums. My favourite song was Faded (only song I've bought currently, but there are others I like listening to on Spotify that I may buy in future, such as You Don't Know What To Do and Meteorite ). The last full Mariah album I got was 2009's Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel (I do also have some songs from 2010's Merry Christmas II You). These days with online music and sites and apps such as iTunes, YouTube, Spotify etc., people don't tend to buy full albums as much, but I still love CDs! I have a lot less physical CD albums nowadays though. Anyway, I was excited to hear that there was a new Mariah album! (Been on a bit of an old MC album kick the last couple of days or so, lol).

I really like Caution, I feel it's more "classic Rn'B" Mariah, songs kind of like on The Emancipation of Mimi (2005), E=MC² (2008) and Memoirs. So far my faves are A No No, The Distance and Giving Me Life. I also like GTFO, Caution, One Mo' Gen and 8th Grade. I haven't bought any yet because I hope to get the album for Christmas! Here are a few songs from Caution. :)

First up here is GFTO, a promotional single which was released in September: https://starsparklex.blogspot.com/2018/09/new-mariah-carey-video.html


This is the video for With You, the lead single from the album. It came out on 4th October.



Here is Caution. This (like the rest of the songs) is an audio.



The Distance featuring American singer/rapper Ty Dolla $ign. My favourite part is the chorus.


A No No:


Update 8/3/19: There's now a music video for A No No which was uploaded today. Look out for Mariah's twins Moroccan and Monroe ("Dem Babies") and her boyfriend dancer Bryan Tanaka in the video! :)



Giving Me Life featuring British-American rapper Slick Rick and British singer Blood Orange. I like the music in this and the bit it goes into at the end.


                                     

And finally 8th Grade:



I will add music videos as and when there are any. :)

25th Anniversary of Mariah Carey's Butterfly Album

My favourite singer Mariah Carey recently released a 25th anniversary edition of her 6th studio album Butterfly. The original album was released on 16th September 1997 and featured songs such as her hit single Honey, The Roof and My All. It was actually the first album I ever bought (on cassette tape, lol) and I still consider it one of my fave MC albums. :) Butterfly was the first album that Mariah had more control over and it is R'n'B, rather than the pop (and later pop/R'n'B) of her previous releases. It also has pop and hip hop influences.  The expanded edition contain 8 extra tracks (the original standard edition has 12)- a duet version of Whenever You Call with Brian McKnight , a new take on The Roof featuring Brandy , live versions of Butterfly and My All, acapella versions of Fourth of July and Outside, an Amorphous Anniversary Club Mix of Butterfly (with DJ Amorphous ) and a remix of Honey (Another Taste of Honey David Morales Mix). I had previously heard the

Debut XG Mini Album

Japanese girl group XG have released their 1st mini album. It's called NEW DNA and was released on 27th September. XG (whose name is short for Xtraordinary Girls) made their debut in March last year and have brought out 7 singles so far- Tippy Toes, MASCARA, LEFT RIGHT/SHOOTING STAR double single), GVRL GANG , TGIF, NEW DANCE and PUPPET SHOW. The first 3 songs (or 4 including the double single) aren't on the mini album. The concept behind NEW DNA is that of being a "new species" free from conventions and limitations .  Although the group is Japanese, their creation was inspired by Korean music and they are based in South Korea. They have released songs in English so far and have been described as a global group and "X-pop". NEW DNA consists of 6 tracks- HESONO, X-GENE, GVRL GANG, TGIF, NEW DANCE and PUPPET SHOW. It is an R'n'B/pop mini album with influences from other genres, such as K-pop, dance and hip hop. My favourite song is PUPPET SHOW. I al
