Hot MC News!!!

The article is about MC's new album. There are two new names of songs mentioned on it.
Also reagrding that MTV is not that cool regarding to MC this article is really very positive!

The article:

"Mariah Carey's got more men than she knows what to do with working on her upcoming record, that is. So far, the singer has enlisted a host of top rappers, R&B stars and producers for the project, now slated for a spring release.
When asked about the album recently, Carey responded coyly: "Oh, you don't want to hear about that now. You can just wait. No, the record is cool. I'm happy with it. We got ballads, we got uptempos, we got a lot of things."
So far, Carey has collaborated with Kanye West, R. Kelly, N.O.R.E., Jermaine Dupri, Swizz Beatz, James Poyser, Randy Jackson and, most recently, the Neptunes and Snoop Dogg. "I just did two records with the Neptunes, and one with me, Snoop and Pharrell," she said.
Jermaine Dupri worked with her recently as well, putting what he calls the "JD bounce" on a track called "Shake 'Em Off" and then stepping out of the producer's chair to duet with Carey on a song called "Can I Get Your Number." "Mariah is singing unlike we've heard her in a while," Dupri said. "Sh-- is hot."
N.O.R.E. concurred, saying that after he worked with the singer for her album, he immediately enlisted her services for his own forthcoming LP, One Fan a Day, due out December 21. One of his tracks at first tentatively called "Friends" and now currently without a title features a previously unreleased verse from the late Big Punisher. Carey, however, didn't have the benefit of hearing that verse before she came up with the chorus.
"I told her to think like Pun was still alive," N.O.R.E. said. "I told her to think of [Pun's] 'It's So Hard' and 'I'm Not a Player.' I know she was mad at me [because she didn't get to hear it], but I know the world is going to love it."
Yet another collaboration this time with Scott Storch was just as fruitful, but for someone else's album. Hearing a beat Storch made for Jadakiss' single "U Make Me Wanna" made Carey wanna ... be on the song (see "Jadakiss Has More Questions, And So Do Nas And Common").
"I was just like, 'This is hot tamale. We need to do this together,' " she said. "And then we went into the studio, and basically they had the 'La-La-La' part, and I started singing 'K-i-s-s me' because I was thinking of his name ..."
"She made it a hit," Jadakiss interrupted.
"No, I'm not trying to take no credit," Carey continued. "It's just that it was cute, so I started singing it, and they decided to make it the hook of the song, and then it came to be."
Now that she's softened up Jada's single, she's eager to have the rapper return the favor.
"When are you going to get some Kiss vocals on there?" the rapper asked her.
"I have a nice track that I would love for you to be on," Carey told him. "It's a Swizz Beatz record that's hot tamale, and we need you on it."
"No doubt. It's a done deal," Jadakiss said. "And I heard it first."

Since Carey's album is still in progress, it hasn't been determined which, if any, of Carey's pairings will make the final cut, her label rep noted."

Mariah gibt Details zu neuem Album preis
Es gibt Neuigkeiten über Mariahs neues Studioalbum, das wahrscheinlich Anfang nächsten Jahres erscheinen wird und von denjenigen, die es bereits hören durften, als das "stärkste ihrer Karriere" bezeichnet wird. In einem von MTV News herausgebrachten Artikel heißt es heute: "(...) Mariah Carey arbeitet derzeit wie verrückt an ihrem neuen Album, zusammen mit den angesagtesten Rap- pern, R&B-Stars und Produzenten (...) Als sie dann kürzlich zu dem Album befragt wurde, antwor- tete Carey keck: 'Oh, ich glaube nicht, daß sie jetzt schon etwas darüber hören wollen. Warten Sie bitte noch ein wenig ab. Nein, Spaß beiseite. Die Scheibe ist cool. Sie gefällt mir und ich bin auf alle Fälle glücklich mit ihr. Darauf zu hören sind Balladen, Uptempos, einfach viel.' Bislang hat Carey mit Kanye West, R. Kelly, N.O.R.E., Jermaine Dupri, Swizz Beatz, James Poyser, Randy Jackson und zu- letzt auch mit den Neptunes sowie Snoop Dogg für das Album zusammengearbeitet. 'Ich habe gera- de erst zwei Nummern mit den Neptunes fertiggestellt. Auf einer weiteren sind Pharrell, Snoop und ich zu hören,' sagte sie (...) Auch Jermaine Dupri hat vor Kurzem mit der Sängerin für ihre neue Plat- te zusammengearbeitet. So hat er den Track 'Shake 'Em Off' mit dem 'JD Bounce', wie er den für ihn typischen Sound bezeichnet, versehen. Und für 'Can I Get Your Number?' hat er seinen Produzen- tenstuhl verlassen und sich mit Carey ins Aufnahmestudio gestellt, um mit ihr auf diesem Track zu duettieren. 'Mariah singt so, wie wir sie lange nicht mehr gehört haben,' erzählte Dupri. 'Der Sch**ß ist heiß.' (...) Desweiteren soll Mariah auch Rapper Jadakiss, mit dem sie in diesem Jahr bereits für 'U Make Me Wanna' kollaborierte, für den von Swizz Beat produzierten Track auf ihrem neuen Album verpflichtet haben. 'Es gibt da einen netten Track auf dem neuen Album, auf dem ich Dich auch ger- ne hören wollte,' soll Carey ihm gesagt haben (...) Da Careys Album aber noch nicht ganz vollendet ist, bleibt abzuwarten, welche Songs es letztendlich auf die endgültige Version des Albums schaf- fen werden."

let's hope she really sings like hell...:yes:

they also said similar things before charmbracelet came out..ok they said she went back to the roots..but they didn't say she sing with power...so I hope this time it is true and we can expect the thing we all yearn most for:

MC's adorable powerful voice!!! (As she proved on the concerts how powerful she is

)

I'm pessimistic about the whole thing. It really sounds like the news before Charmbracelet was coming out. And all the Hip Hop Collaborations are not such a positive sign for a good voice....we will see or better hear...
