It got an A grade from Entertainment Weekly

 

Daydream. Butterfly. Rainbow. Glitter. No, those aren't the names of Barbie's pet ponies, they're the ridiculously saccharine titles of Mariah Carey's albums from 1995 to 2001. So when she called her 10th studio CD The Emancipation of Mimi three years ago, it was clear that she intended to drop the cutesy shtick, let down her weave, and start getting real. It was a clever move. Emancipation was the lucky strike that updated Carey's sound with bass-heavy flavor and reversed the downward spiral of her sales. Now, with E=MC2 — another bold title — she's out to prove that her comeback was no fluke.

 

Of course, it's doubtful that Carey is a secret admirer of Einstein's theory of relativity, but one thing's for sure: The golden-throated diva has discovered a formula that works. Not unlike Emancipation, E=MC2 finds Carey stacking the deck with the hottest producers and guest artists in urban music (Jermaine Dupri, StarGate, T-Pain, Damian Marley, Young Jeezy). The result is a largely enjoyable mix of flirtatious club jams, midtempo love songs, and emotional ballads anchored by hip-hop beats that handsomely showcase the singer's powerful vocal chops.

 

Ever the party girl, Carey opens the album with the sleek and seductive ''Migrate,'' where she imagines getting buzzed on pinot grigio during a night out with the ladies. Other dance-floor anthems include ''I'll Be Lovin' U Long Time'' and ''O.O.C.,'' which, for all of their pop polish, never lose their soulful spirit. But it's not all about velvet ropes and playful come-ons; notably, Carey suffers from a major love hangover on ''Side Effects,'' a synthy cautionary tale about an abusive relationship. ''Wakin' up scared some nights still dreaming 'bout the violent times,'' she sings with outspoken intensity.

 

And yet Carey remains a romantic at heart. With the ballads ''Love Story'' and ''Last Kiss,'' she reunites with Dupri to recapture the passionate splendor of 2005's ''We Belong Together.'' It's unfortunate, then, that E=MC2 closes with its only missteps, the somber elegy ''Bye Bye'' — an odd choice for the follow-up single to the cheeky hit ''Touch My Body'' — and the preachy gospel hymn ''I Wish You Well'' (this CD's version of Emancipation's ''Fly Like a Bird''). Still, for an artist whose career was all but dead four years ago, Carey is wise to play it safe by building on the finest elements of her last CD. Were it not for the final two tracks, she could've gotten away with calling this album Treasure. A-

these ones I really like!

i agree 4Real 4Real and Heat are dire, thank goodness they are bonus tracks and will never be single contenders.

 

i can't do a top 5 cause i like too many, i'm diggin O.O.C in a bigger way plus "i'll be lovin u long time" more. but "migrate" takes it to another level and "for the record" is A+. so many potential singles, sony should release 7 or 8!! i'd rinse this over a 2 year period, i don't see why not -_- don't just beat the beatles record but smash it!!

 

releases:

1. Touch My Body

2. Bye Bye

3. Migrate/I'm That Chick (double A side for Europe)

4. I Stay In Love

5. For The Record

6. Cruise Control

7. I'll Be Lovin U Long Time

8. O.O.C

 

 

 

 

 

 

4Real 4Real is LUSH! :wub: Without Da Brat's rap I'd give it a 9/10. With it, it gets an 8. Fabulous. I LOVE the vibe.

Great review from Entertainment Weekly.

I'm buying this tomorrow and wait with abated breath for Tuesday's midweek update.

I seriously think #2 is a possibilty. Though my mind says a low top 5 position.

My top 5:

1. Love Story

2. Bye Bye

3. I Wish You Well

4. For The Record

5. Migrate

 

I don't like Heat or 4Real 4 Real. I'm going to give them another listen, though. I pre-ordered both E=MC2 (Deluxe Edition) and the concert DVD today. :cheer:

Love Story and For The Record have REALLY grown on me now. :o

 

Now there's only really Last Kiss, I Wish You Well and O.O.C. that i'm not that keen on. ^_^

1. For The Record

2. Bye Bye

3. Side Effects

4. Touch My Body

5. I'm That Chick You Like

I bought the deluxe edition of E=MC² earlier today. ^_^ [/newMariahfan]

 

I've restrained myself from listening to too much of the album ahead of the release date, but I already know that I love 'Migrate', 'Touch My Body' and 'I'm That Chick'. :D

 

I've just bought this an hour ago. Bit gutted there's no pictures in the booklet...oh well, atleast there's lyrics. Unlike Duffy's!!!
