No problem. ^_^

 

Mariah has left a new voicemail on her website saying she's really working hard and pushing for the album to be out this year. :D

 

Transcript from Mariah's official new voicemail:

 

"Hello! I know I haven't called you since 1802. Actually, I haven't called anyone. I've been really, really busy and when I do get free time, I'm on vocal rest so I can like get back in the studio for 20 billion hours. So everybody's mad at me but whatever (laughs). I did get a couple of days of vacation in Capri which was a stone groove and I was happy 'cause I haven't been there since I was recording the Mimi record like three years ago. So that was nice for me.

 

Anyway, I was just sitting here and I was looking through some fan books and like letters and stuff that I've gotten from you guys over the years and I was like, you know, reminiscing and just realizing how stellar you are and how funny. Some of you guys are stone comedians you do know this, right? (laughs). So funny you are and how happy you make me and I decided that I needed to give you a nice call to check in and tell you that everything is flantastic.

 

Let's see what's going on. I'm not allowed to talk about Tennessee because they want the performance to speak for itself and everything like that but that is obviously something that I'm excited about. What can I talk about? Let's think. I'm very, very, very excited about how the fragrance came out. Remember I was telling you that it was like I had so much fun you know working on it and stuff like that and so it's really, I'm very looking forward to seeing how you guys like it, should be in stores by September and hopefully you like it as much as I do.

 

And yeah, last but not least, the nice songs that I've been working on, I quite enjoy them. I've written my 10th so far and like about...and I guess I'm going to Atlanta next week to work with JD so that should be a stone groove/hit wonder or at least a stone groove, hopefully (laughs). But that's about it. I'm trying to get the record out this year so I'm gonna be holed up in the studio for like the next few months and I will see you when I'm done. Also, the other bleakness is my trainer is living with me and it's bleak because I can't eat anything good and she makes me workout after I've been in the studio for like 80 trillion hours but whatever. We love her, and we love everybody.

 

So I will check in again but please don't take it personally if it's like a little bit sporadic because it's just because I'm working and I'm trying hard to get the nice album out by the end of this year. That is the goal. So I'm gonna wrap it up now but I love you as always. Love you, appreciate you, and I enjoy you and I will chat with you soon. Bye!"

 

Trey recently revealed that Mariah has completed twenty songs and has been working with Jermaine Dupri.

In an interview earlier today with V-103 FM in Atlanta, Georgia, Jermaine Dupri mentioned that he and Mariah are now both in Atlanta and currently working on her new album while girlfriend, Janet Jackson is in Miami, Florida working on hers with the help of L.A. Reid. He said that if Janet needs his help, he will be there. He, however, said that the reason for the current set-up is so that they can get both albums out this year.

Does anyone think that Mariah's track from the Tennessee soundtrack may be tagged onto the end? :o

I think that's a possibility, yeah. Although I do know they're making a whole soundtrack album for the film so they might not include it on her album? Who knows though.

Seems like STONE GROOVE is the new HOT TAMALE :cheer:

Lol true ;) I remember this interview where she said ''My new album is going to be a real stone groove'' and the interviewer was like WTF lol :lol:

From R. Kelly's most recent interview with RWD Magazine.

 

 

Last time you did a collabo?

"You got a lot of people on my album, and I'm writing for Mariah Carey and Britney Spears at the moment. And I have written a song for Stevie Wonder. I would really love to work with him."

Just coming to post this, good work Kieran. :D

 

I'm not overly pleased about this, I think R Kelly is well past his best now. :(

Yup. -_- He's had is time, now it's just time to stop. :/

R Kelly has written some classics though, You Are Not Alone by Jacko to name one. When he writes ballads and not this hip-hop $h!t he is trying to fit in with, he is actually very talented.

Thanks for all the updates.

 

I agree Kieran, his ballads are a lot better than his hip hop material. I think his voice is better suited for the ballads.

Yep. And even when he writes for others it just seems better when he writes ballads.

I Believe I Can Fly. :wub:

I just read somewhere that apparntly, Madonna and Mariah's album will be released on the same day. :o

Illusions: The Butterfly Within is fake then?
