Just Press Play... Submitted on: 2009-11-20 |

This album is AMAZING!!! I have always been a Mariah fan, but when I purchased this album I had so-so expectations.Because she has been doing this for so long I automatically assumed it would be one of those albums that was put out due to contract requirements.So glad to know I was wrong! From the time the first track begins with Betcha Gon' Know, you are swept into this experience that every woman has felt at some point.That revenge moment as Mariah sings "...Betcha gon gon know how it feels...when I get ya back..and ya hearts been cracked..and we fade to black..and you see ya whole world collapse...IMA LA-LA-LA-LA-LA-LAUGH".Her voice is so melodic, so strong, so emotional.I can't gush enough about it so I will list my current top songs(as of this morning lol)in track order:
1.Betcha Gon' Know
2.Obsessed
3.H.A.T.E.U (unbelievable!!!!)
6.Inseparable
7.Standin' O (so catchy you will sing for days)
8.It's a Wrap
15.Angels Cry (was singing this to my hubby last night)
16.Languishing (the shortest track,wish it were longer cause it's so good)
Bottom Line:Get this album if you need to experience every feeling love has to offer..the good and the bad =) |

Mariah Carey is back again and this time in a major way. Following the thoroughly disappointing E=MC2, Mariah Carey has hit a homerun with her new release Memoirs Of An Imperfect Angel. This album is comparable to The Emancipation of Mimi in my opinion and if you enjoyed that album then this one is in that same vein. Mariah's vocals still sound great although of course she can't hit those notes she used to hit in the early 90s. The production is handled by some of the best, if not the best, in the business; The-Dream & Tricky Stewart produce, write, and arrange the entire album. Needless to say that the album has that edgy attitude and tone that the tandem is known for. Towards the end of the album she finds her ballad magic again and it results in some truly remarkable songs.
Listening to this album brings a huge smile to my face which is what music is supposed to do. Throughout listening to the album there was plenty smiles, snaps, claps, and foot tapping going on. It's a mystery to me why this album wasn't the hit it was supposed to be. Mariah's not even Gold yet and that astonishes me (even in the download age). But oh well, low sales figures doesn't mean the album isn't good. I advise you to pick up a copy soon. 5 stars.
*The album comes with a bonus disc of techno/disco remixes that are all horrible...but if you like that kinda thing you might enjoy it. The booklet has all the lyrics as well as some magazine thing with lipstick ads and other useless trivia*

Mariah's Imperfect collection Submitted on: 2009-11-11 |
|
| I have been a fan of Mariah Carey for as long as she's been singing... But I was not really captured by any of these tracks on Imperfect Angel. I found her Perfect Voice overpowered by too much backround clutter music. |

Another Gem from Mariah!! Submitted on: 2009-11-10 |

| Not exactly easy listening, this album it's an excellent work, it shows Mariah's maturity as musician and as a vocalist. For this one, she works more with her low voice as shown on the addictive "Betcha Goin' know", the opening track but also offers the best of her high notes and her super difficult vocal arrangements in songs like "Inseparable" (where she nods Beyonce's "Halo"), "Angels Cry" and "I Want to Know What Love Is". All of them will please her older fans who prefer the ballads as much as they will love "Languishing" which is on the line of previous unreleased yet popular tracks from other albums ("Vanishing", "Looking in" "Petals"). In the past, Mariah has written songs for lost love but on the perspective of missing the lost one or wanting to return back with her lover. This time, she lets her agressive side shows on songs like "Obsessed", the catchy and super funny "Up Out My Face" and the powerful "Standing O". Get this album for christmas for you and your friends, they will thank you forever!!. |

Easily one of her best Submitted on: 2009-11-10 |

I have fallen in love with this album. Like a lot of people have said, this album definitely grows on you after a while and after like three times listening to it i'm in love with every song. Also, a lot of people a all worked up about how "mariah has changed" and isn't the same as she was in the 90's, and how she doesn't "sing" anymore.
Okay, people and especially artists change as time goes on. Mariah is definitely becoming more R&B, but for those who claim she doesn't produce the power ballads anymore obviously haven't heard "Angel's Cry" from this album. And on top of that, what more does Mariah have to prove? She's like the best selling female artist of all time - she doesn't have to include the same "universal ballads of inspiration" that she did a lot of before. Bottom line: it's a great album, the talent is definitely still there and Mariah rocks it out on MOAIA. |
