MARIAH CAREY DISCUSSES "MEMOIRS OF AN IMPERFECT ANGEL"

***MC's new album has taken anticipation to a new higher level as we continue to draw close to the release date as the days pass. With every single album she drops, the production and the lyricism has always made the album certifiable to reach platinum status in just a short period of time especially with the numerous amounts of dedicated fans she has collected over years she has dominated the game.
***She recently spoke to MTV News about her upcoming album and the production that was put together the new project. These were her comments: "I worked with Timbaland for the first time, I'm a fan of Timbaland's, so I enjoyed it. [The song] hasn't even been mixed yet but I think it's really cool. I worked with Big Jim Wright, who works with Sounds of Blackness a lot, and so there's live-feeling songs on the album. A lot of my fans, since I've been twittering, a lot of the fans are like, 'We want some live-sounding stuff,' so you have to find that middle ground."
***"I worked with JD again, I always love working with Jermaine. Every time it's just ... it reminds me of the first time we worked together, which was 'Always Be My Baby'. Once you do a song like that and you have it forever, you wanna just continue to try and re-create that magic, so that's what we do."
***Between both Timbaland and Jermaine Dupri, look forward to a plethora of hits. Now while she did state that it is her first time working with Timbaland on different tracks, this isn't the first time she'd work with JD. The Atlanta native has produced chart toppers such as "Sweetheart" and "We Belong Together". The recent single "Obsessed", allegedly targeted at Eminem, was produced and arranged by The Dream and Tricky Stewart. Now if the album continues on the same path that "Obsessed" provided, then it will be full of power ballads. If this continues, MC will be looking at yet another multi-platinum selling record.
***At press time, "Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel" will be her twelfth studio album officially set for a September 15 release date in the U.S. with an August 24 and 26 release for England and Japan.
