Editorial Review: Album Description: Performer and songwriter Mariah Carey has set April 15th as the in-store date for the most eagerly anticipated album of the year, E=MC². The 11th studio album of her career, E=MC² is the follow-up to The Emancipation Of Mimi, Mariah's worldwide 10 million selling #1 album, which generated three Grammy awards (including Best Contemporary R&B Album), 2 #1 singles and countless more industry honors during its 18-month stay on the charts. The first single from E=MC² is "Touch My Body," written and produced by Mariah Carey, C. "Tricky" Stewart, and The-Dream, and blasting out worldwide on February 12th. The video for "Touch My Body" was directed by feature filmmaker Brett Ratner - Internet, cable and network premieres for the video will be announced in the weeks ahead. In addition to C. "Tricky" Stewart and The-Dream, other guest producers joining Mariah on E=MC² will include Jermaine Dupri, DJ Toomp, Stargate, Will I Am, Bryan Michael Cox, Nate "Danjahandz" Hills and James Poyser.. E=MC² is executive produced by Mariah Carey and Antonio "LA" Reid, Chairman, Island Def Jam Music Group. The Emancipation Of Mimi, released April 12, 2005, was an industry phenomenon for the mega-platinum award-winning superstar - Soundscan's biggest-selling album of the year, bringing total sales of Mariah's albums, singles and videos to more than 160 million worldwide, making her the most successful female recording artist in history. Mimi featured "We Belong Together" (winner of the Best Female R&B Vocal and Best R&B Song Grammys) and "Don't Forget About Us," Mariah's 16th and 17th #1 career singles respectively. They tied one of the most enduring chart records in Billboard Hot 100 history, Elvis Presley's 17 #1's. Mariah is now positioned as the only active recording artist in the 48 years of the Hot 100 (which began in 1958) with the potential to surpass the Beatles' all-time high of 20 #1 hits. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - E=MC2 I love this album. This album is just as good as her last one back in 2005. The album means emancipation = Mariah Carey to the second power. The music appeals to Pop, R&B, Hip Hop, Reggae(Cruise Control) and Gospel(I Wish You Well). On this album, She worked with The Dream, Jermaine Dupri, Will.i.am, Stargate, DJ Troomp, and C. "Tricky" Stewart. Her concentration is not on club-oriented dance tracks but on smooth, mid-tempo R&B that pulses with sexy glamour. Nothing on this album is a radical depature, ... Read More Rating:  - Disappoininting Followup"E=MC2" was, for me, the most anxiously-awaited CD of 2008. I was excited to see if Mariah would be able to top or at least duplicate the sheer perfection of her 2005 comeback disc, the stellar "The Emanication of Mimi". Unfortunately, Mimi fell way short with this offerring. The first single, the disasterous "Touch My Body", was a sign of what I was to expect from the rest of the CD. "E=MC2"'s downfall is it depends too much on recycled drum beats, as well as songs and melodies with little ... Read More Rating:  - 3 1/2 stars - More of the same from MimiMariah Carey - E=MC² (Island Def Jam, 2008) In 2005, Mariah Carey resurrected her career with The Emancipation of Mimi and won many awards for it. Many were patiently waiting for her follow-up. Although the first single, the Dream-produced "Touch My Body" (his first hit to not contain that annoying "stutter" thing he does--see "Umbrella", "Bed" and "Falsetto") came out and hit #1, the true test was to see if the accompanying album would be better or worse than Emancipation. Yeah, ... Read More Rating: - Mariah Carey - E=MC2 5.5/10While it is doubtful that Mariah Carey has been reading up on Einstein's work on relativity, it's clear that she's been working on a different kind of formula: bring in talented producers, add some diverse guest artists, subtract the frothy vapidity of her earlier work and multiply the catchy beats. The result is a continuation of Carey's comeback effort that began with 2005's The Emancipation of Mimi. Switching from steamy club jams to power ballads to adult contemporary empowerment singalongs, ... Read More Rating: - Mimi tries to follow up a great album like Emancipation. Let's see how this one faired:Just so you know, I received the album 2 days ago. And I've listened to every song at least 2x, my favorites even more. * ** *** ** * Migrate 8.25/10 Used to annoy me. Should've used some other rapper other than T-Pain. Touch My Body 9/10 Great song but overplayed. Cruise Control 8.75/10 A nice rhythm to it. Composition is nice too. Melodic. I Stay In Love 10.25/10 What else is there to say besides ... Read More Browse for similar items by category:
