When I heard Mariah Carey’s new album, E=MC², for the first time, I kinda enjoyed it. But, when I heard it for the second time, I quickly got bored of it. Why? Because of it’s mid-tempo songs – very similar-sounding. The album kinda continues in the same vein as her previous album.

Album opener, personally, the best track, “Migrate”, a hip hop floor mover, starts the album off with a bang, but then it quickly gets monotonous. Nevertheless, it is a measured mix of R&B, dance, pop and old-school expressions .

Like it or not, Mariah Carey is technically empowered with her voice, and in some cases, she flaunts her lower notes, though it’s not flattering, it emotionally hits the right spot. Other recommended tracks include, “Cruise Control”, “I Stay in Love”, “Side Effects”. 4/10 on the Gallivanter’s Scale.

Mariah Carey featuring T-Pain – Migrate

Once again nothin’ jumpin’ up in yo place,
Sick of your berry buzzin’ all in my face,
Way too much to tolerate,
Time to roll,
Y’all know I gots to migrate.
Speed dial connecting me to Rae-Rae (Hey)
Click in Shawntae and Mae-Mae (Hey)
Treat it as a holiday,
Cause he’s a wrap,
Y’all know I had to migrate.

See I’m on my way home,
Cause my jeans, yeah they fit,
But it might benefit
Me to throw something on,
To feature my hips,
Accentuate my ****
And steal the show.

Soon as we walk through the door,
Fellas be grabbin’ at us like yo,
Tryin’ to get us going off the Patron,
We sippin’ Grigio… slow.

If your neck and your wrist coordinate,
Hair braided or faded okay,
We can move this back to my place,
It’s time to migrate.

From my car into the club we migrate,
From the bar to V.I.P. we migrate,
From the party to the after party, migrate,
After party to hotel, migrate.

laeticia It is, isn’t it? Still, I rate Mariah’s voice very highly, in fact, the best female voice in the music business.
