Lenzo88 Posted November 16, 2018 Share Posted November 16, 2018 Less than three hours til it’s available!!! I know it won’t top her magnum opus “Butterfly” or her early 90s classics but I’m expecting something A LOT stronger than “Charmbracelet”, “Rainbow” and “Me. I Am Mariah”.

Streaming done kill't dat chance for da elder. A new age, day and time. Yall expect too much when the odds are (clearly) already set in stone. Janet's in her 50s..there wont be anymore "hits".. Stop being hopeful and foolish ppl.

Lenzo88 Posted November 16, 2018 Share Posted November 16, 2018 OMG!!! This album is LIFE!!! "Giving Me Life" and "Stay Long Love You" are EVERYTHANG!!! "Portrait" is like the PERFECT ender, such a sweet ballad that reminds of a MUCH better version of "Butterfly" (Title Track, I mean!) "With You" def sounds better in the context of the album but it is STILL one of the weakest songs/first singles of her career! What was she thinking?!?

Laveaux Posted November 16, 2018 Share Posted November 16, 2018 She will be competing with the Creed 2 soundtrack, best of luck to her. I remember when the Empire soundtrack snatched that number 1 from Madonna...a damn shame. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This album will be far less But then She also discounted this album. It’s $7.99 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, you saw the Gltiter revival. I'm not sure how much that will translate here, but the album is really good so word of mouth could carry it far. Stay Long Love You is that BOP.

The Gutter “revival” was a #1 on iTunes during a slow week. It’s not impressive at all. It becoming #1 for a day can be equivalent to 500-2k figures. Not good Caution isn’t a good album and has zero hits.. the promo tour won’t matter (ask Madonna). I don’t see it surpassing 50k first week of physical sales Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t see it surpassing 50k first week of physical sales A 17 year old album selling 3K is still a 17yo album selling 3K. That's how much a lot of albums in the top 10 sell (pure sales) these days. Nothing to sneeze at. Put the haterade down. We don't care about hits anymore after nearly three decades in the industry; she hasn't had a legitimate pop hit since 2009. It's a really solid, concise album that moves her sound forward significantly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it ain’t #1; iTunes #1 are even more meaningless* Beautiful was a top 20 hit so your 2009 number seems, outdated. This album isn’t an improvement on her sound. Nothing on here sounds new or improved. It sounds like Mariah acting like a youth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bu. Posted November 18, 2018 Share Posted November 18, 2018 The album is expected to do around 50k which is similar to her last album. I’m shocked there wasn’t a drop but that’s still good to me tbh. I’m so proud of her tbh. It’s been a good for her overall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So let me ask this, I'm assuming you have heard the entire album, you tell me what you loved hearing and I'll give it a listen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s a short album which I think was a great move. Giving Me Life is definitely a favourite. I’m not sure if you’re a rap fan but Slick Rick came out of hiding to rap on it haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
