Mariah Sticks To Her Sound: E=MC2 Review

Wednesday, May 7, 2008

After staging a fairly astonishing comeback with 2005’s The Emancipation of Mimi, an album that launched two US number one singles and sold ten million copies worldwide, who can blame Mariah Carey for sticking to a winning formula? ‘Touch My Body’, the trailer single from album number eleven, E=MC², rides the same silky-smooth, mid-tempo vibe [...]
