This is everything. From start to finish.
Especially the last two minutes are giving me life indeed.

This is a cute jam with a throwback vibe.

A mood. One of the highlights of the tracks that had yet to be released.

One of my favorite things she has ever done. Terrific song.

The best song on the album. The best song she did in a long time actually. It’s haunting, great chorus, the outro is amazing. I’m in love.

I love this! It definitely puts you in your feelings. To quote her, I fucks with it! Slick Rick is the perfect collaboration for this track, but I could hear Nas on this just as easily too. That outro takes it to an even deeper mood.

Excellent. This is one of her best songs this decade.

I hear Lauryn Hill meets the 00s on this. One of her best. Oh and "Forever" ha impact on the guitar outro!  |

This was the track I was most excited about and it’s probably my favorite on the album. I’d kill for a video on the same level as “The Roof”!

Slick Rick was such a good choice, just the right amount of nostalgia (and that's really what this song is all about). Dev did his thing too, killer vibe track. That outro... wish it was about 10 minutes longer. And I love the lyrics, she really paints a picture with this one.

This is the song that would have hyped up some unknown Brooklyn girl had it surfaced out of nowhere. It’s epic, it’s current, it’s artistic, and it’s beautiful.
And while Dev is all over it, it’s inarguably all Mariah too. My favorite song from her in.. a decade? More?

The darker production is a highlight. I can’t compare this to anything on her catalogue which for nearly three decades in a career is impressive.

A masterpiece. Mariah should get a Grammy nomination on this song alone. This is one of those songs that transports you. It’s old school, it’s now, it’s euphoric, it’s everything.

I already mentioned how much I love this in the album thread, but yeah, it’s so fucking good. I can’t even remember the last time I was so into a Mariah song...maybe ‘I’ll Be Lovin’ U Long Time’?

Finally checked out the album, and this is really my second favorite after "The Distance." This is really, really good. I love how dark it sounds.

Favorite song on the album. A part of me wishes the outro was a separate track. Similar to "The Impossible (Reprise)”

This is a career highlight. It's old-school, dark, and a little haunting, but still a song you can jam to. She got it so right with this song.

This is great. Finally listening to the album and this is a standout. I would have led with this actually, this or “The Distance.”

I only have given the album one listen so far, but this was the standout other than the songs I already knew.
