I know we will still hear the single somehow regardless of the situation tomorrow. This sets up alarms in my mind though if he is making bold announcements without having worked out the legalese before making said announcement what else is he dropping the ball on for this project. It is one problem true, but one problem after another problem adds up to one big problem. But, this is what Mariah wanted, so she has to live with the good and bad of him as her manager.

That letter was stupid no doubt. Mariah needs to keep a tighter reign on this aspect of her career. These types of things need to be run by her first. That said, I also agree with Recordman. This type of stuff happens all the time, we just don't hear about it, and we shouldn't have heard about this either. Regardless of what is happening, the public should believe everything is fine, until it isn't. You don't want people thinking about negative things like this going into tomorrow.
But it's not the end of the world. If everything ultimately goes off without a hitch tomorrow, no one will care anymore. Sometimes I feel like certain people want this project to fail, just so they can say I told you so. Not cool.

So 'this' is the big news? ??? Mariah Carey To Become A Cartoon Character On 'American Dad'Mariah Carey has been a No. 1 artist, a television host and even a movie star, and now she’s ready to tread in new territory — cartoons. Though the pop diva is no longer a judge on American Idol, Fox found a new place for her on the animated series American Dad. In the November 24 episode of the show, Carey will play a character that producers said is nothing like her normal glamorous self. “Mariah was great to have in the studio,” said executive producer Matt Weitzman. “She’d never done voiceover work before, but she was clearly so comfortable in front of the mike. She’s naturally funny.” In the episode Mariah Carey plays Laura, a football fan who invites Stan to join her at a tailgate. In reality, Laura turns out to be a daydream for Stan while he’s stuck with his in-laws for Thanksgiving Day. Though Carey is no longer on television sets every week with American Idol, she’s remained very popular with fans. This week she jumped to No. 24 on the Social 50, a list that ranks the most popular artists on YouTube, Vevo, Facebook, Twitter, SoundCloud, Wikipedia, Myspace, and Instagram. The list is put together by the analytics company Next Big Sound, a company that compiles shares, likes, and mentions. It was a Halloween picture of her kids, Monroe and Moroccan, that sent Mariah Carey soaring on the list. The picture was shared 112,000 times on Instagram and helped Carey’s new followers increased by 184 percent over the previous time frame. Aside from the American Dad appearance, Mariah Carey also has some new music on the way for fans. On Facebook she told fans that a new album will be on the way “sooner than you know it.” “There’s a lot of excitement that I’m going to reveal to you very soon, and sooner than you know it, you’re going to understand why but more than that, you’re going to feel what I’ve been feeling for the past- not three months- but three years,” she wrote. Mariah Carey has still not indicated when the album would be released. Her stint on American Dad can be seen November 24. Source |

Well, she can't and shouldn't handle every detail. It's reasonable of her to assume her manager would take care of certain things. The problem is that she has put her trust in JD. |

I didn't hear any rambling there? That high note is divine, though. I wonder what song it's from. |

Mariah also put her trust in Randy Jackson, and fired him. Mariah may have put her trust in JD, but history says he's got a short window in which to prove himself. I'm not worried. |

A few sources claimed that about the sample, actually. "Heartbreaker" does have the same bassline as "Fantasy" and the first line of the chorus has a melody like "Dreamlover," but apart from that I don't get the fuss. Me neither. And 'Heartbreaker's sample comes from 'Attack of the Name Game'. Exactly. I knew this in 1999, when the song came out, because I believe Mariah said it, and credited the writers of course, as she always does with her samples. I'm not sure why the reviewer didn't know. Dumb. |

Hey I'm not saying it wasn't a bad look, I just think too much energy is being put on it, it's the freaking 11th! We should be excited and unable to sleep more than brewing with concern over her bite-size bittersweet little manager, his big mouth, and his just "short" of illiteracy. On the bright side, I think they have been doing a great job at saturating the market again and have some pretty good promo coming together. My body and soul are READY!  |

mashable.com/2013/11/11/mariah-carey-the-art-of-letting-go-facebook/#:eyJzIjoidCIsImkiOiJfdnQ1c2F0NXF5MXA1OG9seGZiNjM1cXIyN3FfIn0Why Mariah Carey Planned a Facebook Party for 'The Art of Letting Go'Mariah Carey plays with a lump of lavender clay in New York City on Sunday, one day before she premieres "The Art of Letting Go" during a listening party on Facebook. The five-time Grammy winner is using the clay as a form of physical therapy; she had dislocated her shoulder, experienced nerve damage and fractured a rib in July at a video shoot for "#Beautiful." The injuries required her to wear arm slings, until now. "Finally the sling is gone," Carey tells Mashable. "I was like, 'If I have to take one more picture with the bling sling, I don't know what I'm going to do — it's not POW!" Despite still recovering, Carey is ready to debut "The Art of Letting Go" song at 11 a.m. ET on Monday to her 14 million Facebook fans, which she describes as her "Lambily" because her fans are called "Lambs." The listening party will include a Q&A. "Facebook is global, and I always have to keep in mind that my fans are all over the world," Carey emphasizes. "I wanted to make sure everybody was able to hear the song at the same time. To interact with the fans while they're listening to the song for the first time, it makes me happy. I like to see what my true fans are feeling. ... And I know this is a song that is from my heart, completely. It's a real moment for me, dahhhling." What Does the New Song and Album Sound Like?"The Art of Letting Go" is the title track from Carey's upcoming 14th studio album. It's a soaring ballad — with lyrics most anyone will find relatable — that shows off the hallmark range she's demonstrated since her first album arrived in 1990. Mashable got to listen to the song twice before Monday's Facebook premiere. Carey says this song is about the "ability to let go of things, people, emotions, situations, anything that has bogged you down for a long time." "I like to leave things very ambitious so my fans can interpret the songs in the way that they choose to, and that's why I never really say, 'Well this happened to me," she says. "Sometimes it's a true story, every single word of the song, and maybe this one is, too, but you'll never know." Rodney Jerkins produced the song, and Carey's new manager and longtime friend, Jermaine Dupri, chose to release "The Art of the Letting Go" as the next single because he says it has a message fans need to hear and take to heart. "They'll understand the direction of the album with this song," he hints, describing the ballad as "the 2014 version of 'Vision of Love.'" Carey admits "it's certainly not an exact replica of 'Vision of Love,'" but she did say it has the similar starkness and not-overproduced feel of the demo of "Vision of Love." "I really hope the fans like this, and I hope they're in a place where they can listen to the bottom end, the bass and the different parts of my voice," she says. "Sometimes when we just listen on our computers, you lose the low end of the record." Carey wants fans to pay close attention to one particular part in the song. "They have to listen very closely to the lyrics, especially the last two lines of the second verse," Carey notes. "I would like to have people apply that to their lives in any way they see fit. And that's why I wrote it. It was an organic moment that happened to also be timely and very real. There couldn't be a more real moment in my life for that line on this actual day — for reasons we won't get into. But to sum it up, it's about helping someone else get through their moment, while I'm getting through mine as the writer and the performer." When asked whether she can give details for her upcoming album, Carey stayed mum. "I can not. No, I mean, look. The problem is this: I really don't want to reveal things until I know the exact date for the album," Carey says. Dupri, however, gave another slight hint, taking into account input on social media. "I believe this record sets the tone for her fans, and I want them to understand that we pay attention to everything that they say and everything they send us online because the artists really care about the relationship with them," Dupri says. Why Facebook? This Is Not 'To Avoid Radio'Dupri, who previously teamed up with Carey on 2005's "We Belong Together,"conceptualized the Facebook listening party, and as Carey's new manager since October, he quickly got her on board with the Facebook partnership. "What we're doing is actually giving music directly to Facebook," Dupri tells Mashable by phone. "Most artists upload their music to Facebook using SoundCloud, YouTub and Vevo, but we are the first that are giving the music through the Facebook player." Musicians such as Jay Z ("Holy Grail") and Bruno Mars (""Gorilla") have premiered music videos via Facebook's video feature, but Carey is debuting only audio. He and Carey are excited to see the instant feedback from Facebook users, though, Dupri points out that this "exercise" isn't a ploy against traditional distribution routes. "I don't want people to think this is to avoid radio or any regular outlet; this is an exercise to do something that none of those other outlets can do, basically," Dupri adds. Carey agrees: "The global aspect and the immediate access and ability to interact with my fans during the song premiere are the main reasons we're doing this. The fact that Facebook is global, that is super important to me."
