Mariah Carey: "IT'S TIME" 👑

[jenglisbe]

I know it's Muni's song, but I really wanted a chorus where Mariah sings it alone in her chest voice. I was also really hoping they would do a recorded version of the ending Muni used in the great BET performance. Oh well, it's still nice, just could have been amazing.

[R.K.]

I wanted to love it, I really did. We needed 2005-2008 Mariah on this, and got ‘I Don’t’ Mariah instead… Still cute though.

[The Black Bird]

I love it, the song is not that great, but Mariah elevated it somehow. Just love it.

[Ernesto]

It's a gorgeous piece of R & B. I am quite pleased with this offering from Mariah and Muni.

[The Northern Star⭐]

Earworm City. And I just love the outro!

I hope she really does release some of those Angles Advocate tracks. I actually thought that album was a fan rumor back in the day. I was today years old to find out it was supposed to be a legit release.

[jenglisbe]

I guess #MC30 is finally back on lmao

Anyway, a new Billboard article/interview:

Additionally, Carey has sold 56.1 million albums in the U.S., according to Luminate, six of which have topped the Billboard 200. Her songs (as the sole billed lead artist) have drawn a colossal 85.4 billion in radio airplay audience and 9.4 billion official on-demand U.S. streams.

I sure hope it's true that she's had recent studio sessions with Raphael Saadiiq.

I know she said before too that it wasn't her song, which is another reason she doesn't care for it.

AH was missing something though. I actually really like Mariah's vocals on the track. But the production was uninteresting and demo-sounding. If they had added some additional instruments like the "trumpets" mentioned in the song it would have been better.

[JamaicaFunk²]

Like trumpets. Yes. That never made sense in the moment to me either.

[Coco Yu'Kneek- Saint]

She ATE that last 40 seconds

[eyeofthestorm]

The production on the 'Portrait' remix is sublime.

[adamalterlago]

Man this remix is EXACTLY what i’ve been missing. 😭

[lchaim]

The “Portrait” remix is the best song she’s put out since “Beautiful.” The production is sublime and she sounds wonderful. It reminds me of Black Coffee.

[Coco Yu'Kneek- Saint]

The 6, and 16 min version are sublime

[The Black Bird]

The 16 min version is just OUT OF THIS WORLD! This is the best thing she's released in a LONG time. Can't wait to have some wine and let myself go in this. 16 freaking minutes and not one second of boredom.

Wasn't there a version used in the film (or something) that was more orchestral? I remember preferring it.

I hope Rainbow 25 brings us a new song, or at least the full version of the "Rainbow Interlude."

And, yes, the "Portrait" remixes are excellent! They're reminiscent of the "CTTA" remixes in turning a ballad into a vibe (and a better song).

[Tea-why]

Omg those “Portrait” remixes!! Holy hell!

I doubt this will happen but I would LOVE for them to send this to radio. This is exactly what I want to hear from her and it sounds current.

[Ling-Ling]

Yeah, these are nice! I really hope she releases a physical single like she did for her last Xmas song.

[🌺T.A.T.I🌺]

Top 10 on iTunes

[sundaymorningguy]

I would love to see this treatment for other songs. I always wished Faded was a single, and I think it could have had some killer remixes.

[JamaicaFunk²]

Is Made for Me doing well on Spotify? I see on Apple Music it’s Mariah’s most streamed song now and Muni’s second most-streamed so maybe decent numbers. Can radio please switch versions too so Mariah can get back on the Hot 100?!

[divasummer]

I’m really liking the new “Portrait” remix.
A smooth dance groove.
Loving the new vocals.
The extended version is amazing.
I originally thought at 16+minutes it was going to be boring, but I loved it!
For some reason I thought this was some exclusive deal on her site or something????
This was such a surprise when I came into this thread.

[Me. I Am l!nk!nfan815...]

So glad someone said this out loud.

I’ve always said this, if Mariah had a bad b!tch attitude she wouldn’t be so disrespected.
