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.

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.

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

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

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.

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. |

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

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.

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.

If they had added some additional instruments like the "trumpets" mentioned in the song it would have been better. 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). |

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.

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

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.

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?!

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.

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.
