Mariah Carey–despite idiotic postings elsewhere–is gearing up for her big new CD release.
Mariah feels so strongly about "Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel" that she's even re-hired the PR powerhouse that made her second-stage career such a success. She's back with Cindi Berger of PMK HBH. It was Berger who made her "Emancipation of Mimi" the biggest hit of Mariah's career. Smart move.
Of course, that means both Mariah and Whitney Houston are now being repped by the same PR company. PMK's Kristen Foster is handling Whitney with my old pal, Jill Fritzo.
"Memoirs" was scheduled for an August 25th release, then moved to September 15th. Now it's set for September 29th. If the regular Grammy deadline had been in place–September 30th–Mariah would have made it. But the unfortunate early deadline of August 31st cut her off. So she has some slack time to get "Memoirs" just right.
The first single from Mariah's CD will not be "Obsessed"–that was just a summer trifle, and it was a lot of fun. The real first official single is said to be a powerhouse ballad along the lines of "Vision of Love."

It's really hilarious when people are saying Obsessed flopped when it was a Top 11 hit and when most of their faves can't even get that big of a hit. Folks act like EVERY song of hers must go to #1, or else its a flop.
And Duca, PLEASE shutup. Gawd you're so annoying. Like my little sister or something

Why should I shut up? I'm not saying that "Obsessed" flopped, I'm just saying she should have promoted it more to hit #1. It's a hit for me!
I understand why the label pushes back the album, but I don't understand why giving up on the single? What are they expecting? Just releasing a song and with 1 single performance getting it to the top of the charts... I guess the timing wasn't really right for "Obsessed".
And now we're getting a cover song for a first single? Now that really sucks in my opinion. It will not go to #1. She better release another original song as a new single and change the tracklist for the album - can't believe she's using the same producers for so many tracks. I'm glad she's still working on the album, because the reviews weren't really promising.
