I’m shocked you didn’t know #beautiful. It was one of the biggest songs of 2013. It broke the record for most times a song was played on radio in a single day.
This was THE ALBUM the year we had our daughter. From the early months of pregnancy to when she was born and the first 2 years of her life. This was our car album. My wife has become a full on lamb at this point. This album special to us as a couple. MC is truly the soundtrack of my life from age 17 to now.
I still remember the moment I heard He Art Of Letting Go for the first time. It was a Facebook release and I played it on FB on repeat. Loved it so much.
Remember many of the lyrics are directed to Nick (and their separation)....this is the separation album. I really like You don't know what to do, gives me I'm that chick vibes and get me in such good mood! I love the closing, the line "Go to Mimi on your contacts, Press DELETE"....genius!! And that final track, is for us the fans, so we really loved that one. Unpopular opinion: I love all covers by Mariah, except for this version of One more try. I hope we get a new album this year, it's been 6 years already (already OMG) since Caution, which I loved: GTFO, With you, Caution, A no no, Giving me life, and Portrait. You will love those! Thanks for sharing.
I'm guessing caution is next then The rarities? Then the remixes? Because you have to do the remixes to truly understand why she is the Queen of remixes.
Another album I feel not enough people had a true appreciation for. Non-vocalists do not have an inkling of a clue how difficult Mariah's songs are with the runs, riffs, key changes, hitting 3 different octaves in a single lyric, multilayering her own harmonies, and the list goes on. One More Try- flawless cover, Nostalgia Ln back to 7th grade, Camouflage is otherworldly taking you to a place that belngs only to you, The Art of Letting Go.... Deeeep cut that's empowering and the elongated belting with a clarity that resonates from her own space of vulnerability from heartbreak and betrayal.... I love revisiting her albums and the little moments that i realize i havent heard a particular song in a hot minute & I find myself right back in the same ecatatic moment and emotion as the first time I heard it. Good stuff Trey, good stuff!! I'd like to see your reaction to some AI covers actually. 2 in particular which are Mariah Carey-Only One Road (2003) and a Tamia song, If I were You Btw, your reaction to Art of Letting Go... is everything! And a true testament to the raw power and vocal influence Mariah still has. Thank you for another great vid.
There was so much turmoil happening in Mariah’s life at this time, and truly a lot of the reason this album was delayed is because she was not ready for people to know the divorce was coming. I mean as soon as we lambs heard it, we knew the divorce was happening, however this is easily her most personal album since butterfly. This album fully tells a story of her marriage and life at the time, you really have to listen the lyrics. It’s a masterpiece.
I remember the photo they took of her out to lunch w someone the week after the album dropped and she just looked sad like “it’s over and where do i go?”
Best reaction ever!! MIAM deserves so much more love! This album is a hidden gem and so deserved to go platinum or even gold in these times. Gone are the days….of albums selling. Mariah is an album legend!
In another release of the album somewhere, she put 'America The Beautiful'' instead of the spoken outro. And the studio version of America... is amazing.
I bought this album and bought a few bottles of bubbly. I told my mom to come float with me in the pool and tan while we sip and listen. Midway through, I got off my floatie and said to my mom, “She is about to leave Nick!” Lol😂
A friend used “You Don’t Know What To Do” in his instagram story several months ago and that’s how I “discovered” it. He told me not to feel badly because most people slept on it and missed out. I had “Camouflage” on repeat for DAYS! This is my favorite album of her’s since “Emancipation”.
Another great reaction! I'm a huge Lamb, and as many times as I've listened to all of these albums that you've reacted to, I notice things I hadn't noticed before whenever you offer your perspective. Keep it up!
I became a Mariah fan when I watched her in American Idol an then started to listen her songs. This album was the first to be released after I was a fan. I really liked it, but other people were so negative about it. Over the years I kinda forgot about it cause have my favorites but watching your review reminded me of how good this album actualy is.
I love your journey through Mariahs discography!!!! I happen to love all of her albums for different reasons. I was alive for each of her album releases and can remember specific times in my life that each album represents for me. I know a lot of Lambs don’t really care for the vocal production on the album and felt it had a less natural sound. Other than that I haven’t really heard about the songs themselves. I am excited to see your reaction to Caution. There are some great songs that are really new sounding and some that have a nostalgic feeling. I think you’ll really enjoy it!!!
thank you for creating these videos. I feel like im having a slumber party because you are honest, fun, and the friend i need right now. I am a huge lamb and I look forward to your post's. Imjcurrently in a health an welness rehab after a THANKFUL FAILD SUICICIDE ATTEMPT. Thank god above. but your vidieos really help. Hearts and love!!!!❤🧡💛💚💙💜
"All hail and bow to Mariah Carey, The Queen of Divas, Protector of the vocal skills from the realm, Archiduchess of Vocal range/registers, Empress of agility, The unmatched, The Mellisma mother, The Goddess of Songwriting and producing, The one often imitated, but never duplicated, The embodiment of pure success",. My simpleton ears are not worthy of your talent but a simple sung phrase will be enough to heal me for all eternity.
Another great reaction. It is such a shame that this album is so slept on. It definitely deserves more respect. Maybe Thirsty can get revived on tiktok like some of her other songs have. I know I have said it before, but when you listen to Caution, please add the track Runway which was only on Japanese version and then later quietly released here. And when you listen to a No-No listen to the music video version, she just added a tiny bit at the end, but that tiny bit needs to be heard.
@@whitepaper5241 yeah. Was that the second remix. The second one was better than the first. But I wasn't referring to the remixes. Just the version of the song from the music video because she added the whistles at the end in the video.
Favorites: Cry, Dedicated, You're Mine, Money, One More Try, The Art of Letting Go. This album was delayed I believe, not sure why but I have some thoughts on it. Triumphant came out in 2012 and was, I think, supposed to be the first single, but her team never came outright and said it was. That song bombed, so I think they were trying to get a feel of what the album was going to do. Then The Art of Letting Go was released as a single and also flopped. So they delayed the album while they came up with a new campaign and song to be the first single, which was Beautiful. Wise choice, because that song became a top 20 hit. But still the album underperformed. Not one of her best albums, but it has some good stuff on it.
Tre, I love your personality and expressions reacting to Mariah’s songs! Your emotions are as great as the songs! Stevie Wonder comments made me laugh. You could have played Jack on Will and Grace! ❤
Someone had a theory that the track list could also be interpreted in reverse with Cry. being the “last”track. Puts a very different spin on the album, especially in light of the impending divorce.
Such a great album. 2 things: I can’t believe you left off the second half of "Heavenly (No Ways Tired / Can't Give Up Now)" cuz it’s amazing! You should listen to "Betcha Gon' Know" (I hear ya) cuz I can’t believe there wasn’t an accompanying black and white animation video with drops of color throughout like when MC says… Though the lights were low I could see you both In a lover's silhouette And my heart stood still I was froze right there Staring down at her red dress I can seriously direct the video in my head 😂
Talk about Thirsty! It came out as a tease track for the album and felt very personal, but at the time she had barely started to leave Nick, or at least us fans didn't know much about their split. So many cuts from the album feels personal and deeply emotional, and yes, angry. Mariah channeling her life experiences is her best!
The fact that Mariah could sing this with her broken shoulder/arm is astounding and we all know Mariah has to sing with her hands and arms. 😂 I'm glad she has healed well since then tho. ❤
This is a very underrated and often overlooked album. It incorporates a lil bit of everything from different places. It shouldn't work ,but I guess music didn't get the memo that Mariah was doing it anyway 🤭🤭😂. I'm not that big on Money w/Fab (btw Fugazz more commonly used here in the Northeast, especially NYC area) The one track that has stuck w/me the most is , Heavenly/No Ways Tired. If you even get a chance to Look up Mariah singing, You & I , by Stevie W, to Stevie W ,Live
If you LOVE You're Mine (Eternal), you should hear a 90s remix of the song! It's even MORE fire!!!!!!!! ❤🔥❤🔥❤🔥❤🔥❤🔥❤🔥❤🔥 I listen to both versions regularly, but I LOVE the 90s remix. Since you love "It's A Wrap", then you should listen to the official sped up version on Mariah's RUclips channel. The sped up version, don't ask me how, is EVEN BETTER than the original version!
I love how you love and enjoy Mariahs music as I do!!! And you love to sing like I do, so I bet we would get a long well!!! You crack me up!! 😂😂😂 But I have to say: Stalkers, I know "Beautiful" is with a guy named Miguel and I know Miguel means Michael!!! Hey now, I am not saying with liking this song that I think the stalker Michaels are beautiful!!! No, no, no... Not any song I am liking is about my stalkers... Stop this Bullshit!!
I really like this album but I think the production is kinda wild in some of the songs 😭 it just felt like so many things at once. I prefer the way Caution was produced. But soooo many bops.

It's my favourite of hers, remember hearing it when it first came out before I even knew who she was 🤧
It's just sad that it didn't enter top 10
omg that song was that big?? and it didn’t even reach the top 10??

I love you, Mariah

Yes do the remixes and Tokyo Dome concert

Thank you for another great vid.
Faded needs a good pair of earphones to appreciate her voice on how she rides the beat and her her singing those heartwrenching lyrics!

Thank you for reviewing this! Waiting for your Caution review next ❤
Yayyyy🎉 this album was underrated!
MIAM... TEC is a total MASTERPIECE!
I love listening to Faded with headphones. I can not listen to that song without headphones😅
I loved this! And this album for me has been on repeat since its release! Thanks for highlighting this masterpiece!
Likewise
Best reaction ever!! MIAM deserves so much more love! This album is a hidden gem and so deserved to go platinum or even gold in these times. Gone are the days….of albums selling. Mariah is an album legend!

Make It Look Good.....should have been a single!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i loooooooooove that song
I bought this album and bought a few bottles of bubbly. I told my mom to come float with me in the pool and tan while we sip and listen. Midway through, I got off my floatie and said to my mom, “She is about to leave Nick!” Lol😂
I absolutely love this 😂❤🎉
To me this album is a welcome mix of the personal side of charmbracelet with the of the bops of the emancipation of Mimi charmieXMimi
Exactly!
Thirsty needs to become VIRAL. Yes, it’s the obsessed of this album!
A friend used “You Don’t Know What To Do” in his instagram story several months ago and that’s how I “discovered” it. He told me not to feel badly because most people slept on it and missed out. I had “Camouflage” on repeat for DAYS! This is my favorite album of her’s since “Emancipation”.

Yes, same for me!! After every reaction I go back to the album and have a new appreciation for certain parts!
Also, the “Carey like Mariah” in Dedicated is a sample of a song by Wu Tang Clan. They mentioned her before she did the remix with ODB.
#beautiful has a remix which I love and it was also meant to have a house remix which she Never got to finish but it sounded so gooood 😭
It's one my favourite remixes! Banger!

This album is way underrated by the lambily. It’s 100x better than caution
This is a hot take… 👀
Both albums can be good.
I agree to the extent that there are more songs on this album that I actively listen to more than cautions offerings.
thank you for creating these videos. I feel like im having a slumber party because you are honest, fun, and the friend i need right now. I am a huge lamb and I look forward to your post's.

This album!!!!!!! For the nostalgia! Thirsty alone!!!!!!! It could've been a single and easily go to #1!!!
This album was the best album since emancipation
21:17 I knew there was going be a reaction to that word! 😂😂

Tbh, A No No with Shawni is the best version of the song. Shawni's verses were so good. I don't like B.I.G's verse.

#Beautiful Remix with Jeezy and the Spanglish version #Hermosa along with the You’re Mine remix with Trey Songz are must listen additions.
Can you please react and review her memoir with the audio book please? It’s sooooo good
That’s 11 hours long lmfao
Dedicated is my favorite song from the album. Feels like you are there with her in the studio!

@@codywalsh2075 the Vintage Throwback Mix
@@TreMcLeod_ ooh so you've had a little taste of what her remixes are like 👀
They also leaked Thirsty in there. The whole release management (is not a word) was a mess. But the album is great.
She dragged nick on this album LOL
my version doesn't have that outro, but i have a live version of Lullaby of Birdland
Tre, I love your personality and expressions reacting to Mariah’s songs! Your emotions are as great as the songs! Stevie Wonder comments made me laugh. You could have played Jack on Will and Grace! ❤
Someone had a theory that the track list could also be interpreted in reverse with Cry. being the “last”track. Puts a very different spin on the album, especially in light of the impending divorce.
This literally one of my favorites from her … top three on rotation
Thirsty also always reminded me of Paris. Both were produced by Hit-Boy!
Such a great album.
2 things: I can’t believe you left off the second half of "Heavenly (No Ways Tired / Can't Give Up Now)" cuz it’s amazing!
You should listen to "Betcha Gon' Know" (I hear ya) cuz I can’t believe there wasn’t an accompanying black and white animation video with drops of color throughout like when MC says…
Though the lights were low
I could see you both
In a lover's silhouette
And my heart stood still
I was froze right there
Staring down at her red dress
I can seriously direct the video in my head 😂
Omg pls react to the impromptu performance of the art of letting go on jimmy fallon if you get a chance. Such a great moment.

Make It Look Good and Camouflage are arguably of the best works of her entire career.
Its on my top 3. Faded is on my number 5
You're mine (eternal)
Is EXQUISITE ❤🎉😊
MAKE IT LOOK GOOD 🎉
The fact that Mariah could sing this with her broken shoulder/arm is astounding and we all know Mariah has to sing with her hands and arms. 😂 I'm glad she has healed well since then tho. ❤
hoping for the Remixes album reaction too..
I was wondering (and hoping) you would rank all of MC's albums once you hear Caution? Thoughts?
This is a very underrated and often overlooked album. It incorporates a lil bit of everything from different places. It shouldn't work ,but I guess music didn't get the memo that Mariah was doing it anyway 🤭🤭😂.
I'm not that big on Money w/Fab (btw Fugazz more commonly used here in the Northeast, especially NYC area)
The one track that has stuck w/me the most is , Heavenly/No Ways Tired.
If you even get a chance to Look up Mariah singing, You & I , by Stevie W, to Stevie W ,Live
the remix of the You're mine eternal with Trey Songz is also a bop
Thirsty is ahead of its time, a waste hit
I think you are simply not old enough to appreciate a good mid tempo song. But I was pleasantly surprised that you recognized Stevie right away.
Hi please do reaction to Caution album
Coming next!
@@TreMcLeod_ can't wait! Let us know what you think about A no no, 8th Grade, Giving me life and Caution!
Ahhh please do reaction to the deluxe edition with bonus track Runway

Track 16 the original is better anyways.
Fyi Mary Mary is not the originals of Can’t Give Up Now… i think James Cleveland was the original
You Don’t Know What To Do is the only song worth listening to 🤷🏻♀️
Nope. All album is great. Not Mimi material but great
My least fav album from her, overproduction.
