Description
A small intake of breath before the last chorus of H.A.T.E.U. says a lot about where Mariah Carey took Memoirs Of An Imperfect Angel. Leaning into The-Dream and Tricky Stewart’s late-2000s R&B palette, this 2LP lets her stacked harmonies and conversational storytelling unfurl without crowding. Betcha Gon’ Know (The Prologue) plays like a whispered confessional, all side-eye strings and pinpoint ad-libs, while Obsessed still snaps with that dry clap and sly vocal doubles.
On this pressing the space around her voice opens up and the low end sits deeper, so the small details feel intentional rather than busy. Sequencing breathes better across four sides, which suits the album’s simmer-and-swoon pacing. Angels Cry and It’s a Wrap benefit most, the former’s melisma floating cleanly, the latter riding a buttery mid-tempo pocket.
File it next to the sleek side of Beyoncé’s I Am… Sasha Fierce era, but the difference here is Mariah’s diaristic focus and producer-as-duet-partner chemistry. If you prefer ordering from home, you can buy Mariah Carey records online with us. For Melbourne shelves that lean R&B, this sits comfortably between turn-of-the-decade slow-burners and modern torch songs.
Quietly confident and surprisingly cohesive, Memoirs rewards front-to-back plays rather than cherry-picking singles. Buy Mariah Carey records online today or visit us in Preston to grab a copy.
