Cover art (109,917) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter I like black and white too but I can't explain it, there's just something different that comes to mind when it comes to distinction between an album cover and a regular shoot. She had many amazing black and white covers - to name a few - #1's , Fantasy/Daydream, ISB, ABMB, E=MC2. They all were statement photos. The 2 versions we got so far look more like it's for an auto biography or a jewelry/beauty magazine ad. It doesn't have that iconic feeling that she's here to slay. Oh well I hope the songs make up for it. (Tuesday 22 July 2025; 12:37) this is a reply to message 109,915

Cover art (109,915) by MusicfanJ from Germany I like the album cover. But I love black and white pics in general, so classic. (Tuesday 22 July 2025; 11:59)

Physical copy or... (109,916) by MusicfanJ from Germany Just buy a cd player with a sound system for your home. It's still the best for music lovers. Luckily I drive an old Ford that has a cd-player, but I usually listen to the radio while driving. But at home the cd-player really is every day in use. Anyway I'm sure the album will be available as an mp3-version on Amazon. What I love about Amazon is that when you buy the CD you mostly get the mp3 songs for download. So you have "both worlds".

Physical copy or... (109,912) by Zachariah from Croatia Guys, am I weird for buying a physical copy although I don't have anywhere to play it (car is brand new with no cd player and at home, I don't have any cd players)? (Tuesday 22 July 2025; 11:38)

Cover art (109,904) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Update - they uploaded a clearer photo of the Amazon version and yes not feeling it. She melts into the dark instead of standing out. (Tuesday 22 July 2025; 03:25)

Physical copy or... (109,914) by Dove from United States I don't think so. I also buy physical copies of my favorite albums. (Tuesday 22 July 2025; 11:59) this is a reply to message 109,912

Webmaster request (109,913) by MusicfanJ from Germany It was very mean and vulgar that someone called him hating a. h. I would be shocked too for a minute, but for me that's kindergarten talking. I wouldn't take it serious. It's fine that everyone has a different taste, but no one should fear to be named like that, just because of his thoughts. I hope he comes back here, but I doubt it.

Webmaster request (109,909) by Lambi from USA Brad, this is just welcome to the internet in 2025. You just have to develop thicker skin. You sound innocent though. "Please delete my account, profile and postings" sounds like when someone breaks up with their significant other and asks them to return all the gifts they gave. I actually think you are genuinely a nice puppy that no one should be kicking. Everyone be nice to Brad. (Tuesday 22 July 2025; 06:01)

Here For It All / Paul McCartney cover (109,911) by Dove from United States I love Paul McCartney. I wonder what song it will be. (Tuesday 22 July 2025; 11:29) this is a reply to message 109,902

Here For It All / Paul McCartney cover (109,902) by BFF from United States Looks like she might be covering a song by Wings, Paul and Linda McCartney's band in the 70s? Can you imagine Mariah singing "Live and Let Die"? (Tuesday 22 July 2025; 02:58)

Cover art (109,910) by Dove from United States The only thing I don't love is that the top of her head is cut off. (Tuesday 22 July 2025; 11:26)

Amazon CD pre-order (109,908) by Max from Germany The days of bonus tracks are over. I mean, everything's digital these days anyway. What's the point? Most listeners don't have CD players anymore. If Amazon or JP have exclusive tracks on HFIA, then please use familiar material and not new songs. I also hope that we actually get 11 new tracks and that there isn't "Yes, and" or "Made for Me" on the album. I'm really happy that it's happening and wish MC all the best for the album. Sugar Sweet keeps getting stuck in my head and I'm also excited for the title track. There was The Voice again. (Tuesday 22 July 2025; 05:46) this is a reply to message 109,900

Amazon CD pre-order (109,900) by John from USA There's an Amazon Exclusive CD and a regular CD version for HFIA. I wonder if the Amazon Exclusive will have an additional track or two. (Tuesday 22 July 2025; 02:24)

Cover art (109,907) by Lambi from USA She probably wanted it to coincide with the black and white Daydream cover art. 30th anniversary this year by the way, which I assume she has unreleased trinkets already planned out to bless us with. Daydream is special because it's her most influential. I agree she could've slayed way harder and made it black and white no matter what. But maybe it's an "instant grit" cover art, just like how she had those teaser reel videos for Type: Dangerous. I'm pretty sure she'll change it to be honest. Mariah listens to fans. She changed the initial art work for TEOM when lambs brought up it looked like Beyoncé. Lol. (Tuesday 22 July 2025; 05:41) this is a reply to message 109,893

Cover art (109,893) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Ok don't hate me please, I don't want to be negative Nancy but I'm not a huge fan of the cover art. It doesn't scream I am coming for your wigs Beatles haha. It doesn't scream Billboard count your days bish. The cover art is very pretty but it's something more like for a greatest hits album or "the love songs" collection. It's not memorable like TEOM or even catchy like Caution. Also maybe like a beauty magazine cover shoot. The way they posed the era starting with she wants to get 2 more #1's the album cover doesn't match the vibe. I hope we get some alternate versions too with a more fierce look. Also someone said a few posts back she needs a new stylist. I agree. We also need her out of these huge diamond necklaces and diamond bracelet stacks, they are very early 2000s vibe and it ages her a bit which is crazy because she is at another beauty peak. If she wants to pull in the number she needs the streaming audience that is mostly younger. (Monday 21 July 2025; 22:20)

Here For It All (109,906) by Lighty from China Actually Daydream was released in the US on October 3rd, 1995. The 9/26 date was when it was released in Taiwan. The good old days when albums/singles were released on different dates in different regions. (Tuesday 22 July 2025; 05:20) this is a reply to message 109,899

Here For It All (109,899) by Stacey from USA I love the title. It speaks to her amazing career and all those events (good and bad) that have shaped who she is today. Did you guys know Here For It All has the same release date as Daydream? That can't be a coincidence, right? 9/26 is also my daughter's 17th birthday. So of course in her honor I'll be buying Mariah's new album, lol. Amazon has exclusive cover art releasing on July 23rd. As a Tommy era fan, I'm not stressing about anything. I always hope for the best. (Tuesday 22 July 2025; 01:56)

Here For It All (109,905) by Shezz from Pk Stacey I wouldn't call you a "Tommy Era only" fan. Key word being "only". You show love for her all the time and you never partake in any bashing. You're a wonderful person and wow you have a 17 year old. I too fell in love with her during the Tommy era and I will never deny those were her best years, but I still look forward to what she releases now. It is what it is. Here for it all. Pun intended. I love the album title and the cover art, although it feels more like a photograph you'd generally find in the album liners than on the cover. It's very reminiscent of a magazine shoot she did a few years ago, I think for W. (Tuesday 22 July 2025; 03:42) this is a reply to message 109,899

Cover art (109,897) by Haiji from United States I actually agree with this Mimi L. I kept thinking it was an old compilation album cover, like The Ballads or Playlist until I checked and was wrong lol. I just scrolled through IG and the user "itsallaboutMariahcarey" posted a few minutes ago and new album cover with the caption reading "Leaked". It was an all black backdrop and her sitting in an all black ensemble with straight long blond hair. Not sure if I like either cover tbh. (Tuesday 22 July 2025; 01:25)

Here For It All / Paul McCartney cover (109,896) by Pedro from Brazil I saw the track credits of the album that is going around on X, and one of the songs was solely written by Paul McCartney and his wife. I'm guessing Mariah’s covering it. Which song do you think it is? Plus, The Clark Sisters are on a track. Duet maybe? I can’t wait. (Tuesday 22 July 2025; 00:52)

Cover art (109,901) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter I kept hearing about this supposed alternate cover but never found it. Thanks for giving the IG handle. It's very hazy so I can't really tell, but yes still looks like a regular photoshoot kinda cover. I was hoping for something fierce, even if not full body then atleast half. Mariah has been looking like her Einstein era I thought she would want to show it off and no one does a power stance like Mariah. (Tuesday 22 July 2025; 02:31) this is a reply to message 109,897

Here For It All (109,898) by Haiji from United States Looking forward to hearing what Shensea and Bryson Tiller bring to the album. I'm thinking she's remaking a Paul M. song as a thank you for not getting upset when she beats The Beatles' record lol it would be wild if she actually beat the record or even tie it with that song but I doubt that.

Here For It All (109,891) by Bobby A from United States We have some dedicated Lambs on X doing all of the in depth research. I think the goal of HFIA was to collaborate with new songwriters and producers a genre blending album. Here is what I have found out on X: 1. New producers and songwriters - Roget Chahayed (Jack Harlow's First Class and Miguel's Skywalker), Bongo ByTheWay (Keyshia Cole's Vault and Jasmine Sullivan's Girl Like Me), Alissia Beneveriste (Mary J. Blige's Heart Without Heartbreak from her album Good Morning Gorgeous), Harv, Felisha Fury, Luke Milano, Kehlani, Mikkai Wesley Miller Rae Khalil, and Anderson .Paak. 2. Sugar Sweet ft. Kehlani and Shenseea - 3:42 song length - 07/25 3. The Stereotypes and Luke Milano have track 1. So you know it must be an uptempo banger. 4. The Clark Sisters collaboration is on track 10. I am disappointed that Twinkie Clark wasn't a part of the writing session. Hopefully, she is singing on the song. Mariah and Daniel Moore produced it. 5. There is a Paul and Linda McCartney cover. Maybe it's their song "Dear Boy". 6. There still may be track 12 on the U.S. CD and vinyl variants and track 13 on the Japanese edition. (Monday 21 July 2025; 21:10)

Type: Dangerous (109,895) by TJ from Norway And Without You sound so much better on the radio. I miss the days when she released that music. Her voice was like an angel. (Tuesday 22 July 2025; 00:46) this is a reply to message 109,877

Type: Dangerous (109,877) by MusicfanJ from Germany Today on "my" station they were playing "Without you". It still amazes me, when I hear the first few seconds of the piano and then the magic happens. The radio-man said an absolute classic and wonderful version by Mariah. So true. (Monday 21 July 2025; 16:56)

Here for all of it (109,894) by T from USA I love the photos, I love the title. It feels like a continuation of her book. It's the first body of work since she told all, and since most of her family have passed. I think this will be very cathartic. She's never been so free. (Tuesday 22 July 2025; 00:00)
