Infamous vocals (66,812) by Todd from Melbourne, Australia I'm gonna go against y'all and say that I don't mind it. It's leaps and bounds above Infinity. And the vocals actually sound like her current voice. She could actually sing this live without there being earpiece dramas. (Thursday 29 September 2016; 11:08)

Infamous (66,811) by Gee from U.S.A. (New York City) I got a chance to listen to the new song Infamous and I will say while I crave new Mariah music, but this is not it. I understand it has to fit into the show but it sounds very Memiors left overs with dated production. I know for sure that this is not where she is headed if she wants any chance of redeeming what is left of her legacy or any chance of making a decent showing on the charts with her next album. On a side note Jussie Smollett's voice is terrible and very whiney in my opinion and auto tune does not help. (Thursday 29 September 2016; 10:45)

The meet-and-greet guy (66,810) by Andrew from UK I'm glad he has some support from some friends on here. But let's be honest here in that he is more than likely a total whack job. I don't know him, admittedly, but following anybody that closely, when it is affecting your life that much that you are dropping (what is probably) all your money on it, spending so much time on it, making crazy-ass things like dolls that only children should be making, well, at worst, you aren't all there and at best, you have issues - you certainly are not normal and will have made people wary of you. If you then kick off or even act a little temperamental, people will x10 it, because you already had them on edge. So, I'm glad he has support, but I changed my (brief) opinion on this. Just because he's (alarmingly) throwing money at Mariah to hang out regularly for a few moments, seeming to (alarmingly) need her to qualify his existence, doesn't mean he should get special treatment. The person who pays ten times shouldn't have exceptions made for them over the person who pays one time. It sounds like anyone who knows him should have a word with him and try to help him figure out what's wrong and lead a normal, grown-up life. (Thursday 29 September 2016; 9:44)

The lesser MC (66,809) by Andrew from UK Miley Cyrus [censored] marketing tool based solely upon the premise of "Yeah, we do what we want, cos we, like, do what we want 'n' stuff." Which is fantastic if what you want is to act like a [censored]. Now I really don't go in for teenage-fangirling every time someone criticises Mariah, but Miley Cyrus is beyond irritating. She made a lot of money because of a television show made for young teenage girls. It will be interesting to see if she can carry on making money with the flatulence once the generation to which she appeals finally grows up (which has probably got to be some time around, um, now).

Listen to new track (66,808) by Anonymous from It's ok but I'm not wowed. Of course I'll support it. (Thursday 29 September 2016; 8:30)

Infamous (66,807) by George Golden from UK Just heard the new song. It's just bad and dated. Finger snapping, strained vocals. Really Mariah? (Thursday 29 September 2016; 8:08)

Infamous (66,806) by Martyn from England, UK Terrible. Dated. Auto-tuned. Just awful. Praying this isn't an indication of what the album is going to sound like. (Thursday 29 September 2016; 8:03)

Still lamenting "Infamous" (66,805) by ZachSingsMariah from USA Speaking of MIAM and single choices, I still believe "You Don't Know What To Do" and "Dedicated" were two of the biggest missed single opportunities of MC's career. Both songs are absolutely magical, and would have been very marketable and radio-friendly. Both had true hit potential, yet it was wasted. I honestly cringe at many of the career choices Mariah has made the last several years, especially since Stella came into the picture. I think "Infamous" is further evidence that Mariah is surrounded, and maybe even deluded, by "yes" people who do not know how to steer her in a direction that adequately uses her talents. Still, I am excited to see how she does as Kitty on Empire next week. (Thursday 29 September 2016; 7:56)

Re: "Looking In" by a Filipino lamb (66,782) (66,804) by this_is_qhm from the Philippines Pinoy lambs are very active. They schedule get-togethers (translation: Mariah karaoke nights) quite regularly and I would honestly join them if I didn't live so far away. This singer I believe calls herself Petals, and evidently, she's really good at what she does. And this is pretty much just a warm-up for her. Makes me so proud to be a lamb and a Filipino one at that. (Thursday 29 September 2016; 7:53)

Miley's comments (66,803) by this_is_qhm from the Philippines Truth: her and Demi's comments represent how this generation perceives Mariah Carey to a certain extent. Meanwhile, I'm just gonna sit here and not even bother to bring out the popcorn because this issue is bound to end up like all the other disses that have come before - they won't really matter anyway. I swear, a year from now, I know for sure I won't be even saying, "Hey remember that time when Miley dissed Mariah?" Imma be more like, "Oh yeah, that actually happened. It gave us some laughs." And now here I am barely recalling what Demi even said back then, which was just like two months ago. Exactly. (Thursday 29 September 2016; 7:49)

Infamous first impression (66,802) by Shezz from Pk Mehh. It's very Empire. (Thursday 29 September 2016; 7:22)

Infamous (66,801) by RibbonB from USA Wow. Based on the preview of next week's Empire, "Infamous" will be fire. Mariah's voice is full and powerful and the beat is jamming. It seems like a slow burner. I'm impressed from the 5 second snippett. Whoo hoo. Go Mimi. (Thursday 29 September 2016; 7:13)

Re: Mariah's meet and greet disaster-nadia (66,773) (66,800) by 123 from USA Well I guess that would explain why her security team was so comfortable speaking to him that way. Maybe the whole situation got out of hand. I felt really bad for him because of the money he spent but it sounds like he is in close connection to Mariah anyway. Nice guy to give you a great ticket and merch for free. (Thursday 29 September 2016; 7:11)

Infamous (66,799) by 123 from USA So the song is ok. At least her voice doesn't sound autotune and she stuck to her mid range. Way better than Infinity. Glad it's not a lead single and it will tie me over for now until her new stuff comes out. Listen here. (Thursday 29 September 2016; 6:59)

Infamous (66,798) by Stacey from USA After the debacle that was Infinity (sorry, but it really was that bad) we get Infamous. This song restored my faith that Mariah can still sing good music. The only part that bugged me was Jussie's overuse of the autotune. Anyways, enjoy. (Thursday 29 September 2016; 6:27)

Re: Miley vs Mariah (66,788) (66,797) by Stacey from USA Miley who? (Thursday 29 September 2016; 6:22)

Infamous (66,796) by Licia from USA Ok here are my thoughts on the song. I like it. It's not the best song ever, but it's an improvement over Crapfinity. I'm a realist so I knew not to expect 96 vocals with 1990-2003 lyrics. For the purpose it was recorded for it's a decent song. (Thursday 29 September 2016; 6:21)

Infamous sounds like... (66,795) by Ty from USA An Usher song. (Thursday 29 September 2016; 5:54)

Infamous premier (66,794) by Haiji Toro from USA For those whom may not already know, you can nown listen to "Infamous" on Mariah's FB page. (Thursday 29 September 2016; 5:11)

Tough love for MC (66,793) by ZachSingsMariah from USA So the much-anticipated song "Infamous" from "Empire" has now been released. And I am going to be honest I think this is yet another low point for Mariah. This song reminds me of "Triumphant" in that she continues to be the feature artist on her own songs. When I saw her in Vegas earlier this month, she alluded to her plans for a big comeback. Well, I am sorry to say this is not it. The hook is non-existent, her vocals are too processed, and that auto-tune rap verse is straight out of 2006. Quite frankly, it is boring. I love Mariah with all my heart, but she has not put out a good single since #Beautiful. (Notice I said single; I loved the MIAM album as a whole.) #B was a brilliant duet. "Infamous", on the other hand, is already among the least memorable records I have ever heard from her. Lambs, let's not blindly pretend that this is up-to-par with what we should expect from an artist as brilliant as Mariah. (Thursday 29 September 2016; 5:09)

Infamous (66,792) by Myles from CT, USA Absolutely terrible. Flat vocals, terrible terrible terrible vocals. The auto tone? Absolutely terrible part 2. (Thursday 29 September 2016; 4:54)

Re: Miley vs Mariah (66,788) (66,791) by Dennis from Miami, FL It's like Miley has nothing to hide. At least in the "ample assets" department. (Wednesday 28 September 2016; 23:39)

Re: Learning from mistakes (66,784) (66,790) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Ya but her team can only do that if they stop vacationing and actually work. Bey's team is not out and about following her all over the world on vacations with their entire family and extended family. Stella on the other hand is too busy posing on other people's private jets, pretending it's hers to really sit and chalk out a game plan to get Mariah's image in check. (Wednesday 28 September 2016; 22:04)

Re: Now Miley is attacking Mariah (66,768) (66,789) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Miley has already been inducted into the "I don't know her" hall of shame. Once people go there, they officially lose out any potential of topping charts. Demi's "musical efforts" went completely unnoticed even after it was heavily promoted. Ariana still didn't get a #1 hit even after she basically was all over the place and her recent album didn't get much attention. JLo is not even considered to be a "singer". So ya Miley should have stuck to people of her own level but she "reached for the stars" (sung a la "Triumphant"). (Wednesday 28 September 2016; 21:52)

Miley vs Mariah (66,788) by Edward from USA Stop shading and going against Miley Cyrus. These lambs are so touchy. Mariah is definitely about what she wears. On the contrary, if you look at Miley riding on her wrecking ball, it's clear she's not about what she wears, she's deeper than that. She's so deep they want people to see her, naked. And besides, 20 years from now, a whole new generation will be "twerking" thanks tor her and her horns. As for Mariah, she'll be remembered for a no so popular Christmas tune, 18 mere #1's songs, the voice of a generation and just 200,000,000 sold. If Mariah twerked, she would definitely be more inspired. I'm sorry, but Miley win this one. (Wednesday 28 September 2016; 21:25)
