May 29, 2023Mariah é sinônimo de qualidade e sucesso. Mesmo depois de quase 20 anos de carreira ela ainda conseguiu chegar ao topo dos charts com esse álbum coeso e moderno.
-
Jan 6, 2023Muito bom o álbum, uma obra muito lÃrica, muito coeso, no lirismo muito suave, um tom suave das melodias, uma sonoridade incrivel.
-
Nov 4, 2022The Follow up to the hugely successful "Emancipation" Mariah finds a mellow R&B Groove and doesn't stray to far from the formula, although the Auto-Tune especially in a few of the opening tracks becomes an annoyance they are still at least perfectly calculated tracks to keep our interest.

Feb 12, 2022I Stay In Love maior e melhor do album, quem concorda respira, até hoje não sei pronunciar esse album hahaha
-
Mar 22, 2021A very great record. It is very fun and it is one of Mariah most pop-ish songs, like Touch My Body.
-
Feb 18, 2021So, yes, definitely this album is a breath of fresh air after Mariah's last projects, since it brings a bigger pop influence, making the album more pleasant to listen to, but it still has too many ordinary songs, that nothing add to the singer's discography. "I Stay In Love" is, without a shadow of a doubt, the highlight of the album.

Jan 6, 2020Realistically not her best album, because it lacks cohesion as a body of work. But the album is full of singles, so many good songs that could have become singles, a lot of upbeat songs, and some slower songs with good vocals and evoking a sense of emotion.

Nov 10, 2015album with great commercial potential as well as mixtures one Mariá more fri and classy, dipping into R & B and hip hop if not for the mismanagement of his label would have been higher than the last.

RubenR.Aug 20, 2008It is, the Mariah Carey's best all the time. E=MC2 is really really big and innovator, catchy, sincere and it contains the smash singles that i've never listened Top Song: I Stay In Love Migrate I'll Be Loving You Long Time Side Effects Touch My Body I'm That Chick For The Record.

JacksonS.Jun 24, 2008Musically better than The Emancipation Of Mimi and her best album after 1997's Butterfly - this new album by Mariah Carey managed to prove to her bunch of detractors that she still has the talents to prove.
-
-
PaoloQ.Jun 11, 2008All tracks are great and the album is better than TEOM. Mariah Carey is becoming better than ever.
-
-
jack1222eJun 3, 2008TRUST ME ON THIS! I am a Mariah fan like u fools, but there is nothing new here. Everything is average at best, in fact its inferior to her last hit album. There are about 4-5 quality tracks. Touch my body was basically the best she had to offer and it was the only worthy song to sell her CD.
-
-
ThiagoS.May 31, 2008Very good this one, i didn't like her.
-
-
ClifC.May 30, 2008A 8 only because of the overproduction and one or two songs ("O.O.C." & "Thanx 4 Nothin'") that I can hardly listen. Since the Butterfly album, she has released with E=MC2 her best album.
-
-
HassH.May 21, 2008The best of all MC albums, and most importantly: the best of all female singers today. Superb album

LauraW.May 1, 2008Mariah Carey has a nice album .It is the best piece of work she has done in years. she still has that amazing voice. Once again, she come outs with hot hits. Keep doing your thing girl.

SecardinO.Apr 30, 2008Mediocre album and no artistic ambition.
-

MartinC.Apr 30, 2008She recycled her previous album... again. Just no.
-
-
IvanC.Apr 29, 2008Every track in this album sounds like a recycled track from her previous album. This album is simply bland and boring.

SherriPApr 28, 2008I LOVE this album. I've been a Mariah fan since her first CD and I think she did an excellent job on this CD. I listen to it going to work from the first song to the last! Definitely up there with the Emancipation of Mimi!
-

JesseLApr 25, 2008I really really liike E=MC2 its Mariah Carey's funest CD to date bye fair it has some really good club songs on it and still has thouse good love songs on it the album stars in a club and ends in a church with the song I Wish You Will. I think Touch My Body is the worst song on here and that's the song that made me bye its a good CD Buy it!!

DannyN.Apr 24, 2008Given Mariah's standards, this is simply bad. Very disappointed. It's disturbing listening to a 40 year-old singing about touching her body and so on..will she ever grow??

-
-
pgApr 23, 2008quite boring. a nice voice that's always wasted on such 'blah' songs.... the only highlight track is 'i'll be loving you long time' and that is mostly because of the beat and back-up singers.
-
-
antonios.Apr 21, 2008This c.d is great.. maybe a song a two are a little dull but overall it is an exciting and vibrant c.d.

KarloV.Apr 19, 2008This album is a complete bore! Not even worth the download!
-
-
JonasH.Apr 19, 2008I'm getting tired of hearing this music everywhere, not to mention disgusted by her use of a relativity theory equation without knowing what it means. I laughed out loud when hearing her explain the title "It's like E = Mariah Carey times 2". It should be illegal to abuse mathematical expressions when you don't understand the operators.
-
-
JesusP.Apr 18, 2008despite she does not use her full voice talent it's a superb album from the commercial point of view. there are quite a few potential hit singles included. i would say it's definitely one of her best albums ever even if she could have delighted us a bit more with her full vocal skills.
-
-
CarolynA.Apr 18, 2008At first listen I have to admit I was a bit disappointed, however the more I am hearing the songs the more I am enjoying and appreciating them. I find myself skipping over some though, to re-listen to the 4 or 5 that I really like. I am definitely enjoying the new album, but I honestly have to say it's not as good as "Mimi".
-
-
TonyV.Apr 18, 2008It's an alright album, there's a couple of good songs on there like "O.O.C." and "I'm That Chick". The album was disappointing in a way since her last album was so much better than this one. I think Mariah has lost it over the year, she's not that great anymore.
-

-
-
ChrisW.Apr 17, 2008All of the sudden Mariah doesn't talk like Mariah? The lyrics were obviously written by someone else... and probably for someone else. Mariah with ghetto slang = a poor follow-up to a great album. Mariah, stick to who you are and don't follow poor trends in music.

AmyRApr 17, 2008This is her best album yet!!!! It's has a lil bit of everything for all types of people!! you must add this to your collection!!! love her GO MIMI!!

GabrielL.Apr 17, 2008This is a more "concentrated" album than the Emancipation of Mimi.. with more potential hits and 0 side tracks.
-
-
ChristopherL.Apr 16, 2008A bit of pop, r&b, hip-hop, disco and gospel, working altogether with Mariah's incredible vocals - the result - a stellar album.
-
-
DaniHApr 16, 2008I have been a Mariah fan for a very long time and I am just ecstatic over this album. My favorite song on the album is "For The Record" although I have and will continue to listen to the album from start to finish without skipping one track. def a 10/10.
-
-
MikeC.Apr 16, 2008I love the album so much. I wasn't expecting really high with this album since TEOM was hard to top off but boy was I surprised. The album is really, really good esp I Stay In Love and Cruise Control. Congrats, Mimi!

MaxP.Apr 15, 2008This album is extremely bad. Though I have only heard a few songs off of this record I can tell you that it is another contrived piece of garbage put out by the failing American music industry. Pathetic, Unoriginal and terribly over produced. You want something better than this? Try almost anything else.
-
-
NMApr 15, 2008This is an amazing album from start to finish. She uses her deep voice quite a bit, which sounds amazing. And finally, we get some real bass! My favorite tracks are I'll Be Lovin You Long Time, For The Record, Migrate, Cruise Control, Side Effects, I'm That chick and I Wish You Well... all the tracks are really great. It has something for almost everyone! Yet, it's cohesive!
-
-
DianeApr 15, 2008When will Mariah do something original? As a longtime fan I keep waiting for her to stretch herself artistically, but all she seems to worry about is hitting #1. Congrats to her for beating Elvis. Sadly, they song, like the album, is completely forgettable.

KrazyOneApr 15, 2008Over hyped, at first listen it didn't move me the way. I thought it would or could. It is worth having though. I still like listening to her.
-
-
JamieI.Apr 15, 2008I was never a Mariah fan but I am feeling this CD and enjoying her song writing skills. This is much like the Justin Timberlake CD in that the majority of songs can be hit singles. This CD will be HUGE for her, HUGE. The lyrics on several songs, Side Effects, Bye Bye, Love Story will connect with people deeply. Buy it and enjoy!
-
-
DanS.Apr 15, 2008This album is HOT. If you like beautiful melodies and heart felt lyrics, BUY THIS ALBUM. I had to wash my balls after listening to this!!!
-
-
SidS.Apr 15, 2008It may not be "Mimi," but it's still a terrific album -- I'm That Chick, For The Record and Migrate are stellar.

AlanS.Apr 15, 2008Love the new CD. Can't stop playing it. Brilliant pop. She's done it again.
-
-
JohnnyR.Apr 14, 2008I could not be any more disappointed!!! I was so bored by the whole thing. Migrate gave me a migraine! It's trying hard to be "Emancipation" but it's really mediocre-annoying-diva at best.

Nov 19, 2018It's skillful and winsome enough that the other hits it spins off will stay pleasant, if not revelatory.
-
The result is a largely enjoyable mix of flirtatious club jams, midtempo love songs, and emotional ballads anchored by hip hop beats that hansomely showcase the singer's powerful vocal range. [18 Apr 2008, p.63]
-
The production is glossed to within an inch of its life, the mood is cheerfully upbeat--or 'festive' as Carey might put it herself--and the entire confection rings out with bold, sassy, brutally executed intent.
