    This album is by far the best album released this decade! Mariah Carey did not come to play when she walked in the studio to record “Caution”. The album gives a warning to prepare yourself because it will knock your wig off unapologeticly. Mariah has 15 albums in her catelog and every single album is full of evident hard work. She never seizes to put out her best. Caution is a mix ofThis album is by far the best album released this decade! Mariah Carey did not come to play when she walked in the studio to record “Caution”. The album gives a warning to prepare yourself because it will knock your wig off unapologeticly. Mariah has 15 albums in her catelog and every single album is full of evident hard work. She never seizes to put out her best. Caution is a mix of “Butterfly” , “The Emancipation Of Mimi” with tiddles of “Memoirs of An Imperfect Angel” , “Charmbraclet” and “E=MC2”. Except with a modern twist. Mariah has mastered the technique of staying true to her original style while evolving with the times. This album is best described be the phrase “All Killer, No Filler”. A must have for you collection, and easily in her top 3 best.… Expand

    This is Mariah’s best record since The Emancipation of Mimi and is a cohesive masterpiece. This production is very unique and is the most ambitious of the year. Mariah has lots of fun yet is vulnerable enough to be relatable in songs like “Portrait” and “With You”. Highly Recommended for all time

    Previously, Mariah Carey has made it clear that she’s been through too much to care what anyone else thinks, shrugging off critics and denying all drama. On Caution, Carey has channeled that energy into the music itself.

    She’ll employ of-the-moment producers to add current touches to her tracks, but the way she uses them on Caution results in her fine-tuning her aesthetic, not bending to current playlist-friendly trends.

    A neat album of only 10 tracks. We find her in life-admin mode, clearing out any dispensable trash that she no longer has time or the inclination for. ... Sublime.
