Mariah just wants her new album to make her fans happy blah blah blah

  • August 3, 2012
  • Brad O'Mance

Mariah Carey has said that she's not trying to follow any specific trends ('EDM', basically) on her untitled new album.

"I'm col­lab­or­at­ing with a lot of my favorite people but the main thing is [that] I'm not trying to follow any par­tic­u­lar trend," she said during a media con­fer­ence call thing (as quoted here).

"I want it to be well received. I want to stay true to myself and the music that I love and make the fans happy."

That's what we all want, Mariah.

Mind you, the 'Didn't Mean To Turn You On' chanteuse is a bit sad about the current state of her beloved R&B: "It would be incred­ible if we can bring back the days where R&B songs didn't have to cross over. It makes me sad that there are so many talented R&B artists that don't get the chance that they should."

She's also debuted her new single 'Triumphant (Get 'Em)', which you can listen to below.
