“Angels Advocate” - 2010

What happened to this?? 😭 I know Angels Advocate was supposed to come out sometime after Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel, but it never actually saw the light of day. Would y’all have even wanted this remix album?

Some of the confirmed tracks that were reportedly supposed to appear on it included:

• “Betcha Gon’ Know” featuring R. Kelly, later included on the deluxe edition of Me. I Am Mariah… The Elusive Chanteuse in 2014

• “Obsessed” featuring Gucci Mane

• “H.A.T.E.U.” featuring OJ Da Juiceman, Big Boi & Gucci Mane

• “Candy Bling (I Remember)” featuring T-Pain

• “Ribbon” featuring Ludacris & The-Dream

• “Inseparable” featuring Trey Songz

• “It’s a Wrap” featuring Mary J. Blige, later included on the deluxe edition of Me. I Am Mariah… The Elusive Chanteuse in 2014

• “More Than Just Friends” featuring Fabolous

• “I Want to Know What Love Is” featuring The-Dream, reportedly remixed into an uptempo track

Skydiving, 100% and Imperfect were also set to appear

Nicki Minaj, K-Ci & JoJo, Ne-Yo, and Big Boi were also reportedly set to appear.

Honestly, when the 17-year anniversary of Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel comes around, Mariah should just go ahead and release this 😭🤷🏾‍♂️

How does everyone feel about Jacqueef saying he didn’t wanna join the R&B Tour cause he didn’t wanna “sing background” like Mario & Tank.

Always wondered why this song never really took off frfr, especially because it fit the 2015 R&B sound PERFECTLY. 😭 This deserved a much bigger moment back then and honestly, it still deserves more love TODAY!
Lowkey, Mariah could’ve scrapped that greatest hits album and built an entire album around this sound instead 🤷🏾‍♂️
Fun fact: was co-written by Muni Long.

Such a deep cut!

“25 years of 8701…crazy how fast the time went. We can talk about the streams/sales. We can talk about the awards.

But 8701 was always bigger than the numbers or any of those things.

It’s the memories we made. It’s the fact that this album is what transformed me and truly put me on the map from a teen into a young man.

Thank U for all the love and support. U are what has made 8701 so special for all these years.

25 years later and we’re still making memories.” - Usher via IG & X

What is everyone’s favorites from this album? Mine are : U Got It Bad, How Do I Say, Can You Help Me, Good Ole Ghetto, Twork It Out

Also can you believe at one point this was gonna be a whole different album??😭😭

Thoughts?

I asked a similar question about E=MC² vs. Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel, and most people leaned toward Memoirs. So now I wanted to put these two albums up against each other because I’m curious to see where everyone stands.

For me, I’m going with Me. I Am Mariah… The Elusive Chanteuse.
I could’ve done without some of the trap-inspired production on Caution. At times it felt like Mariah was leaning into the sound of the moment, whereas Me. I Am Mariah felt more rooted in her signature blend of R&B and hip-hop. I also find the songwriting on Me. I Am… a bit stronger overall.
Of course, that’s just my opinion.

And just to be clear, this post isn’t meant to be bait or ruffle any feathers with fellow Lambs. I’m genuinely interested in hearing different perspectives and starting a respectful discussion. Which album do you prefer, and why?

You can keep one.. But you have to delete the other.

Gonna feel like 2005 all over again 😭
