1
00:00:07,133 --> 00:00:10,453
Speaker 1: You're listening to the Saturday Morning with Jack team podcast

2
00:00:10,573 --> 00:00:11,733
Speaker 1: from News Talks at B.

3
00:00:23,733 --> 00:00:28,013
Speaker 2: That's Mariah Carrey. Her new album is Here for It All.

4
00:00:28,093 --> 00:00:32,653
Speaker 2: That's called Type Dangerous. Christ Shaltz has been listening and

5
00:00:32,733 --> 00:00:33,693
Speaker 2: he's with us this morning.

6
00:00:33,813 --> 00:00:35,933
Speaker 3: Got a good morning, sir, Kilder Jack. How are you.

7
00:00:36,053 --> 00:00:38,573
Speaker 2: I'm very well, thank you. Yeah. But new Mariah, first

8
00:00:38,573 --> 00:00:39,493
Speaker 2: new Mariah in a while.

9
00:00:40,213 --> 00:00:44,053
Speaker 3: It's yeah. The biggest thing she did most recently was

10
00:00:44,053 --> 00:00:46,973
Speaker 3: a memoir actually in twenty twenty, yeah, right, came out

11
00:00:47,013 --> 00:00:49,213
Speaker 3: and started COVID kind of a twel all. So this

12
00:00:49,293 --> 00:00:52,933
Speaker 3: is her first big new album. Very brave move to

13
00:00:52,973 --> 00:00:55,333
Speaker 3: release an album right now. We're six days away from

14
00:00:55,413 --> 00:00:57,573
Speaker 3: the biggest album of the year coming out. That is,

15
00:00:57,613 --> 00:00:59,893
Speaker 3: of course, Taylor Swift's The Life of a Show.

16
00:01:00,013 --> 00:01:00,133
Speaker 1: Now.

17
00:01:00,413 --> 00:01:02,853
Speaker 3: Yeah, I am locked into the listening party with my

18
00:01:02,853 --> 00:01:05,013
Speaker 3: eleven year old daughter. We have a route to pick

19
00:01:05,053 --> 00:01:08,933
Speaker 3: up her friends we're doing. So you're either very brave,

20
00:01:09,093 --> 00:01:11,773
Speaker 3: very silly, or you just don't care at this point

21
00:01:11,773 --> 00:01:14,493
Speaker 3: if you're releasing an album now, Mariah Carey doesn't have

22
00:01:14,573 --> 00:01:16,933
Speaker 3: to care. She has spent nearly two years at the

23
00:01:16,933 --> 00:01:19,053
Speaker 3: top of the charts. Ninety weeks I believe she's been

24
00:01:19,093 --> 00:01:22,693
Speaker 3: at number one nineteen number one songs. This is her

25
00:01:22,773 --> 00:01:27,413
Speaker 3: sixteenth album. She doesn't have to switch things up at

26
00:01:27,413 --> 00:01:30,933
Speaker 3: this We need to prove so this is very much

27
00:01:31,013 --> 00:01:35,453
Speaker 3: in her wheelhouse. This is schmoltzy R and B. It's soul,

28
00:01:36,573 --> 00:01:38,613
Speaker 3: it's got a little bit of funk. There's a couple

29
00:01:38,613 --> 00:01:40,533
Speaker 3: of party songs in there that sort of nod to

30
00:01:40,573 --> 00:01:43,453
Speaker 3: her roots. They're the ones my years went to. Like

31
00:01:43,653 --> 00:01:46,413
Speaker 3: the song you just played, type dangerous. I prefer it

32
00:01:46,453 --> 00:01:49,213
Speaker 3: when she's dabbling in hip hop. That's how she first started.

33
00:01:49,293 --> 00:01:51,813
Speaker 3: Her big first song was Fantasy and it had Odib

34
00:01:52,013 --> 00:01:54,613
Speaker 3: from the Wu Tang clan, and she did a lot

35
00:01:54,653 --> 00:01:57,893
Speaker 3: of that early in her career. So that singles based

36
00:01:57,893 --> 00:02:00,653
Speaker 3: on a sample from Eric B and Raking the eighties

37
00:02:00,733 --> 00:02:05,933
Speaker 3: hip hop greats, and that's kind of about all she does.

38
00:02:06,173 --> 00:02:08,493
Speaker 3: That's why I sent you that song to play. The

39
00:02:08,533 --> 00:02:10,333
Speaker 3: rest of it's it's just kind of a mixed bag.

40
00:02:10,373 --> 00:02:15,213
Speaker 3: There's love songs, there's R and B ballads. She's The

41
00:02:15,453 --> 00:02:17,733
Speaker 3: surprising thing is is just how muted it all.

42
00:02:21,013 --> 00:02:25,613
Speaker 2: Yeah, right, so we don't get there are none of that.

43
00:02:25,813 --> 00:02:28,333
Speaker 3: No, it's very hush hush A lot of whispered kind

44
00:02:28,333 --> 00:02:31,813
Speaker 3: of vocals. Yeah, but I mean, look, she's fifty.

45
00:02:31,493 --> 00:02:34,173
Speaker 2: Four, she's gone under the proof.

46
00:02:34,413 --> 00:02:36,733
Speaker 3: She made All I Want for Christmas is you. Her

47
00:02:36,733 --> 00:02:39,613
Speaker 3: house is stocked with personal chefs and butlers for the

48
00:02:39,653 --> 00:02:40,613
Speaker 3: rest of her days.

49
00:02:40,693 --> 00:02:40,933
Speaker 1: Yeah.

50
00:02:41,013 --> 00:02:44,293
Speaker 2: Yeah, she's doing okay, she's doing the cost of living

51
00:02:44,413 --> 00:02:46,773
Speaker 2: crisis is and pinging at Mariah's place too much.

52
00:02:46,813 --> 00:02:48,613
Speaker 3: The one black mark I would give her is that

53
00:02:48,693 --> 00:02:51,893
Speaker 3: she's about to tour Australia. She's doing the Friday's Live festival.

54
00:02:52,613 --> 00:02:55,253
Speaker 3: She's not coming here. Yeah, one of the many artists

55
00:02:55,813 --> 00:02:58,173
Speaker 3: isn't visiting us this year, So I definitely give her

56
00:02:58,173 --> 00:03:00,333
Speaker 3: a black mark. Friday's Live is a festival, like a

57
00:03:00,373 --> 00:03:02,573
Speaker 3: throwback hip hop, R and B festival that has always

58
00:03:02,573 --> 00:03:05,533
Speaker 3: come here. This is the first year it's Australian only,

59
00:03:05,573 --> 00:03:07,693
Speaker 3: and she does Actually, what's a show she canceled at

60
00:03:07,733 --> 00:03:08,693
Speaker 3: twenty eighteen?

61
00:03:09,173 --> 00:03:11,013
Speaker 2: True, I remember that?

62
00:03:11,253 --> 00:03:12,533
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, so she does.

63
00:03:12,653 --> 00:03:12,973
Speaker 1: She does.

64
00:03:13,893 --> 00:03:16,613
Speaker 2: Yeah, so she's doing for Australian shows. Okay, on that

65
00:03:16,733 --> 00:03:18,333
Speaker 2: is it? That is a bit of a shame, all right,

66
00:03:18,413 --> 00:03:22,733
Speaker 2: So it sounds sort of okay, But she's not taking risks.

67
00:03:23,253 --> 00:03:26,253
Speaker 3: No, she's very much at the legacy stage. Of her career.

68
00:03:26,293 --> 00:03:28,133
Speaker 3: If it came on at a moll, I think you'd

69
00:03:28,133 --> 00:03:29,933
Speaker 3: probably just be like, this is fine.

70
00:03:30,453 --> 00:03:34,013
Speaker 2: If it's right, there's a line if it came on

71
00:03:34,053 --> 00:03:38,813
Speaker 2: in a moll, it's just fine. Yeah, I yeah, she doesn't.

72
00:03:38,413 --> 00:03:40,453
Speaker 3: Need to do anything else. I don't hate it for

73
00:03:40,493 --> 00:03:42,173
Speaker 3: that though, Like I'm not like mad at her, but

74
00:03:42,453 --> 00:03:45,053
Speaker 3: there's a world where she could do like the Madonna

75
00:03:45,173 --> 00:03:47,133
Speaker 3: or the Sheer Thing, where she releases these kind of

76
00:03:47,173 --> 00:03:50,973
Speaker 3: like eurotrash bangers versions of songs that sort of play

77
00:03:50,973 --> 00:03:54,733
Speaker 3: and ibetha and and get beloved by a new generation.

78
00:03:54,893 --> 00:03:57,493
Speaker 3: But she doesn't seem like someone wants to do that.

79
00:03:57,653 --> 00:03:59,653
Speaker 2: Okay, alright, so what did you give here for it all?

80
00:04:00,093 --> 00:04:03,493
Speaker 3: It's two and a half, that's all, no more, no okay.

81
00:04:03,533 --> 00:04:06,093
Speaker 3: If you like Mariah Kira, you'll love her. If you don't,

82
00:04:06,373 --> 00:04:07,293
Speaker 3: it's not gonna win you want.

83
00:04:08,733 --> 00:04:09,053
Speaker 2: Okay.

84
00:04:09,093 --> 00:04:09,533
