Mariah Carey is gearing up to release her 16th album, but this is no Christmas miracle. The songstress, who is typically known for her holiday cheer, is instead releasing her new album, “Here For It All,” in September. Carey announced the new album on her personal Instagram, teasing a short clip of the new track that the album was named for. According to Variety, this is not the first hint of what is to come. The Rock ‘n’ Roll Hall of Fame inductee also released another track, “Type Dangerous,” earlier in June.
Carey is still keeping the details of the album under wraps, but Variety has also reported that another track will be entitled “Sugar Sweet.” These songs do not appear to be thematically in line with her previous fare, but fans should be excited all the same. The singer has made a name for herself with Christmas-themed songs and several specials airing on Apple TV+. These new songs may not be “All I Need For Christmas Is You,” but they should have the same panache when “Here For It All” debuts on September 26. Until then, fans can still relive all of Carey’s hits in her long career.
Mariah Carey Is a Pop Culture Touchstone For Many
Mariah Carey has been teasing a new album for quite some time. She explained to Variety a few months ago that she was figuring out the track list.
“I’ve written some new songs. You know, I’m excited about it,” Carey stated. “I have to figure out which songs I’m going to do and which songs I’m not going to do. But I think I’m very excited about it.”
Carey’s last album was in 2018, when she released the record “Caution.” Since then, she has continued her Christmas pageantry with the likes of Michael Bublé, who also comes out of his shell every holiday season. In the past two decades, Carey’s work has appeared in a variety of different films, from the holiday romance Love Actually to the more bizarre, Beau Is Afraid. Ari Aster specifically asked Carey for permission to use her song in his most uncomfortable film because of how significant it was to the story. Aster had scripted “Always Be My Baby” into Beau Is Afraid from the very beginning, which encouraged the singer to give him the rights. No matter what the occasion, it seems that this Christmas queen is valid for every occasion. Fans should make sure to stay tuned to Collider and watch out for “Here For It All” when it comes out on September 26.
