Untitled

That Chick is the eleventh studio album by American singer-songwriter Mariah Carey. The album is scheduled to be released on April 1, 2008.[2][3][4][5]

Production history

Carey reportedly said she had been writing new songs while traveling on her latest tour.[6] It was reported that Carey is recording her new album and has booked a whole month in Anguilla's biggest villa and had a studio built in it. Hip Hop producer Bryan Michael Cox visited Anguilla and contributed four new songs to the album.[7]

At TAO's New Years party, Carey's song "Migrate", which features rapper T-Pain, was played.[8]

On February 1, 2008 a video of Mariah and Jermaine Dupri during one of their late night studio recording sessions in Carey's TriBeCa triplex was posted on Mariah's official website.[9][10]

Announced producers and collaborators

  • DJ Toomp confirmed he produced a song on her new album. Toomp told SOHH:
I really haven't heard none [sic.] of the other songs on Mariah's album but the one I brought is pretty hot. It's gonna be a club banger.[11]
  • Rapper T.I. was interviewed by VIBE to talk about his forthcoming album T.I. vs. T.I.P., films, and future projects. He said that he is one of the producers of one of Carey's upcoming albums.[12]
  • Hip Hop producer Polow Da Don said that he'll be working with Carey for her new album.[13]
  • Rolling Stone Magazine wrote:

Mariah Carey's last album The Emancipation of Mimi was the breakout hit of 2005 selling more than six million copies (in the U.S. alone). For the follow-up, she's hewing close to Mimi's glossy, club-ready sound, with beats from Hip Hop producers Jermaine Dupri, Stargate, Bryan Michael Cox and Will.i.am.[16]

  • The British singer/songwriter Amanda Ghost said that she is collaborating with Carey, among others.[18]
  • Speaking at the launch of her new M fragrance in LA, she revealed:

"I am so happy with the new tracks - there are 22 that we're trying to decide from.

But the way I like to look at it is the last album was the main course,

and the new one is the dessert!"[19]
