Mariah Carey readies "extremely radio friendly" new single...

I'm starting to detest the word "radio friendly". You know when that word gets thrown around, a song will be anything but that. Erik Bradley, Music Director of major Chicago radio station B96, has heard the forthcoming new Mariah Carey single, which is due in February. Bradley tweeted today that the song is extremely radio friendly and hints at it having a classic MC sound.The new track is preceded by previous singles 'Triumphant', 'Beautiful' and 'The Art Of Letting Go'. None of those charted with the exception of 'Beautiful', which had some moderate chart success.

MC's manager and producer Jermaine Dupri also instagrammed a beat he's been working on with Bryan-Michael Cox. It sounds exactly like something MC would hop on. As for the classic MC sound, Ariana Grande has been all over that. But hopefully, it's 'Fantasy' type radio friendly and not radio friendly in the 'Touch My Body' sense. Gah. We'll see.
