Eminem Takes The Elevator Down Lyrically

Eminem has dropped a new song “Elevator” and the beat is hot but the lyrics are not.

Em covers ground he covered 8 years ago and changed a word that rhymes with “maggot” and did 8 years ago much better.  I love Eminem and I thought by now, he would have moved on in the sense of more grown up lyrics and he hasn’t.

Bringing up Adam Lambert does not make it current when you still bring up Lance Bass.  Maybe Eminem needs more beef with Mariah because at least while still being a sharp lyricst, his lyrics at least had a bite instead of a bark.

Mariah Carey did a photo shoot yesterday in Malibu, where she tried on bathing suits and pranced and danced around on the beach.

Not feeling the bathing suit but know if I say how I really feel, I will be chastised. I guess I should just be happy I did not see no camel toe.

Are you digging Mariah’s bathing suit?-Dr.FB

Mariah Wants To Know What Love Is

When you stumble and your beat is lazy, pull something back from the 80’s. Mariah Carey is about to do that.

Mariah Carey, who’s first single “Obsessed” should have been called “A Bust” as it bombed so bad, Mariah pushed her CD back a month. Now, getting heat before we have even heard a lick is her new song entitled “I Want To Know What Love Is” and is from the 1980’s by the rock group Foreigner.

I must say…smart move. “Open Arms”, ”I’ll Be There”, Can’t Live”, and “I Still Believe” were huge hits for Mariah and all covers.  Not too much bass Mariah. Keep it simple with piano and other poppy things. Stick to that and you might have a pretty big hit on your hands.-Dr.FB

So is she worried about Whitney or does the CD really need more post-production? Me thinks she is worried about Whitney so it does need post-production.

The CD is now slated for late September. She has dropped out of the Today Show and is being replaced by Miley Cyrus and has even dropped out of the MTV Awards.  Obsession did nothing on the charts although I have heard nothing negative about it. The diss track by Eminem was hot but Nick Cannon quoting from the bible as a response, not so much.

Maybe Mariah should get Eminem to some how appear on the CD, since he is obsessed right Mariah? You put him on it, that CD will sell.-Dr.FB

Is Mariah Tripping Over Whitney Again?

Is Mariah Carey tripping over Whitney Houston’s return?  Rumors are circulating about it.  Mariah’s new CD was set to debut later this month but was pushed back. The reason? Whitney Houston’s return CD was set to drop the following week.

Now, Mariah’s CD has been pushed back to mid-September and Whitney’s is now coming out August 31st. Mariah is competitive, but I am sure she wished her CD was not coming out around Whitney’s.  There used to be rumors of a rival between the two divas that seemed to be squashed when they recorded together. Now? Maybe not so much.

Let’s be real here OK?

Whitney’s voice is nowhere near the powerhouse it was on say songs such as “I Will Always Love You” and “I Have Nothing” back in the early 90’s. Unfortunately, it has nothing to do with age. Her public struggles with drug use, nothing she has admitted too publicly although going into drug rehab centers in the public eye and her denial of “Crack is Whack” in an interview with Diane Sawyer.

Mariah’s voice appears to have suffered the same fate if you watched her “America’s Got Talent” performance of “Obsession” last week. There has been no known proof aside from rumors that her 2001 psych ward visit was brought on by bad drug trips before the release of “Glitter”, where her voice took a downturn as well. Nothing to do with age, but only, rumors of drug use.

Mariah may be tripping but I think it has more to do with the material of her new CD and not so much as Whitney’s, whose latest single written by Alicia Keys “Million Dollar Bill” and is blowing up. I hope both artists will be successful, but in the end, the product will speak for itself, and not exactly the release date.-Dr.FB
