Early buzz on The Emancipation of Mimi predicted that this would be the disc to mark "the return of the voice"--the voice being that glass-shattering instrument that propelled Carey to bestselling female artist of all time status--and mostly it is. But because of the small army of talent involved in its assembly, the album is way more than just a comeback vehicle. For proof, try the straight-ahead, look-out-Beyonce-Mimi's-still-got-it "Mine Again"; the '70s-soul cuddle-up "Circles," a don't-attempt-on-American Idol love song; or the gospel dazzlers "Fly Like a Bird" and "Stay the Night." But for songs that steer this disc directly into 2005, no looking back, scan the jewel case for tracks followed by the word "featuring": "To the Floor," with Nelly, bumps along to maximum booty-shaking effect, while Twista spins his natural-disaster-force vocals into "One and Only." Snoop Dogg, Pharrell Williams, and Jermaine Dupri also pitch in; between them and the highwire vocals, Emancipation works the kind of pure-pop magic that sets us all free. --Tammy La GorceThis platinum edition features four tracks not found on the original release: "Don't Forget About Us"; "What It Look Like"; "So Lonely (One & Only Part II)"; and a remix of "We Belong Together" featuring Jadakiss and Styles P.

 One Of My Favorite CDs EVER June 28, 2008
I absolutely love this CD. It is one of my favorite albums ever. I give it 5 stars because I like everyone song, and can listen to it over and over and over again. I just love her voice and her versatility. Mariah fans trust me you will NOT be disappointed. She did her thing on this one.
 We Belong Where? May 24, 2008
Together! That's it! I LOVE the danceable tracks in this collection. Let's face it, Mariah's voice is NOT what it used to be. Alas, her music IS better since ole' Tommy Boy left.
1. It's Like That - Dance! Love it!
2. We Belong Together - Not really a ballad lover, but great song!
3. Shake It Off - Dance again! Love it!
4. Mine Again - Bore.
5. Say Somethin' - Slightly danceable. Not that great.
6. Stay The Night - Bore!
7. Get Your Number - Great lyrical fun and danceable!
8. One And Only - Bore.
9. Circles - Bore!
10. Your Girl - VERY boring!
11. I Wish You Knew - BORING!
12. To The Floor - BORE!
13. Joy Ride - I'm sleeping Mariah....
14. Fly Like A Bird - Please, this is trashy gospel.
15. Don't Forget About Us - Fair, but not a #1 as occured.
16. Makin' It Last All Night (What It Do) - Great simple song.
17. So Lonely (One & Only Part II) - Snooze Fest!
18. We Belong Together Remix featuring Jadakiss and Styles P. - STUPID!
All in all, an okay album. I would suggest DLding the dance tracks and SKIPPING the rest.
Great comback CD May 22, 2008
I love this CD, and it's definitely one of Mariah's greatest CD's. She's an amazing singer!
Mimi's Emancipation works so well May 1, 2008
Long story short, had this album since 2005, never really listened to it, bought "E=MC2", decided to but the Platinum edition of "The Emancipation of Mimi" and I LOVE IT.
Key tracks:
It's Like That - such a up beat way to reintroduce herself and let go all of the pain from the few years before.
We Belong Together - one of my favourite songs of ALL TIME, I love it. Everything about this r&b song is perfection to me. The vocals, running time, chorus, music. I love it toooo much.
Shake it Off - nice song, not the best but its pretty cool!
Say Somethin' - really mid-90's sounding, I really like this track.
Get your Number - another grower on me, its a really hot song, the video is awesome too.
One And Only - Mariahs restrained vocals sound awesome and Twistas rapping is top notch.
Fly Like A Bird - WOW. Perfect gospel up lifting song!
Dont Forget About Us - Kind of a carbon copy of We Belong Together but its a decent enough track and well deserving of her 17th #1.
We Belong Together REMIX - kind of repetitive, but nevertheless, a really good track!
SO BUY THIS NOW! Along with E=MC2, Mariah has made 2 REALLY good albums over the past 3 years! Too good! Try it out now! Go on!
Mariah Carey April 29, 2008
Mariah Carey is one of my Fav. Singers. I really love all her albums. She stays true to herself and her type of music.. No matter how she dresses or does her hair :). Oh, and by the way.. who ever added the tag suggestions of fat, flop, and terrible.. Quit hating. You have to really be jealous to take the time out to insult people online. either jealous or really inerested. Mariah Carey makes money for her singing. People do like her.. regardless of what she does with her life or looks like.
