There was a time when Mariah Carey's music was just innovative, risk taking and extraoridinary as Alica Key's falling .That was 12 years ago when she was young and could only move up. Now, at 32 with ehr diva status and host of emotional problems, Carey is desperately trying to prove she can still praticipate in the race, even if she can't rule it. CHARMBRACELET, her latest album is a conservative, uninspired effort. she dosent do anything wrong, perse, but its certainly far short of what her rare talent is capable of producing. After the collapse of Carey's multi-billion dollar deal with Virgin and the rumours that they paid her jsut to leave, there is a lot riding on this CD. It seems the fragile diva cant handle the pressure. Lead single Through the rain is as trite and overly contrived a ballad as Carey's debut single Vison of love was savvy and special. Notable tracks on charnbraclet include You had your chance and the one ( which is reminiscent of Usher's U got it bad) but the rest Undoubtedly worth the fast forward button
