Description
On her 15th studio album, and first in four years, Mariah Careys graceful R&B is punctuated by crisp hip-hop production, this time via Timbaland, DJ Mustard, and Drakes frequent producer Nineteen85. Along with them are some of the most memorable hip-hop features in R&B: Ty Dolla $ign for the chant-led The Distance and Gunna on the upbeat, trap-influenced Stay Long Love You. When shes on her own, she uses her spotlight to give a little female-empowerment sass on GTFO and A No No. But the real standout of the set may be the slinky, six-minute Giving Me Life, featuring Slick Rick and Blood Oranges Dev Hynes. Mariah Carey largely set the template for the current era of hybrid hip-hop/R&B-pop, and C’aution’ proves shes still pushing the musical conversation forward.
