Mariah Carey has released her new video for the next song off her album, "Up Out My Face" featuring Nicki Minaj.
I have always been a little lukewarm on Mariah. She's usually so hit or miss with her music, sometimes she just seems to be trying too hard. This last album is no exception, but this song I admit is growing on me, especially after seeing the video.
When I first heard this song I immediately skipped it. I didn't like the silly lyrics "I break, up out my face boy", and I still don't like that cadence heavy singing style that Mariah has adopted of late. But for some reason the bright and colorful video with the up and coming Nicki Minaj makes the song work. Mariah actually looks good in this video. Pretty and sexy, but not too naked...it's a good look for her. I approve.
