If you go to mariahcarey.com, she is streaming the song at 8.45 (in 15 mins)!!

That's what I was thinking. A bit confused as two big sections out of that look like the rappers bits, and the other smaller bits look like Mariah's bits but they are quite repetitive.

Rapping covers both the first and second verse, with Mariah singing the choruses and bridge, in addition to cooing beneath the rapping (oooh, ohhhh yeaaah, typical Mimi stuff.)
It's 8:49 and THE STREAM IS NOT UP.

Oh Lord, Mariah has lost the plot. Never thought I'd say this.

The somg is a mess. The rappers bits are too long. It's about 3 mins into the song before Mariah makes a proper apperance. Vocally, some of it doesn't even sound like her. I'm a stan but I can't even know what to say about this song!!!

WHAAAT?

Her vocals are crazzaay dope!

I do understand what you mean about her not being featured much but when it gets to her part her vocals shine through!

i LOVE it!!!

The song would be somewhat decent if she featured on it more. The structure is awful.

The best bit for me is:

an’t fall down now, so even when clouds surround you And everyone seems to doubt you Baby still know who you are So you gotta keep on climbing In spite of the chains that bind you You can see the mountain top It’s not too far

The rest of the small bits that she sings are the same lyrics over and over again.

where is everyone hearing this song ?!

I love the song. It could do without the rappers - I really don't know why she has two, one would have sufficed. Her vocals are... questionable.

Hmmm its quite good, but like already said, I'd prefer less of the rappers.

I think it will grow though.

And now that I'm listening through a decent pair of headphones I have to say that the vocals are nice particularly from theclouds surround you part but then it ends to quickly. The song would have been much better if Mariah feature more and they got rid of the second rapper.

Her vocals in the chorus sound bad because she's overlaid them with a seperate recording sang in her whisper register, it makes her sound dry.

I like the song.

though as far as the 'UK' goes, this will flop.

Yes it's the vocals in the chorus that sound suspect.

I originally thought she was just straining to the heavens, like really straining, but then she's consistently belting high at the end of the song so that couldn't be the case. However, if you just listen closely, it's poor production. Too much vocal overlay makes her sound like a mutant...

Cute but too much of Meek Mill and RR.

Her voice is still amazing.

I think she sounds good. not amazing but she sounds good. her vocals will sound loads better when she releases a ballad.

I think the song should do well in states. Urban songs do do well there. the song is v catchy.

I will def be buying it when comes out Aug 5th!!!

They obviously use a lot of vocal overlay to cover up the fact her voice has changed and isn't very good anymore, but is husky and raspy.

Speaking as a fan, when does she not flop in the UK? :P

her vocals arent what they use to be but her live performances recently show she still can sing and she can still sing a lot better than a lot female artist out there now!

I like the song, but agree its a bit strange that she's only singing the bridge and the chorus.

I'm pretty sure after listening to this that she'll release another single before the album drops.

It's growing on me. Just wish she had featured more.

It sounds better here:

I love it but I'm surprised she sings so little Instead of the rappers being ''featured'' she could be classed as ''featured'' herself!

Cannot wait for the album anyway.
