In an exclusive interview for V Magazine, Mimi reveals some details about her next studio album – and first with her new label, Roc Nation.

New music-related extracts from the V Magazine interview:

Stephen Gan: I hear you’re back in the studio.

Mariah Carey: I’m in the studio starting a new album of regular music...

SG: Regular music?

MC: Meaning it’s not a Christmas album [laughs]. I’m kind of restarting, and I’m working with Roc Nation now, so that’s great. I had a really incredible meeting—just a musical, good meeting of the minds—with Jay Brown, Jay-Z, and Tata [Tyran Smith], who’s an incredible person. We all just kind of threw some ideas around, so we’re starting from the musical place rather than, like, what’s the hook? It’s gotta be done that way.

SG: What’s the process been like, working on new music?

MC: I’ve already been in the studio last year and the year before that, just playing around and doing some music, some other things. I don’t want to give away too many people that I’m working with, but there’s a different approach that I’m taking as an artist. I think it’s like a fresh start. A lot of people see that whole other image. They see this diva; they see hair, makeup, bod, clothes, whatever it is—and hand gestures [laughs]—and they’re like, oh. They don’t think songwriter. But I look at myself as a songwriter first, and then a singer. That’s what I love to do the most.

It’s impossible to deny these photographs are gorgeous but keeping it real, I’m not sure it’s the true Mariah we’re seeing here. The Photoshop edits to make her look skinny are just a little too much. It's somewhat disrespectful to our brains. If you search for a recent candid of Mariah you will instantly see the differences. She honestly looks like a whole different person especially in the cover photo. But YEY at the new music part!
