Mariah Carey - The Collection

Mariah Carey - The CollectionWith twins on the way with husband actor-rapper Nick Cannon, Carey’s got no time for a new studio album. Fans hungry for more of the pop diva’s sumptuous vocals can feast on this 14-song roundup. Avoiding a complete duplication of The Essential, released earlier this year, The Collection is a mix of number one hits and classic Carey numbers like “Bliss,” “Melt Away” and “Breakdown,” all taken from her mid- to late-’90s albums. Best of all, it includes the dreamy “Babydoll,” which she’ll soon be singing to her twins.
