I sort of have my doubts about Mariah releasing an album in 2009, it will probably be pushed back to 2010. E=MC2 was originally slated for December '07 and look what happened there! LOL!
I agree about Beyonce and I really liked I Am Sasha Fierce, especially Disc 1. It's nice that Beyonce went with a full pop sound for her ballads instead of the tired urban sound, which she reserved for Disc 2. It looks like we may be returning to a straight up pop sound, that is if artists follow what Beyonce started, which they sometimes do. I also wish R&B would go back to traditional R&B instead of this mutated hip-hop based faux R&B we've been listening to since at least 1997.
