Interesting. It is easy to see why they struggled with a first single choice. I personally like the vibe of Migrate a lot. I do think IDJ thought TMB would
crossover more genres. Mariah constantly struggles to get validation as a hip hop artist and Migrate is a hot hip hop song. The general public doesn't see
Mariah's other side to her: the tough hip hop girl because she is also a princess! Mariah seems like she had lots of fun with the song and the fans will
love it. I think it would be an interesting single and the DJs also apparently love it!
The fans have not heard all of Bye Bye and it will be premiering on American Idol supposedly. Timing wise, Bye Bye should be sung on American Idol and not
Migrate because of the audience. The young and older parents who would buy the young kids the album would probably like Bye Bye better.
That is also why it is strange radio premiered Migrate while Bye Bye will be on American Idol. It means one of two things: IDJ is hoping radio will play it
enough and people will download it and it will be #1 without releasing it, or they will not release it at all and it will be a fly by thing the DJs can play
till Bye Bye is out..... Or it is a big test to see what single should be released...
