Mariah Carey And Justin Timberlake Team Up For 'Yours'
(Wednesday, November 06, 2002 5:07:50 PM) from Allstar:
" Mariah Carey and Justin Timberlake have teamed up to record a version of the song "Yours" for Carey's upcoming debut album for her MonarC Music imprint, which is a part of the Island/Def Jam Music Group. Carey's album is due out December 10, and the track featuring the *NSYNC (news - web sites) singer will be added to the set pending Carey's final approval.
Producers Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis produced "Yours" in two recording sessions--first with Carey and then with Timberlake, who overdubbed his own unique harmonies and vocals. The first single from Carey's new album, the Jam & Lewis produced "Through The Rain," was the most added track last week at AC radio.
Carey previewed some of her other new songs, including the gospel-flavored ballad "My Saving Grace" and "I Only Wanted," at an intimate listening party she held recently as part of her current promotional tour.
Carey also collaborated with Cam'ron on a radio-friendly cover of his song, "Oh Boy." Just Blaze produced "Oh Boy," in addition to another song titled "You Got Me," which features rappers Jay-Z and Freeway. Dr. Dre and Vidal Davis produced the song "Clown," while Jermaine Dupri collaborated with Carey on "The One."
The aforementioned and other top-notch producers like DJ Quik, 7 Aurelius, Irv Gotti, and Damizza are helping Carey get her musical career back on track with this album after her last effort, Glitter, ended up being a commercial disappointment.
