Mariah Carey drops first solo music in 6 years
Mariah Carey has dropped her first solo music in six years, Type Dangerous.
After teasing fans about her 16th studio album with a glamourous sports car teaser on social media, fans have been given the first taste of what's to come.
Type Dangerous samples legendary hip-hop trio Eric B. and Rakim's 1986 cut Eric B. Is President.
In a statement, Mariah said of her return: "I've been locked up in the studio for quite some time working my behind off on new music, and I'm thrilled for the unveiling of it to my fans, starting with Type Dangerous!"
Mariah's new album will mark her first since 2018's Caution.
The new song comes after Anderson Paak recently revealed he's been working on new music with Mariah.
The 39-year-old singer-and-producer let the news slip while appearing on social media series Track Star — where guests try to identify mystery songs — and he correctly guessed the 56-year-old star's 1996 track Always Be My Baby.
Anderson — who was wearing a T-shirt featuring Mariah's face — said: "This would be Mariah Carey. The Mariah Carey.
"I remember in like 5th grade, or something, watching the music videos and having a huge crush. We're working on some music on her new album."
The pair hooking up in the studio comes after the pair were romantically linked in March 2025 when they were seen holding hands after the iHeartRadio Music Awards and were also spotted leaving a restaurant together around the same time.
Last year saw Mariah celebrate 20 years since the release of her Emancipation of Mimi album.

Popular fashion chain to open 10 new stores and upgrade 30 more branches
The fashion and homeware retailer has not published a full list of new locations, but revealed it wants to expand its footprint in London, Essex, Hampshire and Northern Ireland Matalan has announced plans to open ten new and relocated stores this year as part of a £25million investment. The fashion and homeware retailer has not published a full list of new locations, but revealed it wants to expand its footprint in London, Essex, Hampshire and Northern Ireland. Matalan will also upgrade 30 existing stores, including improving layouts and store designs, for example by relocating services such as fitting rooms and tills, plus easier-to-use self-service checkouts in larger checkout areas. Some of its recently refurbished stores include Croydon, Linwood, Bristol Filton, and Dumfries. It marks the first phase of a long-term plan to modernise its store estate over the next three to five years, and comes after the retailer secured £25million of additional funding from investors last month. Matalan will also use the new funding to invest in the launch of a new app. Matalan has around 230 stores across the UK and 50 international branches. James Dorling, Matalan's Property Director, said: 'Matalan storefronts have been a fixture of UK communities for 40 years, so it is only right that bricks-and-mortar retail remains at the centre of our transformation programme. 'With ten exciting new store openings and extensive refurbishments across our estate, this investment marks a step-change in our strategy – creating a better, more seamless shopping experience for our loyal existing customers, while also introducing the Matalan brand to new consumers.' But in less good news, Matalan recently recalled three children's clothes products over fears tots could end up getting strangled. The retailer pulled its blue shark rash vest and shorts, its seersucker swimshorts in blue and boys tie dye swimshorts. If you've purchased one of these products, you should return it to your nearest Matalan for a full refund. You won't need your receipt to get your money back. These items were on sale from January 12, 2025 until March 17, 2025. In a recall notice published by Matalan, the retailer said: 'It has come to our attention that the above Boy's swim shorts do not meet our usual high standards for quality and safety, as there is high possibility of Entrapment and Strangulation with the draw cord. 'As customer safety is our highest priority, we are immediately recalling these swim shorts. If you've bought any of the swim shorts shown above, please do not use the product and return it at your earliest convenience to your nearest Matalan store where our staff will be happy to give you a full refund. 'You will not need to produce a receipt to claim a refund. If you have bought the above for someone else or know someone who has one then please let them know immediately about this notice.'

John Lewis to slim down staff committee to accelerate decisions
John Lewis is preparing to radically slim down an influential staff committee in a bid to accelerate decision-making. The retail giant will cut the size of its partnership council by a quarter from this autumn, meaning the number of staff sitting on the committee will fall from 57 to 43. It forms part of an attempt to bolster turnaround efforts at John Lewis, as bosses scramble to improve productivity. The partnership council is John Lewis's most senior staff committee and forms a crucial pillar of its democratic structure. Staff elected to the council can steer how the partnership is run, including holding regular votes on strategy and having the ability to change its constitution. They are also consulted on issues such as staff bonuses and have a small portion of the total budget to invest in wellbeing benefits. In extreme circumstances, they also have the power to dismiss the chairman. John Lewis is understood to have told staff the planned shake-up has been driven by the fact that its current structure 'relies too heavily on hierarchy and escalation'. Under the planned staff rethink, the partnership will also bring back local forums, which will allow staff across its Waitrose supermarkets and department stores to put forward their views. The changes will come into force from October. It comes as John Lewis kicks ahead with a turnaround push to return the business to 'sustainable' profits, after years of losing ground to rivals. The partnership lost money for three years in a row before returning to profit in 2023. In its most recent accounts for the year to the end of January, profits before tax and exceptional items jumped from £42m to £126m, while sales rose by 3pc to £12.8bn. Jason Tarry, who replaced Dame Sharon White as chairman last year, said John Lewis needed to focus on 'considerable catch-up investment in our stores and supply chain'. John Lewis said it reviewed its democratic model every three years when the council term concluded. A spokesman said: 'This will see a stronger focus on local forums to raise local partner opinion alongside a tighter partnership council to support faster decision making. 'The updates have been made in close consultation with our partners – and the power of our council, and the vital role it plays in governing our business remains unchanged.' Recently, the partnership has been facing mounting pressure to restore its staff bonus, which it axed to focus on improving stores and boosting pay rates. Last year marked the third consecutive year that staff did not receive their partnership bonus, and only the fourth time since 1953. In recent weeks, a petition on the campaign website Organise gained more than 4,000 signatures from workers past and present demanding the bonus be reinstated. A spokesman for John Lewis said: 'Our partners understand that we're focused on improving their base pay and investing to create a sustainable business. 'Our bonus remains an important feature of our employee-owned model, and we confirmed in March that we're determined to reinstate it as quickly as possible. We're proud of our unique benefits package and we want to do even to recognise our brilliant partners.' Broaden your horizons with award-winning British journalism.
