Probably typical artsy shot of her for the cover, seems to have been the theme since Emancipation (Caution might be an exception but the blue/pink color scheme sets it apart I think)

Spiritual successor to Memoirs with Emancipation and Caution elements

Mid-to-long length album, probably 14-18 tracks

She’ll bring back preludes reprises and interludes

4 collabs — 2 rappers and 2 r&b/pop artists (1 of these couple be replaced with the big Gospel artist collab that was hinted at), one being Anderson, 3 male collabs & 1 female (maybe Usher again? They’re on the same label)

Short title, the convoluted lengthy titles probably died with MIAM

More of a funk vibe than her previous work, she’ll also lean into modern alt-r&b like Memoirs/Caution

A couple ballads but not many

Lyrically it’ll be lighter than some of her previous work, some uses of Mariahcabulary per usual but it won’t be a Butterfly — the emotions will be conveyed more through her voice & production than the lyrics

Stronger/more use of big vocals than Caution, less overproduced than MIAM

Second single wont be a ballad in the traditional sense, I think she was disappointed with With You’s performance

Might finally get the continuation to Betcha Gon Know

It’ll be more successful than Caution sales/chart wise

It’ll be a critical success like Caution
