Another great review of the song. Who knows, maybe the general public will love this song when it gets more heard...

Mariah Carey "Triumphant (Get 'Em)" Featuring Rick Ross & Meek Mill Song Review — 5 out of 5 stars
Mon, 06 Aug 2012 09:40:15

Mariah Carey's still got the best voice in modern pop, and "Triumphant (Get 'Em)", her brand new single with Rick Ross and Meek Mill, is shimmering and shining proof.

With soulful swagger and classic R&B poise, she delivers the track's stadium-size hook over bombastic, orchestral production. Meek Mill fires off an empowering rhyme over a piano-driven verse as Carey's harmonies color the track vibrantly.

Meanwhile, Rick Ross, at his hottest right after God Forgives, I Don't, stands out as simply infectious and impenetrable. "A don, a diva, the bomb achiever" is like Ross's roll call for the song as he adds, "The game gets deeper". 'Nuff said.

At the center of the song lies one of Carey's biggest hooks. She croons, "Can't fall down, stay triumphant keep on living", and it resounds brilliantly. The words feel utterly a propos, but mostly they signal the return of one of the most "Triumphant" the game has ever scene.

Have you heard the song yet?

Listen to it below!

Triumphant is slaying Asia.

Asian Triumph! They deserve a Mariah tour.

C'mon Europe. Get your act together :roll:

Asia did their part, it's now your turn.
The same goes for you North America, South America and Australia. Don't let Mariah down.

I'm very proud of Czech Republic where the song peaked at #2 on Itunes earlier today.. it's currently ranked 5th.

I listened to "E=MC2" last night for the first time in a while. It's such a well-produced and hit-packed album. How they managed to screw this era up by missing the obvious single choices is beyond me.

Is that Mariah's nipple?

Guys I'm lookin for a megamix of MC's. I know it's really old and it doesn't have any music past Charmbracelet. I know it starts with her saying "I'm trying my best... to be a diva... to be a diva... to be a diva" and then it just runs into Make It Happen/Someday "DON'T LET GOOOO !!" :lol:

"Obvious single choices" is exactly what is still so baffling. I understand how getting married led to her subsequent lack of interest but I don't know why those singles were picked over the obvious ones.

^ I'd pick the same.

There could have been some epic videos for those songs too.

There are no better choices on the album.

Only I'll Be Lovin' U Long Time could have done something too, but after Bye Bye everything died :lol:

Can't wait for the press conference.
Rumor has it: Mariah, Nick jonas and Pharrell.

by **Eamon** » Mon Aug 06, 2012 9:04 pm

It's smart Randy probably won't judge. There would be a conflict of interest because of his relationship with Mariah if he was to remain on the panel.

Mentoring is a good role for him now.

by **Dahling** » Mon Aug 06, 2012 9:04 pm

Mariah and Pharrell would have crazy chemistry I think, judging from the Say Something video. I'm not here for Nick Jonas though :-?

by **xmel05** » Mon Aug 06, 2012 9:10 pm

Pharrell needs to produce music with Mariah

by **andy001** » Mon Aug 06, 2012 9:27 pm

never even heard of nick jonas

Exactly. TMB as a buzz/advance single wasn't bad. But it wasn't in any way enough for lead single.

by **Tobby** » Tue Aug 07, 2012 1:15 am

For me E=MC2 would've been

1)Mirgrate
2)Touch My Body
3)I'll Be Loving You long Time
4)Side Effects

The first traditional balladless single choices. These four songs would've sold the album real well.

Two great blog posts celebration Mariah's hip-hop collaborations:

http://www.complex.com/music/2012/08/a- ... -rappers#1

First link is from a fan(obviously!), and it's pretty cute. Second link is Complex, so hopefully it will have an impact on all the people who are dragging Mariah for Triumphant.
