In the age of overwrought, overproduced, oversung artpop, Mariah - TopicsExpress



          

In the age of overwrought, overproduced, oversung artpop, Mariah Careys latest ballad is refreshingly straightforward and simple - even if theres no real chorus. The timing of the release of Mariah Careys latest single, The Art of Letting Go, couldnt be more refreshing. It arrives the same day as Lady Gaga’s new album, ARTPOP, a dizzying kaleidoscope of production tricks and vocal ticks. The simplest of ballads, The Art of Letting Go, is a much-needed lesson that great pop music is composed of the most basic group of ingredients - a stellar voice and straightforward orchestrations ... Theres an undeniable throwback vibe to the Rodney Jerkins-produced song that recalls Vision of Love, a ballad stripped down to a piano, heartfelt lyrics, and the vocal pyrotechnics of Mariah. #BOOOOOOOOOM
