Boy (I Need You), Pt. 1 Reviews:
Step in the right direction, but loose the raps.
2003-09-26 - "Boy" was a good single for her and the video did well on MTV, but no one is yet treating her as seriously as they used to. She needs to loose all the rappers. While I am a huge Hip-Hop fan, she needs to realize she is not Ashanti (very mediocore), Beyonce, Mya or Nivea. She is a distinguished, multi-platnum selling diva. I mean, listen to Celine and Whitney's recent albums and then listen to "Boy"! Mariah needs more mature efforts. I do give her props for effectively mixing Cam'rons hit last summer with her tight R&B grooves. However, "Boy" doesnt live up to the "Fantasy" Remix with ODB or "Sweetheart" with JD. Get her earlier stuff instead.

Dance Mariah, Dance
2003-08-22 - Theer is sometimes where an danced up version of a song, or the actual song can not seem to show the true taste of the talent of the artist. In the case of Mariah Carey, she seemed to have it all wrapped all over again. After her tragic breakdown and gossip columns budging, she was ready. Too bad I wish I could say the same thing about the song. As for the most recent song, Boy (I need you), the song really doesn't seem to live to those expectations you'd see from Mariah. Although it seemed easy to catch at first, it stood still and fell down after the second listen. Still, I think that Mariah should try to go back to those ballads soon, like she did with Through The Rain. Maybe people should be reminded of that reason Mariah made it after all, not here.
