Yes, there is a sense to her earlier work that is less "fun." Not that that equals "bad," I love those songs in their own way. I recently sat down and actually tried to rank her albums for another forum, and went with this:DisneyFreak5282 wrote: You're not alone. I became a Mariah fan in 2008, and I really prefer her work from 2001 and onward (though Glitter and Charmbracelet don't rank very high for me). I just think her work from the '00s on is more fun. Not to dismiss any of her early work, it's got some great stuff and it's what made her. Then again I might be a little biased because I don't know it all that well.

My favorites from MIAM:TEC are definitely "Make It Look Good," "Thirsty," "Camouflage," "#Beautiful," "It's a Wrap," and "The Art of Letting Go."
I feel the same way, although I have to say I LOVE Mary J. Blige's portion of "It's a Wrap."I would have rather seen "Triumphant" and "Almost Home" in place of the two remixes.
