Latto, Mariah Carey – Big Energy (Remix (Official Audio)) ft. DJ Khaled

The iconic female rapper representing Atlanta, Latto, teams up with Mariah Carey for the classic track “Big Energy (Remix) ft.

This one is crafted as a pop-leaning R&B piece, radiating a mood that’s perfect for summer beaches.

Mariah Carey’s whistle register, in particular, even brings a sense of coolness.

It’s also a work that showcases the impressive skill of Khaled, who composed and brought this lineup together.

Mariah – The Door of the Heart (Shinzō no Tobira)

Mariah’s classic 1983 album “Utakata no Hibi,” which was reissued in 2015, has seen a revival thanks to rediscovery by contemporary DJs, including those in Switzerland, particularly the track “Shinzō no Tobira.” The group also collaborated with artists such as Ryuichi Sakamoto and Haruomi Hosono.

Mariah Carey – 100% HD (Music Video + Lyrics)

Even in the 2020s, when you think of a “global songstress,” Mariah Carey is still the first name that comes to mind.

In Japan as well, Mariah’s popularity and recognition are overwhelming.

When it comes to her Olympics-related songs, many might recall the historic classic “Hero,” which TBS used as its theme song during the 2018 PyeongChang Winter Olympics.

This time, let me introduce a track released in 2010 called “100%.” It may be less well known compared to “Hero,” but it was released as a promotional single to support Team USA at the 2010 Vancouver Olympics, and it’s a hidden gem that was not included on any of her studio albums.

It’s an emotional ballad quintessentially Mariah, and the gospel-tinged chorus at the end along with her ultra-high notes are truly breathtaking.

As for what the title “100%” signifies, read the lyrics closely and discover its true meaning!
