Mariah carey's friends soak up new sounds

Tbdmariah090407 Hollywood Rag says Mariah Carey was nice enough to debut her new album — to some friends while they were soaking in a hot tub. And the follow-up to 2005’s The Emancipation Of Mimi is full of some man-hate, it sounds like. 

“I sat in the hot tub the other night playing some songs for some friends and one of them felt it was a very pro-woman kind of thing,” Carey said. “And I was like, ‘You know what, I didn’t do that intentionally.’ But she felt that it was a very empowered-woman moment.”

But the 39-year-old diva insists she’s not holding a grudge against Y chromosomes: “It’s not that the songs are male-bashing. It’s a fun record. I’m writing with a lot of different people, mainly rappers, and I bring something to the table they don’t and vice-versa.”  Soooo ... the producers you brought to the table hate men?
