Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel (by Mariah Carey, Pop)
common sense media says
Pop diva's tunes are clean but lack their usual fire.
parents & educators say
What parents need to know
Parents need to know that the sexiest thing about Mariah Carey remains her skimpily-clad promotion photos: as on past albums, the lyrics in her latest record omit foul language, egregious sexual references, and mention of most other adult content.
Positive role models:
Mariah Carey has been around a long time, achieving (and maintaining) her superstar status yet managing to keep her songs and image fairly clean.
Violence:
Not applicable.
Sex:
Just a few mild references like "I know you want to hit it like the lotto..."
Language:
Only a couple of s-words, but Carey is careful with her language, even going so far as to say "f-ed up" in place of the real f-word.
Consumerism:
A few product specifics, including Jimmy Choo shoes and McDonald's.
Drinking, drugs, & smoking:
One or two mentions of drinking, and, in the song "Obsessed," a reference to "E" (the drug ecstasy).
