Earlier this year Mariah Carey and Brandy sent their respective fans The Lambs and The Starz into a frenzy when they took to Twitter to show admiration to one another and teased a potential collaboration.
Mariah intensified the fire when she revealed weeks later that the two indeed were linking up to make it happen as we told you here.

Now, in a recent interview with Harper’s BAZAAR she dished on getting together with Brandy and re-confirms the song will be arriving soon.
Recently, she and Brandy invited each other into the vocal booth for an as-yet-undisclosed collaboration. (“She was like, ‘Mariah, I love you. I want to do this with you. Can we please do it?’ And I was like, ‘Please? Can we please do it? I’m asking you.’”) Working together like that, says Mariah, is an insight into the multitudes a single artist can hold. “The people have no idea,” says Mariah. “She’s a mother. She’s doing this and that. She is doing it all.”
She also dished on her upcoming project that has been tentatively titled ‘Lounge’ and apparently will be available to stream soon.
Right now, calling into the Lounge, I imagine a more relaxed yet professional air, something akin to what we’ll see in the show she’s been filming in the space, which she hopes to bring to streaming sometime soon. “No one’s ever seen me like this,” she says, describing the vibe as “so unglam.” While she harbors no angst about her other oft-given label, diva—“I’ve been seen as a diva for so long, and that’s not a problem,” she says. “Who cares?”—she expresses concern that “most women aren’t seen as producers.” A window into the Lounge will be a window into Mariah’s craft and direction. “I’m in there in pajamas most of the time and just singing, and it’s just singing and writing and recording and creating.”
