If Mariah Recorded THIS IS ME......then

What if Charmbracelet sounded like Jlo’s 2003 album??

I only consider the thought because of songs like Yours and I know what you want, Mariah excelled with that. 

What if Mimi had her own “all I have” or “Jenny from the block”/80s funk inspired pop???? would it have SLAYED or was Brigin’ On the heartbreak enough?

Whom? I'd rather have Charmbracelet over an album with 1 hit song and a load of filler.

She already did this twice  And by the second time, people were starting to call her out on repeating the same formula. I don't think it would have smashed. Charmie was doomed to fail.

Elaborate on how it was doomed to fail ( I actually agree)

I just don't think she was ready to come back and people weren't ready to accept her back after her Glitter-era debacle. I don't think the type of music she made was the wrong choice, I just don't think it would have been a success. This was also pandered as a "return" album ("Through the Rain" is a little on the nose) and a lot of her promo for the album talked about getting through her hospitalization and whatnot. I don't think people wanted a "return" Mariah, they wanted a "reimagined" Mariah, which is what they got with TEOM, and probably why it was successful (among other reasons). Idk if I'm making a lick of sense, but I just think 2002 was too quick to try to make a comeback and I can't imagine any type of music change would have made a difference.

 

Not sure if this is relevant, but her voice also wasn't really back in shape for recording the album. She sounded better on the tour than the actual recordings.
