What did Mariah Carey say about new music in 2027?
In an August 31, 2026 report, HOT 97 writer Bryson “Boom” Paul described an encounter with Carey in Beverly Hills. When a fan asked about her “next musical chapter,” Carey replied, “Next year.” HOT 97 interpreted that as a prospect of new music in 2027.
