27. Mariah Carey, E=MC²
Mimi went to R. Kelly School! Here she is, videotaping sex on "Touch My Body"; hankering for a key in her ignition on "I'm That Chick"; cribbing a Da Nang hooker's catchphrase on "I'll Be Lovin' U Long Time"--goodbye butterfly, hello freak. And that's only part of her grooming: She's shorn her lines of melismatic paroxysms, favoring clipped, bouncy phrasing and staccato, minimal beats. It's her sleekest, sultriest record yet.
